I was excited to try this place. The coffee was okay, not much to write home about. I got the…read morecroissant with ham inside and cheese on top, I forgot what the official name is called. The ham barely had any flavor. The cheese was okay. Maybe it would have been better if they heated it up? Overall, there was not that much flavor to the pastry. The cheese also touches your nose awkwardly as you're eating, and there's not much flavor that it adds. For the filling/bread ratio and the price point, I would not get this pastry again. There is usually a line in the morning and might be hard to find a seat during weekends. I heard that their shortbread cookies and macarons are good. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing!

I've been on an absolute tear with scoping in on the best pizzas in Seattle, and it came as no…read moresurprise to me that one of my top spots is primarily a French bakery. Alexandra's may be known for slinging out beautiful Macarons, but you all know I'm only here for the beautiful pies that they ONLY make on Thursdays. The pizza professionals here are certified chillers. They made me want to open up my own bakery, but there's no way that I could be as cool as them (or bake good food). We pulled up to take our pizzas to go, and we were frozen in place after the viewing the strikingly gorgeous cakes on display. It was destiny telling us that we indeed needed dessert that night, so we decided to order one of both. Little did we know that they were about to give us the largest slices of cake we've ever seen - they lasted 3 nights! But let me tell you about the pizzas. Both of these were out of this world, and so creative. French onion soup on a pizza? That is genius. They're taking the best elements of the dish, but making it into pizza instead of soup. Who wouldn't want that? And then they had a summer special with a white sauce, squash and ricotta. A wonderfully light pizza, but with HEAVY flavor. Everyone always told me growing up that the crust is the best part of pizza. I never understood that, it just seemed like a strange lie that was perpetuated by Big Bread. But Alexandra's has made me a believer in Crust Nation. The bake on this pie is one of the best I've EVER had anywhere. I actually wanted more crust after I was done. Now I want pizza every Thursday!

The lemon one was fantastic with new types of filling. The apricot one was yummy as well. The watermelon was surprisingly not as good as we had hoped, it tasted a bit like watermelon candy. The oatmeal cookie was delicious albeit a touch more cinnamon than I prefer. The espresso fudge was amazing. Such a great treat if you're in the area!

It smells so wonderful and warm when you enter and it's really a feast for your eyes. Everything looks so delicious and it's hard to choose. The staff was ver patient with me. My "go to" is the most famous twice baked almond croissant. On this visit ordered the "go to" , blueberry ginger scone, ratatouille sandwich, turkey havarti sandwich, banana bread, and some Americanos to go. This is not a sit down cafe so we thoroughly enjoyed them in the parked car. :) Every bite should be savored. Extraordinary!

Bakery Nouveau no longer has anywhere to sit, so it is purely a to-go location. The barista was…read morekind enough to suggest sitting at a bench at Kaiser Permanente, across the street. I am not sure how to rate this bakery. I bought two items. The pear tart was excellent. The crust was rich, dense and sweet, and the frangipane filling was perfect, with slices of pear layered on top. The chocolate croissant, on the other hand, was beautiful but almost flavorless. Averaging on high score and one low brings me to 3 stars.

You can still hear and enjoy the music from inside the shop. The shop is super cute inside! Very friendly staff. She was very helpful, too. She explained the flavors, her favorites and ones I should try. There were way too many good ones to choose from. They have a deal for $7 to get a macaron and a glass of champagne. That's incredibly cheap, and the champagne was really good. The macarons are just about the best I've ever had. Every flavor tasted exactly like it was labeled as. I got a bunch to try, and I loved every one. Definitely give those place a try. I want to come back and bring friends! And I need to try the famous pb brownie next time.

Next time we'll try their macaroons, which look fantastic. The ambiance of the dessert cafe was very chilled and relaxed. The decor, with green, pink, and white paint, a chandelier in the front, and some quirky touches such as a leopard skin stool, really worked. The woman who served our order was incredibly warm and friendly and helped make our visit there a delight. Definitely a place I will visit again.

Came around 1-2pm on a weekend and they still had a full pastry case! I always love seeing that…read morelater in the day since some other cafes are getting empty around that time. They have so many yummy options, but I settled on a mushroom and Gruyère pastry and an earl grey blueberry cruffin. The mushroom and Gruyère pastry was SO good!!! Buttery flaky layers of dough with a strong earthy mushroom flavor and savory cheese - an absolute umami bomb. We ate it the day after and threw it in the air fryer for a couple of minutes, and it was so delicious. The cruffin was huge! Topped with a delicious light Earl grey cream that wasn't too sweet. It was filled with a blueberry cream and was definitely very filling. There's a lot of sugar coating it, as is standard with cruffins, but it's a nice sweet treat. Definitely coming back for the mushroom and Gruyère pastry and to try their other delicious flavors. Their supreme croissant flavor switches often and we can't wait to try the next one! One of the best bakeries I've been to in Seattle so far.

I suggested that it would be helpful to put their leadtime for the cakes somewhere--either on yelp or on their website.

Today I finally got to try Rosellini's Maritozzi! I knew they have it on random weekends but I…read morenever went in early enough to get one myself until today. They offered the item on both days this weekend and again I missed it on Saturday. I asked the front person what time I should get to the bakery in order not to miss it, and she recommended that I come in right at the opening. She said they ran out of it some time past 11am on Saturday, so it seems like they don't necessarily go flying off the counter immediately. Although I was curious, I still wasn't sure if I'd make it in time for opening at 8am the next day. But I was housesitting nearby and the dog woke me up at 6:30 begging to go on a walk. Not wanting to waste the fact that I woke up early on a Sunday, I decided to not go back to bed but head to the bakery at 8am. I arrived like 2-3 minutes before opening and was surprised to see there were already more than ten people lined up at the bakery. Having worked a retail job, my coworkers and I get annoyed when people start lining up before opening, so I tried my best to arrive right on time. But the line was a bit much. Anyways, I respect that everyone working at the bakery doesn't seem one bit offended by the crowd and are so nice to the customers. Consequently, I'm glad I went for the Maritozzi. It was really good. But if it's this difficult to get one then I probably won't go for it again.

There are different seating areas for you to choose from depending on what you want from the experience.

When we sat down to eat the treat we had picked out we sampled the macaroons in her gift box and everything was positively perfect!!!!!!! The treats have a flavor that wraps you in delicious buttery melted cookies and filling that is so light and delightful you want to savor every bite!!!!!!!!!
