    Excellent, tasty, freshly made Italian sandwiches and cookies (and desserts). Try the Italian Grinder, a mix of several meats with cheese on freshly baked bread. Very satisfying, fresh, delicious--wonderful and hit the spot for a super lunch. Friendly people inside. Gargaro's is so unassuming. A yellow house with a small sign. No place to sit. Just order your meal and go somewhere else to eat it. Well worth the visit. Can't wait to go back.

    Cute little mom and pop shop. With all that's going on in the world, gave me a nice homey feeling. There isn't any dining inside or outside, strictly cash and carry. It's so easy to call in and place your order, unlike some of the crazy online ordering set ups I've experienced using here lately. I had the Spicy Sausage calzone and believe me it was Spicy. I enjoy a kick but I'll be ordering the mild next time. Whew, I think my ears are still blowing smoke! Honestly, I had to pick the peppers off and it was still plenty spicy. The flavor was good and the calzone definitely hit the spot. Very humble and unassuming just the bread, sausage, peppers and a small serving is marinara. For a light bite after, I selected the Chocolate Chip cannoli. A pure delight with its light and flaky crust filled with tiny chips and whipped cream. The exact amount of sweet without being sugary. I plan on stopping by again, next time I'm in the area. Just be warned, you better like it hot if you go spicy.

    GetRight's Bakery doesn't need more hype, but it absolutely lives up to it…read more My girlfriend and I stopped in on a whim this past weekend while checking out a few spots in the area. I had it saved but couldn't quite remember why...until we turned the corner and saw a line out the door around noon on a Sunday. Normally that might be a dealbreaker, but once we saw the food coming out, we were all in, it looked way too good to pass up. The menu is stacked: everything from sweet pastries to savory sandwiches and even pizzas on what looked like fresh, fluffy focaccia. I went with the prosciutto sandwich (prosciutto, cheese, pesto on focaccia), and it was incredible--simple, fresh, and packed with flavor. My girlfriend had the ham sandwich on a baguette, which was just as good. We were also tempted by the turkey and some seasonal options, so we'll definitely be back to try more. We couldn't leave without grabbing a couple pastries. The almond croissant was a hit (my girlfriend saved it for the next morning and loved it), and the standout for me was the cinnamon white chocolate cookie--kind of like a snickerdoodle but with white chocolate chips. Easily a top tier cookie. Between the quality, variety, and how clearly everything is made with care, this place jumped straight to the top of my list. Worth the wait, worth the hype, and absolutely worth a return trip.

    You certainly shouldn't come here in the late hour of their business hours because you will most…read morelikely get lucked out on so many of the popular items they sell. I sure was one of them today as when I stepped in it was past 2pm. What I had in mind was (of course) all gone which forced me to go some alternative option. I hence ended up with one of the vanilla custard buns and the gouda baguettes. Did I regret? Nope, it is quite the opposite of it. The vanilla custard bun was simply the right size for me (I not too long ago had just had my late breakfast so I was still quite full from it.) Perfectly brown on some of the custard on top. This Portuguese style dessert is a staple at any bakery or dessert shop. It's moist and yet the flaky out layers made the perfect sound as I bit into it. As of this writing, I haven't had the baguette yet but I can only imagine how delicious it would be (as the kind lady upfront was telling other customer that.) For a great business like GetRight's, I do the drive to get to it from my southeast Denver home. It's my utmost duty to support them.

Mark also made it easy to keep the gender a secret from me. Him and I discussed the cake details, and then I had a friend texted him with the results to make sure it was still a surprise for me.

The cake was the perfect level of sweetness and packed with flavor from carrots, walnuts, raisins, and spices (and I'm sure much more). Usually I am not a big fan of layer cakes because of all of the icing but it was just enough, a great consistency, and completely complimented the flavor of the cake. I also loved the simple decorations on the top! A friend of mine picked up the cake and he and my boyfriend said that from start to finish Mark was great to work with. I should note that my boyfriend lives in Austin, TX so it means even more to me that the process went so smoothly. Thanks Meraki! I should also mention that after transportation to a few different locations and 3 days of sitting in my fridge, the cake is still sooo delicious! I took the inside cake picture after all of that too.

I bought a raspberry mousse and attempted to eat it and the first bite tasted like it had been sitting next to meat in a refrigerator for days. The mousse itself left a waxy coating on my tongue. The icing shell did the same. The Mille-Feuille was over cooked and had old whipped cream inside and on top. The waxy coating of the tongue occurred there too. The strawberry atop the dessert was so old I believe it would have been an issue for the health department. I couldn't eat or drink any of it. I am appalled by what they sold me. This place charges quite a bit for the trash they serve up. AVOID. The owner accused me of lying after I wrote the above review on google. Instead of apologizing for the $50 I essentially set on fire, they denied and lied. Makes me question the legitimacy of the positive reviews. Then denied they use syrup in their lemonade? Not sure about you but have "natural" ingredients ever turned your juice bright red without any pulp? To the owner: Precisely! Why would I write a lie? It makes no sense to concoct lies when I have literally nothing to gain from it.

I waited until they opened on Wednesday (closed Monday and Tuesday) and made my way over shortly after they opened at 8am. There were only a few people in line, so it honestly was perfect timing. I was shocked with how many options there were. Many types of bread, pastries, etc. Honestly, it was a little overwhelming trying to make the right decision! They also have coffee and matcha. I ended up getting a loaf of bread, a savory danish, a lemon sugar cookie, and the coffee cake to share with my partner. We ate the danish and coffee cake for breakfast and saved the cookie for dessert in the evening. Everything was delicious!! I can't wait to go back and try more pastries!

I'm from Chicago and I've tried every other "top-rated" bakery here, and honestly... none of them even come close. The staff is amazing. I stopped in a few minutes before closing once and instead of being annoyed, they were super nice and even gave me a free coffee cake, which was delicious. The maple morning bun is my #1 ride or die. I'm not even a pastry girl, but this thing is unreal. It's not too heavy, not overly sweet, perfectly crunchy and flaky, soft in the middle, just absolute perfection. Everything I've tried has been amazing: maple morning bun, monkey bread, coffee cake, cinnamon rolls. I still think about those cinnamon rolls and really hope they bring them back soon! Fair warning though: you have to get there early. If you're not an early riser, find someone who is or you will miss out. Lucky for me, my husband wakes up wayyy earlier than any normal person and always gets me a treat!
