There are some places that become part of your family's story, and Mia's Bakery is one of ours…read more We've been coming since the day it opened on Smith Street, and everything we've tried, the rainbow cookies, the tres leches, the cheesecake, has been wonderful. But this review is about something bigger than dessert. The strawberry cheesecake here reminds me of my mom. It was her favorite, and it was one of the last desserts I got to share with her. Anytime she wanted a sweet treat, that's what she asked for. Ordering it now keeps me connected to her. This past July, on her 3rd birthday in heaven, I placed an order to celebrate her. The menu only had cherry cheesecake that day, so I wrote a note explaining what the strawberry meant to me. The staff didn't just make it happen, they sent an extra slice of strawberry cheesecake on top of it. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare. The people here have always been this kind. We love everyone who works there, and we're grateful for the small moments of care they've shown our family. Thank you for everything.

I wanted to get the carrot cake as opposed to the carrot cheesecake, however, it was sold out. Instead, I purchased the Slice of Red Velvet cake and a slice of Blackout cake. Each slice was approximately $9. Not a terrible price; managed to get two slice of cake for under $20. I love how there is an option to dine in here. There's a full menu of coffee beverage options to choose from and a pastry to pair it with. There are also a variety of decorative cupcakes to choose from as well. I instantly noticed the Knicks championship cupcakes when I walked in. The establishment is relatively small but you can tell that they get great business here. The staff members who I engaged with were pretty nice as well.

The sesame cookie was delicious. I would definitely go back again if I'm in the area or try the other location in Manhattan.

I called Ms. Angela last minute, and she went above and beyond to help me. She was incredibly kind and understanding, and to my surprise, she was able to provide me with a fresh Black Cake right away! The moment my daughter and I tasted it, we knew we had found something special. The cake is rich, moist, and perfectly spiced. Every bite is full of authentic flavor and pure delight. You can truly taste the love and tradition baked into it. Not only did I walk away with a great Black Cake but I also left feeling grateful for such warm and thoughtful customer service. I will absolutely be ordering again. Thank you, Ms. Angela. You have a lifelong customer!

That said, I found out today that ordering to-go coffee runs through a different counter, and honestly the barista there was so unpleasant that I won't order out again.

Still worth it for the pastries and the sit-in service but the to-go counter needs some attention.
