    Slices menu
    Mimi R.

    Hands down the best cheesecakes ever!! Praline is the most popular and for good reason. Absolutely decadent and delicious. Sweet potato was also good. I got both for different holiday events and they were a hit with everyone! They sell whole cheesecakes in 3 different sizes but they also have daily slices as well. A slice is $9, the smallest pie is $35 so it's much cheaper to do a whole pie. The slices come on a cheap plastic plate wrapped in Saran Wrap, like cafeteria style. The slices I've tried so far: Golden Oreo: tastes like a regular cheesecake tbh. Strawberries and cream: I'm pretty sure they made a mistake and gave me a plain slice because there was absolutely no indication of strawberry visually or taste wise either. Chocolate brownie: super dense and decadent. 10/10.

    Best N the world

    There's no question it is expensive per slice so I usually end up buying a whole pie and eating half of it. Unfortunately the cost of everything has doubled and there are a small business so they don't get anything discounted with the expenses that they have they either charge the prices or go out of business. I love every pie they have the Keylime is my favorite. I just hope they can continue with the small staff that they have putting out great ingredients. Thank you for always putting such great ingredients. Makes all the difference in the world.

    Highly recommended cheesecake specialty shop with over 60 gourmet cheesecake flavors. We tried the praline cheesecake. The cheesecake was luxuriously creamy--rich yet incredibly smooth and silky. The crust had a crisp, satisfying crunch, and the praline filling with its nutty topping brought everything together into a truly perfect cheesecake.

    Sweet potato and key lime cheesecakes

    Living up North, I looked forward Thanksgiving holidays in Southern California with family because Harriet's praline cheesecake would be the star of the dessert table. In town for an unexpected weekend and decided to introduce them to Harriet's. Ms. Robin, Ms. Harriet's daughter was at the bakery the day we went. Too many amazing options per usual, so we went with the key lime and sweet potato cheesecake slices. Absolutely delicious! Rich, sweet, creamy, flavorful, perfect texture, all the boxes were checked!

    Strawberry cheesecake and Mango lime cheesecake
    Mari G.

    If you're looking for some good homemade cheesecake Harriet's is the best place! It is located in a small plaza. My first time here I could not decide on a cheesecake. One of the employees informed me that any cheesecakes with a pin next to it on the menu board was sold out. There was probably about 20 different flavors listed. The lady helping my friend and I was so patient with us. She took time to explain what toppings where on each cheesecake and her recommendations. We both decided to get 2 cheesecake flavors a piece. I got a strawberry and mango lime. My friend got a strawberry and banana pudding. The cheesecakes are $9 piece. They are so worth it. The texture, flavor, and toppings were immaculate. I managed to finish my cheesecake slices in one setting. Each flavor tasted like exactly what they were. My friend stated the banana pudding cheesecake is phenomenal and she had never tasted anything like it. We plan to come back here very soon and try some more flavors. I am so happy I found a new dessert shop. This was a great recommendation from my coworker.

    I'm a stickler for the perfect cheesecake CRUST and the classic cheesecake is near perfection. Once every few birthdays I get a whole Harriet's cheesecake to indulge in by myself. Every time, it's great! Definitely still making my way through the menu, but the classic will always be a solid, consistent, go-to. Also can recommend the white chocolate raspberry and praline cheesecake. Ms. Robin was so sweet. I called to place my order two days ahead and it was seamless. You can feel her warm spirit through the phone. She also called me the day of and made sure I was coming to get my order as I was a bit late lol. Now I can't say much for the ambiance. Harriet's is a tiny, old, staple, and very much in its original form or close to it. They do deserve a renovation, but the kitchen looks spacious and the cheesecakes are worth coming to town for so I wouldn't change a thing.

    Praline cheesecake
    Jenny Z.

    Called to order a cheesecake, but they unfortunately don't do any holds and it would be first come first serve. The lady on the phone was nice to let me know how many of each cheesecake were available though! Not sure about the inside or seating options since my bf went to pick up. Their menu had a variety of cheesecakes which was intriguing. I opted for their top seller praline cheesecake. It had plenty of nuts and was creamy, but the crust was falling apart, a bit soggy, and didn't have that slight crunch I was looking. Also a bit too sweet in my opinion. For $35 and same day pick up, it was a decent cheesecake if you're in need for one, but I would probably try a different flavor.

    Grabbed some cheesecake slices.   French Vanilla, Lemon & Oreo cookie.
    Carrie H.

    Picked up some slices for my husband's birthday. Which were Oreo cookies n cream, Lemon & French vanilla. I must say the lemon is my most favorite! If you love lemon like me. It's a must try. There were all very delicious!! The cheesecakes are not too sweet. Which is a plus for us. It's very creamy & decadent. Cute little grab & go cheesecake shop. Robin is always welcoming :)

    8-inch Vanilla Cheesecake decorated at home
    Denise K.

    For my daughter's graduation party, I used Yelp to find a good cheesecake, and I'm so thankful! My daughter and I love to support local businesses, so Harriet's Cheesecakes was a welcome find! I called first to confirm that I could pick up an 8-inch cheesecake the same day and dashed over to Inglewood and got the last Vanilla Cheesecake! I decorated it at home with flowers and writing gel - it was delightful and sooooo delicious. It was light, not too sweet, and the crust was perfect! For the 9-inch or larger size, order at least a day or two in advance and choose from a wide variety of flavors listed on their website.

    Banana Pudding cheesecake
    Dat L.

    Banana pudding my favorite (lady's rec) 9.5/10 Praline, a bit too rich for me 7/10 Cookies and Creme, initial taste tasted a bit like butter popcorn. Not bad, just interesting flavor note to taste. 7/10 Lady was super kind and hospitable. Would recommend. Get what she recommends!!!

    Strawberry n cream slice
    Bianka C.

    This review is long over due! Have been coming here for years, and their cheesecakes are absolutely amazing!! I have ordered whole pies for birthdays and gatherings and they are always a hit! Our go to is their Praline cheesecake, it's so delicious and can't recommend it enough!! And they take card payments now so that's a plus!!

    George T.

    I came specifically for the Key Lime Pie, and it turned out amazing. Then you tried the Praline, the Turtle, and the Snicker flavors, all of which were equally good. These cheesecakes are so good, you might need to burn off some of that indulgence with a run--totally worth it! I'd give them a solid five cheesecakes out of five. You can't go wrong with anything you choose at Harriet's!

    It tasted so good that I forgot to take the photos FIRST!  LOL
    Vickie A.

    This is the BEST freakin' cheesecake I've EVER had!! OMG! I was taken here yesterday for the first time by a lover of these cheesecakes who was shocked I'd never heard of them, or tasted it. I am sooo happy to have discovered (via my guy ...LOL) this place. It's very unassuming. Just a walk-in and order from a chalkboard of the available cheesecakes of that day ranging from $9 a slice to $36 (completely worth it cause every bite is better than the previous one. So while, I'm grateful to have found (out about) Harriet's, I'm not so sure my hips and thighs are gonna appreciate it cause I'm hooked now! Yum!! (btw, I saw some other reviews from years ago saying they are cash only but evidently, Harriet's is with the program cause my friend paid for ours with his Apple Pay.)

    Slice of Turtle Cheesecake.  Bomb!

    All of the cheesecakes are incredible but their classic vanilla cannot be topped. It's the best cheesecake I've ever had.

    Ask the Community - Harriet's Cheesecakes Unlimited

    Planning a trip from up North to Harriet's again and want to have BBQ for dinner. Does anyone know the name of the BBQ place next door, if it's still there?

    Yes, it’s still there! It’s called Phillips Bar B Que.

    Is this business still open?

    Yes

    How long do they last, say if I picked up Wed and wanted to serve it Friday?

    Yes, you can absolutely pick it up 2 days in advance. The cheesecake will still be delicious.

    What days and hours is it open? Website seems to no longer be working.

    I believe it's Tues-Saturday 10-6. But you can always call to verify.

    How many calories does one slice of praline cheesecake have? (I understand it's going to be high, but I just want to know. Haha)

    This is a cheat day cheesecake. I wouldn't count calories on this one unless you're doing some sort of calorie challenge.

    Is the new payment system ready to use at this very moment? If not, when?

    Cash only

    Do they take Apple Pay or debit, or is it cash only?

    Hello, we are currently cash only, however, we will be introducing our new payment system shortly. We look forward to seeing you soon.

    Do they have sugar free cheesecakes?

    No not here, try Sugar Free Market or Juniors online. Yelp would lead the way for you on that.

    Does anyone know ANY other cheesecake/pie stores that can make the praline pie?! I did not expect them to sell out 2 whole weeks before Thanksgiving and this was suppose to be my dish :/

We found Artelice by watching Garett eats on YouTube and we had to try them out! The gentleman in the front that help us was very nice and even gave us some free macaroons.

The mango one was my favorite since I enjoyed the real fruit and their dubai was actually pretty damn good. and I ate the green one with the flower and cannot remember the flavor but all of the treats we got were so so worth the price and hype.

Not sure if there is a consistent long line every weekend since it was a holiday, but my initial thought was either this place has really good pastries and cakes or it can be just all hype. As we made it in, you order as you walk down the selection of pastries then to the cakes. I ordered a danish with strawberries, chocolate croissant, almond croissant, tiramisu, and a yuzu cake. At the end we were pleasantly told our order came with two complimentary macarons so we got the cookoes and cream and passionfruit. Afterwards, we sat at the store to try the danish since we were hungry. Have to say it measures up to another one of my favorite patisseries that is located in Del Mar called Clemente. The danish texture was soft yet super flakey, and the thin layer of vanilla cream to strawberry ratio was perfection. It's so hard to find places that have exceptional quality croissant pastries, but this place is on the top of our list for LA. We enjoyed the cakes at home afterwards, but everything was so delicious. Unfortunately we forgot to take oir own ice packs and took a minute to get back home so the cakes slightly melted, but even after putting them in the fridge to enjoy later, they were so good! Highly recommend Artelice if you're looking for

I rolled the dice on the Good Cake Company for a very, very, very important occasion--my grandbaby's second birthday. Here's the wild part: I'd never tasted her cakes! The day I placed the order, I was on day three of a five‑day fast. No samples. No safety net. Just and--if I'm being honest--a little prayer. If you're short on time, I'll get straight to it: her cakes are exceptional! Now, if you're still reading, here's what truly sets them apart: you actually get cake! I am DONE paying top dollar only to slice into a cake that's mostly buttercream and crumbly cake. (I really want to name names! I am thinking of two very "popular" bakeries that are all hype and marketing. ugh) The cake was fabulous--perfectly moist, NOT TOO SWEET, yet sturdy enough to support a generous layer of high‑quality cream cheese frosting in the middle and buttercream on top. My daughter doesn't even like cake. She loved this one. I love this pastry chef--her spirit, her craftsmanship, her product. I'm already looking forward to ordering again. So run--do not walk--to this bake shop. She has a customer for life.
