Had the BEST cinnamon roll today at All About the Cinnamon!…read more My mother is 90 years old, from the South, and unfortunately isn't able to make her famous cinnamon rolls anymore. I ordered the classic "Big Papa" today, and it reminded me so much of hers that it actually brought tears to my eyes. That's about the highest compliment I can give! They also have some really creative flavor combinations, so of course I had to try a few: Classic Big Papa -- 10/10 Caramel Pecan -- 10/10 Reese's Peanut Butter Cup -- 8.5/10 Everything was fresh, delicious, and clearly made with care. All About the Cinnamon is an absolute MUST-TRY. If you love a really good, homemade-style cinnamon roll, you need to check this place out!

I'm going to need a Straight Outta Oven parody sign because these are FRESH!…read more The vibe is an homage to Angeleno culture highlighting sports and pop culture. But the real feature is how they roll; that is the cinnamon roll! The options are endless the but I'm a sugar avoidant lady and I need the vegan options. Which thankfully they are prepared for on the vegan part...just let them know. I forgot to let them know and ended up purchasing two giving the non-vegan one to a friend that would enjoy it. The staff were great, listened well and communicated I had to wait 15 min for the vegan cinnamon rolls to be ready which wasn't an issue for me they let me know and gave me the option to wait! To lower the sugar I modified my order by omitting the glaze and going with the Marathon that has a blueberry compote and holding the brown sugar crumble. I'm very happy with the ability to modify and reduce the sugar and the staff had no issue or hangups abo. Are the cinnamon rolls sweet? Yes these are everything you would expect from a precision crafted cinnamon roll! it was a little intense for me but not bad! The roll was fresh from the oven. The sugar was perfectly caramelized. The cinnamon pops with quality! The bread has a subtle chew then melts in your mouth. HOW TF US THE BREAD MELTING IN MY MOUTH!!!! Like I take a bite it's a perfect bread soft soft slight crisp not chewy then it recedes to reveal the full spectrum of flavor. Perfection 10 out of 10 on baking skill! The cinnamon rolls are big and the blueberry compote was fresh! I ate half of my roll before a gig (45 min) left it in my car, then came back to eat the second half and the blueberries were starting to ferment. That was my bad as the temp in the car caused that process to kick off but yes CONFIRMED you are paying the prices for premium FRESH ingredients and it's well worth the cost! $12 for the regular Marathon cinnamon roll $13 with a $1 add on for the the vegan Marathon cinnamon roll. Total $25 for two large Marathon cinnamon rolls!

Blueberry matcha is my fave with peach a close second. And I will tell everyone who will listen about the glorious combo.

Only had one high chair, not stroller friendly. Food & service is both acceptable and average…read more Update : there are stairs within the restaurant that make it non stroller friendly. (Only 2 but it still makes it a bit difficult) It's doable- but lots of moms make these decisions based on these types of details. Another patron helped us with the stairs on the way down. I said service and food was fine; both average. Nothing above nothing below. Totally fine. We asked for two high chairs and were told there was only one. I said ok we have two babies, & that was the whole conversation. it was fine we managed. If the owner has a toddler I would assume she's been to coffee with a friend and appreciated the cafe having more than one seating option for the babies. No one said anything about borrowing from Bacari.

Such a cute spot! This has become one of my favourite bakeries in LA. Compared to other bakeries,…read moreArtelice has really honed in on their French technique. I think I've tried half of the menu here lol. My go to is definitely the New York roll and the mango passion fruit cruffin. I love that they change their New York roll flavours often. What really stood out for me was how well balanced the flavours are in their fillings, especially in the New York roll and the cruffin. They also do really well with their citrus combos like the cruffin, exotic or the mango eclair. I wish there was more custard in their fruit danish and sometimes the croissants aren't as soft, possibly a little overcooked. But the pastry on the cruffin was one of the softest and most delicate I've ever had. The macarons are also great especially the yuzu, passionate, hazelnut and raspberry flavours.

A lot of different croissant options. The fillings weren't as tasty as described. Kind of a let…read moredown. Latte's are alright. They have some tasty syrup choices. I think this place is more ideal for their pretty decorated desserts. Which I'm not into. The cups and boxes are so girly and pretty too. Great for taking these pastries as a gift when going somewhere.

My husband and I had a fantastic breakfast at Natas Pastries the other day…read more We found this restaurant online after looking for a bakery that sells pastéis de nada. My husband fell in love with them in Portugal and he's been craving them ever since we got home. I'm happy to say that the pastéis de nada at Natas Pastries are just as delicious as the ones we had in Portugal. Their other breakfast food was delicious as well. I had the All American Breakfast, and the potatoes were incredible! My husband had the Breakfast Burrito with linguiça, and he loved it! We sat outside on the patio, which is a lovely place to enjoy a meal, and all of the staff was so friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back to try other things on the menu, as well as more pastéis de nada!

We had had dinner at a restaurant about a block away. I'm always looking to try different bakeries…read moreand saw that Natas was close by and still open. It's usually hard to find a bakery that is still open after 6 pm. I decided to try a variety of pastries and ordered an apple strudel, chocolate covered peanut butter bar and a large chocolate chip cookie. They had a very wide selection to choose from. My daughter ordered a lemon bar, slice of lemon cake and a small chocolate chip cookie. My first impression of the desserts that I chose was that they were sweet. I could feel the graininess of the sugar in the chocolate covered peanut butter bar. The strudel was tasty but light on the apple filling. Between the chocolate chips and sugar the cookie was sweeter than what I usually like but still a good cookie. I tried my daughter's lemon bar and I liked it. The things I tried I'm thinking 3 stars, my daughter liked the things she bought so averaging it out maybe a solid 3.5 stars rounded up to a generous 4 stars. Service was okay. Natas has a wide variety of pastries. I think the other items on the menu are more well received. I'll need to go back next time I am in town to try out some of other menu items.

The shop offers limited indoor seating but some tables in the outside also. It is super cute. Menu is plentiful with lots of unique options. I loved all the Filipino nods. The barista who took our order was nice and gave recommendations given that it was our first time there. We ended up with a mango matcha and pandan latte. YUM!!!

Finally tried SusieCakes after hearing so much about it, and I can see why it has such a following…read more The frosting is definitely the star of the show here. Their buttermilk frosting is so rich, creamy, and smooth with just the right amount of sweetness. The cake itself is pretty good, but honestly feels more like a vessel for all that delicious frosting rather than the main attraction. I tried the chocolate cupcake with vanilla icing, the coconut cupcake, and the chocolate cupcake with coffee icing. The chocolate with vanilla icing was my favorite by far. The chocolate cake had a nice flavor and paired really well with the thick, creamy vanilla frosting. The coconut cupcake was also good, especially if you like coconut, although the cake itself was a little stodgy and dense compared to what I was expecting. The chocolate with coffee icing was good as well, and I liked the slightly richer coffee flavor with the chocolate cake. Overall, I thought SusieCakes lived up to the hype, especially if you're someone who loves frosting. I think the frosting is what really makes these cupcakes stand out, while the cake portions are good but not necessarily amazing on their own. I'd definitely come back to try some of their other flavors, but I'd especially want to try more of the cupcakes with their buttermilk frosting.

I have heard so much about this place and wanted to try it myself to make my own determination based on my own experience. Loved it from the minute I entered, until the minute I exited. Got there at 5pm and was helped by Kayla with a pretty smile. She wanted to see how she could help and what was it that I wanted. I got 2 nice sized cupcakes. One Coconut flavor, with delicious frosting, and the other one Red Velvet. Two of my favorite cupcakes. They make everything from scratch at their bakery. They have vegan, gluten free options and also regular options. They have a great selection of cakes, cupcakes, cookies, candles, and you can customize your cake or any other types of dessert in your own way. Place was very beautiful, clean, including all the windows. It doesn't have indoor seating. Got my cupcakes and left. Both flavors were so fresh and delicious. I took a bite of each. It was just a tad bit too sweet for me, but still delicious. Next time I'm willing to try the vegan or gluten free varieties. Other bakeries usually put way too much frosting on the cupcakes and it overpowers the taste of the cake for me. This was just perfect. Next time when there is a special occasion, I will NOT hesitate to order from this lovely, cute, quaint bakery. Thank you all..:-)

They use Onyx (from what i noticed), and the sound of the milk being steamed sounded silky (-: ! I think saw they used a bottomless portafilter ? Might have mis-seen. But for those unfamiliar, bottomless doesn't divide your shots into two physical shots. so it looks like "one" shot. but it would be 2 shots if it had that attachment. Shots are dialed by weight, so your coffee will be consistent! The layout of the cafe is nice: entry/line formation moves in a counter clockwise motion. Allows customers to enter space and wait in line while leaving space for people to exit/ wait to pick up their drink. First come, first serve for pastries - expect this for freshness purposes. Drink and their components are measured for consistency and quality control. Wait is subjective in relation to volume at the time which you go. Came in at about 1:30 PM on a Sunday (today was 8/16). Curated menu for their specialty drinks that aligns with their identity. Standard menu for espresso based beverages. Great selection for their Single Origin menu. Roasters they use align with those they highlight on their shelves for retail as a multi-roaster cafe. Ordered a Columbia from Hydrangea - enjoyed thoroughly! When it was still quite hot you get the heavy aroma and flavor of the pastry notes in the coffee. Then more tea-like once it cools down more. Coldbrew in the Woodman did not feel like your typical bold-in-flavor base. Which I think works for the inclusions in the beverage. Not your typical/second wave coffee shop. It's cool to see shops want to bridge that gap between fun drinks and specialty coffee! Kudos to Lynx!

Loyal Customer, but This Experience May Have Lost My Business…read more I've been a loyal customer of 85°C Bakery Cafe in Sherman Oaks for quite some time and buy virtually all of my baked goods here, so it's disappointing to write this review. Yesterday August 6th was my dad's 99th birthday, and I wanted to make it special. At around 10 a.m., I ordered his birthday cake through the app for a 4 p.m. pickup and used the customization option to request "Happy Birthday" writing on the cake. I arrived around 4:30 p.m. and initially there was no one at the counter. I could see an employee off to the side drinking a coffee. He saw me waiting but didn't acknowledge me and instead went to the back and sent out another employee. From the moment she came out, the interaction was surprisingly unpleasant. I explained that I was picking up the birthday cake I had ordered that morning and gave her my name. She retrieved the box and then abruptly asked, "Where's your confirmation?" I explained that I wasn't sure what she needed because I only had the email I received. I showed it to her, and after looking at it for quite a while, she said "fine" and pushed the cake box toward me. I asked whether the Happy Birthday message I requested was on the cake. She said no and that the person who does the writing wasn't there. I explained that I had placed the order that morning specifically for my dad's 99th birthday and really wanted the birthday message included. I showed my request on the order email. Instead of trying to resolve it, she began helping other customers while I was left standing there. After waiting and explaining that I was already late for my dad's birthday, she eventually went to the back, returned with a small chocolate "Happy Birthday" piece, and placed it on top of the box. That solution was perfectly fine with me--I just wish it had been handled graciously from the beginning. I then asked for a cake cutter and candles, which employees here have routinely offered with cake purchases in the past. Again, I was ignored while other customers were helped. When I repeated that I was late and needed to leave, she rolled her eyes and told me to wait until she was finished with another customer. Eventually she brought them over and simply piled everything on top of the cake box rather than putting the items in a bag. Everyone can have a bad day, and I try to be understanding of that. But the dismissive attitude, eye rolling, repeatedly ignoring me in the middle of our interaction, and general lack of courtesy were unacceptable. What should have been a simple and happy pickup for my dad's 99th birthday became unnecessarily stressful and put a real damper on my afternoon. What makes this particularly disappointing is that I wasn't an occasional customer--I've been very loyal to this bakery. I love the baked goods and have consistently chosen 85°C over other bakeries. But customer service matters too, and after this experience I'm seriously considering finding another bakery for our family's cakes and baked goods.
