    Dominican cake and tres leches
    Iris O.

    Expensive and not that good. I was in the mood for Dominican cake. I got 1 slice it was $4.50 and dry and does not taste like DR cake at all. It's plain no filling. The 3 leches was a lot better small for $5 I won't go back so still looking for a good place for Latin sweets.

    You can tell from the caring service that this is a family owned bakery. It shows that they care. You can tell once you taste the goods, as well. Really fresh and delicious.

    Pastellilo de guava

    I'm very disappointed, I been going there for years. I go every week to get guava Pastelillos and ever since they raised it to $10.00 a box they got cheap on the guava. All you taste is the puff pastry,

    Strawberry and peaches tres leches was excellent! Even the dulce de leche tres leches was good. The guava and mango cakes were okay, very fruity and soft. We have already gone twice and this is definitely a favorite in the city for tres leches cake!

    best cafe con leche in brooklyn! i need to come back for the crazy giant burgers and quesadillas.

    Dulce de Leche Blondie Cake. Good. Can be made with tres leches or without.

    It's really 3.5 stars. I've ordered about 5-6 cakes from here. I usually go to a Dominican bakery for my special event cakes but I was trying to find a new spot that was just as good or better to switch things up every now and then. I initially kept ordering tres leches cakes from here because that seemed popular but my guests were always complaining about the taste. I didn't want to give up on this place because the reviews were so good, but I couldn't figure out why my guests never cared for the cake from here. Until I realized my family just does not like tres leche lol. Once I figured out what cake to order (homestyle with dulce de leche filling), I was sold. Now of course taste is subjective but here's my honest opinion about these experiences. Pros: Convenience/Availability: this restaurant used to be open 24/7 (precovid), now they're open 12h a day, and they have a website to order and pay for your cakes minimum 48h before pickup. It is extremely convenient and one of the main reasons I found this bakery because I needed a last minute custom cake and every other bakery needed more than 2 days notice. The online process is really easy and reliable. Specialty stock cakes: they have a lot of pretty and beautifully decorated stock cakes that you can pick up for super last minute events. Price: reasonable prices for stock cakes. Cons: Tres leches: Now I don't know what it's "supposed" to taste like but it's usually just wet and flavorless, the times I've ordered without tres leche, the cakes tasted much better and the people loved it. Decor: I find the decor of the custom cakes to be a bit underwhelming Extra prices: It's an extra $15 for dulce de leche filling on the cakes and also extra for dominican cake (VS regular homestyle or vanilla cake) which makes it a bit more pricey than my regular Dominican bakery for a similar cake. The dulce de leche filling is so worth it though.

    Empanadas de Carne (Picadillo de Res)

    I decided to order from La Gran Via again because my husband loved the mini pastelitos. I also ordered the Coconete, which I have never had and I think it might be my new favorite!!! It is hard to describe what it tastes like...it is like a combination of muffin and cookie...with coconut and maybe cinnamon ...it is just delicious... I also ordered the Tornillos Caracoles, it is a lovely pastry with a delicious pastry cream, enjoyed that too. I also tried the chicken empanada...wow it was so flavorful and definately not skimpy. Glad I gave them a second chance.

    Delicious fresh cakes and bakery goods. Great service. This location has been open for many many years and serves the best cakes for any events.

    Supposedly 3 leches
    Nathalia N.

    Things are back to normal at this location. The last cake I ordered for a baptism was delicious, moist and the guava filling was finger licking good. I didn't care for the vanilla filling. I placed the order online and then spoke to Roy over the phone. I ordered it plain and decorated the cake myself.

Her creative vision and attention to detail make every one of her cakes truly unique. Lisa's cakes are both beautiful and delicious. They are so fluffy and moist (never overly sweet), and really make an impression at every event. We've had so many compliments from guests at various events on how tasty the cakes were. Lisa is so patient and pleasant that it made working with her extremely easy. She goes above and beyond to make sure that the cake she makes is perfect for the occasion. I love working with Lisa and already can't wait for her to bake my next cake!

There was absolutely no flavor--just tasted like straight butter and sugar. I know what pandan taste like and it wasn't it. I paid extra for pandan flavor, and honestly there was zero trace of it. I could tell she used green dye, It literally tasted like a bland, buttery sugar cookie cake. Texture-wise, it was just as bad. It wasn't moist at all and didn't even hold up properly even before cutting--it just fell apart. It looks like crumbled rocks. The cake was so dry! For the price, I expected much better quality. Communication was another major issue. There's no phone number, only email, which already felt off. Responses were slow and unhelpful, making the whole process feel unprofessional and honestly a bit sketchy. What kind of business only communicates through email? Overall, I'm highly disappointed. Definitely not worth the money. Save yourself the frustration and look elsewhere--this is a perfect example of why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. I truly wanted to support her small business but it didn't turn out the way I expected. This business overpromise and under deliver. Don't say you can make a pandan cake when you clearly don't have the proper ingredients. Could been honest to begin with but instead you dug a hole and lied by using green dye. Never again am I supporting this small home business I rather go to an actual LLC.

They also have cookies in the front and other frozen goods in the freezer. This used to be my go to spot but the strawberry cheesecake really didn't hit the spot after it was defrosted. It was hard and the texture did not taste too fresh like it used to. Their cookies are still a great buy tho.

    There is always one family member who whips up desserts, bakes the most delicious cookies, and…read morekneads the most perfect bread. Additionally, this family member most times bakes without consulting a recipe. The ingredients are memorized or better yet she can produce these desserts from scratch. Boy, I wish I had this talent but I don't.. here's where Aunt Butchie's steps in. Aunt Butchie's baked goods are just delicious. I've had numerous varieties of their cookies: red velvet, chocolate chip, chocolate chunk cookie and double chocolate cookies. Of course, AB is known for her cheesecake cannolis, mini cheesecake cones and if you are undecided go for the Sampler Pie (Chocolate Mousse, NY Cheesecake, Mississippi Mud Pie,Carrot Cake). There is limited seating indoor and outdoors but of course bringing these baked treasures to family makes you want to run home and share it with them. The best is the "to go" fridges where you can take home all of the above and more! AB dream was to share their family desserts with neighborhood restaurants, a dream that Bay Ridgians are so happy they did!
