Having availed ourselves to their bakery items before, we returned for lunch when in the area again. I loved it !! I got their chicken florentine sandwich, and it came with a cup of tomato bisque. Wow (!!) to both items. The tomato bisque was a beautiful blend of tomato, herbs and a slight amount of cream..... I wanted to lick the bowl ! As for the sandwich, the ingredients were a grilled chicken breast, sundried tomato, spinach, provolone cheese, asiago and artichoke spread on herbed foccacia bread. The portions were huge, plentiful, and absolutely delicious. I love ingredient combinations like this sandwich. All the flavors blend so nicely, and I am always so happy when they get it right...... and Dolce certainly does !! read more

Love coming here to eat. Good service. The bakery is the best. I get my cakes here for parties. Miss eating there.

What a cute little place! Had no idea it was around the corner from the mall! A great afternoon lunch spot honestly. I'm sure the dinner and drinks are just as good. I enjoyed all my food and service, Kelsey was a great server. The ambiance was comfy and the music was flowing. Bathrooms were so clean! Smelled nice too. Sunlight hits this building perfection, truly. The big windows let all the light and warmth in. Deft going to go back. Good parking. Not too crowded of a shopping center. read more

Cake are not too sweet just perfect and they have so many flavors. Smile cake on the go which is perfect for any occasion. Service is quick and friendly. read more

This cake was pretty good. My red velvet was a little dry but the overall flavor was good. Their carrot cake used to be my favorite until they switched the whipped frosting, which was light and truly delightful, to the buttercream, which is too heavy and sweet. Overall my favorites are the ones with whipped frosting. I wish they had more varieties of those. read more

Review: Saturday, October 5th Came for the first time and absolutely loved it. Everything we ordered was so good, flavorful, and good size portions. We started with the nachos. So good, forgot to take a picture before everyone digged in. I also forgot to take a picture of my Moscow mule which was also good. Over my experience from beginning to end was 5 stars. Great friendly staff, our waitress was too funny and made sure we had a good time and good food. They also have a bakery on the other side which I will try next time. Hope to return soon. read more

Amazing cakes!! We have tried 2 so far. We tried the strawberry cake (their best seller) and the horchata tres leches. OMG. That tres leches cake was the BOMB!! The Family ate the whole thing! Will definitely be back to try more! read more

We went there for a quick bite. Ordered chicken Florentine sandwich. It's a grilled chicken breast with sun dried tomatoes, spinach, provolone cheese in a focaccia bread. A cup of tomato bisque and sweet potato fries on the side. Everything went well except for the "fiber" on the bread. We called the attention of our server, she brought the sandwich back to the kitchen and went back to our table with an explanation of "the chef said it's a fiber from the bread." it pretty much looked like it came from the head of our server. breads has a different fiber as far as I know. read more

2019 went for a custom cake. They Dont do cake consultation at brunch time. They need 5 day notice to make a cake. Starting at $200 for a 2 tier(2story cake) custom cake. If you want lil designs (flowers, ribbons, polka dots..etc) its obviously extra. Its pricey and the cake is pretty small probably feeds 20 people. Now if u want a decent 2 tier cake its soo expensive. If you get a cake already done on their display you can buy it for around $30. You can get a stamp for your stamp card everytime u spend $25. AND Mondays are closed! read more

I ordered a small cake for my kids birthday & it looked horrible. Looks like the cake was done by a kid & charged me a lot of money for a party of 15. I was appalled bcuz if you look at their site & pictures of cakes they look great but not mine. They even called me a few days later asking me if I was satisfied & I said, No! He tells me that a supervisor will call me & of course I never heard back. Please do yourself a favor & but your cake elsewhere. read more

Went looking for a Birthday cake and wanted something not too sweet. A lot of selections on 12/30/22. ended up with the the Creme Brûlée Cake for a friends birthday. Everyone raved about it and it was delicious !!! The service was outstanding also. Bought a Neapolitan to eat on the way home, best one I've ever had !!! Think they are doing a remodel on the restaurant fyi. The Almond cake is still one of my faves too! read more

Layered Cakerie - White velvet with fresh strawberry filling - Bakeries Near Me - Montclair, California

Ordered a cake here , let me just start with the bakers attitude and the cake. Strawberries were outweighing half the cake it was completely lopsided as a baker with common sense I think this should have been avoided by readjusting the fruit or advised that she can style it differently she said "don't shake the cake too much" lmao. I don't think I'll be coming back. . read more

Our server Glen hooked us up with a lot of great suggestions. The Pomona queen michelada tasted great and the hibiscus cider was also excellent. The food for happy hour came in very decent portion sizes for the price, you get a good bang for your buck. We got the buffal chicken waffle fries and the pulled pork sliders and everything was hot and fresh. I was worried about a few recent reviews sounding somewhat negative but my experience here was positive. Staff was nice, food was fresh and price was fair. read more

I was really excited about trying some desserts from here as they looked amazing. Unfortunately it just wasn't what I expected. The cake ball was very small for the cost and tasted like a stale fridge if that makes sense. I wasn't able to finish it. The cake slice was very moist and dense which was a plus! It just didn't have the flavor I was expecting. Not really that sweet at all, and the giant walnuts were overloading every bite. That slice also had that kind of stale taste as well. The cakes were decorated very simplistic but beautiful! If you're looking for a dessert that's not very sweet, this may be worth trying out. The girl working the counter was super sweet. The guy at the counter looked very bored and wasn't very interactive whatsoever. read more

OHMYGAWD..... the Cronuts!!!!! i'm guilty of ONLY having the cronuts at this place -- because they're right next door to my all-time 26 year favorite place to eat EVER. (i mean... how could i pass by my old standby and get actual food just 4 doors down?) BUT!!!! I ordered a lg. variety of cronuts from this cute little place a few years back and took them into work. -- let me tell you... i was the STAR of the whole department that day!!!! (ok: for the entire WEEK) =) read more

My friend and I came in for dinner. First off there was not one around to seat us. When we finally got seated it took forever to give our drink orders than to eventually get them. It looked like they were really short staffed. I ordered the monthly special Hamburger. But, was told they had just ran out. I ended up ordering the melt and my friend the meatloaf. Both were excellent. When we got the bill I found my wine cost $12 which was close to the cost of my sandwich. My bad for not checking the cost. It is really unfortunate that the owner of this establishment doesn't seem to care about service or if they lose diners. My friend said he will never go back. read more

First time here and it was a great! I got here and was greeted warmly by Irene! I let her know I was interested in the brunch menu but understood it was ending in less than 10min but they said we still arrived on time. Really appreciated that because that's what I was looking forward to. My server was Lehualani and she was so so sweet . Gave us enough time to look through the menu, was so kind, and the food came out pretty fast! We ordered the Poutine as well as the Fried chicken with biscuits. Honestly, the chefs knocked it out of the park! Our food was really hardy, it was a pretty big portion, and every bite I took of the poutine I could taste every ingredient they used. I really appreciate food and the people that make it, and I can tell this place really cares about their quality. Really thankful my first experience here was with Lehualani, and I'm glad I didn't butcher your name because it's so beautiful! Thank you and I'm so excited to come back for happy hour and breakfast :)! Keep up the good work ! read more

I cant forget how good the server was she did well guiding me in to the foodie zone!! I cant wait to go back and explore the menu read more

I love this place! It's very cute, the servers were very attentive, the environment is fun. It's a nice place to catch up, watch a game or even do some studying. I ordered the chorizo and eggs off of their brunch menu, prices are reasonable. Everything came out great. I will definitely be coming back to try out their beer selection. Something I found that was an absolute plus was to see feminine products in their ladies room. It's unusual to see that. That meant a lot to me :) read more

I've personally eaten lunch here twice. Their short rib mac and cheese sandwich is delicious. I ordered that both times. Servers are nice, but not as attentive when you need them. Also, there is a wait time between brunch and lunch. The restaurant won't seat you while the menu transitions. What promoted this review were the cakes we ordered for a party I hosted. We loved the flavors of the lemon raspberry, and the over the rainbow cakes. We also threw in a marble chocolate mousse cake to appeal to the chocolate lovers. The ordering process was confusing, though. They don't give prices over the phone. We also got mixed information about the pricing on preordered cakes. We only wanted 8 in. rounds but didn't want their decorated frosting. They quoted $85 per cake to keep it plain white buttercream. That's 2 and 1/2 times the price of their ready made 8 in. rounds, which doesn't make sense. Fortunately another manager was able to accommodate our request at the normal price for 8 inch rounds. It really helped to make our event a success because we got so many compliments on the cakes, among many other compliments. We plan to order again in the future and hopefully that'll be an easy process. read more

Make some more chocolate chip cookies ffs always run out way early. If you know you run out make more!!!

The cake are very good The bread is very moist. A very delicious with strawberries one day. I'm going to order cakes from there.

I love their pastries they are delicious and not over priced. Cookies, cupcakes and cakes you name it they got it and you won't be upset. A little gem. read more

The cakes here are delicious. It's premium. I am not much of a cake person but this place won't disappoint you. So far I tried cream brûlée and hazelnut mocha. You can taste the high quality ingredients. Each layer has a different flavor, which makes it a great combination. I love how they sell slices of each whole size cake they have on display. Their chocolate eclair and custard puff is good. All the ladies that work there are very friendly. I wish this place was close to me. read more

The best cakes ever. My go to for all my cake needs. I have alway had a positive experience from ordering on the phone to pick up.

Dolce is both a bakery and a bistro. The bakery serves what you would expect: cakes, cake pops, cookies, cheesecake, cronuts(original is best) and the rest are too sweet. They of course make cakes for all occasions. The bistro offers sandwiches, coffees, burgers and other entrees. The service here was fast and friendly. For close to $23.00 I bought 3 pieces of cake, 2 cake pops and 2 cronuts. Everyone liked the cronuts and the cake pops. The red velvet cake really didn't taste like anything. That was disappointing. If your ordering a cake, I would sample the different flavors first. Dolce is open 6 days a week and they are open until 9 pm. Give them a try. read more

Very disappointed. I ordered a tart, crème puff, and eclair expecting them all to have custard. Unfortunately they were all filled with whipped cream and no custard. Their little signs said they had custard in them, unfortunately they false advertised. I don't recommend this place if you are want to order the of the previous pastries above. read more

The tres leches cake was so dry :( very disappointed. I thought it would be like other tres leches cakes I've tried they are known to be moist and wet because its soaked but the one i got was dry. read more

To give this place a 1 star review is too much, the dessert is very dry, burnt and has no flavor. The manager didn't seem to want to help a new employee, was rude to them in front of me and the manager had a lack of basic customer service skills. Would never go back here again and highly do not recommend!!!!! read more

We have been wanting to try Dolce for quite some time as we had learned of this place from the local food critics and just looked just plane delicious. We tried them out for dinner on Saturday evening and really enjoyed our meals. My wife and I each split the Backyard BBQ: Cavatappi Mac and Cheese, bacon, onion straws, pepper jack, ranch and Chipotle BBQ sauce on a Brioche bun and The Melt: Bourbon caramelized onions, while grain Dijon Aioli, Swiss and Cheddar Marble Rye. We also split the onion rings and house fries. Both were outstanding burgers made with high grade Angus Beef and full of rich flavor. Some of the best burgers that we have had in a long time. The fries were good and crispy, not soggy and the onion rings were fabulous as well. My wife is really particular on onion rings and she really enjoyed these. We of course had a few beers after such a long day but found their craft beer selection a bit limited. Not that we didn't find something to enjoy although I was disappointed they no longer had the Coconut Porter from Maui Brewing. Our waitress was nice and knowledgeable and told us about Dolce's brunch menu which sound delicious! We will definitely be having brunch here! We were not wholly sold on the modern metal décor but everything was comfortable enough and did look nice. Just not our style. Being we were full after dinner and did not get a chance to try out the bakery which definitely looked scrumptious! I know we are coming back for to try this as well. Dolce Gastropub is definitely a do over and most likely become some place we will frequent even though they seem to close a bit on the early side for our liking and don't appears to like people coming in too close to closing read more

I loved the cake that the bakers at Dolce made for a 70th birthday celebration! The cake was light and fluffy, beautifully decorated, and a huge hit amongst the party guests. I highly recommend them for all their desserts, especially their Mexican Hot Chocolate cookie and creme brûlée. read more

Layered Cakerie - Custom Strawberry Chiffon Cake - Bakeries Near Me - Montclair, California

What I had: - Carnitas torta ($12) - Garlic jalapeño hot wings ($10) How it tasted: - The appetizer was moderately crispy/tasty, and the entree was pretty delicious/well-seasoned. Why did I give it a four? - It was delicious and I'd come back, but it isn't something I constantly think about traveling to to eat. Decent beer selection, and a large dessert section to choose from as well. Verdict? - Try it out if you're craving sweets and/or a small hangout spot in Montclair. read more

Horribly dry wedding cake!! Well over cooked. For $1300 I have the right to expect perfection. The fondant was gross. Childish word, I know, but it was more like a tasteless taffy. The focal point of my daughter's wedding was a disaster! Too bad Yelp doesn't allow for negative stars. read more

Two stars because the desserts are delicious and very creative! But the hospitality/customer service is horrible here and they NEVER answer the phone. Always get weird/dirty looks when coming in. Whether it's Dolce or Layered Cakerie they don't answer. Keep in mind when wanting to pre order cakes for events. BEWARE! read more

Stopped in for a quick bite of something sweet. This place is great...so many delicious sweet treats to drool over in the bakery case. The cake is a yummy fluffy sponge and has a whipped cream frosting and a filling (along with sliced fresh strawberries). They wrap each slice to ensure freshness. You can mix and match cake slices to equal a whole cake if you want a variety of dessert options. read more
