The staff here never really seem to be too friendly/they don't want to be there. The items we order, which are usually the same, are wildly inconsistent, being more miss than hit. Other Sweethoney locations are usually good and we enjoy what we order. However, this location, is quite depressing in food and service.

As the name of the bakery implies, it's "Perfectly Sweet"…read more I'm generally a bit more wary of purchasing baked goods from non-Asian bakeries since they tend to be sweeter than what my palate likes, but not here! The hours are a bit limited, but I managed to make it in time to grab some pre-made baked goods to go. I got a bag of coconut macaroons, bag of several chocolate chip cookies, 2 red velvet cookies, a baked dog cookie biscuit, and a cute Keroppi sugar cookie. Most of these ended up being gifts, but I did enjoy one of the red velvet cookies and for an already sweet flavor profile with white chocolate chips in it, I was already fearing the worse, but went perfect with a glass of milk. The edges were nicely crisped by the baking too. Delicious. Love that they had a stock of cute, pre-decorated cookies available as well (some Sanrio characters, animals, etc.) They also list all the ingredients used in each of the baked goods that they have prepackaged, which is nice. It's also a cafe where you can order drinks, as well as a place you can order cakes custom order or what they have behind the glass already. There's both seating inside and outside.

Perfectly Sweet is one of my all-time favorite bakeries!…read moreI've been coming here for years, and their Strawberry Shortcake is my absolute favorite light, fresh, and delicious every single time. I also love their cheesecake and fruitcake, which never disappoint. Whenever I need a birthday treat for a friend, I pick up one of their small cakes. They're always a hit! I especially love the edible chocolate "Happy Birthday" sign and how they package everything so beautifully in a white box with a gold bow and a lavender flower touch it's such a thoughtful and elegant detail. The customer service is consistently amazing warm, welcoming, and always helpful. Highly recommend Perfectly Sweet for anyone looking for high-quality, delicious desserts with a personal touch!

Dessert spot that specializes in soft serve and taiyaki. I came in at a time when it wasn't busy,…read moreso my service was really quick and friendly. The place was pretty chill as well. I had just eaten dinner so I've kept it pretty simple here. I ordered the swirl with pure milk and pineapple dole whip. A simple yet tasty and satisfying combo. The serving size was pretty generous, especially relative to the price. Just a great place to grab some quick soft serve in the area.

It looks aesthetically appealing in their photos online but it wasn't as good as it looked. Saw…read morethis off Yelp so decided to try it. We were the only customers. The girl working the counter was a young girl just getting by her summer day job. She was nice but timid. It was our first time there and a little more energy on her end could've been better. Ordered the ube swirl, pineapple dole whip, mung bean taiyaki, and a custard one togo. The taiyaki that goes onto the ice cream is a lot bigger than one we ordered to go. I thought it would be as big, but when I got it, it was so much smaller and flat. Also, the taiyaki that goes on top of the ice cream was old. It had been sitting there for a while or was made earlier as it was hard and difficult to bite. The red bean inside I also assumed was a paste like how they make the Japanese version, however there were whole pieces in there. It was okay, but I thought they'd be like paste. Overall, the only thing that was good was the ube swirl and the pineapple dole whip. It was also extremely warm in the shop, like no AC in the triple digits summer heat. Had to eat it elsewhere. I most likely won't be back.

Can't come to SGV without a visit to Salju Desserts. Absolutely the best shaved snow around…read more They're a tiny place, but clean with two seating areas. You can order either at a kiosk or go the the counter to order there. They offer an extensive selection of snow flavors, syrups, and toppings. There's also a variety of other desserts and beverages, but I have never been able to resist the snow. Be aware that the small size is large enough for 2 or 3 people to share, and the medium is bigger still. On the several times I've been here, service has always been both cheerful and speedy. A real pleasure. I live quite a distance away, an hour or more depending on traffic, but plan to return many more times. It's that good.

I usually only write reviews if I think the place deserves 5 stars, but now I will start reviewing…read moreeven when I think the place deserves lower ratings to help out the community of eaters pick the right choice! My friends and I chose Salju Dessert for some nice dessert because the ratings of this location seemed pretty good, but sadly we were disappointed. We chose the milk flavor and pandan. The milk flavor wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special. The pandan on the other hand was very bitter... We thought it may have been the toppings but figured out it was the pandan flavor. My friend described it as a medicine bitter taste, which I could agree on. We made a complaint and the employees happily switched it out for us for another milk flavor (maybe we should've chosen another flavor to try.) Toppings... the toppings were extremely expensive for such a small portion. It was around like $1.49 per topping??? Which is honestly pretty crazy. The toppings are set on the side in those small plastic ketchup containers. 4 Oreo cookies for $1.49, 2-3 buttercups smashed into pieces for $1.49, 1.5 strawberry sliced for $1.49, 1/8 of a banana sliced for $1.49... a container of chocolate syrup $1.49 you can imagine the rest that we added. Those portion sizes and prices are messed up lol The total was $35+ for 2 smalls with additional toppings. Overall, I don't think we will be coming back here for the shaved ice. There's definitely better options out there. The place was pretty busy too, maybe there's other items on the menu worth trying or they got bamboozled by the ratings... but in this economy, the presentation, taste, and price was not worth it and we wish we spent our money elsewhere. I usually take photos to share to friends on snap/ social media, but it was so disappointing I didn't even take any pics to show y'all. Very mid tier. Thank you to the staff who replaced our pandan though!

The only employee working was super perky and helpful, and the shop has added some awesome new merch since my last visit (loving the look and feel of their white hoodies!). I also noticed several new drinks on the menu, so I definitely need to come back to try those. I always walk away from Old Ferry a satisfied customer, can't recommend them enough!

The jasmine green milk tea ice cream is definitely in my top three of all time. It's not too sweet and very fragrant.

She never made anyone feel rushed or forgotten. Fern is the kind of employee that makes you want to come back. The food industry needs more people like her. Five stars!

Prices are fair for the area and there's free parking in the back garage which honestly makes this place way more convenient than most boba spots nearby. Good vibes, good drinks, love the popcorn chicken too!

I was excited to find a place that serves wheel cakes. You don't see that all over the place…read more This place is located at a busy area in Downtown Alhambra on Main Street. I ordered two wheel cakes. One filled with red bean, the other filled with custard cream. I would give them 3/5 stars. They were not the best I've had, but it wasn't bad. It does satisfy my craving for wheel cakes. They offer many different fillings for the wheel cakes. It is nice to have so many options. I also ordered two drinks: Strawberry Matcha and Tara milk tea. I would give these drinks 3/5 stars also. I've had better drinks elsewhere but these were not bad. Kind of average to me. I do like the fact that you can order something like popcorn chicken and fried tofu along with your drinks. I did not order those at this visit. There are indoor seatings. It has a nice and relaxed atmosphere for people to sit inside to enjoy their treats.
