I was looking for a bakery for my son's birthday and wanted to support local business instead getting a cake from supermarket. Maison Rafi showed up on Yelp so I decided to visit! Their service was so nice and helpful! Their main kitchen is actually in Pasadena and they transport the baked goods and cake to Glendora. I got a slice of hazelnut cake, Black Forest, and tiramisu. Then the lady gave me their freshly baked sesame cookies and omg it was soooooo good!!! Their cakes are not too sweet and not artificial flavors, too. I would want to come back and try their carrot cake and pistachio cake. Both were sold out when I got there! read more

Amazing baklava at amazing prices. Totally reasonable for the quality and quantity you receive, and the taste is over the top! Worth the long drive! If you love baklava, you will love this place! Great customer service and friendly staff. Delicious read more

Ordered the chocolate mousse cake and it was a big hit. Appreciated the good customer service as well. Glad I found this bakery!

I stopped by recently after not coming here in a long time. They have plenty of items to choose from. Everything we tried was exceptional and the gentleman that was helping us was friendly and knowledgeable. read more

My partner decided he wanted to try something totally new for his birthday, and after a little research he decided to try a European dessert from Rafi's. I called the bakery and spoke to a women, asking her to help us choose between ordering a honey cake or a birds milk cake. She suggested doing individual slices of each so we could try both, which was a genius idea and cost exactly the same as ordering one whole cake. We have 2 days notice for when we needed to pick up and when we got there it was all boxed up and ready for us. She offered to write on the slices, or to include a chocolate "happy birthday" plate but we declined. The cakes were RIDICULOUSLY good, I cannot believe I've lived 30 years without having honey cake in my life. I will absolutely be back to try more of their treats! Great experience all around read more

Drove by this place so many times and finally get to visit this place today. They have quite a variety of sweet both French style bakery and Mifdle Eastern desserts. Ranging from butter croissants to ham & cheese to sweet eclairs to baklava to all sorts of other sweet that I am not exposed to. The service was superb so friendly and took time to explain what they are. Lovely little shop. Can park in front of the store and they have more parking in the back. Prices are very reasonable. read more

One of my favorite sweets shop ever. I try something new every time and I'm always impressed.

I was looking for a local bakery in town and found this on Yelp! It was my first time here, so I walked in and was greeted by the kindest gentleman, Rafi. He was incredibly helpful while I was trying to find pastries to give as a gift, and even gave me baklavas to try for myself, which are my favorite! I had such a wonderful experience, and will be going back later this week! Thank you Rafi! read more

The pastry here is the best! The only thing they lack is patience and customer service.

If you like the taste of fresh European cake or want to try it, Maison Rafi is the right place to go to. They also have a huge selection of Fresh Mediterranean desserts like baklava, kenafeh and more. You can customize your cake, you just need to place your order it in advance.They have chocolate boxes which are great ideas for some gifts. It is a family owned business. The owner and his family are very nice and friendly. I got the following; -Raspberry chocolate, - Black & White cake -Chocolate Eclair -Rum Ball -Apricot Roll - Chocolate Bird Cake They were very fluffy, indulgent and so yummy. I love apricot so the apricot roll is always my favorite. Honestly, all their sliced cakes are outstanding. I tried everything they have throughout the years either cakes, sliced cakes or Mediterranean desserts, and everything was spectacular! It's such an exquisite patisserie / Cake shop in Glendora. read more

Food: 5 Service: 5 Value: 4 Some of the best baklava I've had in a while. Not cloyingly sweet and full of nuts. I can't wait to try their other treats! read more

What a delightful change from 85°c and PORTO'S. YES there I said it! Really too many desserts, to list that are my favorites, but if I had to The bird's milk and , the honey cake are definitely a must try!! The cake layers are so moist, light and airy, and the frosting is a buttercream. But not too sweet, a fantastic combination. And if you're lucky enough The pistachio a cheesecake, what is to die for! Not to mention the termisu is pure fire!! The cookies are sold by weight, so you can go to town on the different selections. I just can't say enough good things about this bakery. A total 5 star establishment. I'll give it an extra star. Just for this customer service. So if you have that sweet tooth, but don't want to get the cavities, you have to try this place.You won't regret it. read more

This place is amazing, we come here regularly and i don't think I've had a bad thing yet, i would def try if you're in the area.

We ordered like 10 trays of this delicious goodness for gathering and everyone loves it. We're not very familiar with this kind of dessert and usually have pretty high standards. This little triangle met and exceeded our expectations. Coated with layers of crunch, fresh fruity aroma with generous amount of cheese and most importantly NOT TOO SWEET like typical Costco baklava (ugh) Highly recommend it.. read more

Really amazing desserts and great service. Highly recommend . They have amazing cakes.

So it's my wife's birthday and she said she wants to come to Maison Rafi to get some sweets for our family get together and what can I say, we drive all the way to Glendora. Fortunately, it was a very worthwhile event. The people that work there are all so nice. When I pointed to one pastry, they offered a taste. My daughter was going gang-busters and had to be toned down or we would have walked out with a $100 purchase. Everything was so good and we can't wait to get back here. Again, just can't thank how friendly their staff is and allowing us to try a few things to see what we should purchase. read more

Maison Rafi - Bakeries Near Me - Glendora, California

Maison Rafi is hands-down one of the best bakeries I've ever visited. Every treat feels like it was made with love and tradition. The cakes are light yet decadent, the cookies are perfectly balanced--not too sweet, just right--and their pastries are melt-in-your-mouth good. But if you try only one thing, make it anything with ashta and pistachio. The creamy richness of the ashta paired with the crunch of pistachios is pure bliss. The service is wonderful and and the ambiance is great! Maison Rafi has mastered the art of dessert--I'll be dreaming about their sweets until my next visit! read more

This bakery has one of the best Syrian desserts in the entire inland empire! Their warbat bi ishta are delightfully crisp on the outside and creamy in the middle, while the halawet el jibbin melts in your mouth. The Mamoul is buttery and delicious but we just wish they sold smaller date mamoul's bc they are quite large. The cakes are beautiful and delicious as well. I ordered a cake for a baby shower and it was not only beautiful but also delicious. See the pic! read more

Maison Rafi - Cake by Maison Raffi! - Bakeries Near Me - Glendora, California

Maison Rafi never fails to deliver not only some of the most delicious Mediterranean treats, but also amazing service! I've been back multiple times over the past several years, and I am never disappointed with my experience, but more specifically anything I walk out with. I love that everything is fresh, and everything is always a hit to any of the family gatherings I bring it too. My go to is always the Baklava, but the Pistachio Knefe has a special place in my heart (and stomach haha). When it comes to cake flavors, their Honey Cake and Bird's Milk are truly two of the most delicious and unique flavors I've ever had! I highly recommend them, especially if you like things on the sweeter side. Last year, they helped in making the most amazing (and delicious) custom cake for my engagement party!! (With the cutest decal to celebrate the date of our engagement). Maison Rafi has become a special place for myself and those around me, and I'm always so glad when I can swing by and grab some delicious treats. read more

The best bakery in the SGV! read more

Maison Rafi has a humble appearance; it offers the best authentically made Lebanese and Syrian specialty sweets. Everything I tasted here was fresh and heavenly. The Petit-Fours, halawe-b-jibne, Atayef, Shaabiyet are all spot-on light and not overly sweet. If not careful, one can easily gain ten pounds with these delightful indulgences. The place is clean, the service is fast and pleasant. Items do not have prices, in order to know the price you will need to ask for the price on each item. The receipt is not itemized. Despite this we never felt that the items were overpriced. Thank you, Mr. Raffi! We travel 30 miles each way to come here, and your service and goodies do not disappoint. read more

I've been there customer for long years and always came out with delicious pastries and excellent service.

had a wonderful experience at this bakery. Rene helped me out, she was so kind, helpful, and knowledgeable about all the goodies they offer. She took the time to explain the different options and made great recommendations, which made the whole experience even better. The customer service was just as sweet as the treats themselves! I'll definitely be coming back. read more

They serve old cake. I will start off with my first experience which was in August 2024. I went to this small bakery to buy a cake for my dad's birthday. It was white cake with fruit salad. That cake was fresh, it was delicious, and it had my family asking me where it was from. Now let's go to today. September 12, 2024. My son's birthday. I went to buy a cake at around 2pm. I didn't bother even asking if the cakes were fresh, because last time I came I asked the woman who worked there which cakes were the freshest, and she told me all of them. And viola my father's cake was delicious. For my son I bought a vanilla chocolate layered cake that was decorated beautifully. We sang happy birthday to my son, and cut into the cake, and this cake was disgusting. The frosting and whipped cream were hard and like clay. The cake was stale. It was gross. My family members agreed. Now I am not going to stop the party and say let me not distribute the cake after we all already sang happy birthday and people are eating the cake. But if I could refund the cake I would. I thought I found a gem of a bakery, but I will never buy a cake from here again. I was embarrassed to serve it. Some of the chocolate still even had parchment paper stuck to it. Like who leaves paper on a cake that people are going to eat. I usually would get cakes from Porto's and it looks like I am going back to the big chain. At least they are always fresh there. read more

I've never been to this bakery ever. I called hoping we could get a red velvet cake my grandson's birthday that day we had just gotten back from Arizona.. unfortunately he didn't have any but, he told me he could call his place in Pasadena. Ask them to make one and bring it to them and I could pick it up anytime after three. I was just amazed.! Completely friendly over the phone very caring, and really adamant about helping me. He kept his promise. The cake was picked up and I have to say it was the best red velvet cake me and my grandchildren and people that were at the party have never tasted one as good as this one.! Thank you so much Ravi Madison for going the extra mile for me keeping your word and making the best ever red velvet cake for us! We will certainly order something from him again, no need for any other bakery, he has it all there to please everyone! read more

The service was welcoming right as soon as we walked in. The store was nice and neat. Its all cake and cookies . A hidden gem for sure read more

First time tryin' Mason Rafi and the taste of the pastries is just normal nothing especial.Nothing beats Karina's Cake fr. Glendale.

Such a great find through Yelp again. Needed to find a cake for a birthday and wanted to try a new place. Madison Rafi had great reviews, but I wanted to try it myself to see what is so amazing about this place. My initial call was already great- the staff was kind and patient. Told me the choices available. My experience walking into their store was reflective of my initial call as well. It's a clean place with lots of options as seen in my photos. I walked out with more than just a cake, but also multiple slices of cake and even their hazelnut tart. The cake was very fresh, fluffy and not too sweet! Ended up selecting their hazelnut chocolate cake. Their tiramisu, cappuccino cake and hazelnut tarts were all delicious as well. The Russian bird milk was good but the sweetest of all the options. Overall, great experience and even met the owner/baker! He was sweet, kind and funny. Love supporting small business owners and I find my new go to shop for sweets! read more

I've been coming here for a long time and their desserts never fail to amaze me! I would definitely recommend coming here for a middle eastern treat. Their deserts are tasty and taste just as similar as a treat in the middle east. As well as their dessert, their service is amazing. They will always do their best to fulfill what you're looking for. read more

We purchased 6 separate pastries (mini cakes) yesterday and 4/6 were absolutely dried out. We wouldn't recommend going there. Save yourself the drive and money. Assuming because they don't get a lot of customers so have to sell days old food. read more
