    We had an amazing celebration this weekend for my Father's birthday and this cake was the centerpiece of it all! In just a week Marisol Cakes took my requested idea and turned it into a beautiful reality! Even the chef at the restaurant was impressed! Not only was it beautiful, but the chocolate cake was DELICIOUS! Thanks for making a special night even more special!!

    Marisol makes GORGEOUS cakes that are incredibly tasty as well. There isn't a flavor she's said no to making as of yet, and she made a speciality buttercream for my wife upon request - Reese's! The pick-up handoff was seamless and I would 100% order from her again!

    Custom Baby Shower Cake

    I couldn't speak more highly of my experience with Marisol Cakes! I ordered my sister a custom cake as a surprise since her baby shower had to be cancelled during quarantine, and it was a HUGE hit! Marisol was the only baker I reached out to who was able to quickly & easily satisfy all my needs -- custom design, safe delivery during COVID, and quality cake for a great price. She was extremely responsive, easy to work with, and totally understood my vision for the cake! The result was stunning and my sister couldn't stop raving about how DELICIOUS it was! highly recommend Marisol Cakes to anyone looking for gorgeous, delicious cakes in the DMV area at a reasonable cost!

    The photos looked too good to be true, but Marisol definitely knows her way around fondant. Ordering was painless. I used the form on the website and got a reply pretty quickly. I sent some example photos, explained what I wanted, and she made it happen! My son LOVED his cake! It was delicious and decorated beautifully. We're definitely going to order from here again the next time we need to celebrate.

    Awesome graduation cake

    I found Marisol via Yelp, and I'm so glad I did! Marisol baked and decorated a beautiful AND delicious cake for my graduation celebration. Everyone at the party raved about how great the cake tasted! Marisol was extremely easy to work with and very friendly. I could not have been more satisfied!

    Golf themed cake!

    Except for the miss-spelling of the name, which was an easy fix, the cake was more than what I was expecting. Very yummy and pretty. The owner was very communicative and it was easy to meet up and get the cake. Definitely would use them again!

    I found Marisol on Yelp and she was such a good find. She is an at-home baker with a ton of skill, who could easily have her own bakery. She made a gorgeous cake for my son's Boy Scout event. She was responsive along the way, friendly, and polite. Would order from her again in a heartbeat.

    Beautiful birthday cake

    Omg wow. Marisol if you're reading this, thank you so much for the wonderful birthday cake for my baby boy. The cake was not only beautiful but tasted so good. I usually don't eat cake but i loved this cake so much. The artwork was very professional and detailed perfection. I loved that she worked with me with my price and budget, it was very pleasant working with her and I'm definitely going to be a loyal customer for future events.

    This was the vanilla cake with "vanilla frosting (there was no frosting on the entire cake)

    I'm sad to write such a terrible review for Marisol Cakes because Marisol made my daughter's first birthday cake, which was farm-themed, and it was delicious and absolutely adorable. The time and effort that went into that cake was evident and our guests raved about how delicious it was. Because of that experience, we asked Marisol to make my daughter's second birthday cake, which was Moana-themed. This cake disappointed on every level. I sent Marisol a picture as a model, which was topped with what appears to be iced cookies or handmade fondant characters. Marisol had handmade all the farm animals for last year's cake, so I thought she would do the same this year. We also agreed that the cake would be round, would have vanilla frosting and would be a single tier like the year before. When the cake arrived, it was topped with low-quality, washed out printed fondant that was peeling off the cake. The letters looked like pre-purchased Wilton ones and they were not actually attached the fondant, so they literally wiped off if touched. The main fondant color was an unattractive off-white, the fondant waves had seams all over and the cake was square, not round, and not the size we had discussed. I texted her to express my disappointment and was met with a combative attitude and an offer that she would come back and pick up the cake (which was clearly not an option with 25 guests already at my house and a 2-year old who had been promised a Moana cake). All of this would have been forgivable, though, if the cake tasted the way it did the year before. Unfortunately, it was truly terrible. It was a single layer, but it was almost 4 inches tall and there was not an ounce of frosting on it (either on the outside or inside the cake), which made it terribly dry because of the fondant covering. Someone described it as tasting like a dense, dry pound cake and people who were at both parties didn't believe that it was made by the same person. I followed up with Marisol and she did not respond. Rather than trying to make things right so that she could preserve a client relationship, Marisol decided to double down and defend a work product that she knew was subpar. We were beyond disappointed and will never use her again.

This cafe was recommended by an uber driver, as well as others, who have visited the local shopping center. Once you enter this small cafe, you will hear Ethipion pop music in the background, not too loud, and you may find older gentlemen sitting with their coffee drinks and talking in Amheric about politics or stories from back home. Once I entered this wonderful place, the guests were surprised and definitely stared as I came in. Lolol I am a big fan of Ethiopian coffee and the Ethiopian way to prepare coffee and espresso beverages. Their menus carry a list of typical espresso beverages, a list of baked goods, and a list of smoothie drink varieties. They are very well priced. I ordered a delicious and hearty Ethiopian special hot tea, which contained ample amounts of ginger, honey and orange. I am recovering from a cold and cough, and the drink helped to clear my throat and sinuses. It was higher priced compared with the other beverages (it's worth the price), and I ordered *for here* since they have many ceramic cups and glassware and they ultimately gave me a paper cup even though guests sitting at the small tables were drinking from ceramic cups and glassware. Also ordered a fresh squeezed orange juice, but they did not add ice. If you want a cold drink with ice, I guess you should tell them that you want ice in it when you order. Definitely a different experience drinking a fruit juice w/o ice. I liked their version of tiramisu. They add more coffee powder and cocoa powder in the cake and on top of it. Also, they make a Creamy and filling strawberry layered cake with a custard in the middle, called fruit cake. Light cake and dense custard the same time. Reminded me of a Mille feaux. For groups of three or more, I would recommend getting your order to go due to space limitations.

    Great Food, Vine & Customer Service!…read more I stopped in here for a quick bite with a friend before heading to an eye doctor appointment next door. I must say I really like the vibe of this place. Beeline Diner is one of diners that are retro-cool and has a neighborhood feel to it. It's very popular with the locals and folks that live around the area. I couldn't help but noticed how friendly the staff was and seemed to know their regular patrons. That's a great plus, in my book. The menu is loaded with lots of great options and your comfort food classics...including vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. On this day, we tried the chicken & waffles and steak omelette. Both more delicious and was served fairly quick! The portions were great too definitely enough food to share. The check was tender, juicy and most of all.....seasoned!! lol The waffles were pretty standard on taste but I would say they fluffy and light. The steak omelette did not disappoint either. It was loaded with sirloin steak, cheese and onions! Every lift of my fork left me with bits of steak bites! My kind of meal for sure!!! The only negative about this dish is that the steak is not made to order or cooked to your preference (I.e. medium, medium rare, well done, etc.). Instead the steak it's already pre-cooked and I was told by the server that it is roughly around, medium-well. That might be okay for some, but I prefer my steak month medium side. Medium-well makes this dish and steak overcooked by the time it's delivered to you. This was the case for me. The sirloin steak was a bit on the tough side...as know as chewy. lol Other than this, I have nothing but great things to say about my first visit to this establishment. The customer service was on point and everyone was so friendly. This!...& the Chicken n' Waffles dish won me over. We left pretty full and satisfied....which was a little disappointing because the desserts in the display cases looked amazing and I really wanted to dive-in on one of them! In all, you can't go wrong with Beeline Diner. The food hits the spot and the price point is great too. I recommend and looking forward to coming back to try some of the other plethora of dishes they serve! :-)
