Wow, has it been almost 4 years since I've been to this lovely, beautiful, well organized, super…read moreclean bakery?? Yes, it has, and shame on me! Walked in yesterday mid-evening at 5:30 pm and was greeted by Anna with a pleasant, pretty smile. She was kind, helpful and very nice. This is an Armenian bakery run by a lot of nice, helpful employees. They sell a variety of baked goods and a few savory items. Ponchik, (the closest way to explain this food is a donut). Filled with custard, nutella, and I believe other flavors too. They have Lahmajune, (Armenian pizza), Perashki, (a long dough filled with Spinach, Potato, Mushrooms, Cheese). They also sell other types of pastries, beverages, candy, cake, chocolates, boreks, with different fillings. My favorite is the Cheese borek. Rolls too. With different fillings.. and so much more.. All I needed and was craving for was 4 of their fresh, delicious Ponchiks. They were nice enough to give me an extra one--free of charge. The smell of those Ponchiks transported me back to Armenia. It was fresh and very hot. Came straight from the fryer. Since I was going to have dinner next door, I didn't want to get full on sweets. For 4 Ponchiks I paid ($13.60). Their prices are very affordable according to the sizes of their delicious savory and sweet baked goods. If you pay with card, there is an extra $1.00 fee for processing. I paid cash. Thank you all very much. Parking is shared with other businesses, and no public restroom. Inside and outside seating.They have multiple other locations.,

I asked a few questions and then I orderd the custard ponchik which she said would be ready in 15 min. While I waited I browsed the shop and I got a few other things I wanted to try such as the yogurt soda, more from curiosity than from a craving. I also picked up a box of Nazook. My Ponchik was ready quickly and I was able to use tap and pay and then I went on with my morning. I couldn't help it I started to eat my Ponchik on the drive, it was so fresh and piping hot, so fluffy, and the custard so thick and delicious. I am definitely a fan! I LOVE custard filled things and these Ponchiks are my new obsession!

Art House Bakery makes seriously good sourdough. I picked up…read morethe Turmeric and Black Rice loaf and you can tell right away this is real, slow fermented bread. The crust is crisp and golden, and the inside is soft with a slight chew. It has that mild sourdough tang, plus a subtle earthiness from the black rice and a warm hint of turmeric. It's balanced and flavorful without being heavy. I also love how clean the ingredients are. Organic flour, filtered water, sourdough starter, salt, black rice, turmeric. No yeast, no artificial coloring. Beautiful loaf, clean ingredients, and great flavor. I'll definitely be back.

If you're into authentic artisanal baking with a modern twist, Art House Bakery is easily one of…read morethe most delightful stops on Sherman Way. From the moment you walk in, you get the sense that everything here is made with intention -- not just in presentation, but in the quality of ingredients and care in baking. First off, everything tastes genuinely fresh. Several visitors rave about how "really yummy and made with fresh ingredients!" their pastries and breads are -- and that sentiment shows up again and again in online reviews. The classic Armenian gata pastry is especially popular, with a rich, buttery flavor and just the right balance of sweetness that feels traditional but elevated. What's really impressive is how the bakery balances heritage Armenian favorites with creative, contemporary twists. On their menu you'll find staples like lavash, barbara, puri, and matnakash -- all crafted with care -- alongside sourdough loaves and specialty breads that incorporate interesting flavor elements like turmeric, pomegranate, and even charcoal. One regular reviewer called the sourdough "great flavor... crusty exterior and light, fluffy inside," which speaks to real attention to bread science and fermentation technique -- not just baking for the sake of quantity but crafting for texture and depth of taste. Beyond the bread and pastry quality, the vibe here is warm and welcoming. Reviewers consistently mention friendly staff and wonderful service, and the atmosphere feels casual and inviting -- perfect for picking up something special for breakfast, brunch, or a sweet treat with coffee. In short: Art House Bakery isn't just another run-of-the-mill bakery -- it's a place where fresh, thoughtfully chosen ingredients shine, and where you can taste the difference in every bite. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys well-crafted breads and pastries that blend tradition with creativity.

Stay for the warm service and friendliness. It's pretty classic goodies - I typically purchase things for others as I'm vegan and can't enjoy most of the rich creamy treats here though they do have some fresh bread that I've been suerte de comer. Definitely a gem of gems in the SFV beat as others have expressed. It's small inside but spacious - they do bake cakes.

Be very careful when purchasing here if you want fresh bread. The last two times my husband and I…read morehave bought here. We get so disappointed when we get home. Bc half of our bread is nice and soft fresh of the day. And half stiff possibly yesterday's bread. It's very frustrating to get home and want every single kid to have the same experience with what they're about to eat. Even myself. If you ask me. I'd go in and ask to give you (today's bread) to make sure it's fresh.

Walked in this morning a little after8:15AM, and got a warm greeting from Lilit. I believe she is the owner of the place. Got few slices of pastry, couple of ready made salads and walked out. The ambiance was nice and clean. They have freshly baked bread, salads, soups, chocolates and cakes. They can customize whatever you like for your special occasions the way that you want them to do. I have a friend that she ordered her wedding cake from them and they all loved it very much. Including myself. So, don't look elsewhere, go to this lovely, pretty, big, lit, bakery that not only serves cakes, but an impeccable customer service!! Customer service is 50% of the business. Their baked goods are not that sweet, which I like. They are very light too. Small parking lot, didn't see any restrooms and don't have a patio. Thank you all. They have been around for a little over a decade.

The woman was somewhat pleasant and the man was not. He didn't even acknowledge that I was there and needed help. Place is small and a lot of customers lined up. Since there is this high demand and hype about their lahmajune (Armenian Pizza), wanted to give it a try and see if it's worth buying. After barely finishing my one lahmajune that I got, I didn't like it. It was too greasy, but the quality of the meat was decent. I got a Fruit Tart from the bakery and 2 Mikados. Both were fresh and delicious! Ambiance of the store needs a good rub and renovation. It's old and attention must be paid!! Got my goodies and left. Prices are reasonable depending what you get. Parking is shared with multiple businesses; and I will stick to the bakeries that I know, like, and am familiar with!!

1 star Very…read moredisappointing experience today. I went into Taron Bakery and waited in line to purchase one item. While I was waiting, another woman walked in, spoke Armenian with the cashier, and was allowed to cut in front of me and place an order for around 20 items. I asked the cashier if she was going to ring me up first since I had already been waiting and only had one item. She told me no, because the woman had called in her order and they had to prioritize it. That makes absolutely no sense to me. I have called in orders to this bakery before and have still been expected to wait in line when I arrived. If the policy is that phone orders get priority, then that should be applied consistently to everyone. What bothered me most was the way I was treated when I questioned it. I felt completely disregarded and like my time didn't matter. Given that the cashier and customer were speaking Armenian together while I was being pushed aside. I don't have a problem with someone picking up a large phone order, but there needs to be a fair and consistent system. Letting someone walk in after me, cut directly in front of me, and place a huge order while I had been patiently waiting to buy one thing was incredibly disrespectful. I was so frustrated by the way I was treated that I ended up leaving without buying anything. I won't be returning.
