Plenty of parking on the street, municipal lots, or the paid lot nearby. Space is cute. Nice seating inside and out. I got a scone, cinnamon roll, and cookie. Also wanted a brownie, but they sold out when I got to the counter. Might try the preorder system next time, as they sell out of items pretty fast. In terms of flavor, good all around. Cookie was my least favorite, as I don't like a soft cookie. Scone was super moist. I got the scone for my wife, but I was surprised how good it was. Cinnamon roll was also tasty, especially the sauce and topping. The texture of the roll itself was on the firmer side but still good. I don't have any dietary restrictions beyond being an octo-ovo veggie, so this is coming from someone who eats dairy. Prices are on the higher side, but I think that's kind of expected because of the quality. Service was good. Rating? Probably a strong 4, but I'm rounding up because places like this are rare.

What a lovely little bakery located across the street from Aloha Tower marketplace, on the corner,…read moreserving gluten-free and dairy free baked items. You would never guess that they are gluten-free and vegan. It's cute you walk in there are pictures and quotes and post-its from all over the place from people who have visited. There are a few tables and chairs outside and inside and the bakery is air-conditioned. When you walk in to the left is their display case which mainly has cookies donuts muffins bread. Then you have the ordering window, which has some of the hot items like the pizza roll. Everything that I've had has been 10 out of 10 as far as gluten-free baked items go it is great texture. Good quality made fresh. I noticed that the cookies are crunchy on the outside. Chewy on the inside, the muffins are delightful, sweet and light. The bread is quite heavy in terms of weight but as you eat it, it taste light so it is very nice and filling and has a subtle mochi or tapioca starch texture, which I love, especially if you're going to toast The bagel or the bread. This is an absolute jam when it comes to accommodating those with dietary restrictions, but even if you are not eating a restrictive diet, the baked items are really delicious too. You can order a gluten-free cake as well. Given at least five days notice ordering ahead. They don't have a designated convenient, free parking stall, but there is a paid parking open air lot across the street and also a covered underground parking structure right next-door and there's ample Street parking nearby .

The cupcakes were light, fluffy, and topped with the most deliciously smooth strawberry buttercream -- you could tell it was made with real flavor and care. The banana Nutella buttercream cake was the star of the show! Moist banana cake layered with rich, creamy Nutella buttercream that wasn't too heavy or overly sweet. Every bite was perfect. Beautiful presentation, amazing taste, and clearly made with love. We will definitely be ordering again! Thank you so so so much Cori!!!!!!

Best decision ever!…read more Was going to Cori's cake dreams for my son's birthday cake. He asked for a difficult cake, thinking I would make it. I had to look for a professional. With a friend recommendation, I looked up Cori's Cake Dreams and I now know why it's called Cori's Cake dreams. Cori the incredibly sweet baker will literally make your cake dream reality! From design, to cake texture, to frosting flavor!!! WHAT?! Such talent!!! I've ordered and tried so many cakes and some looks good but overly sweet or the cakes dry or some looks so basic but taste amazing. BUT HERE... the cake looked AMAZING AND TASTED EVEN MORE AMAZING!!! I seriously couldn't believe it. We were party host and we packed our own cake to take home. Lol. YESSS THAT GOOD. What makes ordering a cake from Cori's Cake Dreams, even better... you don't just get amazingly beautiful cakes that taste just as good as it looks. But you also get an amazingly nice baker that takes pride in her work and has such a sweet soul. Thank you Cori for being an amazing person and baker!

She makes some of the best cakes. Period. Love her strawberry shortcake, but you really can't miss…read morewhen you try any of her cakes. Her baked goods are never overly sweet and pair perfectly with a cafe drink. What makes this concept so unique is that the bakery and cafe are both located in the same area. It just makes it that much easier to enjoy very delectable baked goods and drinks when you don't need to go very far. Service is always warm and friendly, and the owner is so kind and helpful. I always like to make my way here because the interior decoration is beautiful with live plants. It definitely gives a serene feel as if you're in a Ghibli film. Every time I come here I just feel so relaxed. 5 stars always and everyone should come visit at least once to sample their goods!

Great place to study or just chat with friends. There's a few seatings indoor but a lot more outside.

Her theme was hydrangeas which is her favorite flower with mostly blue (her favorite color) and white. The picture doesn't do it justice as it came out perfectly.

The inside of the shop is relatively spacious with seating throughout; it can get a bit busy in the afternoons after school finishes. I ordered the mochi taro milk with boba and no sugar. The staff member helping me was polite, and my order came out quickly. I really liked my drink! The mochi layer had a soft, pleasing mouthfeel, and the boba was nice and chewy. The taro drink was creamy and not too sweet either, pairing really well with the mochi. Would definitely be interested in coming back to get the other drinks on their menu!

I'm not sure when this place changed owners, but I've been to this little shopping plaza before and…read moregot boba one time, but I think it's a different owner now. The parking lot was pretty empty on a weekday afternoon and there was only one person working. I really appreciated that they offered some snacks as well as their pretty extensive drink menu. There are so many boba places I would frequent more often if they also offered snacks. Uni offers cup noodle, freshly make bubble waffles, takoyaki and curry with rice! They even have combos that will save you a couple dollars if you get a milk tea with the food. Genius. I got the takoyaki and mixed fruit tea combo for $13. It doesn't sound like a deal, but I end up paying way more and wasting time going to two different stores when I want food and tea. The takoyaki was piping hot, piled with toppings and served in a little box that was really convenient for take out. The fruit tea was one of the better fruit teas I've had. I like that it had chunks of oranges and watermelon. The service was a little slow because there was only one worker, but she was really nice and trying her best. I think I'll be back if I'm in the area. They have cute looking desserts too! And plenty of places to sit with free wifi!

I've decided to update my review on Elvin's when I was caught in a bind and they came through…read more However, it wasn't all cherries. You see, last Christmas I gave you my heart and the very next day, you gave it away. This year, to save me from tears........no, no. This never happened to me but Wham's "Last Christmas" which was written by George Michael, is overly played during the holidays in Japan. On a serious note, last Christmas I was jonesing for a yule log. I saw posts on IG and when I attempted to order one at a bakery on S King St, I was advised it was too late. At a Japanese themed bakery I was offered the option of a Christmas cake but wasn't in a mood for strawberry shortcake. I was on a mission. I recall attending a Christmas dinner at my cousin's a few years back where someone brought Yule logs and found that they were from Elvin's Bakery (EB). I also did a search on EB's photo gallery and saw one posted so I gave them a call. Placing an order via telephone was literally a piece of cake. It was confirmed to a tee and was also advised their closing on Christmas Day so pick up would be on Christmas Eve. I made payment over the phone. All done. The Yule log was a hit at Christmas dinner where it was visually stunning and tasty. It was not overly sweet nor dry. Well executed and decorated beautifully. So why not 5-stars? Picking it up was a shocker when the Yule log was placed in a cake box that clearly was meant for a 1/2 sheet cake (?) size so you had to be extra careful when transporting and storing. There was no support nor fillers in the box for the quite empty box as the Yule log was not meant for the box provided. In closing, I'm grateful EB came through with an amazing dessert for our holiday dinner but was caught off guard with their boxing. I'll need to think twice about ordering a Yule log again from them and will definitely order earlier and seek the options on Oahu before deciding on where to go.
