There are some places that become part of your family's story, and Mia's Bakery is one of ours…read more We've been coming since the day it opened on Smith Street, and everything we've tried, the rainbow cookies, the tres leches, the cheesecake, has been wonderful. But this review is about something bigger than dessert. The strawberry cheesecake here reminds me of my mom. It was her favorite, and it was one of the last desserts I got to share with her. Anytime she wanted a sweet treat, that's what she asked for. Ordering it now keeps me connected to her. This past July, on her 3rd birthday in heaven, I placed an order to celebrate her. The menu only had cherry cheesecake that day, so I wrote a note explaining what the strawberry meant to me. The staff didn't just make it happen, they sent an extra slice of strawberry cheesecake on top of it. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare. The people here have always been this kind. We love everyone who works there, and we're grateful for the small moments of care they've shown our family. Thank you for everything.

Wow! What a wonderful bakery experience. I came here to purchase about 2 or 3 slices of cake to…read morecelebrate my brother's job promotion. I wanted to get the carrot cake as opposed to the carrot cheesecake, however, it was sold out. Instead, I purchased the Slice of Red Velvet cake and a slice of Blackout cake. Each slice was approximately $9. Not a terrible price; managed to get two slice of cake for under $20. I love how there is an option to dine in here. There's a full menu of coffee beverage options to choose from and a pastry to pair it with. There are also a variety of decorative cupcakes to choose from as well. I instantly noticed the Knicks championship cupcakes when I walked in. The establishment is relatively small but you can tell that they get great business here. The staff members who I engaged with were pretty nice as well.

Savoy Bakery is a great find! The staff speaks English, and it's conveniently located right by the N and D subway stations. The atmosphere was quiet, and there was seating available, which made for a comfortable visit. Note that there is a minimum for credit card use, but the bakery items were reasonably priced at $2 each. I tried the honey ginger drink, and it was perfectly sweet--just the right balance. Overall, I had a pleasant experience and would consider returning in the future. read more

The reason being is that they bag it while it's still hot. Every baker knows this is highly unacceptable. You are supposed to let the baked item cool off completely before you place it in a container or a bag. I shouldn't have to tell them this but I had to do this twice. Not once but twice. They gave me soggy egg tarts twice and I almost forgot the one time they gave me soggy, wet bread. Very disappointed. Waste of money. Update: I went back the following day to let them know what happened and the clerks yelled and made fun of me stating that I was supposed to eat them hot and if I wanted it cold, buy it hot and just put it in the fridge. There's a difference between hot and soggy. The clerks know nothing about customer service.

The pineapple bun was one of the best I've tasted, with the best crispy top without being overly dry, and just the right amount of filling. And for the price?! Unbelievable! Each was about $2 or less! I could never get that price down south. 10/10 definitely have to go back.

Mushroom and chicken boxed rice - lots of chicken bone shards and too little pieces of Chinese sausage slices. Mixed rice noodle with fish ball - the fish ball option was something I requested for over the phone when they notified me one item that I ordered ran out. The fish ball was really tiny and on the harder side. Really not good quality fish balls. The rice noodle was not silky and smooth. The sauce was the worst part. Not enough sauce and too watered down. The flavors that's usually in the sauce were very subtle. Pork floss cheese loaf bread - the slices of bread were thick and fluffy so I was impressed. The pork floss cheese could be better. Not enough pork floss. Sounded better on paper Steamed Custard bun - it was a big bun so I excitedly ripped it apart but I found some weird charcoal color particles in the custard filling when I did that.

They also mentioned they can do cake orders with a few hours notice if they're not too busy. I haven't tried their drinks yet since I'm always there for the baked goods. There's two tables inside and they're almost always taken by local seniors enjoying their tea time. Super convenient spot right by the 18th Ave D train to grab a drink or bite.

Definitely not the best for their bread since it is very competitive in 8 Avenue the mini Chinatown. What is good and has me coming back is their Chestnut birthday cake. As for Chinese cream cakes the chestnut flavor is my favorite and in "Best Bakery" they make it very fresh and I can't find any other bakery with the same taste, not even Dragon Bay Bakery, the more popular chain bakery in this community. From childhood until my late teen years I have been getting their cakes. The smallest size is 6" I believe and also order in advance for it to be freshly made. Also making it into a certain shape will be charged extra. Personally I do not like anything else from here other than their cakes.
