The Grinch cupcakes (key lime cake, pineapple filling, and coconut icing), vanilla cupcake, and cinnamon cupcake with eggnog buttercream
Chelsea M.

My husband and I stopped here today after reading the great reviews. We have been tricked by the rave reviews of other places before, but this bakery lived up to the hype. The bakery is eclectic and fun. The flavors and themes for Christmas were cute and fun. I tried a plain vanilla cupcake, the Grinch cupcake, and a cupcake with eggnog buttercream. All three cupcakes were very good. The icing was the correct texture and the flavors were on point. The cupcakes themselves were also moist and well made. Overall this is our favorite bakery in Maryland, although it doesn't live up to some of our favorite bakeries privately owned nationwide.

Had a sweet tooth craving and after the reco of my coworker informing me of this establishment being on Cake Wars my tastebuds compelled me to check them out. Located in a outdoor mini mall area you could easily not notice it's presence unless your a regular. However, inside is a cake wonder land filled with a smorgasbord of sugary samples sprinkled around the shop that would satisfy any sweet thooth. Say that 3x's fast I dare ya. I keep my focus as I eyed the many deserts and finally narrowed it down to cup cakes. They have many different varieties and sizes. The larger cupcakes has creme filling which really drew my attention. They had to be the size of a Baseball! The presentation is great as they all looked so delicious but decided on a red velvet and chocolate cupcake. I could hardly wait as the kind attendant bagged them up. Where the issue is for me after I decided to snag a little bite during work was that the cup cake was cold so cold the frosting was crusted like if you leave it out too long uncovered. My imagination of the fork carving through a fluffy moist cup cake was shattered. So I decided to let it get room temp to see what happens. Got home and for dinner decided to try again because moms didn't raise no quitter. This time the icing was room temp , the fork went through the cup cake , the cake was moist nooooooooooooo. The cake was very dry and the filling inside I didn't see until I got mid way through the cup cake which wasn't much. All in all it looked beautiful the cost really isn't bad about less than/ or $3 per creme filled cupcake. The regular sized ones are less than that. But the crusted icing and dry cupcake left a bad taste. I'm willing to try some other cupcakes just the ones that aren't refrigerated.

Got my little wedding cake here and they did perfect! Cake ended up only being $25 + $15 for the flowers a few stores down. Affordable, beautiful, and delicious.

The 2 cakes are made by Starry Night Bakery.

I've had 4 cakes made by them and they all tasted amazing! I recently had them make 3 cakes for my wedding party and while the design of 2 of the cakes wasn't what I expected, they were quick to remedy the situation the best they could. I was a bit upset about the two smaller cakes, but my guests didn't know the difference and we all loved the taste. I definitely recommend the lemon cake!

Starry Night Bakery has been around since '02 and is owned by pastry chef, Shannon. They offer a variety of desserts, such as cheesecakes, vegan/GF options, cupcakes, plated desserts, cookies, biscotti, muffins, scones, cinnamon rolls, hot/cold beverages, sandwiches, and custom-order cakes. I tried their Peanut Butter Brownie mini cheesecake (this was soft and delicate, and the peanut butter taste was the mini pb chips that decorated the top); a Mahoo Wahoo cupcake (Kona coffee chocolate with espresso glaze and espresso buttercream; this was actually featured on the 'Cupcake Wars' - while tasting the best out of the 3 cupcakes that were ordered, it was a little dry and not at all sweet), VooDoo cupcake (caramel espresso; there was hardly any caramel or espresso taste to this one; super bland), and a Lemon cupcake (also no taste and no hint of lemon flavor). The hubs ordered some sugar cookies (one rainbow and one blue sugar), and while he thought they were okay, I thought they tasted kind of stale and off! I really liked the look of the bakery, as it was a mix of vibrant purples and blacks, retro, and punk, all rolled into one - a cute little vintage stove with little baskets of packaged cookies and biscottis on display. Service was a little standoffish. There are also a handful of tables inside where you can enjoy your food, but we had ours to-go. I may be curious in trying out their 'Spam Slider' the next time if I were to come back! +bland, dry cupcakes T____T +stale sugar cookies T____T +standoffish service T____T +eclectic decor

I had my wedding this weekend (11/18/17) and got a dessert bar with Starry Night. First and foremost, the owner Shannon was absolutely lovely to work with. When I went in for a tasting she gave me so many wonderful suggestions that the guests ended up loving. I have celiac disease as does my grandpa and aunt and the gluten free cupcakes were perfection. I can't imagine how good the regular cupcakes for the guests tasted. We also got 4 types of mini pies, cannolis, and chocolate chip cookies that people went nuts for. I had so many people ask who the vendor was so they could visit their shop. On top of it the display looked adorable. I wish my wedding photos were in so I could post a better picture of the display. So thank you to Starry Night for helping my day be even more special.

A smash cake to compliment the Where the Wild Things Are cake served to my sons 1St Birthday guests.

I rarely visit a place twice (because there's so many good food places out there) but I ended up eating here twice in one day on our trip because of all the glowing reviews. I had not and still have not heard one negative thing about their food, including the reviews and the friendly faces eating around us; seems like the only way to go wrong is if you don't eat here!

Look, I enjoy my animal proteins quite a lot thankyouverymuch, but I have earnestly been transitioning to a more plant-forward diet due to a number reasons (hey, probably the same as yours!). Mosty I admire how the best plant-based chefs can make their recipes flavorful and filling...because it's literally more difficult from a scientific point of view (glutamates, etc.)! Over the course of two lunches and dinner offered by Simply Vegan, I can say that Nikevia really topped the charts in terms of wonderful vegan chefs. The multi-course menus were hearty, fresh, FLAVORFUL and delicious without feeling heavy at all. She had a wonderful touch with flavored waters (yes, she even flavors them better than anyone I've known!) and personal service. I very much hope that I find the occasion to have her cater an event that I organize! Or, at the very least, that others will take this review as a serious endorsement of her cooking chops. Please consider this wonderful chef and her company for your next event. Thank you, Nikevia!!

I ordered the following items on Uber Eats: - Curry Puffs - Vegan Nuggets - Salt & Pepper Tofu - Black Pepper Ban Mein w/ Thick Noodles The portion sizes for the main dishes (Salt & Pepper Tofu and Ban Mein) were generous, about 2-3 servings and shareable. Which is pretty amazing considering the Ban Mein was $10 (on Uber Eats). I made sure to try a mix of dishes that both featured and didn't include meat substitutes...I was WOW'd by all of the food! As a meat eater, the vegan beef in the Ban Mein was very well seasoned and the flavor indiscernible from real meat. I was especially shocked by how much I enjoyed the vegan nuggets. They had a slightly nutty flavor (likely due to the oil) and a great texture. The salt & pepper tofu and curry puffs were standard, but good. Overall, the food at this restaurant runs a little spicier than usual American Chinese spots. Flavors like curry and five spice came through more, and two of the dishes I ordered used fresh peppers (instead of just pepper flakes). I loved it and will be ordering again!

No onion no garlic restaurant....always a stop from a trip up north …read more I ordered these dishes recently; C4 Mapo Tofu - best vegetarian mapo tofu in all dmv vegetarian restos C5 Salt and Pepper Tofu - best dish for the fried at heart peeps. You have to spread the toppings so when you bite into the tofu, there is some flavor. best eaten once the dish comes out of the kitchen S5 Taro balls - breaded mashed taro needs the sauce that comes with it. Taro is a root often used in Chinese dishes and a healthy carb. Fried may be a different matter so that should balance out lol S9 Fried Wonton - not bad but all carbs; ratio of filling to wrap is 1:6,. While I liked it I wish there were more filling S13 Curry Puff - curried mashed potato in pastry. I like the taste and pastry, though the mouth feel is a bit weird. Better if potatoes were diced then it's similar to a samosa. Have ordered Thai green curry in the past and I love that. Green beans are good as well. Every thing is served in take out boxes and they have seating if you want to eat there. While I'm not a fan of that they use paper containers and most likely compostable and I probably should find out. Happy we have this restaurant in the DMV.

My favorite thing is ordering buffalo chicken drummies and adding them to the mac n cheese to make buffalo mac! They should add it as a menu item cause it's bomb.
