Amazing Customer Service and Delicious Croissants at Caffè Positano!…read more Had a wonderful experience at Caffè Positano! The customer service was fantastic, and the staff were friendly, welcoming, and made us feel right at home. The highlight was definitely the amazing croissant! Fresh, delicious, and the perfect treat to pair with a great cup of coffee. Sometimes, it's the simple things that make an experience memorable, and this place gets it right! If you're looking for a cozy café with delicious pastries, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere, Caffè Positano is definitely worth a visit. Huge thanks to the team for making the experience so enjoyable. Highly recommended for your next coffee and croissant stop!

We stopped by this Saturday and waited in line looking forward to a warm, flavorful cinnamon twist…read more Unfortunately, what we received was a pastry that appeared underbaked and lacked the texture and flavor we expected. The location and menu are appealing, but based on our visit, the quality of the pastries was disappointing. We hope the bakery reviews its baking consistency and quality control so future customers have a better experience. Our friendly advice: if you're stopping by for coffee and pastries, you may want to consider getting your coffee elsewhere until the pastry quality improves.

I stumbled upon this place right before Pilates and saw the sumptuous special! The girl told me…read moreabout it and my eyes lit up and I wanted it so bad, but my friend Perla said, "No, we got to go!" Not the best thing to have right before Pilates. The next time we went was after Pilates and I asked my friend if she wanted to share it and she agreed this time! I was so excited to try it! The owner was very sweet she let us try samples of the new marshmallow ice cream that they are testing out. It was so good! I ordered the sumptuous special with frozen hot chocolate. She made it aesthetically pleasing. They asked how I wanted it and I said picture perfect! Watching her make it was so fun and jaw dropping. I was in such awe! The marshmallow alone was so amazing to watch! It was so good and made with such good ingredients. I did share a bit with my friend, but boy I had basically the whole thing to myself and it was perfect. The frozen hot chocolate was bittersweet too. So it was balanced with the cookie, marshmallow, and cream. The perfect amount of sweetness for me. It was pricey, but it was worth it! Well worth it to try it at least once! I am absolutely coming back again!

OMG... these cookies did NOT disappoint…read more We ordered the "most popular" dozen to-go, and from the second we opened the box, we knew we were in trouble (in the best way). Every single cookie looked incredible -- and somehow tasted even better. Let me start with what these are not... These are NOT your typical over-the-top, overly sugary, same-tasting cookies where everything is piled high with toppings and ends up blending together. These feel like true homemade cookies -- soft, gooey, rich, and perfectly balanced. The kind that melt in your mouth and make you immediately reach for another. Favorites? Honestly, it's hard to pick: * The double chocolate was unreal * The raspberry had such a great flavor twist * The churro was unexpected and so good Every single one had its own unique flavor, and nothing felt repetitive. And let's just say... this box disappeared fast. I also love that this is a smaller, mom-and-pop style shop. You can taste the quality and care in what they're making. We ordered delivery, which was super convenient, and I'm so glad we did. Hands down, this is a place I'll be ordering from again and again. If you're debating it -- just do it. Five stars all the way.

The day of our event executive chef Derek and his team arrived on time and set up a beautiful spread. The team LOVED the food.

We look forward to having them back for more of our events.

Included are pictures from a recent sampling in advance of a special event. Yummy! Highlights: wild mushroom risotto, Baja fish taco with lemon aoli, Hasselback Potatoes, Rosemary-Garlic Fingerling, Hummus cups with cucumber and carrots, Pigs in a blanket (GF) with Dijon mustard, Filet Mignon with Bearnaise (Side) & Garlic-Herb Compound Butter, Browned Butter & Honey-Garlic Salmon, and, of course, GF cupcakes.

The menu is on the left side, while you order on the right side. I thought that was a little difficult to read while standing in line. The drinks are pretty basic, from what I was looking at I don't think they have any seasonal specials. However they had teas and pastries to enjoy as well. My friend ordered a ~$6.25, Medium Iced Caramel (Sauce) Latte with Oat Milk. He said it had a good flavor and enjoyed it. I tried their $5.25, Small Iced Vanilla Latte with Whole Milk. Despite being on the smaller side, the drink was more milky than I'd prefer it being. However, the taste of the vanilla was nice. The prices being under $7-8 for iced lattes is really nice! Especially in RSF I thought they'd make it more expensive. (Idk first time in the area). If I'm in the area, I'll take another look at the menu and try something else.

They also have seating outdoors surrounded in a picturesque garden of flowers! What is outstanding are the fantastically delicious sandwiches and sweets Marlene has concocted herself. Always fresh and scrumptious. The soup also makes your taste buds sing! I have had the potato soup and it is out of this world delicious. You can also appreciate how the fruits are served---all cut out so perfectly in hearts and flowers! The service is always outstanding. The staff are very accommodating and patient. Highly recommend this tearoom and will continue to take my friends and family there to enjoy.

I was hoping for a warmer, more welcoming experience, especially for a tea party setting. The staff could have been more attentive when serving and made more of an effort to interact with us. At times, it honestly felt like we were in their way rather than guests they were happy to have there. Overall, it's a very cute pink place, but it definitely lacked the hospitality and special touch I was expecting.

Once a high end hat shop, it is now a really cute gelato shop with the hats as a backdrop. The staff was really good at explaining the gelato flavor profiles as well as providing samples. After tasting a few, I settled on strawberry & pistachio in the "Party Hat - Waffle Cone". The cost was $8.45 ($9.18 w tax). Definitely a guilty pleasure splurge but soooooo worth it .

The decor was really cute, I am enamored with the idea that they incorporate the name of the previous shop into the shop name. The ice cream cones were decorated with hats, love!

Cheese Garden, also now known as Mad for Cheesecake, lives up to the hype! I had this place…read morebookmarked and finally had a chance to give it a try. To be honest, as I saw reviews come in for this location and their National City location, I became skeptical - many noted it to be mediocre, especially for the price. However, with everything being pricey, the work that goes into making these, and the quality of ingredients used, I think it is overall appropriately priced - the whole 4.5" cheesecakes are on the higher side, but the slices, which come from a what I believe is a 8" or 9" cheesecake, are reasonable (original was $7.50, matcha was $8.50). Both the matcha tirmaisu and the original from age slice were tasty and light. If I had to choose, I would get the original slice again. It was beautifully balanced, and once all defrosted, tasted like a cross between mousse, cheesecake, and the inside of cream puff, all sitting on top of a delicate cake crust. One last thing, just wanted to give a shout out to the male employee who helped us tonight! Wonderful customer service, taking the time to explain the products, and ensuring the highest quality of the products being delivered. We will be back! Can't wait!

It was a flavor bomb. The ratio of espresso to milk and foam was perfect for the cappuccino, and one of the things that I appreciated was that the lid was not plastic; it was made of paper like the cup. They are an Italian bakery, so they had many delicious looking pastries, which I'll have try next time. They're located in a little shopping center, so there's plenty of parking.

I'm a huge fan of the Italian minimalist approach to sandwiches: every ingredient's a shining star, especially the bread. truthly, I'm also a huge fan of the American-style where the filling's supersized and point of the bread's to keep your mits clean. Dolce Aroma's definitely on the less-is-more end of that sammie spectrum. they succeed spectacularly. the wife-unit had the POSILLIPO (prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, arugula, and olive oil on a warm baguette). I had the VESUVIO (prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, Italian cream, fig jam, and arugula on a warm baguette). the bread was perfect with a dense chew. love the sweetness of the cream and fig jam, nice counterpoints to the salty prosciutto and the peppery arugula. thoroughly enjoyed my sandwich. my only gripe is with the price point, an issue I almost never raise. nearly twenty bucks is a lot to spend for a sandwich. the ratio of what you pay for to what you get here's a bit steep. I'm mostly okay with that but be aware.
