This place is definitely a bakery. Breakfast plates no thank you. I got the eggs and beef short rib. The sauce on the short rib was pretty bad. The breakfast potato's were soggy, blah. Sad that the espresso machines were down today. Dogs are allowed. Saw a little lap dog in there.

I was seeking a cake not frosted with Buttercream, or not frosted at all, so I thought I'd give this a try. I really wanted the Taro Cake but whimped out when considering the taste of who I'd be sharing it with, but did get to try it. It taste, both in profile & texture, like a sweet potato. Purchased a Vanilla Strawberry Fresh Cream Cake. It was light in texture, not terribly different from Angel Food Cake, but absent of other flavors. Less sweet cakes often have overtones of almond or citrus that shine through, but this tasted like a vanilla cake minus the sugar. When I sliced into it I was hoping for more of a strawberry puree inside, but it appeared to be just sliced strawberries & a whole lot of unsweetened whipped cream. A little 1 dimensional for me. It was packaged beautifully w/ a lady finger & birthday candle. The gentleman working the counter was super helpful & I look forward to trying the Matcha & other flavors in the future. This one was a miss for me. While I barely have a sweet tooth, I need a little more going on than what was presented. That's a preference, not a criticism.

Also the gulab jamun inside was very well incorporated not overbearing. I could eat an entire cake myself.

I like tradition American pretzels better. The donuts were good- much better than a national donut chain. But, some of the groceries, particularly Giant and the Acme have vanilla cream donuts that would compare to these donuts. The vanilla frosted donut had a different cake flavor/consistency than most bakeries. I would recommend this donut to try. The pies did not come in individual slices- so I did not try the pie. My husband is a butter cookie fan at other bakery. He said they were too buttery. The bakery was clean, and the woman behind the counter was really quite helpful checking on an ingredient for us.

There was a lady working, and I am *assuming* it was her store. The young staff persons kept asking her questions about how to ring people up, etc., so it felt like it was her store. She and the younger staff were really kind! I purchased a cheesecake and some cookies. Everything was excellent! They also had some seasonal cookies like St. Patrick's Day, and a king cake for Mardi Gras. Everything was tasty, the staff was friendly, and the prices were decent! There was not a huge selection of goods, and this could have been because of the time of day I was there, but I'd like to go in and see the cases more filled. I'll definitely be back!
