Praline Pecan & Cream Cheese Cake
Marian H.

We ordered a cake for my father's 76th birthday. It was delicious. It was no slices left. The staff was amazing in helping us decide on the cake and size. The store was really nice & clean. I will be back the next time Im in town.

Fresh Strawberry Cake
Missy K.

The Ambrosia Bakery on Siegen Lane has some of the best desserts in Baton Rouge. My all-time favorite is their fresh strawberry cake. It's always incredibly moist, full of real strawberry flavor, and perfectly sweet without being overwhelming. The service is consistently great, with a friendly team that makes every visit enjoyable. If you choose to dine in, the cozy café-style atmosphere makes it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy something sweet.

Custom Birthday Cake
Traechel M.

Ambrosia is truly a Baton Rouge staple. I've ordered just about every birthday cake over the last 8 years from them. The quality and taste is consistent. The ordering process for custom cakes is really seamless! And they can create just about anything you like. They also made my wedding cake 3 years ago! I will be a life long customer. If you haven't experienced Ambrosia, definitely try their signature strawberry cake! It's top tier for sure!

A dessert lover's heaven.. myself included! From doughnuts to cake pops to cannolis to bread, Ambrosia literally has it all, and you don't even need to order ahead because all of this was in the case! Right on Siegen, this is the perfect location for a bakery in my opinion. It is a huge building with plenty of parking, and you can see it clearly from the street unlike most bakeries. I went at 8:30am on Saturday, and there were customers! I didn't wait in a line because they were tons of employees working, which I really liked. I just wanted to pick up some late Valentines treats for some friends, so I just wanted a treat box. Everything was displayed perfectly and prices were easily read. Again, so many options to pick from. I ended up going with this huge brownie thing, two cookies, two cake pops, and a cream puff. I thought I was going to break the bank, but man I was wrong. All of this was under $20 and was ready when I was done deciding what I want. I was so pleasantly surprised. They also had treats displayed around the store if you didn't want to pick out of the case. For wedding cakes, they have their own part of the store! They did a really good job organizing this bakery and making room for everything. I will totally be back with an empty stomach haha.

I had the best experience ordering my son's first birthday cake from Ambrosia! After several guests canceled, they were quick and kind in helping me adjust my order. On top of that, they called me back after noticing I ordered a small cake as a smash cake and let me know they offer one for free for first birthdays. Such thoughtful service. On top of that, the cake was exactly what I wanted--simple, beautiful and delicious! My guests loved it. Highly recommend the yellow cake with a chocolate buttercream filling and white icing. Exactly what a birthday cake should be! Beyond pleased--we will continue to use Ambrosia for our celebrations.

Jambalaya Quesadillas

Stopped in today and the jambalaya quesadilla was incredible. Haven't tried my baked goods yet but grabbed a few for the road. Can't wait to make my way though the menu.

They have a very inviting environment. Their variety of Sweet treats makes it difficult to only buy what you were looking for. Hmmm.

This is for their catering- I had a business meeting and for lunch, they ordered Jason's Deli. We…read morehad to pick what we wanted a couple days before the meeting, so we could get what we wanted. For catering, I was surprised at how many options there were! There was salads, sandwiches, vegetarian options and lots of sides and dessert options. Because I didn't know if the sandwiches would come with sauce on them, which I don't like, I opted for a Cesar salad with a brownie. During our meeting before lunch, Jason's Deli delivered our boxes and put our names on the boxes so you knew which one was yours. I really liked this inside of just categorizing by lunch type: sandwich, salad, soup. When I opened my box, my Cesar salad was there with a big cup of dressing on the side. There was also two slices of bread and my delicious brownie. The salad was delicious and so was the bread and brownie. If I'm ever needing to cater for something, I am definitely doing Jason's Deli!

The muffalata sandwich was average, you only get to choose from ham & salami or turkey. When ordering we got the quarter muffalata special, the guy made it sound like you had to choose between ham, salami or turkey. It tasted decent, but not the real deal. Currently they have French onion soup, delicious! It was full of onions. Would def get it again. The salad bar was constantly being refreshed with new food. $7.79 and you can get a "side salad". I was so filled from the salad I didn't even need the sandwich. For $20 you have 2 full meals. Can't beat that.

Iverstine is a great lunch spot in Baton Rouge…read more I am always on the lookout for new lunch spots. We often hit up the safe few and it's hard to get the team to venture out. I saw Iverstines in a YouTube clip and it looked intriguing. Apparently it's intriguing to lots of people because it was packed when we went. Despite the crowd, the wait was brief and the staff was friendly and keeping people moving. On our first visit we got sandwiches. The Cuban was a great choice. It was everything a Cuban should be. I would've liked more mustard but it was the best Cuban I've had in BR. Next trip we did a plate lunch. At the recommendation of a dude in line, I got the Tri tip. Solid choice. The green beans on the side were very good. In addition to the lunches, Iverstine is a full butcher. I will report back when I try some of their pre packed stuff. PS. They sell a hat with a piece of bacon on it that says Thiccccc. If anyone wants to get me that as a Christmas gift, I promise to change my profile photo to me in that hat.
