This is really a cake place which has some good Indian vegetarian street food. Food was tasty - both the Samosa chaat and the Bhel Puri were flavorful and delicious. Food is tasty and gets 4 stars. It took close to 30 minutes to get our food when there was nobody else in the restaurant. Service gets 3 stars. Overall rating 3.5 stars. I'll go back when I have plenty of time as I liked the food and would like to try some of their other snacks. read more

At this point, I think they should just give me my own chair here at The Cake Corner in Mira Mesa because I'm basically a regular. Every visit feels like a mini trip back to Mumbai street stalls--without the traffic. The Vada Pav is my go-to: perfectly spiced potato fritter tucked into pillowy bread with just the right kick. The Dabeli? Sweet, spicy, crunchy, tangy--seriously, every bite feels like a flavor firework show. And the Dahi Puri is dangerously addictive. One second you're thinking "just one," and the next second... the plate's gone. Don't forget a slice of Black Forest since thing might get a bit spicy. The staff always makes it a welcoming stop, and they're quick even when it's busy. Between the food and the vibe, it's no wonder I keep coming back. read more

This is the spot for Mumbai street food! Cake Korner is a regular stop for us, to load up on dabeli, vada pav, and all the puris. My kids love the traditional Indian version of Black Forest cake too. This space is pretty sparse, but it's clean and the food is consistent. Prices competitive too, which keeps a steady stream of clients here whenever we drop in. Service is friendly, there's always parking, plus it's easy to drop in the grocery nearby too. read more

The mango cake was pleasant and very tasty. The service was kind and welcoming. I'm not of Indian descent so I stood out from the diners and customers. nonetheless everyone was kind and helpful. Big venue with lots of space (almost too much space). Menu looked interesting and there were plenty of cakes on a Saturday afternoon. I came for the mango cake and to bring some taste of home for a friend missing home far away. The cake was lovely and well flavored -- not too sweet, moist, and mangoey. :) Definitely recommend and will return to try other options! read more

I stopped by The Caked Corner for a few slices of cake and ended up getting such a fun surprise--they also have Indian treats and mango lassi! I wasn't expecting that, but honestly, it made the visit even better. Of course, I had to grab a lassi, and it was so good--creamy, refreshing, and the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. The cakes? Amazing. Moist, flavorful, and exactly what you want when you're craving something sweet. But what really made the experience great was the person at the counter--super nice, helpful, and just really made the whole visit feel welcoming. The atmosphere felt very open, it wasn't very busy but plenty of space to enjoy your dessert. If you love desserts (or just love trying new things), you should definitely check this place out. Whether you're grabbing a classic slice of cake or branching out with something new, The Caked Corner is totally worth a visit. I'll definitely be back! read more

Cake hella tastyyyy. Taste just like the bakeries in India (amdavad). Their mango is really good but their Black Forest is ON TOP. Tried the puffs too and they are not bad at all!! I think the ambiance is just ok tho. They can definitely jazz it up a bit and it might attract more customers, we usually do to go. If you want a specific flavor you have to order 3 days in advance unfortunately. But they should probably have some available even if you just drop in. The cake is not too sweet and delicious chocolate taste with the light fluffy cream, I wanted to keep eating it! My mom doesn't like cakes and baked stuff as much but even she devoured it. Def recommend if you are looking for a good eggless option read more

This is literally the first Indian food place I actually liked. I have tried quite few other Indian restaurants, but they never able to trigger my taste bugs. This one finally did it! I got more curious about Indian cuisine and bakery. :) The Vada Pav is full of flavor. I love the crunchiness of the pav, and the potato. At the same time, the potato is filled with refreshing flavor from all the ingredients with a slight spicy kick. I love it! Definitely a must! I also tried the Ras Malai cake, holy molly, this one is legit! One of the most unique cake flavor. Every bites feel refreshing. Its got a nice hint of mint and lemon. Not sure what is in the cake, but dang! I can't wait to try again next weekend. It's like drug! I'm getting the whole cake! :D The Mango Lassi is also great. Great mango flavor with nice yogurt texture. It is quite different from the usual yogurt drink. I feel like I can live 1000 years after the drink. The service is excellent. The tiny girl at the counter is very friendly with great smiles. Keep up the good work!! Cheers!! and thank you for the great food! I'm looking forward to explore all the unique offers ~ ^_^ read more

I came here once before in August, they had pani puri and mango as well as rose lassi. I got my mom a snack when we was grocery shopping in the same shopping center across the lot. They took Apple Pay. It's a smaller option than what used to be here, but it's a new business and they are kind. They have a nice, clean bathroom and the store is spacious for oncoming customers to come inside so it's good for people traffic. I would definitely go back because the flavors were good. I will have to try some of their cake next time. read more

This place has a variety of eggless cakes. We tried the mango whole cake. It was so good and we could taste the mango in the puree and in the mango cream. The cake itself was so light and delicious. I ended up eating 2 slices of the cake. They do decor on the cake and also the writing. They also have other flavors like Rasmalai, Falooda, butterscotch. Definitely recommend trying this place if you or you're family members do not eat egg read more

I would give zero star if I could. Very bad and rude customer service. I purchased an 8 inch Black Forest cake and gave 15% tip. The cake serves 10 people. I asked you please give 10 serving plates as we wanted to cut cake in a class. They said no we cannot give plates and were at all understanding. I had to cancel the order as without plates we cannot serve the cake. It was such a mood spoiler experience. Only a week back, I had ordered two 8-inches cakes from them (take out). If I had ordered one pastry and asking for 10 plates... I can understand if they say no but if someone is ordering entire cake for 10 people and they cannot give 10 small serving plates is beyond explanation. Pathetic customer service. read more

Formerly surati Farsan which used to be my all time favorite chaat place in all of San Diego is now the cake korner. They have some pastry options and some chaat options still but definitely not the same chaat I used to get. Still pretty cheap at about $8 for a plate of chaat. Ingredients are fresh but just not the same. read more

Overall, had a good experience here something things were excellent and some not so Pav bhaji was absolutely amazing like one of the best I've had in a long time Dabeli was also pretty good on the sweeter side with peanuts. I liked it. We had a paneer pizza, which also my son liked very much The potato puff was really good. The vegetable puff was so so. We had the pineapple cake, Rasmalai cake, and the butterscotch cake. All of them were just OK. I was expecting them to be a lot better. Definitely will be coming back here, especially for the pav bhaji and dabeli read more

It's so hard to find eggless cakes and this place sells delicious ones. The chocolate mousse and Black Forest are my absolute favorites being a chocoholic, but I've tried the tiramisu and the pistachio and they're good too. I prefer it as a take out place for cake so I can have it with morning coffee at home. The cakes refrigerate well. Service is good: it's not really the right ambience to sit and eat because the place feels like it's a small cake storefront spread out in a high ceiling huge eatery space! Did I mention you HAVE to try the chocolate mousse cake? read more

I have been on a sweet craving as of late. I came by to try some cake, I went by looking for my favorite Indian restaurant, sadly it succumbed to post pandemic restaurant death :( But in that drive through the parking I found this gem!!! As I mentioned, I have had a craving for cake. And well, cake was in the name. So I parked the car and popped in. Well. These kids have cake!!' I couldn't make up my mind right away. But somehow the Mango Slice and I think it was a pistachio and honey slice, made it into my bag. Since I was trying to also "adult" I also got paneer tiki puff and a potato chili puff! Out Of This World All of these flavors will wow you. Stop by, you'll be happy :) read more

Vegan strawberry cake is awesome! $5/slice and it's delicious and light. Strawberry doesn't taste fake. Too bad they don't have vegan food. Have gone there twice in a week for my husband's birthday treat- he's obsessed. So glad we found this hidden gem! read more

This review is purely for take out... we stopped by after lunch to pick up a few sweet treats... We tried a slice each of the pineapple cake, butterscotch cake and the cassata cake (daily special). They were perfectly moist, spongy and not overly sweet....very nostalgic of flavors and treats available in India. While the space itself currently seemed a rather empty as compared to the prior occupants, I'm guessing this must be a part of this restaurants growth. Service was prompt and courteous. The menu seemed to offer a large number of other savory items for dine-in, and an interesting list of drinks, so can't wait to come try them out! read more

They create delectable cakes! Sometimes I crave a plain store bought cake. But now I've discovered a this new shop. Their menu included a range of fruit cakes and cafe-style food. I chose the pistachio cake, which was excellent. The crème on the cake was flawless, and it was not extremely sweet. The cake itself was soft and moist. I also sampled the butterscotch flavor, and it tasted exactly like it. I will certainly return to try more. read more

I've always had great service and great food and great chai - definitely can't forget the chai - since the day they opened. If you haven't been here you need to come by. Oddly enough I've never had the cake which I guess is one of their reasons for being. I'll have to try it and let you know how that is... read more

You HAVE TO TRY THE PANEER PANINI SANDWICH! The best dish on their menu! We ordered this for our daughter's bday party and all the guests loved it. Cakes are all eggless and delish. Not too sweet which I like. read more

Nice food not too spicy Owner & associates very helpful too There eggless pastries are yummy read more

Came here because I needed a cake last minute for a family event. There was no one inside and only one person working. I got a mango cake and a gulab jamun slice for myself while waiting for her to pack the cake. Really reasonable prices and super moist cake. I really appreciate seeing an Indian owned bakery in this area since I don't think it's too common and their flavors are definitely unique. Can't wait to come back read more

So we ordered a few chaats, pizza, mango lassi, chai, coffee, mango cake and ras malai cake. The cakes were really delicious. Coffee was nice too and chai was masala chai. No choice. All chaats had the same taste. More sauce than solids. Customer service was awful. While ordering at the counter, I asked the girl why dont they have the option of plain tea as everyone doesnt like masala chai, she very rudely replied that this is what we have and talk to the owner. The other strange thing was that we couldnt sit together. We were a party of 7. They would not move the tables. Its a huge place but few tables. Over all the food and attitude put us off and we would not like to go there again. read more

Food and bakery items are so good. I usually prefer this place to buy cakes because they have eggless cakes varieties.

Food is great, service is awful. My father asked the lady working if any mango cakes were available she said yes and then goes to check in the back but suddenly there are none so he leaves. I order from home over the phone because she always says what I want is out of stock. The other guy working, Parshotam (very awesome service)picks up the phone and says yes there is a cake available immediately (surprising) and gets the cake ready to go. My father goes back inside to pick up my cake and the lady is still denying the order in a very rude and unprofessional manner. The lady continues to rudely question my father about where this order came from and when Parshotam comes out the lady asks him if there were any orders for the mango cakes. when he says yes she says "oh it must be his then" in a passive aggressive tone. in the end, Parshotam is amazing and saved my birthday. read more

Got the vada pav, and it was very yummy! The pav bread was SO GOOD. The chewiness paired with it being perfectly buttered and toasted was amazing. The combinations of textures and flavors in this vada pav was great, and it was very satisfying read more

I've been waiting and hoping that an Indian cafe would open up close to my house. And it finally did!!!! So I came here and tried 3 types of cakes before ordering a large one for an event; Butterscotch, Falooda, and Mango. Oh boy, the Falooda and mango were the bomb! I also ordered Falooda smoothie and Paneer puff, both are pretty good. Will come back to bring my family to try more of their pastries. They just opened couple months ago and I always like to support new business. 4 stars for the customer service and the quality and taste of the food. read more

Take out review - everythign is probably much better eaten dine in. Though their name mentions cake, their snacks/food selection is awosome - especially for street food fare. Amul Cheese pizza - 5/5 - This right here is that hit of pure 90s kid nostalgia before Dominos/Pizza hut came in with their pizzas. Premade base topped with tomato based sauces with onions/capsicum with copious amounts of Amul cheese. Just perfect. Would go here just to get a fix of this every so often. Vada Pav - 4/5 Pretty decent compared to the ones ive eaten in the US. Wouldve loved more dry garlic chutney. Dabeli - 3/5 The stuffing is pretty good, and i think it would totally be elevated with pomergranate and toasted with butter on both sides like you get in India Manchurian Roll/ Frankie - Both of these were okay - i reckon they will taste much better eaten dine in. Assorted puffs - 5/5 - I have no idea why these arent available in this county - puff pasty with fillings. The flaky puff pastry on these is just great - again very reminiscent of ones you get in india. We did try slices of their Mango Mousse cake and their Butterscotch cake - both were pretty yummy - light and flavourful. read more

Great Indian snacks and amazing fresh tea would definitely visit again and recommend to others

So disappointed with my cake order with them. First the design was not the one that was shared in the email by them. Secondly the amount of cream they had put on top was horrendous. There was such a thick layer of cream which most kids did not like either. Thirdly the cake tasted no where close to a black forest cake - it was full of only cream flavor. Very bad experience. read more

So here is the replacement for the previous joint and it seems about the same menu items except for cakes and pastries. It's a bakery and a cafe and a snack shop. It's opened just recently and will be too early to visit with higher expectations however the samosa chaat I had was very good. Their chhole (garbanzo beans) are good enough to tell me that there is good stuff in their menu. read more

!!!!! The cost of a custom-made cake is around $240 !!!! Food - Poor tasting. They began with better tasting , high quality food but these days , it is pathethic Service - Slow and rude Ambiance - Unclean. Tables are never clean. They expect the customers to clean after. again , the cost of a custom-made cake is around $240 !!!! Looks like this cake might also invite people , sing the birthday song and do a little dance :) I have seen the pics in reviews here. They are not even worth more than $50 read more

my friends brought me a fabulous mango birthday cake, as good as any ever. made with the famous Alphonso Indian mangos available by can, (or could have been Kesar) lovely cream, and not too sweet like the american cakes. Bravo and thank you for making my birthday grand! read more

Nice snack place . Good food and quick service. Lots of pastries and street food. You will get buns also

Was looking for vegan dessert options for a friend's bday, and this was one of the first places that popped up! The desserts looked and tasted amazing! They were great about making recommendations. Loved all the desserts we bought. Is an "Indian" plaza, so it's owned and run by ppl of Indian background. And it's apparent from the menu, with some Indian influenced items. Both Indian and traditional desserts were great! Would recommend. read more

Great food! reasonable prices! great taste! I go here frequently and this place doesnt disappoint. Some great recommendations for food are - Wada pav (a must try) , black forest pastry, paneer tikka puff, aloo tikki chaat, Aloo tilki burger , frankie , cold coffee! Pav bhaji is good too! Food quality is good and food is freshly made. Service is good and people are soft spoken . I ordered wada pav and Black Forest cake sheet for my office party and everybody loved it . read more
