Cowboy quiche - sausage, onion, pepper, and cheese.
Kinsey S.

The quiche at this place blew any quiche I've ever had out of the water. Ive had quite a few quiches in my day - from bakeries in Orlando, Miami, and even other bakeries in town. Hands down the fluffiest I've ever had. I mean look at that masterpiece. Pure mastery, and maybe a little witchcraft. 11/10. Service was great. Quick and attentive. Place had a homey charm to it. But seriously, that quiche. I'm going to dream about it.

I live near Jacksonville, FL which about 3 hours away. My daughter goes to FSU. So for Mother's Day weekend I had plans to visit her in Tally which after hearing about the famous pop tarts, our adventures were centered mostly around this visit. Since this was a mother-daughter adventure, I was looking forward to bringing home my husband a (one- singular) pop tart. We got there 1040 (no line) and to my surprise, there was a sign saying one pop tart per person (ok Soup Nazi from Seinfeld...). No pop tarts in the cases, only a few trays of cupcakes and cookies. I asked the young adult worker if they had hand pop tarts and she replied they did and it was one per person and each had to be purchased separately (more Soup Nazi vibes). Ok... So used my credit card to make 2 different transactions. Why couldn't they have rung them both up together and write "2 people) on the ticket is beyond me. My daughter and I decided to eat them there. They were pretty tasty. I did not finish mine. I placed my 1/2 eaten messy pop tart back into the cellophane wrapper to bring home 3 hours away to my spouse a day later hoping it would hold up. After that, my hands were incredibly sticky from the icing. Can you believe there were NO paper napkins in the dining room anywhere? Also, the hallway to the restrooms was barricaded off saying "bathroom out of order". Really? Or was it that you didn't want that many people using the facilities? There was a man mopping the floor- so I would have to imagine the sink was mostly likely working. So, I went to the register to ask for wet napkins. The same young lady that checked me out said "Oh, are you here to pick up a cake?" - my friends later told me I should have asked for another pop tart since she obviously didn't remember me, hahah!- but I told her I needed some WET napkins for my sticky hands. She hands me 2 paper napkins. I just look at her. I asked her to wet them please as I did not think just dry napkins were going to take care of the stickiness, especially since there was no access to the rest room facilities to use the sink. Tasty treats. HUGE disappointment in the whole experience. Wish I would have read the reviews prior to come to the Cake Shop - not sure I would have stopped in. Also, my daughter and I looked on the website later to see if you could pre-order pop tarts because she was going to bring home my husband home one in the upcoming weekend and hopefully some for the rest for our small family (4) since she can only get one in person but that doesn't seem to be an option. She made a joke that she will grab the rest of her college friends and go daily to collect them until she has four for our family this next weekend. Utterly ridiculous- bless her little heart, my sweet girl. Also, my recommendation is scale back on the other cakes, cup cakes and cookies until this pop tart craze has passed - give the people what they want- and for goodness sakes, put some napkins and or wet wipes in your dining room. One my my girlfriends saw my social media post about trying the pop tarts and she replied she was going to make a road trip to Tally from Jax to get some and I told her not to bother coming only for the pop tarts. What a shameful experience...

Strawberry cheesecake
James K.

Got the strawberry cheesecake, and all the people raving about these cheesecakes are absolutely correct. The icing around the edges was super airy, and the cheesecake itself was creamy and very filling, but didn't have a "thick" mouthfeel. Good size too, could comfortably feed probably 8-10 people. It's pricier than a supermarket cheesecake, but you're paying for quality.

Large Cupcake
Niaz P.

These cupcakes were great and held up decently over time. They all had unique flavors and felt innovative. The frosting was a tad sweet while the cupcake itself was a tad dry, but other than that it was a decent cupcake. I'd like to try again while being in store to know how it tastes fresh.

I sat at the soda counter and ordered strawberry pancakes with bacon, and I tried their root beer flight. Turns out they didn't have all of the root beers because one was discontinued or unable to be sent to them any longer so one of my root beers was an orange soda. I liked the opportunity to try these sodas on tap and not commit to one. That's a really fun idea. Pancakes were fluffy and delicious. The bacon was good and I love strawberry pancakes so I'm a big fan when that's on the menu. I really didn't spend a lot of time there, but everyone was friendly and courteous and I didn't have to wait too long for anything from being greeted when I got there to being served. It was a great experience.

Our lunch was beyond expectations! The She Crab and Tomato bisques were savory, filling, and hearty enough to eat as a standalone. Paired with the sandwiches, they satisfied our tummy with enough leftover for dinner too. The Fried Green Tomato sandwich was a perfect blend of savory and sweet with the tomato jam kissing the Rosemary Focaccia and the Boursin cheese added a nice bite. The Grilled Cheese sandwich brought us back to our childhood but better, with an adult flavor profile for refined palates. Shhh don't tell Mom. The level of care, expertise, and love that goes into each of these dishes, shines through each and every bite. We had the pleasure of enjoying Chef Leon's food at a local charity event. We were fortunate to snag a very coveted lunch spot. The restaurant is going through some changes and is currently not serving lunch BUT Chef Leon is offering soup orders on a regular basis. My goodness! I can just put all of my pots and pans away and order directly from him. I look forward to what Chef Leon has planned for us next. Be sure to follow him on Facebook to stay up to date on his plans and to get alerted to his next date for soup orders. I AM CERTAIN THAT WHATSVER Chef Leon has planned, it will be worth the wait.
