    10/19/24- I my first experience, while visiting the pop up.. So friendly and lots of options... Ended up getting a slice of the pumpkin swirl cheesecake-..(I think).. Can't wait for dessert- if you order for the holidays there's a discount..

    The Recipe Box desserts at Daddy's Tacos
    Alicia W.

    I've read raving reviews about the cheesecake here, so I tried to go visit when I was in South Reno recently. I then realized the address listed is just their production facility and where you go to pick up your custom orders. I called the phone number listed on Yelp, the owner was so sweet and helpful! She explained that I could pick up some of their items at different businesses in town like Daddy's Tacos and R Town Pizza. Or I could create a custom order and pick it up at their location on Longley. I attended an event at Daddy's Tacos recently and saw the big case of desserts from The Recipe Box, so of course I had to try something! The cherry cheesecake looked tempting because I'm sure they can nail a classic flavor perfectly. But I decided to go with one of their specialty flavors which was a Peach Cobbler Cheesecake! It was about $8 for one slice but it's a huge slice that can easily be split between two people. As several other reviews say, this is probably some of the best cheesecake I've ever had!!! I don't have cheesecake all that often but I could still tell this was an elevated version of cheesecake compared to others I've had. It was especially fluffy, the flavors were perfect, and you simply can't just stop after one bite! There were cobbler crust crumbles on top and real pieces of peach slices on the inside. Do yourself a favor and go try some of their cheesecake asap! If the cheesecake is this good, I have no doubts that their other desserts are excellent as well. I'm looking forward to trying more cheesecake flavors eventually and probably even doing a custom order of a whole cheesecake one of these days!

    The Santa hat cheesecake was so delicious for our holiday gathering. Awesome owner and great communication.

    Cheesecake isn't normally the dessert I crave, but The Recipe Box has me craving cheesecake from time to time. I first tried their decadent cheesecakes at a local farmer's market. They have since opened storefront - sharing a kitchen with Cherry Bomb Catering. Their online ordering site is easy to navigate and ordering a cheesecake is easy. They normally require 48 hour notice during the holidays so be aware of that. Once you put in an order online you are then notified via email when your order is ready to pick up. Really craving cheesecake and can't wait? You can also reach out to them via IG or call to see if they have any pick-up ready cheesecakes available for same day pick-up. Their cheesecakes are decadent with a good balance of richness, sweetness, satisfying any sweet craving. If you haven't given them a try, you must!

    10/10 recipe box cheesecakes!!! I'll be singing their praises to anyone who will listen. I first found out about them at a Yelp event where I met a couple of workers and loved their energy and desserts. My husband absolutely loves cheesecake so I knew I wanted to include them in my desserts for his surprise 40th birthday party. They were preparing for Chocolate in Fantasies which returns this year as a major Reno event but they were able to squeeze me in for three dozen mini cheesecakes that were the first things to be eaten! So many people raved about them and I cannot thank them enough. MINI FLAVORS ORDERED: Whiskey infused pecan praline Cookie butter Oreo stuffed Bite sized PERFECTION. INDIVIDUAL (serves one) Caramel apple Pumpkin chocolate chip Churro These were slightly bigger than the minis and I got these specifically for only hubby. He loves every single one. Cannot wait to have a reason to order again!! I didn't get a great photo as I wasn't there to set up so relied on one my sis took but either way do not miss out!!!! So grateful they came through for me. They are currently housed inside cherry bomb catering, another great business. Easy pickup!

    Pistachio cheesecake

    I found these guys at Feed The Camel early in the summer and have been a weekly shopper ever since. I'm a cheesecake lover, it is my favorite food. And I promise you that if you love cheesecake you absolutely have to give them a try. Davery and Dominique have all sorts of crazy ideas for new cheesecakes so I have a feeling they will have no problem keeping the lineup fresh. These are some of the best cheesecakes I've ever had in my life. I have eaten a metric ton of cheesecakes in my life haha. My top three in no particular order are the blueberry crumble, bourbon maple bacon and pistachio. And now that it's getting into fall season they're unveiling some new editions of fall desserts with pies and cobblers. I thought my diet might be safe for a handful of months but it turns out those are equally fantastic. This is a true family business, the kids are always there helping serve and run the point of sale system. Now that they've established some ground here and made a name for themselves they have a pretty solid regular following already. Regardless of being a regular or if it's your first time they always have a warm reception for their customers. Currently they're located inside of Cherry Bomb catering which is another fantastic group of people. For now you have to order ahead while they're on their growing track and can pick up in shop or have it delivered. They offer a variety of sizes for various group sizes and parties. Or you can find them at a few of our other awesome businesses. At the time of writing this I know that Dark Shot coffee and C's Mad Batter Cakery features items from them. And at the soft opening they announced they were also partnering with Daddy's Tacos. I'm telling you to keep an eye on this family. They're gonna make a big name for themselves at the rate they're growing. I can't wait to see what the future holds for them and absolutely am excited for the next crazy creations that come out of the oven.

    Slice of blueberry crumble cheesecake
    Robin A.

    Delicious! Today I picked up my cheesecake and was happily impressed. We ordered a blueberry crumble cheesecake for the house. It was a sweet way to bring in the new year. We were able to order and pay for it online with the website portal. It was super convenient. My receipt let me know what time to pick it up. They have curbside available where they can bring it out to your car too. I was first introduced to this company when I went to feed the camel. Then I had the opportunity to attend their grand opening at the Cherry Bomb Catering building. It's a family business. So far I have tried the original cheesecake, lemon cheesecake, and peach cobbler. Yup that's right they sell cobbler too. They also have seasonal items on their menu for a limited time. Also they can do parties and baby showers for desserts. Every time I go, I am greeted with smiles and positivity from the whole family. I'm excited to see this here in Reno. Thank you for making our city your home.

    It doesn't get any better than a cheesecake from The Recipe Box. Love this team! I have experienced their greatness at various community events starting this past summer and I just can't get enough. Professional, Delicious treats, and good people. Today I was able to support the business by ordering a customized cheesecake bite tray for my office Halloween luncheon. They loved every bite! My tray included flavors such as churro, blueberry crumble, and classic cheesecake bites. When I say the tray didn't stand a chance believe me. I was pleased my team enjoyed their special treat and hearing how excited they are about reaching out to make their own personal orders for future gatherings. All in all, today was a good day at the office with the help of the Recipe Box Fam. I appreciate them for taking my request and making sure I had a quality experience. From order to pick up everything was smooth. One hiccup trying to find the pick up location but I'm blaming google maps. Thank you again Recipe Box Fam. Keep producing great products and I'll be back for more!

    Found this gem at feed the camel. The co-owner was super sweet with us. They had so many options but we decided to go with the small cheesecakes. The Oreo was perfect... not too sweet and tasted delicious. Also got the traditional cheesecake-- simple and so tasty. If you see them, check out their menu! A good-- not overwhelming-- sweet treat!

    Absolutely amazing cheesecakes, cobblers, and pies! I've been ordering from them for every small to big gatherings at the house, and it's always the big hit and highlight of the party. To illustrate my point, I had taken out the strawberry cheesecake before dinner was served and guests were so excited to try, everyone ended up eating dessert before the entree -- the cheesecake was completely decimated, in a good way! What makes their dessert different is the balance of sweetness and the proportion and taste of the crust (plus beautiful presentation). It's not overly sweet, so you don't feel sick or put off after eating. The crust is more substantial than other cheesecakes I've had, which helps balances the filling portion. Every bite is a perfect bite. They offer different sidings, from the mini bites that are perfect for kids (they pop them in their mouths easily with no mess), to ones that are good for tastings, to fill on birthday party size. They also make really special gifts for family and friends. Absolutely recommend for food made with genuine love!

    SOOO GOOD!

The Minced Pork Dumplings, however, were not for us. I believe the flavor of the Chinese leek may have been what turned us off. As for the Napoleon, it wasn't very sweet or particularly flavorful, and it made quite a mess to eat. Not something I'd reorder. The Sui Mai was delicious, and I would definitely order it again. This was the winner of our take home feast. While not everything was a hit for us, we'd return for the Sui Mai and BBQ Pork Buns and other explore some other items that we have yet to try.

    YELP REVIEW PROMPT…read more Checked on Yelp for a dessert spot that I haven't tried before. Sierra Nevada Creamery and Bakery was a quick four minute walk from our lunch spot so we thought why not! It's located right next to the Pioneer Center for Performing Arts and has a very small parking area. There are restaurants on either side so there is also street parking. It was a warm day so I decided on a double scoop in a cup, one pistachio and one sea salt caramel. The double scoop was huge, definitely no skimping and only $10. There was one person ahead of us and then tons of people piled in after we did so we got there at a really good time! There was only employee working (I think he may have been the owner). I felt so bad because it was just him and he had a line almost out the door but if he was stressed he did not show it. He was friendly and so professional. The inside is pretty small but there some places to sit and if the inside is full the grass area right outside isn't a bad place to enjoy your treats. I would recommend for sure and I definitely want to go back and try a chocolate chip cookie. Things to note: Read his story on the ice cream menu. I enjoyed it and that is what makes me want to return to try the chocolate chip cookie.

I was surprised to see this place as I've driven by this strip of businesses many times and never noticed this particular spot. They offer homemade treats, but mostly ice cream. They have an almost unmatched selection of non-dairy ice creams and sorbets. A nice surprise. The gentleman helping us was very nice and gave us a full rundown of how they make everything in house. He offered samples and suggestions. I sampled the flavor of the week, Lavender Honey Matcha, and the coconut cream coffee. My kids decided on the mango sorbet and the classic strawberry. Everything was delicious. The coconut cream ice cream had great flavor and texture given that it was non dairy. My wife and I decided on the matcha flavor of the week. It was very refreshing. The strawberry had real chunks of strawberry which is always a treat. My biggest critique is the texture of the ice cream. This stuff seemed very crumbly. I prefer a much more "chewy" or "sticky" ice cream if that makes sense. This stuff was more "dry" and less "creamy". There are some other local shops in the area that make great ice cream exactly how I like it, which is the only reason for 4 stars. I'm not sure this would be my top place for ice cream again. The smallest "one scoop" size is actually nearly two full scoops. Could be a good thing for some, but a kids scoop is always appreciated for my toddlers, especially a a slightly discounted price. That is not an option here. There are a few small tables inside to enjoy your treats and lots of to-go options which is always nice. The place was clean and well decorated. It was steadily busy while we visited, indicating that this place is likely here to stay. Overall, worth stopping in if you're in the area. The flavors are unique and tasty and the non-dairy selection is fantastic.

I love watching the people and cars go by in Midtown while enjoying a great meal. We started with drinks. I ordered the Limoncello Spritz, and wow--it was absolutely out of this world!

Instead of being buttery like many California Chardonnays, it's slightly sweeter and very smooth. After trying my cocktail, my husband decided to order a Limoncello Spritz too, and he ended up enjoying it even more than the wine. We skipped the appetizers and salads and went straight to the main event. I ordered the mushroom ravioli, which I had been dreaming about all day. It was light, delicate, and packed with incredible flavor. My husband, who is from New Zealand, chose the lamb chops. They were cooked to perfection, so tender you could cut them with a butter knife. He paired them with the asparagus risotto, which was delicious but a little heavy alongside the lamb. We ended up taking some home, and next time I'd recommend pairing the lamb with a salad instead. To finish, we shared the large ricotta cannoli topped with chocolate chips. It was heavenly, light, creamy, and it practically melted in our mouths. Honestly, every dessert we've had here has been fantastic. Dolce Caffè continues to impress with its authentic Italian flavors, warm hospitality, and wonderful atmosphere.
