I've been shopping here some time and their items are always fresh. Ladies who work there are very nice and helpful. Cookies, full cakes, cake slices, sweets and baklava choices. Ist is the perfect neighborhood bakery with the old charm. I wished they also had selection of fresh bread. You won't be disappointed. read more

For those who love light and airy desserts, this spot has an amazing one. Their Fruit Jelly Cake is probably the best fruit jelly I've ever had in my life. The jelly itself is very light and not too sweet and the fruits in the cake are filled in all the way down to the bottom. With each bite, you taste the freshness and the ripeness of the fruits. The cake is so light that you can't stop eating it. Almost a guilt-free pleasure. Many places try to imitate this fruit jelly cake, but none come close . I highly recommend it. The bakery itself is small but has a nice selection of pastries and the customer service is on point. Will definitely be back for more. read more

Very disappointing experience at the Granada Hills branch. I ordered a cake and from the very first bite it was obvious that something was wrong. The cake tasted overbaked, stale, and simply not fresh. It wasn't just my opinion--my friends and I all immediately noticed the same issue. What disappointed me even more was how the situation was handled. I went back to the store to explain the problem, expecting at least some acknowledgment or concern. Instead, the staff insisted that the cake was perfectly fine and completely dismissed my feedback. They refused to admit there was any issue with the product. At this point, I wasn't even asking for a refund. I simply wanted them to recognize that the cake was not up to standard and take customer feedback seriously. Unfortunately, they showed no willingness to listen or take responsibility. Poor product quality and even poorer customer service. I would not recommend this location based on my experience. read more

Very bad service when it comes to any questions bout their sweet when it is bad. They are cheap and not be willing to acomódate the customer or give credit even if you are regular customer. They like to argue that their sweet don't have a problem sometimes. read more

The most delicious, delicious bakery I've tasted in so long!!!! It's Amazing.... You can tell it's made fresh with amazing quality

For first time i purchased a small birthday cake from Verj pastry in granada hills yesterday 08/23/25 , and unfortunately, it was not fresh( all four of my guest tasting same) . This was disappointing for such a special occasion, and it also raises concerns about product quality and customer health. I believe freshness is one of the most important standards for any bakery, and I hope management can take this feedback seriously to ensure all items are properly checked before being sold. Customers should be able to trust that the cakes and pastries are fresh, safe, and enjoyable. read more

I am an aficionado of Bird Milk cake and have tried every single version of it available in every bakery and Armenian store in LA. Every. Single. One. Not kidding. Vrej Pastry has the very best one. It tastes like it's made by someone's auntie, with love and care. Everything from the fluffy layers of cake, to the rich chocolate sauce on top, to the perfectly portioned cream layers. My love language is sharing this specific cake with friends and family. It has been my birthday cake for the last few years and will remain so every year. Please never change this recipe. It brings our community so much joy! read more

I needed to find a cake last minute for my stepdad's 75th birthday. I was driving around near my hairdresser, looking for one at 2pm Saturday, party that evening. Drove past this place and OMG I'M SO HAPPY I DID! They had the most beautiful cakes ready to go. I chose one that was part chocolate, part nutella. Delicious, light, airy-everyone remarked how it was a better cake than they were used to at a party and that it was so tasty! I will be back! read more

Extremely Disappointed - Moldy Cake & Zero Accountability Bought a jello cake for a party and the fruit inside was moldy -- incredibly embarrassing. When I called the store, the staff didn't care, gave me the runaround, and told me to call another location myself for a refund. It's been two days with no call back and no resolution. Terrible customer service and unacceptable quality. I won't be returning. read more

Baker almost scammed us out of $40 (said price was $70 per piece when it was clearly advertised as $50), then proceeded to curse me and my bloodline and try to put her hands on me because we didn't agree with how they did business. Pastry was also bland. 1/10 read more

Drove 25 mins because I wanna try some new tiramisu. Doing a tiramisu review for the entire LA county. Moist level: 2/5 Frosting: 1/5 (too much frosting ruins the refreshness of a good tiramisu) Coffee component: 3/5 The owner is really nice. Give it a service: 5/5 Overall: 3/5 Lots of parking spot.

Bought trays of baklava and not one had a crunch to it was all soggy and no flavor. So disappointing what happened to this place with quality. All our guests ate on bite and rest the was all thrown away. Keep in mind paid over $150 bucks will not be going back again here. read more

Really great local bakery with plenty of free parking and lots of delicious selection. Every pastry was fresh, tasty, and reasonably priced. I was so stoked to find Napoleon (my absolute FAVORITE, of which my grandmother is a pro baker) and this one was a close 2nd to grandma's kitchen - BIG kudos to the baker! Also loved the custard on the fruit tart - I get fruit tarts anytime I see them and this one was great. Could use a few raspberries, but that's just me. Also sampled: Opera cake - delicious! Just what you expect. I used to get the opera cake at Lilit's in NoHo but they stopped making it. Guess I have a new go to place! The mikado was pretty good but on the denser side. That's not normally my jam in a pastry but I could totally see my Eastern European fam digging this. Gonna grab them a piece next time I come. As far as the chocolate raspberry swirl, this one was a little dry for me. Perhaps this particular batch was left in the oven a smidgen too long and the next visit will prove more moist. Overall, a huge success! So happy we took a chance on this place. Til next time, Vrej Pastry! read more

For my mother-in-law's birthday, we wanted a small, 6-in cake which this bakery has, so I decided to give it a try. I came on a Sunday morning and spoke with the lady in front who was nice enough to tell me what kind of cake flavors they have available. All of their cakes looked really good, it was difficult to choose but I decided to go with the vanilla cake with hazelnut filling. The cake was delicious! It was moist with the right amount of sweetness. I will definitely come back to try their other cakes! read more

Vrej sure has come a long way and there have been some huge improvements since our last visit here way back in 2016 when we said we would never return! We were picking up pastries for New Year's and since we live closer to Vrej, we did not want to make the drive in rain and traffic all the way to Glendale. So, let's give them another chance 5 years later. Most of what we ordered were absolutely delicious, minus a few items which I will describe below. The biggest disappointment was being overcharged for some items like maamouls. We ordered 6 total but were charged for 9. Not a huge issue but still makes us more weary for future visits. So speaking of maamoul, we ordered pistachio, date, and walnut. Across the board, the cookie or dough itself was beyond amazing. So buttery, crumbly, yet soft and slightly sweet, they were delicious! The fillings on the other hand were mixed. The walnut was sadly just gross. It seems like they overloaded the sugar and cinnamon while turning the walnuts into a paste like the date maamoul and we hoped for more whole or pieces of walnuts like other bakeries make it. The date however was on point and the pistachio was okay, more pieces of pistachio but still too much of a paste. The baba au rhum was as good as Sarkis Pastry in glendale. A good size bundt plump with rum and syrup, cut open to be filled with a thick and fresh slice of pineapple and sweet, rich custard! I'm glad they did not cheap out and use whipped cream instead. The shaabiye was to die for. Layers of phyllo filled with rich thick ashta and a delicious syrup to pour over the top for added sweetness. Mille Fuille were amazing, flaky puff pastry layered with the rich custard and a light dusting of powdered sugar. The eclair had the same great custard but the pastry was a bit bland and dry. And lastly the item I forgot the name of, I believe bird's nest or something similar (rolled phyllo/kataif with whole pistachios cut into a log shape). I'm not a fan in general but these are my dad's favorites and he loved them. We will happily return to Vrej! read more

We got up-charged. Prices are hidden and they charge unethical prices. Good pastries though. The Vrej Pastry in Pasadena is much better.

I love the bakery the woman that work here are incredibly sweet. Everything taste delicious and it's a great price and it's very clean.

I don't have a sweet tooth but I know a lot of people who do. Every time I need the best napoleons or tiramisu, these ladies knock it out of the park. Just be sure to give them a call to see if they have what you need in the quantities. Each time they are kinder, sweeter and more generous. If I keep coming back I won't have any teeth left in my mouth. I highly recommend this bakery not only for the quality but also the prices. The service is great, the place is small so if you wanna grab a coffee there you can but seating is rather limited. The ambiance is okay but don't expect a super cozy lounge. This is a large strip mall with a Trader Joe's. read more

OM GOOD NESS! All pastries and and cakes are freshly made and taste amazing, makes you want to come back to buy more, if you have a "sweet tooth" this is the place to get your dessert treat.

The good: My friend gifted a baklava box (in various shapes) to me and my husband and we are hooked! She told me that these were pastries her husband's family always got. These were the best middle eastern sweets I've had! My husband and I finished an entire box in one night. Normally, they are too sweet and I cannot eat many of them but these were so easy to keep eating. They pair well with tea. We both have a sweet tooth so a place like this is dangerous for us. I loved that their baklava weren't sticky sweet. They weren't overly drenched in honey and the dough was perfectly flaky. I liked the rose water flavoring and the use of various types of nuts (walnuts, pistachios). There are middle eastern sweets but also a lot of French and Italian items too like eclairs, tiramisu, mousse cakes and fruit tartes. The bad: Their website doesn't work so you cannot make online orders or requests. The interesting: I saw that they sell honey cake so I will definitely be coming back to try that! read more

This place has gone downhill! I went in today drove 20 miles to get my son some baklava. The shelves were completely empty. I asked for a mixed tray of baklava. I stood there waiting for her for 15 minutes. She finally gets me a try of mixed baklava that is full of the baklava that has no nuts! I've gotten these trays before and they come with at least a couple of rows of baklava stuffed with pistachios or some kind of nuts like cashews or something. She's trying to sell me a mixed baklava with hardly any nuts stuffed inside. I kindly looked at it and said no thanks and walked away. Do yourself a favor and stop buying from this place! Their quality has gone bad! read more

Well if you want everything Middle Eastern and with a touch of Eastern European and cover some sweet to see Avery. I had to try the rum cups and chocolate chip cookies and the chocolate chip cookies are the kind they get really thick it almost tasted like it has a nice flowery texture but it even includes that point where it goes to the back of your throat and you can taste chocolate all over it's too delicious I had to eat two of them LOL The room cups are incredibly rich which is the case Most often but the chocolate has a very wonderful feeling quality that allows the flavor to stay in your mouth for quite some time it's almost as if one cookie can last for the same amount as five store-bought cookies from another place in the world The store is exceptionally clean and hand sanitizers included they're very careful to follow all the Covid regulations in place so your dining experience is very safe let's go see Bill for take out my next step is to try one of the cakes and some of the more sweeter items... But I have to be careful LOL otherwise I might eat too much.. read more

This is a good and popular bakery in Granada Hills. They are right next to Chase Bank, and Target across the street off of busy Balboa Blvd. During the holidays, we stopped in here and purchased some cakes, muffins, and other goods I cannot name off hand lol. I like the European short breads here too, They have everything from chocolate , to any flavors you like. Vrej Pastry has real homemade goods like the way your grandmother always made them. Love this place, I stop by everytime I am in town. read more

Delicious pastries. Many verities. I love their Maamoul. Friendly staff. Perfect locations.

What a gem. Warning I didn't photograph any of the pastries or remember any of the names per each dessert well besides eclair, but I'll do my best to describe my favorites. This triangle cheese stuffed baklava kunafe hybrid oh my gosh, I can eat 50 of those they're incredible! Tiramisu cake is divine. Vanilla filling eclair is so legit. My husband and I were fighting over it. Loved everything we tried and cannot wait to go back. Friendly helpful staff, plenty of items to choose from, cute European style store, lovely creations! Plenty of parking in the shared parking lot. Couldn't recommend them more!!! read more

Where should I start. Horrible sweets. This place is terrible. Creme Brulee means torched. The top sugar was soft and liquid. The cream puff had lite cream. The nuts looked and tasted boiled.

Have been coming here for years. Bird's milk log cake is a bomb. Mikado is great too. Be forewarned that some of the flat pastries (like Mikado) are expected to be semi-hard, so if you are not familiar with this style they will feel dry/old to you. They are not ;) they were never meant to be soft... read more

We were having dinner next store and decided to get some dessert. The eclair and Opera cake were both delicious. The red velvet cake was inedible. It was so dry.
