    Chocolate Kahlua

    Ordered a chocolate kahlua cheesecake and it did not disappoint! Marylou even offered to add a Happy Birthday candle with the order, which was super nice of her. The cheesecake is pretty rich and the oreo crust pairs pretty well with it. We'd definitely love to order from her again!

    Dulce de leche cheesecake
    Shaira T.

    When people say that Marylou had figured cheesecakes out, she really has. I ordered a dulce de leche cheesecake for my mother-in-law's birthday and it was such a hit! Everyone was asking where we got it from. The dulce de leche has white chocolate on it and it really complements the flavor. It wasn't super sweet and the crust was perfect. I found Zen-sational cheesecake just a bit over 2 days before I needed it and Marylou said she really only needs about 24 hours of lead time since they don't have a storefront. At the time of writing, I paid $45 for the cheesecake which is totally fair given how good it is and the fact that it's homemade. They take a variety of digital payment methods as well. On top of all that, Marylou's customer service is top notch! She gave tips on how long the cake will keep and how to make sure it doesn't slip around while driving. I will definitely be getting more cheesecakes from them in the future!!

    Strawberry Cheesecake

    This was seriously the best cheesecake I've ever had! It was ready in 24 hours and fairly priced especially since it was home-made. Will definitely be ordering from here again!

    Wedding Cupcake cheesecakes for guests

    My husband and I were looking for a vendor for cheesecake for our wedding cake since it's our favorite and we stumbled upon on Marylou's cheesecakes here on Yelp. BEST DECISION to go with her. We knew from the test tasting with her that we loved her cheesecake and so did our family. We loved our wedding cake. SO DELICIOUS! We also asked for cupcake cheesecake and those were a hit. All 140 were gone! Would definitely recommend and chose Mary Lou again for any cheesecake needs!

    Marylou was so wonderful making a very personal experience! What a delicious creamy not too sweet, just enough flavor cheesecake! We will be back. She certainly went out of her way for us. I can't recommend her enough.

    Personal cheesecake

    OMG! Amazing cheesecake! I had to order our daughter's wedding cake from the other side of the country, relying only on previous reviews. Five stars is not enough! The cakes were the most delicious ones we have ever had AND they were decorated beautifully. Our daughter as well as all of our guests were completely impressed with Zensational's cheesecake, traditional and flavored. We highly recommend this company for her dedication to her clients, as well as the quality, taste, and presentation of the final product.

    Strawberry Cheesecake from Zen-sational Cheescakes
    Robin F.

    Yum! By far this was best cheesecake my family has ever had. Not only is the customer service A+, the cheesecake is wonderful with the freshest ingredients, Marylou the owner of this small business has a heart of gold deliving her box with a bow on it right to your car with drive thru service. You must give this a try, you will be glad you did!

    Strawberry Cheesecake

    I ordered the strawberry cheesecake for my wife's birthday. The cheesecake lived up to its Zen-sational name! It was beautiful and more importantly, delicious! My wife and kids loved it. Marylou (owner/baker) was very easy to work with. I'm planning to order the Oreo cheesecake for my kid's birthday.

    A slice of their Strawberry Cream.
    Caleb T.

    It's easy to follow the crowd and just say this was a delicious cheesecake (which it was), but I gotta go into some detail and state why this is a damn fine 5-Star cheesecake. My girlfriend and I split a slice of Strawberry Cream, her choice as I would have gone with a chocolate or mocha style if they had it, and raised an eyebrow at the portion size after shelling out close to $9 for a such a tiny and poorly cut thing (blame Rimel's for that), but then we started to taste it... The berry was light, only the sweet coming through with none of the tart. It was heavy on the cream, but giving it a richness that didn't weight down the flavor. This by themselves were pretty excellent, a good to great cheesecake that would have gotten a strong 4-Star from the both of us; then you eat the crust. Holy crap it's delicious! Real butter, brown sugar, graham cracker, all of it cooked perfectly with no burn and all caramel taste that melts on the tongue with every crumbly bit. Mother of god, it's fantastic! Even with my wishing for the Tuxedo over the Strawberry Cream weighing down my opinion, there is no getting away from how good everything is especially with that crust leading the charge. Definitely going to try another slice sometime soon and I suggest anyone reading to do the same!

    Mini cheesecake! So cute
    Annie T.

    Wow! Sensational is the right description of these awesome cupcakes! Made with such love! The ingredients taste so fresh and yummy! This is the second time ordering and will continue to support local business!

    Yummy traditional style cheesecake
    Brandi C.

    During the COVID19 stay at home order we were looking for a cheesecake birthday cake. Marylou was amazingly accommodating and only needed one day to prepare this masterpiece from scratch. It was delicious and needless to say, didn't last long! Thanks Marylou!

    Do you have dole whip?

    Hi - we make custom cheesecakes. We don’t have a storefront so we don’t have Dole whip. Sorry.

    Any vegan cheesecakes?

    Hi Melissa, no, I’m sorry but we don’t make a vegan cheesecake at this time. Thanks for asking.

Food and catering service were some of our highest priorities to get right during our wedding and Culinary Kitchen was phenomenal every step of the way. Our communication with Ashley and and JP before, during, and after the wedding was exceptional. From the very beginning, Ashley was very responsive and regularly checked in with us, which helped me feel less overwhelmed by all the catering decisions we needed to make. I tend to err on being extremely detail oriented and I asked tons of questions early on. Ashley was so patient and thorough with each email I had sent over even before booking. Before choosing our caterer, we did 3 different wedding caterer tastings and Culinary Kitchen easily was the best of all three (we're still thinking about the gochujang meatballs and the cavatappi pasta with fennel sausage!!). On our wedding day, the food service ran seamlessly and our guests often commented on how good the food was (guests were actually trying to sneak chicken tenders off the kids plates because even the kids meals were so good). Their team also helped us serve our desserts, did our bartending, and rented/placed all of our table settings, all at very reasonable prices as part of the entire catering package. The team also went above and beyond to accommodate all of our guests' special dietary needs while still helping us stay within budget and recommending a cohesive menu. One last thing - we did A LOT of research on different San Diego caterers before our wedding (I think we sent out inquiries to at least 10 other caterers) and Culinary Kitchen's catering packages felt the most "upscale" and comprehensive without leaving us feeling nickel and dimed for every line item. I truly felt like their team was on our side the whole way. THANK YOU Culinary Kitchen for catering our wedding day!! We wish you guys the best of success!

Every course, from the appetizers to the main courses, was incredible and beautifully presented. Many of our guests reached out about how it was simply such good food. One of our deciding factors was the fact that Buckboard is actually a restaurant here in San Diego, so their food was not just "wedding food" but actually restaurant quality. We fell in love instantly after our tasting. Knowing they are a local San Diego restaurant gave us so much confidence in food quality, and they absolutely delivered. Their service on the day of our wedding was seamless. It felt like everything was handled effortlessly, which allowed us to enjoy the day stress-free. My husband and I planned our wedding on our own and one of the biggest reliefs for us was that Buckboard took care of so many details - from linens, plates, and bar service to the propane for the heaters. Having one point of contact for everything was a great aspect. We truly didn't worry about their services at all day of. Buckboard's familiarity with our venue was another huge plus. They worked in perfect harmony with the venue staff. And as a same-sex couple, we were deeply touched by how welcomed and respected they made us feel throughout the entire process. We wholeheartedly recommend Buckboard Catering for their incredible food, great service, and outstanding communication. They made our wedding day not just special, but unforgettable. Thank you, Buckboard, for everything, you're truly the best!
