This is a satisfactory place. Nothing exceptional really. They do have a variety though. If you need a cake in an urgency, then perhaps this place can rescue you. But, you may not get the best bang for your buck. Recently, I bought a supposedly Nutella cake. The seller said it had filling as well as frosting of Nutella, however it was a let down. While the chocolate cake was average, there was no sign of any Nutella in it! Nutella has a distinct taste that very few can miss, so if you are struggling to find it, then the recipe wasnt spot on! I went in expecting good stuff but sadly was left disappointed! Also, I didnt think the $25 I spent was fair for a less than average 6 round cake. Im rating them here mostly for their variety.

Bakery side of things is fine. But, I got a hot sandwich and they microwaved the meat. Nothing special at all & definitely not worth it.

I had a ordered a cake for my sisters gender reveal. The staff was very nice and helpful. I ordered a Pink cake with cannoli filling. The cake was beautifully made as I got in my car with it, I actually cried a little it. I recently lost my oldest sister and now I was being blessed with a niece from my other sister. I lost an angel and gained another on earth. The cake was exactly what I hoped to look like and it made happy tears for me. The cake brought smiles to my guests and the cake was delicious! I would highly recommend them for cakes. I am glad to have had my sisters cake made by Blue Ribbon. It was a beautiful pink buttercream cake with rose petals and a rose on top. Very happy 1st time customer! ❤️

Their carrot orange juice is good but they’ll add lots of ice if you’re not looking or paying attention the first time I got this it was great and then I came back and ordered another one and they loaded it up with ice. Some people in here will tell you they can’t speak English. I didn’t appreciate the ice in it they did nothing to satisfy me at all after ordering it twice I don’t recommend this place

They have Italian sandwich cookies which shape like leaves. I love leaf shaped Italian sandwich cookies in green, pink, brown, and white. Keep makin leaf shaped Italian sandwich cookies. The leaf shaped Italian sandwich cookies are the best. There is no other bakery like it.

SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO A COUPLE MINUTES DOWN THE STREET TO EMILYS BAKERY. theyre actually very friendly and overall better service and food. my best friend is portuguese and got me into portuguese bakeries. she reccommended this one since Emilys was closed for the day. i called in and ordered a sandwich for a pick up. i get there, ask for my order and the girl at the counter proceeds to tell me theres a 10$ minimum. i wish she wouldve told me that on the phone but whatever. i went and got a drink to add to my order. and she proceeded to tell me i was only at 8$. I kindly asked if shed please be able to ring it up even tho i wasnt at the minimum (like some establishments so kindly do sometimes) and she sharply says nope. it has to be 10$ so i proceeded to ask her if she could tell me what other items i can get to meet the minimum. very rudely she goes idk whatever is there. as she points away. (OK. im obviously asking you cus you work there and you would obviously be better fit to help me.) So again i ask what specific items could help me reach the minimum and she sucks her teeth, seems very inconvenienced/annoyed and very rudely begins to list off possible items. at this point i almost just walked out and was gonna leave the sandwich there because of how rude she was being but i didnt stoop that low...i finally got 2 more items. she takes my card. doesnt say another word. i asked if i needed to sign a receipt and she goes nope. while still seeming preoccupied on the screen and ignoring me. never been treated so rudely at a place before. im an afro-latina Dominican and even left wondering if she was just racist or what because even when i walked in she seemed put off by me walking in until i mentioned i called in an order. NEVER coming here again. I even told my friend that reccomended me and she felt terrible. Do yourself a favor and just go to Emilys. Theyre great and welcoming!

Currently waiting for over 30 mins for an Asai bowl because they wanted to handle the line before making my order. I was told ir would take 10 mins. Staff is very inconsiderate and said, didnt you see the line that came in after you? Yes, after me, yet they were all served and some sat and ate and left before me. Finally, the strawberry mango juice I ordered was not what I received. Instead, they gave me a smoothie.

They are over charged. I purchased laser picture from them and I asked them to put for me it on the cake that I got from Castco and they said yes on the phone when i went to the store they put for me and I asked them to make a frame around it as they usually do for me they asked for $5 and im already paying you for the picture . The thing is not about the five dollar it’s how you don’t mention thaton the phone and how to treat your customers.
