    Anise ricotta cookies (soft & lightly sweetened)
    Angie A.

    If you have a sweet tooth this is the place to visit! They have a variety of homemade pastries, cookies, cakes & pies. From cakes by the slice, pies and custom cakes you don't want to miss trying at least one of everything. They have a great variety of coffee options as well so you can sit down and treat yourself with a sweet treat. The staff is very helpful in helping you decide which cookie to choose from.

    Been here a few times for biscotti, cakes and cookies. It's expensive but it's a real bakery which is hard to find in Jax. They have tables where you can sit and eat your sweets and drink coffee. every time I have been here we always get it to go. This time was no exception we had eaten dinner in the Mexican restaurant next-door and wanted a little sweet for dessert. My husband got two big oatmeal raisin cookies. I could not resist the white chocolate bread pudding, which came with a side of white chocolate to drizzle on top. We took the desserts home. I heated up the bread pudding in the microwave for about 25 seconds. it was absolutely delicious. It was so rich. I could only eat half definitely big enough to share.

    This is my favorite food place in Jax. Yes, I'm definitely addicted to sugar. This is a wonderful, cute & clean bakery. Always a great selection and you can even eat in as they have tables available. The staff is always pleasant and helpful. Service is great, but at times they get really busy and you may have to wait in line a few minutes. This visit we brought home chocolate chewy cookies, pumpkin squares, lemon squares and to die for tiramisu. It's a must try if you like fabulous cakes, pies, cookies, and much more.

    This is my go to bakery when visiting the area.The cookies $20/lb are always fresh, the pastries, melting your mouth, such as the danish and apple pie is piled high with apples, several inches thick. The cannoli are filled to order which is a nice touch.

    I love this bakery! I love the nostalgic appliances that they have when you walk into the left at the coffee bar. The old mixer provides the era of homemade goods! The wide variety of choices even late at night were impressive. My friend and I got multiple things to try and for her to take home (yes, she took it all home, not me). The cheesecake was decadent, the almond danish was phenomenal, the chocolate cake was rich more than Richie Rich himself and the Keylime was just hard enough to be enjoyable.

    Nice to go containers

    Omg Amaretti's pumpkin cupcake is insanely good! The perfect frosting to cake ratio (translation lots of frosting!) The cream cheese frosting is just heavenly, and the cake is moist and flavorful without being too spicy. My husband was also blown away by the peanut butter chocolate pie. Once again birthday treats are 10/10!

    Amaretti Desserts is a great place for your dessert needs. We stopped by late on a Sunday, items were a bit picked over (with good reason), and the crew was friendly and eager to wait on us. The inside of the shop is clean with marble and red accents. Casual but classy. I had the Kentucky Derby Pie which was amazing. Great chocolate accents, amazing whipped cream and the inside had the consistency of a thick pecan pie, but walnuts were used instead. Really great pie. My wife ordered a brownie that good, but just a bit dry. Very good desserts here and excellent prices. Amaretti provides great quality at a price point far lower than comparable dessert shops in the area. We'll be back to try more. I recommend you give them a try.

    Fellow Yelper Sara B & I stopped in on a first visit for both of us & we were in awe of the variety of sweets on display. We knew we wanted to try one of the s'mores treats & decided on the s'mores bar...along with a few other items to share. Everything was decadent & delicious!

    Mike A.

    Just recently had two delightful treats at Amaretti's! We got a chocolate peanut butter which was large, fresh, and had generous amounts of both chocolate and peanut butter chunks! The flavor was also great! We also got a blueberry muffin which was bursting with sugary and blueberry flavor, and I'm pretty sure everyone will like that one. While we only stopped in for those two bakery items, supposedly the cakes and coffee are awesome, so will have to go back and try them soon!

    I was eating next door and had to stop in and check out the desserts and pastries. I had tasted a few cakes from Amaretti's so I knew whatever I ordered would be fabulous. It took me a little while to narrow down my options which I did while waiting in line. I ordered a piece of tiramisu and a chocolate croissant. Honestly I wanted many more items but I had to pace myself lol. The tiramisu was rich, creamy and deliscious! I ate it over the course of three days. I'm so glad I savored it and made it last. I would order this again and again and again! The chocolate croissant was moist and the dark chocolate was plentiful. If you haven't tried Amaretti's, get out from under that bush and run to the store!

    The desserts are absolutely delicious--especially the PB cookies, which are amazing! The lemon ricotta is one of my all-time favorites, and the cake sampler is a great idea. It gives you the chance to try different cakes and icings in one go--perfect for indecisive dessert lovers like me. I also picked up a mixed box of cookies sold by the pound (my favorite thing to do!). Honestly, it's probably a good thing they're not too close to my house, or I'd be there way too often. They also serve drinks and coffee, and it's a great place to sit down for a chat. The staff is friendly, and the inside is super nice and cozy. Definitely worth a visit!

    I had no clue this place existed!! And now I am Obsessed!!!…read more I created my own - Nutella and PB. Wow just wow. They were made fresh and they were spectacular. So yummy. The employee was lovely. Kind, helpful and friendly. Located at Jax Beach.

    My daughter and her husband wanted donuts at 8:00 at night. We couldn't find many open donut…read moreshops; and my husband said we couldn't get "ordinary" donuts from a grocery store, so we found Lukumades by searching on our phones. It was a little bit of a drive away, near the beach, and there was absolutely no parking on a Friday night. My husband dropped me off and circled while I placed a few to go orders. It was a cute little shop with donuts, shakes, and ice cream. The donuts are not traditional donuts; more like deep fried donut holes that are covered with all kinds of yummy toppings. They're also served nice and hot and in 10 packs. They had lots of cool donut flavors like: Dark Delight, Maple Bacon, , White Tella, and Love U Matcha, The prices range from $8.75 to $9.50 per box. They all sounded yummy; but we decided on Twix Fix, drizzled with caramel, melted chocolate, and cookies, and Lotus Crunch, which was topped with melted Biscoff cookies. Our order was ready in about 5 minutes and the bag of donuts was nice and warm. We ate them when we got back home. They were more chewy and heavier than regular donut holes, but rich and delicious. You could really only eat a few; so a box of 10 is a decent sized dessert for 2 people to share. Lukumades is definitely a very unique donut experience and worth supporting because they're not a huge chain. You'll be glad you tried them....and its worth the drive.

We ordered the Brussel sprouts as an appetizer, they were phenomenal! Then we both decided on steak for dinner. I got the filet, and ordered it medium rare and it was perfect.

I got the German chocolate cake (this apparently isn't their normal one) and my husband got the dulce cheesecake. The waitress we had was great, and she recommended lots of tips and favorites to try. The only negative thing that I would say is that it's a bit cramped, so it was very loud and hard to hear each other at points. This was an amazing dinner. We will be back

Our waiter, Evan, was very proactive & offered suggestions with menu items. We started with some cocktails, the gentlemen with the cider beer & an old fashioned. I chose a glass of bubbly & the birthday girl had the fizz cocktail. It was incredible with a fresh blackberry puree. We started with the fried green tomatoes & the calamari, both were delicious! Calamari was prepared well and not too chewy. We shockingly each chose a salad: the bistro steak, the chop chop Asian, the goat cheese, and the salmon. Each one was incredible. Mine was the chop chop and I absolutely loved it! It was HUGE and you can bet I ate every single bite. Loved it!' We finished with the brownie topped with ice cream for the birthday girl, it was extremely tasty! Thanks again to Evan for making our night! He was a fantastic waiter! Would absolutely request him in the future.

The ham was below average, with one hard bit. My wife didn't like that there was so little pineapple in it. Our Napoleon pastry was pretty good, and I might get it again ($5 for a small one). We both preferred it to the brownie ($4). I don't particularly like brownies, but this one looked particularly appetizing, and the order-taker said it was one of her favorites, so we tried it. That was a mistake. Perhaps I should have tried the mini cream puffs, which are a favorite of mine (3 for $5), instead. Among other things I usually like, they had carrot cake for $7 and a cup of cheesecake for $9 (which seems steep). Their fruit shaped pastries looked beautiful (and a couple next to us said they loved the mango one), but were $12 each. Their fruit-topped Danishes also looked delicious, but weren't available any more at lunch time. They also offer milk shakes and loaded (sweet) croissants. There are only four stools here next to a bar, if you want to eat in. The bathroom was pretty good. I probably wouldn't come here again, but if I were in the area I might try some of their other pastries or sweet treats.

The next morning, we had the sausage and scallion bun at home. I liked it, maybe more than the pork bun, and would get it again, though it had the advantage of being reheated at home in the microwave.

I'd get this again, though probably trying the regular hot dog bun instead of the scallion one next time.

    First of all, where did you guys come from? I've been through Regency Mall four times in the last…read moremonth and I've never seen them. TFCQ definitely has the best store front IMO. It's bursting with personality, bright colors and smiling faces. I had the pleasure of meeting Ashley, one of the owners. Her wife is the Puerto Rican inspiration of the team/menu and she is the southern staple, the funnel cake. There's no prices on the menu (that always makes me nervous lol). I ordered the Strawberry Cheesecake Funnel Cake, it comes with powdered sugar, cheese cake bites, fresh strawberries, strawberry drizzle, vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. I also ordered a side of sweet plantains, rice/black beans totaling $27.35 and at first I was like......"daaaaaaamn" (as I dropped a tip in the jar). . . . BUT . . . My first bite alleviated the cost and took me back to when I had my first elephant ear as a kid on the west coast. Amazing isn't giving them enough credit, this is a memory I won't forget. The plantains were soft, and perfectly cooked and the amount of rice and beans was enough for two meals easily. I'm looking forward to trying the rest of the menu because I can get dinner and dessert in one stop! I support you guys and appreciate how each customer was greeted and treated the same way.

I was introduced to Funnel Cake Queen thanks to Yelp- I got to have a funnel cake sundae for FREE!!! And 2 days later- I went back to try another! Don't judge me! I love baked goods more than ice cream, or ice cream complimenting something else- like pie. So a funnel cake with ice cream is perfect for me! Gives me the "cake" body with ice cream too! I tried the Big Banana Split with the ice cream on the side- whoa! 2 desserts- a funnel cake in all it's powdered sugar goodness and a banana split too! There was so much dessert I was stuffed and in a sugar haze when I left! John got the Chocolate Lovers the first time- with ice cream on the funnel cake- chocolate ice cream with mini-m&m's & a mound of whipped cream. He too- sugar coma. Then on the return I went with the caramel apple and got it on the funnel cake this time and John went with the Oreo Crush with ice cream on the side. Breakdown- ice cream on the cake- great crash of flavors and textures, but if you don't eat quickly enough- the melting ice cream will make the cake soggy. On the side- it's not the eye candy of seeing the almost artistic creation of the funnel cake sundae, but- you can enjoy both on their own or still eat them together without the sogginess. You choose! But- you should totally go and pick a favorite to try!
