    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!

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. My wife liked the dough, the hot dog less so (and I must admit the hot dog in the croissant we had a while ago at Cruffin & Tea was better). I'd get this again, though probably trying the regular hot dog bun instead of the scallion one next time. I'd asked the server if she could reheat our items when I bought them, but she said no, and didn't seem to understand English well. So far, I've preferred the savory things to the sweets here. Each item was $3-3.25, so a better value than the other bakeries I go to. I will return to this place periodically, but I still prefer places like Cruffin & Tea and Le Petit Paris, so I'm giving Mai Xiang Garden Bakery an average rating, 3 stars: pretty good, but not above average for a bakery, other than the good value.

From the moment we laid eyes on the pastry case, our jaws were on the floor. Everything we had was amazing -- the breakfast sandwich on sourdough, ham & cheese croissant, matcha cheesecake blueberry croissant tart, and the brie country ham & hot honey galette. JUST WOW! We also got some lattes to fuel our morning and I opted for their special brown butter sesame latte -- yum! The bakery itself is very cute with some market and pantry items available to shop as well. The staff was very patient as we asked a million questions about all the pastries before making our selections. Highly recommend this spot if you're in the downtown Jax area!

To share, we got the matcha cheesecake blueberries danish, the brie country ham and hot honey galette, and a ham and cheese croissant. Everything was delicious and devoured! The inside is also super cute to peruse around and maybe grab something. They have stickers, and a few odds and ends that might interest anyone to get at least one thing. Such a cute bakehouse in Jax!

I was welcomed into the store as soon as I entered. The young man asked if it was my first time at the bakery. Then he took his time to give me a tour of the sweet and savory bakery items that they have on display and taught me how to select items by choosing a basket and a set of tongs for my choices. I purchased a banana muffin, which was almost as big as my fist and still could only eat half of it in a sitting. I also ordered the turkey sandwich on a ciabatta roll, which was just the perfect combination of meat, greens, avocado, and cheese in a beautifully baked roll. Have you ever had a sandwich whose flavors build with every bite? This is truly a unique bakery in Jacksonville, and we should do all that we can to support it. Tell your friends! You won't be disappointed.
