    Artisana on Pinemont is a superior first class OMG bakery. The croissants are perfect. When you bite into them they flake all Over you exactly as a great croissant should. The sourdough breads are excellent. Highly recommended. After the really bad experience that I had at that highly touted bakery in Friendswood, what a pleasure to visit a place that does everything right.

    As soon as I saw the baked good, I had a bad feeling. They all looked like they were display items that had been left to dry and that's how they tasted. When they plopped everything in a bag, my heart sank further. It looked like disappointment and tasted like it too. Fresh baked pastries aren't treated like carnival trash. Even hours later I'm still mad I wasted my time coming here. Ugh beyond frustrated.

    I've been buying sourdough bread loaves from supermarkets, but always remember the higher quality sourdough from Artisana. What I like about this sourdough is it tends to be softer and made with higher quality organic flour and ingredients. I called ahead to inquire if the loaf could be sliced, and when I arrived at the Artisana shop, the attendant discussed different types of sourdough bread, like the pain de campagne variety. I am curious about trying the olives and rosemary sourdough next. Service here was really good here and it was easy to find a parking space. Highly recommended for fellow sourdough lovers. 5/5

    I can't believe this has been so close to my house for years and I never saw it! We got a baguette and it was absolutely amazing. Also had a peach pastry that was very tasty.

    You guys I am OBSESSED! I almost don't want to post a review. But I did, because I am not a gate keeper. The sourdough, doesn't have preservatives, but I swear I will eat this bread with no butter and not even toasted. Am I crazy? Yea I am over this bread YO! The puff pastries were really puffin! Like the CRONCH. I am excited to come back to try more stuff!!

    .: 2/24/2024 Edit :. After writing this review, I received a message from the business that they will be bringing back the cardamom buns on Friday and Saturday this spring! Everyone go out and support them! ______________________________________ It pains me deeply to write this review, but I am still giving Artisana 5 stars - if by some remote chance someone associated with the business reads these Yelp reviews: BRING BACK THE CARDAMOM BUNS - PLEASE!! I had been craving Swedish cardamom buns (kardemummabullar) ever since returning from a trip to Stockholm. It was a struggle to find these in Houston, until I found Artisana - they used to sell them on weekends at the store and the Urban Harvest Farmer's Market. They were delicious! I was so ecstatic to find a place to get my fix. You can imagine my disappointment when they informed me they were going to stop selling them. I really didn't get an explanation, seemed odd in that they seemed to always be sold out of them :( Part of me is hopeful they will reverse course in the future. In the meantime, if anyone knows where I can find cardamom buns in Houston, DM me! Regardless, their baguettes are excellent - I would put them #2 (second only to Magnol, who is the reigning champ in HTX in my opinion). Pleeeeese bring back the kardemummabullar!

    Came in the other day to pick up a bag and some bread. Parking is easy as there's a lot in front along with a few dedicated spots. It's fairly small, so I would imagine that it could get crowded on a more busy day. There is a wide variety of delicious-looking pastries and breads available to buy all on display on the counter. It also smells really nice inside because of all of the fresh-baked goods. The people behind the counter were professional, kind, and gave us recommendations to try. After the bag pick-up we got the Blueberry Almond Bostock and a loaf of plain sourdough bread. The pastries are delicious. The bread is a bit more on the sour side (in a good way) and the crust is excellent. We got a Cinnamon Roll, a Salted Honey Pistachio Cookie, and a Ham and Cheese Croissant. I highly recommend the cookie and the bostock. The cookie was probably our favorite - it has a very similar taste to a Turkish dessert called kalburabastı or perhaps şekerpare, with the cookie being drenched honey syrup and the delicious chopped pistachio throughout. Also like these desserts, it is very dense and best enjoyed in small pieces at a time to truly savor. I believe there may have also been white chocolate in the cookie as well. Whatever the case, it was delicious. Would definitely come back another day to try more items.

    I am blown away by the quality and ingredients in their products. I discovered their bread at a farmers market and have become addicted. Let me put it this way, if you want to eat bread like a skinny European, buy your bread here. There are NO chemicals of any kind in their breads. I can eat slice after slice of the sourdough and have no bloat or indigestion. I believe in this business so much and have yet to find another bread in town with such freshness. If you're a bread lover but your tummy isn't, try this place out and have a ball. The staff is so friendly and put health, quality, and freshness into every loaf!

I also heard great things about the mango mochi so we couldn't leave without those. Thankfully they still had some in stock. I heard they sell out quickly especially on weekends. Those also lived up to its hype. SO YUMMY! Tastes so fresh including the mangoes. My kiddo who LOVES mango anything loved them so much! My husband also got 2 savory pastries (I forgot what they were called and I forgot to take a picture) and those were yummy too. Perfectly flakey crust just like the egg tarts. We wanted to get sesame balls but they were sold out. Customer service was great. The guy that took our order was very nice. It was pretty busy but he moved through the line quickly. There's some seating inside if you want to eat there. Prices are very reasonable at $2 each for the mochi and egg tarts. The savory pastries were $3. It's located in a shared lot/area. Parking can be tight and limited on a busy weekend day but they have parking right out front for the Eck bakery customers. Also note that if you pay with card it's a 2.5% charge so cash is better if you have it. We didn't but we know now for future. We had a great experience here and will definitely be back. Next time we'll come earlier and get a bigger order and try their other offerings.

Since we were already in the area after breakfast at TJ's Filipino Cuisine, we finally got the chance to stop by and try their baked goods for ourselves. We arrived early, so the bakery wasn't too busy yet. The bakers were busy prepping more goodies in the back while my cousin and I browsed all the Filipino baked goods we really miss from back home in the Philippines. They even had suman, sapin-sapin, biko, and other kakanin, which was nice to see. I specifically looked for the chicken empanada, and my cousin wanted to try the ube white chocolate chip cookie. We also saw different kinds of siopao and planned to come back later to buy some before heading back to San Antonio. We tried the ube white chocolate chip cookie first, but honestly we weren't totally satisfied. It tasted more like a regular white chocolate chip cookie with purple coloring and didn't really have much ube flavor. I also tried the chicken empanada. My cousin didn't like it because it was sweeter than expected--we were both expecting it to be savory. There seemed to be caramelized sugar in the outside of the pastry, which probably added to the sweetness. I still like it, though it was definitely sweeter than what I'm used to. Red Ribbon's chicken empanada is still my favorite. Later that day before leaving Houston, we came back for the siopao we planned to take home. We finally decided to just buy a couple pieces for ourselves, heat them up in the bakery, and try them fresh. When we saw the price for a four-pack, we were honestly disappointed. It felt expensive for the size. The siopao wasn't huge, and while I like the dough, there wasn't much chicken filling inside. For the portion, taste, and quality, it felt overpriced. Overall, it's probably not worth making another trip back for us. We did enjoy the cassava ube suman, and I like the chicken empanada, but not enough to drive all the way to Houston just for those. If I live nearby, I might come back to try other baked goods, but based on this visit, I'm not sure the rest would impress my palate. I still give them credit for cleanliness and customer service, although we did notice fruit flies on one of the shelves and reported it. The staff was friendly, and the bakery itself was welcoming. At the end of the day, since they're a bakery, the expectation is great-tasting, quality, mouthwatering Filipino breads, pastries ", and kakanin. While some items were enjoyable, overall it just didn't quite live up to the hype for us.
