Yes to everything about these cookies. -Texture (crisp outside, soft and gooey inside) -Infinite amount of chocolate chips -Temperature (EAT while they're warm, just melts in your mouth) -Packaging Basically, just all the details: lots of thought and love went into baking these delicious goodies! Each bite felt like a treat. I never had anything like it. I just can't compare it to any other cookies. You MUST try them! Plus, they have friendly service, and easy pick up location. read more

These are hands down my favorite cookies. The husband and wife who own the business are super nice and friendly as well! My favorite cookie of all time is a chocolate chip cookie with walnuts and I was so happy to find that Bake Some Noise makes them. All their cookies are good honestly. My kids love the reg Choc Chip and my brother in law loves their Peanut Butter one. The cookies are perfectly crisp on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside. I highly recommend microwaving them for 10-15 seconds if you can. It's perfection!! I have bought from them so many times and shared them with friends, family and coworkers. I just ate one today, I'll order more soon! read more

These cookies are a DREAM! The outside is toasted and the inside is chocolate and gooey - WOW. I only ordered 3 cookies, and that was a mistake, they were all gone before I even got home! The man who dropped off the cookies was super nice and patient as well. I accidentally parked on the wrong street and he walked around the building to meet us. I'll definitely be back! read more

Uhmmmm YUUUUUUUUM!!!!!! First and foremost, PROMOTE FILIPINO BUSINESSES. So happy to see my people succeeding! YYAAAASSSSS Secondly, holy MOLY these cookies are FIRE! SO GOOD! My friend ordered some of these cookies for me for my birthday and now that person is my best friend of all time. hahaha I got a combo box with three different flavors: chocolate chip, chocolate chip walnut, and chocolate peanut butter. And I truly loved every flavor. I was almost certain I'd like the plain chocolate chip the best, but each cookies was just as delicious as the other. These cookies texturally are some of the BEST cookies I've ever had. Not even joking. These cookies manage to be crispy on the inside and soft/slightly underdone on the inside. The directions recommend to put these cookies in a 350 oven for 5 minutes and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU DO THIS. I actually put them in for a bit longer (about 6 minutes) and the cookies were SO much better after being in the oven. They were crispy and warm and ooey gooey. Surprisingly, the shelf life on these cookies are pretty damn good. I ended up heating up extra cookies a week after I received them and they were still delicious after being warmed up in the oven. Overall, when warmed up in the oven, these cookies are some of the best I've ever had. I did want just a little bit more salt in the overall cookie, but it was still delicious as is. I hope to order these cookies again in the near future! read more

First of all, I was thrilled to support these local LA & Filipino independent business owners! I've been hearing the hype over these cookies and I'm not even active on the socials, so that speaks volumes to why their brand is quickly picking up a buzz throughout LA by word of mouth! Ya heard? I'll get to the cookies... but first lemme just tell you about how cute their branding is!! So dope! Their IG, their website, their mission and vibe is a nod to the golden age of hip hop! So throw in a lot of nostalgia, cute marketing, passion for cookies that is palpable, "small-batch" made to order with love from the LA-native couple & a whole lot of LA pride and you got yourself a clear runner in THE best chocolate cookie hustle in the city! The cookies really speak for themselves, because they are AMAZING! They are soft and gooey on the inside with crispy edges --everything you ever wanted in a chocolate chip cookie!! Not too sweet either and you can definitely taste the quality ingredients used. This is LA after all so I am happy to report they are made with the highest quality ingredients and they never use any preservatives or artificial flavors per their website. It looks like they are also currently working on vegan options too! The flavors: classic choc chip, choc chip + walnut, & choc chip + peanut butter. I really thought the classic was going to be my favorite coz when it comes to chocolate chip cookies I'm a purist and hands down always prefer traditional. And yes it did live up to the hype! But whoah all their flavors were delicious! Loved the walnut, not overwhelming and just the right balance of nuts. But what really surprised me was that the peanut butter ended up being my favorite! I was expecting it to be too much with the PB tbh but they use PB chips that just melt & blend so well with the choc chips when you bake them in the oven. Literally each bite I just kept waiting with anticipating for them lil PB chips! The hype is real, and soooooo on point because these cookies are so yum!! I kept trying to buy off their website but they were sold out so the hubby surprised me with them for my birthday last month and they were the main desert event at my birthday party! I mean I did have cake but these were clearly the crowd favorite. Do yourself a favor and get you some cookies, I can promise you that the wait is worth it! I highly recommend you get the variety pack because you might just be surprised to find out which flavor is your fave! Definitely bake them if you can because there isn't anything better than a warm gooey choc chip cookie fresh out tha oven, but honestly I loved them "cold" and straight out of the packaging too! LOL! Go support Bake Some Noise! Coz LA needs a brick and mortar ASAP! read more

Cookies generally aren't my choice of snacks, but I'm always down for a good PB and Chocolate chip cookie. The cookie is crunchy on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside. These cookies are rich and delicious. I love the soft chewy center they just hit the spot. They currently have 3 flavors and 1 vegan options, and they're all very tasty even the vegan cookie. I've purchase these cookies around the holidays and shared them with my co-workers and they've all come back asking where I got them. Warm it up in the oven, it makes it so much better! And if you want top it off with some vanilla ice cream. read more

Oh My God. I never write reviews. Good or bad. I always feel like I don't have the time... or I start getting hyper critical about the words I'm choosing. It just never happens. But these cookies are so unreal that I stopped eating, picked up my phone, and I'm writing a review. UNBELIEVABLE. It's as though you read my mind as to what a real chocolate chip cookie should be...and WARM! I encourage any cookie connoisseur to find a place where you can order a warm cookie to your home when you most need it at nearly any time of the day (or within business hours - you know what I mean.) Like where would you find that?! Turns out not too far from my house. Lucky me: ) Thank you, thank you, thank you for turning my day around with a single cookie. Let's Bake Some Noise!!! read more

These cookies are special. Like "Holy Sh*t Special." It's gonna come at a price that's above average, but that's because you're paying for bomb-ass cookies. The owners, Caroline and Ren, are extremely accommodating and unbelievably nice people. Bomb-ass people making bomb-ass treats. Makes sense. It comes across in the care taken with each cookie that's individually wrapped and labeled. Love the branding too. If you're complaining about how it's undercooked, you haven't read the directions. It's made to be baked for 5 minutes (we use a toaster oven). After your first run, it will become the longest 5 minutes you'll ever experience because you can't wait until it's done to shove them inside your face hole. I thought a 5 minute UFC round felt long, but this is worth every minute! Also, whoever thinks these cookies are just average -- you need to book another COVID-19 test appointment because your tastebuds may have been permanently effed. Get that checked yo. read more

Crunch on the outside, soft and moist on the inside... very difficult to attain, but BSM has mastered it. I've tried all of the flavor combinations offered, but Chocolate Chip is my favorite. I suggest picking them up, as fresh out of the oven is best, but they also save well too. Easily "resurrected" by warming them up in the oven for 5-6 mins. (as directed) I regularly pick up a box/month for my fix! read more

I've been eating cookies my entire life and never knew it could be an EXPERIENCE. First of all, Bake Some Noise drops their cookies online at 12:30 pm twice a week and if you don't get your order in by 12:35 pm, you have to wait for the next drop. That is some real hypebeast sh*t but once I had the cookies, I understood why. These cookies are like some insanely good combination of a muffin and a soft-batch cookie (hand-crafted) and TB effing H I couldn't stop eating them once I received a dozen. Unfortunately, for my friends that I said "You gotta try one of these cookies," they were gone by the time they had a chance. Also, unfortunately, I've gained some serious weight since I started ordering these once a week. Good luck getting a box because they go super quick so I recommend following them on IG so you know when they're dropping. read more

Bake Some Noise pulls out all the stops when it comes to cookies. From the carefully crafted hand shaped dough to the packaging and experience, you can tell that there is some serious method behind this madness. Upon opening the box, you know that you're going on a flavor adventure and you must dive right in. The cookies are cooked perfectly and the size of the cookies is a happy medium between being cookie content or wanting to smash another....either way you're winning. They recommend warming them up in the oven since "Cookies don't belong in the microwave!" ...and they're right!..but If you've never warmed up your cookies in an oven, don't worry about it...they're just as good and sometimes arguably even better right out of the wrapper. You can't eat these the wrong way, but you CAN end up on the wrong side of 12:40pm PST on Thursdays and NOT get your order in. THESE. ARE. A. MUST. TRY. and then try again, and again and again. read more

Went to the pop up in downtown LA this past weekend. Had to see what the hype was about and to support a small business. I was disappointed by the size and price of the cookies. Cookies were so small considering they were $3.75 per cookie! Nothing super special about the cookies. I bought a dozen to share with my family and a few were not cooked all the way through. Hopefully the quality gets better and doesn't go down as they try to prepare large amounts of cookies for the pop up. read more

Fondry honestly amazed me! Every single pastry we tried was perfectly made. My favorite was…read moredefinitely the kouign amann which is kind of like a croissant, but sweeter, richer, and a little more dense. I also loved the mushroom bechamel danish. It was super flavorful and surprisingly filling. For drinks, I got the MVP (matcha vanilla pistachio) and it was delicious too. Overall, such a great bakery that I'd definitely recommend checking out! They have a small parking lot, and if it's full, there should be plenty of street parking nearby (at least when I went right around opening time).

Been eyeing this spot for quite some time. Parking is easy they have a parking lot but very limited…read morespace, parking on York Blvd didn't seem to have any restrictions either. Not too sure how weekend parking is, I visited on a Wednesday around noon. Neighborhood residential street might be a good option for parking on Avenue 47 but street sweeping (No Parking) is from 8-10am Wednesday on one side and Thursday on the other side. Orange Blossom Almond Croissant -personally was disgusting, orange blossom was extremely strong. Too fragrant that it tasted like a floral bath bomb or soap. Some do like this but it wasn't for me. Tofu Cloud Croissant Toast -cream on top was pretty salted, to help balance the caramelized sugar that helps press the croissant into a toast. Overall, it wasn't wasn't bad but wasn't good and slightly too salted. Passionfruit Croiffin- texture of the croissant/muffin was great! Buttery, flaky and light. Passionfruit cream filling wasn't too sweet. I loved the tart passionfruit seeds. But you might want to scoop some out if you don't enjoy too much sourness. Elderflower Rhubarb Danish - way too crunchy, would prefer it to be crispy instead of a crunch. Filling was good, not too sweet. Black Sesame Parisian Flan -if you love black sesame, this would be right up your alley. Perfect sweet treat to bring to any auntie's home! Blueberry Tea Scone -not too dense. Surprisingly not too sweet even with the demerara sugar coating. It wasn't really crunchy but more sticky and caramelized from sitting.

Not sure if there is a consistent long line every weekend since it was a holiday, but my initial thought was either this place has really good pastries and cakes or it can be just all hype. As we made it in, you order as you walk down the selection of pastries then to the cakes. I ordered a danish with strawberries, chocolate croissant, almond croissant, tiramisu, and a yuzu cake. At the end we were pleasantly told our order came with two complimentary macarons so we got the cookoes and cream and passionfruit. Afterwards, we sat at the store to try the danish since we were hungry. Have to say it measures up to another one of my favorite patisseries that is located in Del Mar called Clemente. The danish texture was soft yet super flakey, and the thin layer of vanilla cream to strawberry ratio was perfection. It's so hard to find places that have exceptional quality croissant pastries, but this place is on the top of our list for LA. We enjoyed the cakes at home afterwards, but everything was so delicious. Unfortunately we forgot to take oir own ice packs and took a minute to get back home so the cakes slightly melted, but even after putting them in the fridge to enjoy later, they were so good! Highly recommend Artelice if you're looking for

They perfectly warmed both body and soul on a chilly LA morning. If I lived nearby, I'd eat these every day! We also tried the yuzu cream pan, which was also pretty epic. The topping was a little crunchy, complementing the soft bread and creamy and smooth tart filling. This is definitely my new favorite Japanese bakery in the US!

I used to stop by this bakery whenever I was in Ktown because I thought it was pretty solid. But…read moreafter today, I've definitely changed my mind. I got a sausage bbang, a chocopie, and a dalgona latte. The sausage bbang was soggy on the bottom and honestly tasted like it was from the day before. The chocopie barely had any filling, just a thin layer of marshmallow and jam. It honestly felt like they used most of the marshmallow for their Dubai choco cookie because it's probably more profitable, instead of properly filling the chocopie. If that's the case, it's better not to sell it at all than serve something like that. The dalgona latte was also disappointing. With ice, the drink only filled to the bottom third line of the cup marking. Clearly, they skimped on the milk. There was also a weird moment when I paid. My total was $15.25 and I paid cash, but I was given $4.75 in change. When I said it should be $5, she seemed confused and asked what I meant. I told her I literally gave you a quarter right now, and she questioned it before eventually giving me the correct change. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and assume it was a mistake. I understand times are hard, but charging more for products that clearly had corners cut doesn't sit right with me. It just comes across like there's no integrity. Clearly the quality and portions are going downhill. I wasn't even planning on writing this review. I was going to stay quiet, but the chocopie really ticked me off. I'm not going to pay for food that skims on ingredients and shortchanges customers by charging more for less, so this will be my last visit.

My friend got the strawberry brick toast and although the presentation was a little messy, the toast was solid. I think my issue is just that it feels more like a bakery than a cafe. It's not the best place to study because their seating is outside, meaning no outlets. You are also super close by the street and sidewalk so lots of external noise. Parking is a bit hard but that's ktown for you. For sure the treats are good but wouldnt describe this place as one of my go-to's in korea town to study nor to catch up with my friends.

And I know that vanilla cupcakes with buttercream frosting is pretty easy to make, but sometimes I'd rather just buy baked goods than make them for myself, especially when I'm driving past what I thought was a popular (and presumably good) bake shop. I expected a high-quality cupcake. The cupcakes looked cute, but they were as dry as the Sahara. They should have been labeled as white cupcakes as I didn't detect any vanilla in them. I suspect that the "buttercream" was made with milk and margarine and powdered sugar.....so much powdered sugar. It was sickeningly sweet, and it was dry too. And a true bettercream doesn't even use powdered sugar. So not only were the cupcakes terrible, they were not even what they purported to be. This is like calling a cut of meat a filet mignon and serving a hamburger. Von's, Ralphs and Albertson's make better cupcakes than this for a fraction of othe price.

Sure enough, we were seated right away. My daughter and I love the Portobello fries for a starter. They are so delicious and crispy, and the dipping sauce pairs perfect. For our meal we decided to share a Cesar salad and a pizza. For dessert we actually wanted the CHOCOLATE FRAMBOISE but they were all out. They actually were out of quite a bit of their pastries. The whole pastry counter was completely empty. I asked the server why it was empty and he mentioned they sold out due to graduation season. I decided on the crème brûlée and my daughter ordered chocolate gelato. We enjoyed our dessert. As for the ambiance, if you're looking for a romantic quiet restaurant for dinner. Bottega Louie is not for you. It is a loud up beat restaurant. I personally enjoy it. They have a person making the pizza towards the back and this night a table of guests were cheering him on as he threw the pizza dough up in the air multiple times. So fun to watch!

We ate the Belgian waffle last. I thought it would have been too dense or soggy by the end of our meal. It ended up being completely perfect.
