We stopped by Panterelli after the West Seattle Sunday Farmers Market, wandering in after hearing…read moreabout the best Choux pastries in Seattle. There weren't any other customers inside and we were greeted with an empty display case in the front. While barren, the owner, a gruff* French gentlemen, confirmed that he still had choux pastry left with a choice of either vanilla, coconut, pistachio, or hazelnut. We decided to go with the pistachio, which he assembled fresh for us, first by piping pistachio cream inside the choux shell, then dipping in melted chocolate and sprinkling pistachio on top. Pistachio Choux ($6) - The choux is excellent, baked until deliciously crisp on the exterior while the inside remains soft, eggy, and tender. Since it's fresh filled and we ate it right afterwards, the cream never migrated to saturate the crust - I suspect people with issues with mushiness probably let the cream puff sit too long before consuming. The cream, which is piped to the brim, pushes out against the delicate shell, causing each bite to almost squirt out a bit of the luscious, silky whipped custard. The cream coats the lips and mouth with a layer of fat. It's not too sweet and has a light nutty pistachio flavor. The melted chocolate the top is dipped into glues on all of the pistachio dip. The chocolate is slightly bitter, yet sweet, so it helps cut through some of the rich silkiness of the cream. The pistachios on top act like a crumble, perhaps pulverized and melded with butter to create a very rich yet pistachio forward mix. It's strongly flavored, and the chocolate creates such a strong cement that none of the nuts detach while eating. (5/5) Panterelli was a huge surprise as it wasn't even on our radar until we walked past the shop randomly while exploring the Farmers Market. It's a definite revisit in the future! *The owner isn't nearly as welcoming as a typical American small business owner, but is certainly friendly and eager to chat. I also love his attitude - looks aren't that important; it's the taste the reigns supreme!

Went on a walk and randomly walked into this shop and met Jacques.

He made a great americano and made me the best little Choux bun. We ended up talking for 10 mins and now I feel like I have a new favorite local spot. Can't wait to go back!

Frank's tastebuds were astonished by the exceptional quality of the frosting and overall taste of the cake itself. As it swished around tongue & lips it became an orgasmic experience and one you'd desire to share. Well, maybe not my CC but your own. Not a very big location so you'll need to look hard spot it. Free parking on the street if you're driving. A super nice lady greeted me and boxed up my Lemon Cupcake to be transported home. Cute box for everyone to view what you purchased. You heard it here first from FRANK that this place is AMAZING & Delish! QUALITY & TASTE are the best things in life....

If you are looking for a gorgeous wedding cake and exceptional customer service, I would highly…read morerecommend Baked! From the moment we first contacted Baked about our cakes to the day of the wedding, our entire experience was fantastic. Ali and her crew are absolutely fantastic. The cakes are beautiful. And most of all, they taste GREAT. We opted for a two-tier cake, simple layered design, and then accompanying cake bites for our wedding day. They were delicious...and we ended the night with zero cake bites left and just one or two pieces of cake...that says something! We opted for the cinnamon roll for our cake flavor (YUM!) and then the salted lime margarita and raspberry confetti for our cake bites. It was the perfect mix of flavors for us. An added bonus is that Baked will recreate the top layer of your cake for your one-year anniversary at a discounted price. It was so lovely to not have to worry about saving that top layer...plus, we know it'll taste great when we pick it up next September! Again, we highly recommend Baked for your wedding cake. I'm already thinking of occasions to work with them again.

I would happily go back to Kristina at baked and I highly recommend her!

No offer to heat up our pastries and the cashier eith the blue hair was horrible and clearly did not enjoy serving us. We only went there because our favorite place Snapdragon Bakery was closed. The cost of the pastries at Uptown was ridiculous for the tiny portion. Snap dragons pastries are 4 times the size and much better quality. The service there is impeccable. I really wanted to write this review as a warning so others do not experience the same. Take your business elsewhere. Bakery Nouveau is around the corner with amazing welcoming service. Snapdragon a few blocks away. I have lived in WS for decades and never received such poor service. Im talking to others that are diverse, they mentioned feeling the same so it validated my intuition.

Tried Falafel Salam in West Seattle and overall it was a solid experience. I ordered the chicken…read moreshawarma pita and the chicken shawarma plate. The flavors were definitely there -- well-seasoned, good portions, and everything tasted fresh. The pita sandwich was the standout for me. The chicken was juicy and the toppings balanced really well inside the wrap. The plate was good too, but it didn't hit quite the same as the sandwich -- I think it could use a little more sauce or punch to take it to the next level. Could also cut the chicken and meat to smaller sizes

My friend and I both ordered The Hesitator Combo. For a first time visitor it was a great choice. You get: Falafel, chicken, shawarma, beef gyro, Arab salad, purple slaw, pickled veggies, organic hummus, dolma, tahini, fermented mango sauce, garlic aioli & homemade pita. The protein is so flavorful. Generous portion loved the Arab Salad, purple slaw and pickled vegetables adds brightness to the platter. Oh and did I mention their fluffy homemade pita unlike any other pita I have had. Great vehicle to soak up all the flavor from the meat. Excited to enjoy my leftovers!! Definitely will be back

Add a tip and a drink and suddenly we are $20 for a coffee and a donut. Now, this Goblin LOVES to steal, but it feels like I'm being stolen from. Sometimes the chocolate icing leaves a strange aftertaste. Occasionally there isn't enough vegan Bavarian cream, sometimes I'm swimming in cream. If you get one that is just right, it's hard to taste the difference. But is that enough? The service is solid, but the line can wrap around the sidewalk some weekends. The flow of ordering a donut, to ordering a drink, to receiving your donut needs an engineers opinion. It's generally pretty tight inside, and can be a little dirty on the weekend. A premium product with slightly above average taste.
