This bakery has been our go-to for birthday cakes for over 30 years! From celebrating my own…read morebirthdays as a kid to now celebrating my children's birthdays, they've been incredibly consistent in both quality and taste. One of the things I love most is their frosting. It's light, creamy, and not overly sweet like a lot of other bakeries. It complements the cake perfectly instead of overpowering it. Every cake we've had has been fresh, delicious, and exactly what we've come to expect over the years.

The fruit basket cake is the greatest of all time. I've been coming here for like 20 years? It was…read moremy sisters wedding cake. You must order the mini eclairs and napoleon. Not a traditional creme pat, maybe closer to a diplomat? Always so light and tasty though. I've probably eaten a thousand of these. The owners still work here every day and are super nice. Support this local gem!!!

Stopped in for something refreshing and ordered the watermelon fresca, and wow, it was so good…read more It's the kind of drink that makes you want to park yourself by a pool and pretend you have zero responsibilities. I'm still thinking about it. I don't live nearby, but my mom does, so I'll absolutely be back for another next time I'm in the area, especially when Poway turns into a summer oven.

Wherever you see a La Michoacana shop, you know you're in for great ice cream. Everything is high…read morequality and uses fresh ingredients. You'll have your choice of cones, smoothies, banana splits, or almost anything else you can think of. But La Michoacana Sonmex in Poway really stands out from the rest. It is more than just an ice cream store! It has snacks, fresh fruit, and a wide variety of fresh made lunch items. There are elotes, ceviche, tostadas, and and the sandwiches are all delicious! The bread is fresh and so are the fillings. My husband had a roast pork sandwich and I had a cheese sandwich. Next time, I'll try the tuna. To go with our sandwiches, we had a cucumber agua fresca, and I also had a cafe de olla. Everything was outstanding. As soon as we walked through the door, the owners, Guillermo and Maricela made us feel welcome and took special care of us, explaining the various options. And we were not the only customers in the store! But somehow, they took care of all of us while preparing the food at the same time. Tallk about multitasking! I did see a sign on the menu noting a new phone number, 858-842-1974, so if you can't get through on the published number, you might try that one until things get settled.

Love the interior design (tile, ceiling, booth seating, and wood tables) and the veranda (matches…read moreplaza) for outdoor seating. Staff are seen busy making multitudes of items for the long drive thru line. My iced coffee was cold, tangy, and bitter, balanced with a splash of half n half.

This Starbucks location was overall good. I'd rate it 3.5 stars…read more Parking is easy, lots of spots in the lot. The inside of the store is spacious with a lot of tables to sit down to chat with a friend or enjoy your drink. Our drinks were fine. I still think it's ridiculous we pay $6-12 for one drink and they charge for every additional thing at that price. Service could be a little friendlier but our drinks came out pretty quickly.

Handel's never disappoints!…read more My usual go-to is the 4-flavor sampler because choosing just ONE flavor here feels basically impossible. Every flavor I've tried has been amazing! This time, I had friends visiting from out of town, so we upgraded our strategy and ordered the 4-pack of pints. Everyone got to pick their own flavor, and it was a HUGE hit. By the end of the night, every single person was raving that it was The Best ice cream they've ever had! Creamy, delicious, tons of amazing flavors, and apparently now part of my official San Diego visitor experience. If you're in Del Mar, do yourself a favor and stop at Handel's. And definitely get more than one flavor. You'll thank me later!

I typically enjoy one of their Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies every night, before putting the…read moreremainder outside in my car...I simply cannot be trusted around them. The Brookies are delicious but the Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies have inspired a humiliating loss of self control. Half way through the first cookie I found myself looking for the 'Careers' page of their website in the event employment comes with a discount for my gluttony. Their service was great but let's face it, they could have stolen my identity and I'd still order again. THE COOKIES ARE THAT GOOD. Delivery was timely, communication was consistent, the cookies were orgasmic...everything my last relationship was lacking. Cannot recommend enough and cannot wait to try more of the menu!

This is my 2nd time ordering from Little Oven and both times, the food has been consistently…read moredelicious. I first tried the Dark Chocolate Pistachio Crookie at a wellness event Soukaina was vending at a few months ago.... and I could not stop thinking about it! Same goes for the Eggless Banana Bread Cookies So I ordered some for my mom and brother's birthday celebration and thought to try the Bana Bread Crookies and Snickerdoodle with Cookie Butter Crookies. Everyone who tried it LOVED them. The taste and texture of the crookies are just so unique and sweet, and the cookies are also uniquely delectable. It's all just soooo good Soukaina is also so communicative and reliable with planning this order and the delivery. She baked it fresh the morning that I needed it. I 100% recommend working with her and trying these sweet treats!!

I frequent Costco for the necessities and for fun!…read more I was excited to try the new mint sundae. I got a vanilla & mint swirl with the toppings - chocolate sauce and cookie crumbles. Next time, I'll get full mint for a stronger flavor. Bonus if you get the mini chocolate chip cookies from their bakery inside. SO PERFECT together. The service is as fast as can be, and the employees are always working so hard for their customers. So appreciated!!

Parking - rough…read more Ordering whole pizzas a head of time - Pro Move 1 Waiting an extra 20 minute after the pizzas are supposed to be ready - expected for next time So here is the process. Call the number. Order ahead (e.g., 4 pepperoni and 3 cheese pizzas for 12:20). Pro Move 2, ask them to double cut if the party is for kids as the slices are big, sometimes they cannot do it if it is busy. Search for parking. Pay for all of the pizzas at the payment kiosk (requires you scan you Cost Co card). Go to the side window to let them know you are there. Wait. Pro Move 3, find an empty cart if you are getting a bunch of pizza. Wait. Wait some more. Then get the pizzas, put them in the cart and go off to your party a hero. We ended up with two more pizzas than we needed, but each pizza is like $10 so better not to run out.

It's still the same Golden Spoons but they have a small fridge carrying a few kokonut products (about $10/11 per jar.. too expensive imo). The folks working here are usually young high schoolers but they are always nice, polite and friendly. I've never had a bad experience here. Golden Spoons is a old classic froyo place.. nothing to dislike. :) Old spot.. clean and reliable ice cream stop after the library or korean bbq.
