    Pistachio and chocolate cake petit gateaux
    Chelsea G.

    Ordered delivery and was quick and came in a cute box and bag. I ordered pistachio and chocolate cake petit gateaux. I wasn't a fan of the pistachio which I was hoping to like, was surprised by the raspberry like filing inside for the description didn't say that. i was thinking it was a fluffy cake but inside it was a hard candy like coating. I knew I would love the chocolate one, very rich and different layers of chocolate.

    Fabulous cookies and cakes....Also beautifully decorated with attention to detail .....I highly recommend this place located on Atlantic and Lyons in the Joseph,s parking lot.. it's tricky to find, but worth it

    "Dulce de leche" dessert

    Girl seemed annoyed but Service was good. The dessert was nasty. I'm Hispanic and know what Dulce de leche is. This dessert did not taste anything like Dulce de leche. Sadly it was thrown away . Super expensive too.

    My friend and I first sampled Damn Good Sweets delectable desserts by chef Julian Belon during a Dessert Wars events. Their coconut confection made such an impression on my friend that she followed their journey into their first brick and mortar store in West Delray Beach. Damn Good Sweets is located in the shopping plaza near the turnpike that has Joseph's Italian Market in it. Go past the Dunkin' Donuts and look for the balloons out front. The store front is small but adorably decked out in pink and marble. There are only four stools at a counter so plan on takeout. We came after dinner on opening day so the selection was pretty thinned out. If you follow them on Instagram they will give you a free scoop of ice cream this week. Their Petite Gateaux, French for little cakes are $10. I got a hazelnut cake and a $5 brownie. Both were good but I wish they added chocolate chips to the brownies. You can order their ice cream by itself or in milkshakes and in ice cream sandwiches. They also sell whole cakes, drip cakes, macarons, and candy by the pound. Prices are steep but inline with a chef driven gourmet bakery. I definitely want to come back early in the day to see more of the selection. Follow them on Instagram to see some of their amazing pastries.

    I came on a whim after driving to Delray for something else. I will definitely return, delicate and intricate desserts illuminated a rather dreary day. Gilberto was super attentive and informative, he was pleasant and helpful through all my questions.

    Wow, this place really lives up to its name. Never had anything like this - really delicious and unique desserts. The mango cake is especially scrumptuous. Best sweets ever!

    I've been reading about this place for a while and finally made it there today. Glad I did just really whatever you say. The sweet Taste as good as it looks. The owner chef was there very nice and pleasant. There's no tasting sorry to say but we did purchase and I was very happy with my butter Loaf and chocolate dessert can't wait to go back and try those cookies well just about anything in the case they are open till 8 PM's during the week and nine PMs on Friday and Saturday they have a few outdoor picnic tables that you can sit there and indulge so after you have dinner, you can stop in and indulge and all I can say it's worth every calorie

    Custom cake. Vahlrona crunch balls and drip. $45 great value for the high quality. This is my new cake spot.

    Want the best quality and unique but approachable treats in palm beach country? This is the place. Display case full of unique treats for all palates. The key lime pie has the perfect tartiness. It's beautiful as a gift in a clear globe. Hazelnut cookies if available are a don't miss. Perfect crunchiness and huge. You can taste the high quality ingredients in all cookies including macadamia and chocolate chip. Another must try is their custom cakes. Most affordable and delicious in the area. I got Oreo filling, moist chiffon vanilla cake (could taste the vanilla-delicious) and Swiss buttercream so airy it melted. What are you waiting for? Perfect place for yourself or a gift.

    I have been waiting for months for this pastry shop to open. Owned by Warren, a high restaurant and whiskey bar in the next shopping center. When I walked in, there were 2 women engrossed in conversation, basically ignoring me for several minutes. Very limited selection and way over priced, cakes @ $75 and small individual desserts @ $10. I bought 2 of the smaller dessert, I must admit that they were good.

    Amazing shop with delicious goodies!! Emily was so helpful and gave us great recommendations. You must try this place!!!

    The inside of Damn Good Sweets looks like a dream. Everything is decorated in pink and white. We picked out an assortment of macaroons: vanilla, chocolate, pistachio, creme brûlée and more. The staff was very welcoming telling us about the delicious treats. I can't wait to buy a cake for something, anything.

    Mousse cake and the inedible egg
    Heidi S.

    first visit , some success mostly not. choc mousse mini cake with ganache was amazing. the chocolate egg that was supposed to be coconut inside was not coconut at all and was inedible. I don't know what it was nor do I know what the "yolk" was either. Flavors were just not discernible the chocolate cookie was ok .

Both were delicious! However $14 for 1 cone & junior sized cup is unbelievable! No normal person could afford this treat. What kid has $7 for a cup of ice cream? And this was the cheapest size on the menu as prices went up from there. So buyer beware before you enter... I'll skip this location and continue to patronize Whit's.

I only remembered because I was with a girlfriend in Boynton Beach and noticed their second location in the same plaza. I had one scoop of the Soflo Swamp (Belgian chocolate with crushed Oreos and chocolate chips), and it was very good. The small cup was larger than I anticipated so I wasn't able to finish it. The shop is spotless, the old-fashioned decor is cute, and everyone was genuinely so friendly. The ice cream is made in small batches using only fresh, locally sourced ingredients. They serve vegan, gluten-free, and no-sugar-added options, and everything is kosher certified. Prices are a little high, but you are paying for quality, and it's worth it. I recommend supporting this family-owned and operated business. Located on the SE corner of Military and Linton, next to Poppies.

A bit more training is warranted... a simple fix... to be sure the end result is something they are proud of. Great product overall... just needs better execution.

Staff seemed like they were there just for their paychecks, and not really caring for the customer service or offering their opinion or recommendations, the night we visited there was a good amount of patrons. There's seating off the right side of the shop and a few towards the back. They have a very wide selection of ice cream flavors. I settled for a dulce deleche, and it was just ok. We ordered that, and I took some pictures and left. The interior was too much for me, personally. Way too much going on.

While the food was generally good--my veal chop from the prix fixe menu was flavorful, though slightly dry--other dishes were, unfortunately, just average. What truly undermined the evening, however, was the service. Throughout the night, several guests struggled with repeatedly unfilled water glasses and had to ask multiple times for basic items. Our waitress hardly checked in until the end of the meal, with minimal follow-up during dinner. The situation escalated when, after paying, our waitress, Haley B, approached the table in a confrontational manner, questioning me directly--three separate times--about the tip, in front of the entire group. Gratuity should reflect the quality of both service and overall experience; being pressured for a higher tip despite the lack of attention was entirely out of line. To make matters worse, my follow-up call to management was equally disappointing. The response was all talk, no action. Unfortunately, the lack of professionalism left a lasting negative impression.
