We sat outside to eat our pastries and they tasted great fresh. The salt & butter roll was my favorite, so simple but soft and pillowy. They use Hokkaido flour which gives their pastries a unique texture, They have a lot of options including both sweet and savory. The only thing that kind of let me down was their honey butter croissant... it's just a little tip of a croissant, it was tasty but a tiny portion. The croissant low key reminded us of Costco croissants (no shade to Costco lol). We also ordered drinks, and their matcha tasted great! Overall if you're looking for some delicious and adorable treats, I recommend trying it!

The portions across the board are generous, high-quality, and worth every penny. As you can see from my previous review, their chicken katsu is one of my faves. It is crisp on the outside, and tender on the inside. It's a generous portion with plenty of Japanese curry sauce, and I love the pickled red ginger. There is a kiosk available from 9:30 to 5 pm, where you can now order and pay for their katsu items. I believe the Chicken Katsu Curry was around $17.99. You need to show the receipt when they call your name. I also picked up a couple of sandwiches. The Tuna Butter Roll hits the spot for a quick, comforting lunch. It is packed with creamy tuna, cucumber, and tomato slices--at just around $3.50, it's an incredible value. The Sandwich Box assortment (egg, ham, turkey, tuna) gives you a little bit of everything, making it perfect for a satisfying light lunch on the go.

Absolutely phenomenal. Great flavor. The whipped cream is slightly too sweet but amazing otherwise. Love the red bean in here. There's a good mix of textures. Feels light thanks to the cream.

Anyway, selection was pretty low on mostly everything, maybe they had a rush earlier? MThere was a very young person staffing the register, maybe a young teenager like 14 or so? She was very helpful even though she didn't know the answer to any of my questions but was game to go to the back and ask the invisible worker in the back room for the answers. I saw a big coffee urn in the corner with a cinnamon tea sign on it and asked if it has sugar in it. She didn't know. But she found out! I asked how much it was. She didn't know. But she found out! Unfortunately she also found out it was cold bc the urn has been unplugged. I touched the urn to gauge how cold the tea was but discovered it was mostly empty anyway. Got any cream cheese pastries? She didn't know. But she found out! (The answer is no.) I bought a couple pastries just bc the kid was so nice and helpful (my arm is in a sling and she even offered to help get the pastries for me.) One of the pastries was chilled in the fridge and felt really light, a bad sign that it's going to be dry. I bought it anyway. Panaderias are usually super cheap and I was surprised that my two pastries totaled $5. Yes I know $5 is nothing in most bakeries but there is a Northgate Market right next door and they have pan dulces for way under $1 each. IDK how this place stays in business. Prospects aren't good for finding what you want in this small bakery and it's too expensive for the quality but the service is really helpful so I'm giving it three stars. Considering the complaints about service in the other reviews, I probably won't return.

(Also posting on their Farmhouse Yelp because I'm not sure which is correct)…read more I visited the Amarith Cafe website under the "Bakehouse" section and saw that they offered custom decorated cupcakes. I called the Orange location to place an order, but they informed me that custom orders needed to be placed through the Garden Grove location and provided me with their contact information. When I called Garden Grove, I requested 24 funfetti-flavored cupcakes decorated with a rainbow theme. I wasn't particular about the exact design but specified that they should include rainbows or have colorful decorations. The person taking my order assured me that I would receive a call the following weekend to confirm the design. That call never came, but I assumed "rainbow" was a clear enough instruction. The week before my scheduled pickup, I called to confirm my order and requested to add six more cupcakes. I specifically asked, "These will be rainbow, right?" and was told yes. On the pickup day, my husband retrieved the cupcakes, but the six additional ones I had ordered the previous week were missing. Staff had to quickly add them that morning, and while understandable, they ended up being vanilla instead of funfetti. However, none of the cupcakes--neither the original 24 nor the additional six--had any rainbow decorations or color at all. Additionally, the boxes provided for the cupcakes have a perforated middle designed to keep them in place, but it was flimsy and sagged in the box, causing nearly all of the cupcakes to fall over during transport to the party. While the cupcakes themselves tasted good, I was disappointed by the order confusion, lack of decoration, and the fact that they arrived smashed. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this place.
