I was so excited to get to try Ayu Bakehouse for the first time. On the corner of Frenchmen and…read moreDauphine in a beautiful corner building, it's just so appealing. There are some cute tables and chairs outside as well as about 10-15 seats at counters inside. I was greeted when I walked in and got in line at the counter. The pastries looked so fresh and delicious it was hard to choose just one. I went with a Pan O Chocolat, a chocolate filled croissant and iced latte. The prices are typical for a coffee and pastry. The croissant was so flaky and mouth watering. I ate very slowly enjoying each bite. The iced latte was good as well. I sat right by the espresso machine and enjoyed watching the baristas making coffees. I saw one come out with a perfect heart on top. They also have full bread loaves for sale as well as items for breakfast and lunch. I will definitely be back to try another pastry.

I lucked out by finding Ayu Bakehouse. They happened to be located on the same block as my Airbnb…read more They have a wide variety of baked goods to choose from, with the ham & cheese croissant and parm & chive biscuit being my favorites. I wasn't a fan of the cinnamon roll due to the crunchiness of the raw cane sugar on top. Ayu is a counter service restaurant with a full service coffee setup. The line moves fairly quickly, so don't be deterred if the line is out the door. Seating is very limited, so we took our items to go. Definitely worth the visit!

First time here! The pastries are great--I tried the Bearclaw and the croissant, and both were…read moreabsolutely delicious. The bakery has a cool open-concept layout where you can see the staff cooking and baking. However, the open kitchen also revealed some pretty noticeable hygiene issues. I noticed the staff preparing food without gloves, and I even watched an employee eat a tortilla while actively assembling burritos. Additionally, no one was wearing hairnets or hair restraints. Beyond that, seating is very limited (similar to other Bearcat locations), so I highly recommend ordering to-go!

We ordered one crab beignet each and grabbed a table nearby. The crab lumps inside were super tender and savory, I loved every single bite of it! I thought it was flavorful enough without the sauce so i didn't add much of it but my friends really liked the sauce as well. I wish the beignet itself was a bit more fluffy but I could eat the crab filling all day. Would definitely come back again!

The bakery has a light, airy, and intentional vibe that balances the rigorous standards of a serious artisan kitchen with the warmth of a local neighborhood spot. The baked goods are truly some of the best in New Orleans. The technical execution is flawless, and you can taste the high standards in every item. My absolute must-haves are the breakfast sandwiches and the croissants. The crisp, buttery layers are perfect. Highly recommend!

I could say everything was perfect here (super rich, flavorful, and sweet). I had their Spumoni Cheesecake which was good, my buddy recommended and ordered their Alaska cake which was good (but a bit too rich and sweet for me). Try and support local shops, Angelo was a perfect night cap to dinner. About 15 minutes away from Bourbon St, they also have locations in the airport too if you need your Italian dessert fix!

Best thing: The Spumoni Ice Cream and the Baked Alaska…read more Type of Food: Sicilian/Italian Desserts, Gelato, and Pastries. Review: Angelo Brocato is a classic stop if you're looking for great sweet treats. The Spumoni Ice Cream was incredibly good, and the Baked Alaska definitely didn't disappoint either--both are highly recommended. We also tried the Rum Custard; while it was perfectly fine, it just didn't quite live up to how great the other items were. On the upside, the prices are very reasonable for what you get, and the service was quick and efficient, meaning you won't have to wait long to get your sugar fix. Cons: Parking is highly limited and can be quite difficult to find around the shop. Thumbs up / Thumbs down: Thumbs up (Definitely would go back!)

I dont like cakes refrigerated cause I feel like it dries it out more... try it out for yourself. I give all the star cause last time I came i had a boudin roll. It wasn't called roll but it was good. Soft yeast roll time with filling boudin, cheese amd something else. Best thing ive had from there. If there was more filling it would be perfect. The roll to filling ratio was off. It was mostly bread. Staff is always great. Respectful amd nice whenever I visit. Parking is street parking. I've never been when its busy so always able to get a spot.
