    ordered this cake specifically because I was told multiple times that it was a "Pistachino" cake and that it contained pistachios. I made it very clear that having pistachios inside was important to me. However, when we cut the cake, there were absolutely no pistachios inside. The taste was also very disappointing. It did not have any special flavor. Honestly, it tasted like a very basic cocoa cake or plain cake -- but at a much higher price. I also strongly feel like this cake may have been purchased from Vons and displayed in their showcase as their own product for resale. Previously, their cakes had a unique and distinct flavor, but this time there was nothing special about it at all. Very disappointing experience. I would not recommend it, and I no longer trust the quality.

    This is becoming problematic! The desserts here can't be beat, even if it's something you've never had before, you know it's going to be absolutely incredible! Sonya is always super friendly and helpful, makes it easy to go back! Gives great advice for which sweet treat will make you the happiest. Any time I take these anywhere, they're very happily received. And their prices are incredibly reasonable!!!

    I'm so glad I stumbled upon this gem while driving by--what a find! I've been in multiple times now, and every experience has been nothing short of wonderful. Honestly, I'm surprised the reviews aren't better, because this place is a treasure. The baklava is out of this world--perfectly balanced, rich, and stays fresh for 7-10 days (not that it ever lasts that long in my house!). The two lovely ladies who are always there when I stop in on Sundays are absolute sweethearts. They're warm, welcoming, and always offer great suggestions when I'm feeling adventurous and want to try something new. The presentation of the sweets is so elegant--truly fit for royalty. Everything looks and tastes like it was made with great care and love. Royal Sweets lives up to its name, and I'll keep coming back again and again! Today I tried the banana tres leches--wow! An incredible, refreshing twist on the classic. So moist, airy, and packed with flavor.

    Passed by this bakery so many times and finally made it in tonight. And all I can say is wow. So many to choose from. A bit overwhelming. I couldn't decide what to choose until a lady came from the back kitchen with freshly baked baklava filled with cream cheese and said here please try and Holy Canoli! ! It was so DELICIOUS! I'm obsessed. They serve pastries, cakes, and ice cream. The only thing missing is a seating area. Would love to have enjoyed the freshly baked goods with a cup of coffee or tea.

    Great variety of food. Server was very nice. No seating in the restaurant. Kanafeh is a must.

    If you love Middle Eastern desserts, this place is a must! The kunefe was perfectly crispy on top with a beautiful layer of cheese, and the pistachio baklava was fresh and flavorful. It honestly made me feel like I was back home. I also tried their viral cakes, and my favorite was the lemon.

    Royal Sweets is one of my favorite dessert place here at ElCajon. Last Saturday we came here and we met a lady named Habiba ( I think that's her name if im not mistaken) She was very friendly and patient with us. We bought 8 different kinds of ice cream to try and all are so good and satisfying. The place was small but it was clean and all their displayed desserts are mouth watering to see.

    Asked for a custom cake with short notice and they delivered! It was exactly like the picture to the tee. Delicious!!!!! Very well priced and on time. Customer service also excellent. Extra thanks to Sophia for making my daughter's bday wish come true!

    Baklava!!! It's so nice to get treats here once in a while. I love pistachios so it's a plus for me to enjoy! I also like trying out other stuff I haven't tried / seen before. Great flavors and textures!!!! Try this place out!!!

    My wife was craving clam chowder in a sourdough bowl. I got all the ingredients for the chowder,…read morebut I needed the bowl. So I asked Mr.Google where I could find a high quality sourdough loaf. Of course I paged down past the paid ads and found Angela's Eccentric Kitchen. The website said they open at 7:00, so after filling up at Costco, I headed over. They're a couple of doors down from Mary's donuts. I walked in and was greeted immediately and asked what I'm looking for. I explained my story and was shown the perfect sourdough loaf for my needs. Now, I'm not personally a fan of sourdough, but when I hollowed out the bowl, I tried some and oh my gosh, it was delicious! I painted the bowl with olive oil cod placed it in a. 350° oven for about 15 minutes to toast. I painted the lid with EVOO and sprinkled with salt, granulated garlic, and dried chives. I mixed the innerds the same way and put all of them in the air fried at 400° for 6 minutes to toast. Once done, I let the bowl cool for a half hour and couldn't stop snacking on the croutons while making the chowder from scratch. Once the chowder was ready, I assembled the meal and gave it to my wife. She devoured it forthwith and said it was better than that served on Fisherman's wharf in San Francisco. Now, if I'd been thinking, I'd have gotten some of their tasty looking sweet treats for desert. But I'll be back. I encourage you to come by for your bread and sweet bakery needs. You won't be disappointed.

    I ordered dessert and two birthday cakes for my twin daughters and paid in full in advance, with a…read morereceipt confirming everything. The order was supposed to be ready for pickup at 2 PM on Sunday. I sent my mom to pick everything up and bring it to the party. When she arrived, they told her there were no cakes and no record of my order. Two cashiers started blaming each other--each one claiming they didn't take the order. My mom FaceTimed me while I was at the party with guests already arriving (this was around 4 PM, well past the pickup time). I spoke to the cashier who originally took my order--she remembered me--but then claimed they had misplaced the order and there were no cakes. They told us to come back in an hour so they could remake everything. I asked for at least the desserts since the party was already set up and we were only missing the dessert table and cake. Instead, they made my mom wait another 30 minutes just to get the desserts--and even then, the order was incorrect. I had ordered 10 cups of kishkish, but they only gave 8. When I called to ask, they initially insisted they gave 10. I had to FaceTime them to show proof because they were accusing me of lying. Then they changed their story and said they gave 8 larger cups instead. My husband returned an hour later to pick up the cakes while guests were waiting--very embarrassing. The cakes we finally received had different fillings than what I originally ordered, but at that point we had no choice. Throughout this entire experience, the staff was rude and dismissive. Not once did anyone apologize or take responsibility. They made it seem like the mistake was ours. I would strongly advise against ordering from here for any special occasion. This was extremely disappointing and stressful.

I finally decided to go up to her so that hopefully she'd acknowledge me that I've been waiting patiently I asked a question and then told her I was ready and knew what I wanted. I proceeded to walk to the item and she did not follow me. She continued to ring people up and have me stand there two more people after me and the third person which is now five total told her that he would be happy to wait because he knew I was ahead of him and acknowledged that what she was doing was rude and disrespectful. She shook her head no and said that it was OK and continue to ring him up at that point I walked out outraged and upset of how rude this lady was. I was a big fan of this place, but I will no longer ever come back here again as long as she's working there and I will never recommend anyone to come here either. If you see this lady just keep driving and go somewhere else you don't deserve to be disrespected when you're a paying customer.

That said, the cashier was very sweet, and the dessert display looked beautiful and tempting. While the coffee didn't win me over, I'd still come back to give their desserts a try since they looked much more appealing than the drink I ordered. Overall, a nice spot with friendly service, but next time I'll be skipping the flavored coffee and trying one of the desserts instead.
