    Cupcake
    Marie M.

    Soooo disappointed in how my single cupcake was transported! It was placed in a nice box only to drive home and found it on its side. Ruined gift! I suggest they package better to protect the artwork cause what a heartbreak. Guess I have to eat it, but found someone else to package a nice gift for my friend! Their pastries are good and nice bread!

    We shared each order so the photo is kind of messy

    I was looking for an authentic Mexican food when we visited Carlsbad. This place was suggested by one of the staff in the Mission Del Rey. The servings were huge but the tastes lack the mex food authenticity. We ordered Chicken tacos combo and the Friday special which is a the Beef Milanese sandwich combo( i think). The Friday Special taste like it was fried in old oil. I usually ask the servers for their favorite but this time I ordered what's advertised on their special menu. The service is great and place is clean and there are lots of nice paintings on the wall.

    Great food service ambience all the checks. Came from vista, 15 min drive but worth it. The flavors are real.

    This is my fourth time here, I make this a must stop between L.A. to San Diego to enjoy a very good bowl of menudo. I also enjoy having cafe de olla with the sweet bread from their bakery. The staff if very attentive to make sure we enjoy our meal. You can also visit San Luis Rey Mission right next door. On Saturday mornings you also get live music on occasions.

    Came by to order a birthday cake. I'll review that experience once we get the cake. Ordering was easy and they worked with what I was requesting. I needed a small birthday cake with a paw patrol image. I don't pick it up for a few days but will update review. We did get some cookies and pastries. So far everything has tasted great. Didn't try the restaurant.

    Red tamales

    Easy going atmosphere. Great local Mexican restaurant !! The tamales are yummy!! Red or green, they are good ! It is a family owned restaurant. The tamales are ready to be ordered for the holidays!!!

    My receipt

    Check your receipts *****Pastries and coffee were really good. Food was ok we didn't finish our plates. However when I received the check I thought it was a bit high for 2 adult meals and one kids meal it was $64. I questioned the cashier and she looked at the receipt but she said it was right. When I went to the car and I added in the calculator and it did not add up. I went back inside and realized they tried adding an extra meal like the one I got but in a very sneaky way. Instead of it being an added item on the receipt it was on the left which seemed like it was the fries that I was paying more for. Will not be coming back !!!!

    Huevos Rancheros was delicious!

    Great service and wonderful food! The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxing. Will be returning to this fine establishment! Currently visiting California but this will be marked as my favorite spot!

    Haven't been home for years and this was so exciting to see a new bakery. Everything looked great…read more My friend bought a strawberry cake from here that was very good. I purchased a Toffee latte that tasted good. My only complaint was that it was a whole two knuckles short for $6.95. I would think it would be at least to the top of brim. Also, be very careful. It was so hot that it burnt my tongue. There were two people working and it took about 10 minutes for me to get my coffee. I tried the White chocolate chip cookies but they just were not that flavorful, yet they were huge in size. Just bland. My daughter asked a local, is there anything really good that we should try. His response was, HMMMM some things are good some and others not so much. She decided not to get anything. The place was very busy on Saturday at 4 PM. Since it was kind of new at the time, when I come back in Nov this year, I will go back out and try again. The restaurant was clean and tidy.

For my wedding I wanted to set up a dessert table with a variety of mini cupcakes and bite size desserts. I needed to serve enough desserts for 150 people without sacrificing good quality. I reached out to Crimson cakes for a tasting and I was able to get a box of samples before making my decision. In the end I selected 3 mini cupcakes (strawberry pistachio, red velvet, and black and white), fruit tarts, and chocolate mousse baskets. The desserts not only tasted amazing but they looked incredible and were decorated to match my wedding colors. I also got a cutting cake which was black berry lime flavored. My husband and I love this cake and we still can't stop thinking about it. We will have to go back to get this cake for another special occasion. The Crimson Cake did an amazing job providing great tasting desserts on time for the wedding. I would highly recommend this bakery for any events.

I gave them my theme and examples of what I'd like to include in the design and they were in point! And the high quality ingredients were absolutely amazing! The taste of the cakes and petit desserts were phenomenal and freshly made. My guests couldn't stop raving about how delicious the desserts were. And what I loved was it wasn't excessively sweet but exactly the right combinations. They also have last minute already made cakes and desserts but also decorated a cake for me in one day!!! That's unheard of! For wedding and more elaborate cakes they need several weeks notice but their cakes are worth the wait!!! They truly are works of art that taste unbelievable!!! My favorite, if I have to pick one, is the chocolate cake, chocolate ganache filling with a white buttercream. The icing is so light and airy almost like a whipping cream icing. My guest were fighting over the last piece! Definitely will get a larger cake next time! This woman-owned business is no joke! These artist and master pastry chefs do it all! You might say their confections are perfection!!!
