Located in one of Vaughan's busiest plazas full of food options, this Korean bingsu café stands out…read moreas one of the best dessert spots in the area especially if you're looking for something beyond bubble tea. As part of a growing chain with several locations across the city, this particular branch impressed us with both its quality desserts and genuinely friendly service. We came as a group of seven, and the staff went out of their way to accommodate us, rearranging tables so we could sit together comfortably. It's those little gestures that make a difference, especially when visiting with a larger group. Our top picks here were the Black Sesame Bingsu and the Tiramisu Bingsu. The Black Sesame Bingsu is a perfect option if you prefer desserts that are less sweet and more refined in flavour. The finely shaved ice is generously dusted with black sesame powder and topped with mochi, red bean, almond flakes, and a scoop of black sesame ice cream. The nutty, earthy notes make this one a standout. The Tiramisu Bingsu is just as delightful, with a mini slice of tiramisu perched on top and then chocolate powder, cheese, and a touch of espresso to bring out that classic tiramisu flavour. Rich and satisfying without being too heavy. The bingsu comes in three sizes: cup, small, and large. We went with the large size, which is perfect for sharing and they conveniently provide sharing bowls to make it easy. We also tried the Butter Bung Eo Ppang (a Korean fish-shaped pastry), opting for the salted butter & red bean filling. It was freshly made, warm, and a comforting and delicious side treat that we'd highly recommend trying if you want something a little different. Whether you're stopping by after dinner or looking for a place to chill with friends, this spot hits the mark.

I called them today, and basically, the owner made me one serving of strawberry mousse (not the cake), just for me (!) and it was incredible. Not too sweet, just perfect. Apparently, there are ~30 flavours to choose for the mousse. They can make them in small party style/catering sizes or larger ones. I also ended up getting the tiramisu, which really impressed me as well. This level of customer service is literally unheard of nowadays! I still can't believe it. I would definitely be back. It is very cozy and cute to dine in as well.

The Pistachio filling was pretty good but its shell was a lot more airy. It was more like a puff pastry instead of fried pastry dough. It was a bit of a miss only because of this, but otherwise I'm excited to try other flavours! They make them to order I believe because once I ordered, one of the girls behind the counter went to the back and came back out in 2 minutes with my cannolis in a sealed box.

It is not overly sweet and although expensive, it's worth it. I love that the cannoli shell is not the typical hard shell.

There is plenty of free parking as well.

Lots of seats available, benches and booths to choose from. The booths can seat up to about 4 people.

I got the so much to say with the hazelnuts, my family all got different kinds. I really enjoyed the desserts, pretty similar to demetres or d spot if you're looking for something like that. I would come here again if I was in the area for sure.

In a quiet corner of Woodbridge, La Strada Bakery defies easy categorization -- and therein lies…read moreits singular charm. What presents itself modestly as a neighbourhood Italian bakery reveals, upon closer acquaintance, something altogether more intriguing: a transatlantic pastry dialogue between the Old World and South America, shaped by the hands of a Uruguayan chef who brings both traditions to bear with quiet confidence. The cannoli are, without equivocation, the crown jewel of this establishment. Piped to order, the filling achieves a textural ideal -- sweetly yielding, impeccably creamy, and notably free of the aggressive lemon notes that so often overwhelm lesser versions. The shell delivers a satisfying, delicate crunch, its restraint allowing the ricotta cream to assert itself as the undisputed protagonist. These are cannoli that would draw admiration well beyond the borders of Woodbridge. One ought not to overlook the sfogliatelle, rendered here in golden, shattering layers, nor the cherry-filled donuts -- generously proportioned, freshly made, and possessed of a quality that lingers in memory long after the visit. The facturas, custard-filled and dusted with care, speak fluently to the South American soul of the kitchen, while the empanadas offer a savoury counterpoint of notable finesse. The space itself is intimate to the point of cosiness -- a handful of seats, a tall central table, and a glass case brimming with the day's offerings. The pace is unhurried, the atmosphere warmly domestic. Tony, the proprietor, greets each guest with a hospitality that feels entirely genuine -- the kind of welcome that transforms a transaction into something closer to a visit with an old friend. If one were to offer a gentle note, it might be that the sheer breadth of the offering -- Italian classics alongside Uruguayan specialties and homemade ravioli -- occasionally tests the boundaries of the compact space. Yet this abundance, curated with evident passion, is ultimately more virtue than flaw. La Strada is a bakery for those who understand that the finest pleasures are often found where one least expects them.

The bread came with balsamic vinegar and spicy oil - which was taken away from us as we were eating the main course. I found that strange since we loved the spicy oil and had to pour some on our plates before the waitress took it away. The grilled veggies were nice but I didn't realized it was supposed to be cold and the portion size is steep for $16. The linguini shrimp pasta could have a better presentation. Nothing to wow about. The pizza came with burned crust which definitely was a turn off for me. The toppings were decent. However, I had better pizza somewhere else. It appears a popular spot for locals as it was packed by the time we left after 7 pm. As for me, I wouldn't be going back.

The cakes are moist and consistent from location to location (been to Burlington and Thornhill as well). I like that you can customize how much icing you want when ordering online. They do change up a seasonal flavour occasionally but you can count on regulars as well. I find their sizes of the smaller "individual" servings quite strange. The bundtinis (mini cupcakes) are a little too tiny. While the bundlets (individual cupcakes) are too big. The prices are on the expensive side in my opinion. Makes you feel like you're paying for the name instead of a good cupcake. Although these mostly sound like criticisms, I will on occasion buy a cake from here for events where I want to bring a cake that is going to be a step up from your run of the mill grocery store cakes, and not likely to disappoint.
