Wow wow wow!!! Mike's Pastry Shop is hands down one of the best hidden gems I've been to! I won't…read morelie, I was a bit unsure of what to expect because I did read the reviews beforehand but I went without expectations and I truly do not understand why this pastry shop is under a 4. Here's my play-by-play: Parking: the parking is ample here however it is a bit compact (NOT the bakery's fault!). I went in 3 times to ensure I tried a good amount before making my decision on top of trying their variety of pastries it was also to ensure how the service would be, honestly, every time I went in the atmosphere was very nonchalant. Since this is a local business they don't have that over-nice overwhelming energy you'd get at corporate stores. Which I am more than happy with, the three ladies that helped me with my selections also bake the pastries I believe so it was great knowing the lovely individuals who put passion into these pastries. Taste overall: When I tell you that everything I tried was absolutely delicious. The only note I have is that these are traditional pastries so they tend to have a slightly drier texture (bit the extremely gooey and super moist texture like in manufactured pastries) these are truly amazing paired with a coffee as they soak up coffee nicely. If you are a raspberry fan please GET ALL THE RASPBERRY pastries they have! The raspberry flavor is very natural and homemade . On top of that the cannolis...don't get me started, these are truly in my top 3 cannoli places. The shell, filling, and chocolate were perfectly balanced, no notes. Will be returning for the cannolis and raspberry pastries. Definitely a must have and I am very sad we do not have a Mike's Pastry Shop in the Central Valley.

Very disappointed with my recent experience. First and last order I'll ever make here. Ordered a…read morecake for Mother's Day. Picked up the cake on Friday which was taped in a box. This was the fresh whip cream with strawberries. When we opened the box two days later Sunday morning there was mold on the strawberries. When messaged the business, I was met with defensiveness as it were my fault the cake had mold. The bakery had a chance to make it right but instead, chose the position to state their cakes are made fresh and any mold would be the customers fault by not refrigerating the cake. Even went so far to say, it's not mold but looks like whip cream. That's completely inaccurate. If I were to make assumptions, this fresh cake was not made on the day I picked it up. Highly disappointed on my first purchase and I will never come back again.

DoorDash to the rescue! This was my 2nd time trying their fare…read more Combo plate 4.5outta5 Everything was seasoned perfectly. My only gripe is the basa not having been fried harder. I like my fish fried a lil hard/crispy but still flaky & moist on the inside. I was delighted to see the peas over rice! The dressing was a touch too moist, not bad at all just lacking a lil texture. The cornbread muffin was too sweet imho. To each their own tho. Frozen lemonade was perfect, especially after spiking;-) Turns out the owner is a friend of a friend. She's onto something and I hope she continues to grow & becomes a staple of the community. #GoTaste&See

Edited to add a response to the owner:…read more Girl I already said I'm not coming back lmao. Let's listen to understand, not reply. Talking bout I'm not welcome. I'm just matching your energy, because what made you call me Aj? Yeah exactly lol I'll go touch some grass if you go fix them mashed potatoes bookie! You're welcome, Tyler! Just as I said when you answered, NO WORRIES on the potatoes- (I was definitely not going to waste my gas coming back.) The mac and cheese didn't taste as though it came out of the oven. It was barely warm, but I digress. The wait time wasn't an issue and I didn't complain about any delays as you stated. Also didn't complain about the Shasta soda, just a lack of other brands available. My advice- don't add in free cornbread cupcakes. It'll save you money and time I love sweet, but that wasn't sweet cornbread. That was a cornbread cupcake lol. Thanks for the free soda. God bless you & your business endeavors! Went on a week day right when they opened at 12:00pm. I ordered fried lamb chops, garlic mashed potatoes + Mac and cheese. My meal came with a shasta soda can and a corn bread muffin, for $35.00 + tax. Waited about 20 minutes for my food. The young man at the counter was nice, although when I asked him what he'd recommend/what was popular- he was unable to tell me anything, so no help there. The inside is super cute! Loved the decor and vibe overall. Super girly. If you're looking to sit down and eat, there's no room. Be prepared to get your food to go! Anyways, let's break it down... Lamb chops: - 4/10. 4 pieces that were fried a minute or two too long & looked like the lamb had been starved for 40 days & 40 nights. Aside from that, the flavor was ok. Garlic mashed potatoes: - -50/10. It tasted exactly how it looked... dry & was definitely giving Idaho instant mashed potatoes. Albeit there were some potato skins in there, but overall the worst "garlic mashed potatoes" I've ever had. I couldn't get over how artificial it tasted. Mac & cheese: - 7.5/10. Your basic Mac & cheese. It definitely wasn't fresh though- it had either been from the day before or just sitting for too long. I'd expect it to be fresh & gooey, especially if you're just opening. Corn bread muffin: - 0/10. I get this is a bakery/food restaurant... but please my corn bread should not taste like no cupcake! Shasta soda can: - Nothing wrong with shasta, but please consider offering other brands of soda in the fridge. Even a water bottle would've sufficed. I wasn't going to upgrade to a lemonade for an extra fee! All in all I rate the entire experience a 2.5/5 stars. I don't think I'll be going back. The mashed potatoes, corn bread muffin & skimpy lamb chops pissed me off lol
