Great food and service too. We asked to be seated outside. Our server recognized that the salad…read moredidn't serve with Parmesan on the side so she helped swap it out right away. The sourdough was indeed very good, soft on the inside, crunchy out. Butter was whipped and light. We thought the pizza was going to be small but it was enough to feed the kids and me. The salad was actually really good, unique sprouts and flavors but not too overwhelming. The shaved parm was a very good balance. The bakery had good options. We tried the orange spice cinnamon roll, which was just OK in my opinion. The cream part was a bit overwhelming but we have a pretty light palate. Overall, highly recommend this place.

I ordered a Tres Leches cake for a gender reveal party, and oh my God, it was absolutely AMAZING. Everyone kept asking me where I got the cake from. It tasted incredible and looked stunning as well. Hands down, totally worth trying--I'll definitely be ordering again! Also, when I went to pick up the cake, I noticed they have a super cute café next to the bakery. The place had such a great vibe--everyone seemed to be enjoying their coffee and fresh salads, and it just felt like a really warm, welcoming space.

Disappointing experience at the bakery. First time there. The girl behind the counter didn't seem…read moreexcited at all, she seemed bothered and impatient to even serve customers, it really left a bad taste in my mouth, I should've not spent a penny there and walked out. I never understand how service companies never trained their employees to be friendly and just human decency. Went to the coffee shop. They don't even have half-and-half. They've got carnation little creamers that's not half-and-half. Also, as somebody else has mentioned, the setup is very confusing. You have two different rooms that are connected to each other, but you have to pay for the baked goods on one side of the coffee on the other side, those supposedly they're the same company, very disjointed. As you can tell, I won't be returning. I'm a small business owner and I wish them all the best but they've got to fix their service. There are 101 coffee shops in Central Illinois.

My roommate had ordered us a tres leches cake with extra fruit on top. And when we picked it up it…read moreonly had six strawberries on top and covered in chocolate. I know a language barrier because my roommate speaks very fluent Spanish it's his first language. We would have really enjoyed it being this is not our first cake from them. Just very disappointed it didn't have any peaches, black berries, or anything like that on top like ordered. I have included the picture they have on their Google ad that we had asked for, and a picture of what we got. But I still want everyone to understand the food was amazing.

I've seen Ortiz Bakery at the Riverfront Farmers market many times, but never stopped. I was on the…read morehunt for authentic tres leches cake for my mom's birthday and this bakery seemed like it would be the best choice. I was a little confused when first arriving opening the door to a number of bakers racks in the middle of the floor - it felt like you were entering the 'back door'. There was also a slightly unsettling 'alarm' that rang as the door was opened, not your typical 'ding dong' of a shop door. I picked up 5 pieces of tres leches cake - $4 a piece... a definite value! The gentleman behind the counter diligently and carefully packed each dripping moist piece of cake into its own to go box. Each piece of cake is topped with a glazed strawberry half - the cake was absolutely delightful. Moist, creamy, utterly delicious! I will definitely be back and highly recommend!

She makes is fresh and has won awards for her cakes. My family members went back for more! She works this cake business on the side of another full-time job. While she does have help, it does take a couple of tries to get in touch with her. However, she was true at keeping every one of her promises! Obviously, the business is a true passion of hers. She does cakes for ALL occasions. The cake looked beautiful! However, if you're looking for a very extravagant design with fondant and other special designs, then she might not be for you. Personally, the design of the cake was not as important for us as the deliciousness and price!
