    Veggie kolache
    Molly L.

    I was informed that this place is a very popular bakery that serves Czech pastries. I think the pastries were pretty good but they weren't my favorite. We ordered the bacon, egg and jalapeño; the sausage, egg and jalepeno; the egg and veggie; the cinnamon; and the blueberry kolaches. The baked items were indeed fresh but not necessarily hot - they were more lukewarm. There is a lot more filling than there is bread, and this might also be unexpected since it does look like a bakery. The bread is a bit on the sweeter side while I found the egg pastries to be a little dry and needing more flavor. The sweet pastries were very good though. For 5 pastries, we spent about $20, so the price point is pretty good. However, the service was off. When I came in, the staff member acknowledged that she would be with me in a moment and that she was putting more baked items out. Then, at some point, she was finished and simply walked to the register. From my angle, which was right in front of the case, I could not see that she was at the register. Instead of acknowledging that she was there, someone who was waiting behind me asked if I was going to go. I think that there could have been some communication.

    I was pleasantly surprised to see a kolache shop just down the street from where I was staying in American Fork. The shop is small and there is a little bit of seating to stay, but it's mostly to go spot. They have a wide array of Sweet n Savory flavors. I got one of the Texans. It was jalapeño sausage and cheese. It was super tasty high-quality sausage, a lot of jalapeños to be ready for spicy and maybe a little less cheese then he would've hoped for, but I was more than happy. My only feedback is that the dough was slightly dry. Had a very nice flavor to it, and I know a high altitude baking can be tough and finicky sometimes. I would definitely come back. The dude ringing me up was beyond helpful beyond kind, and excluded. The most positive energy. I would come back 1000 times over just because of him honestly. Maybe I got a little unlucky. Employees like that are rare these days, especially in the service industry. Fair pricing quality baked goods.

    Really yummy. What a great place for something warm, delicious, and different than your everyday breakfast. Make sure to get there early because they sell out fast and don't always make more batches of certain flavors when it gets later in the day! I'll be back to try to monte cristo! The biscuits and gravy was the yummiest! Great service, too.

    The kolaches were so good! Definitely worth checking it out. Service was pleasant and quick. There's a few seats if you'd like to eat in house.

    I love kolaches. So yummy. Especially the bacon and egg ones, and the raspberry ones. They have quick and efficient service here as well. This place is a Provo staple for breakfast food!

    I've been wanting to try their breakfast for a while because I'd heard great things. I originally…read morewanted the croissant French toast, but they were out of the cream that goes in it. I asked if it made a difference, and she said it definitely does, so I decided to get the sweet retreat crepes instead. They were pretty good! My husband ordered the breakfast panini, and that was so good. It had really delicious flavors. I definitely want to come back so I can try the French toast because it looks amazing. Their bakery is also really good. I've ordered custom cakes from them before, and they always turn out beautiful.

    I was excited to try this place when I saw they had panini's on this cold snowy evening…read more I ordered the Turkey Pepper jack Panini: Turkey, pepper jack cheese, russets red peppers, chipotle aioli, sun-dried tomatoes mayo on sourdough. It was cold, and the bread mushy. I was so disappointed. The waffle fries were excellent tho, My husband ordered the Avenue Cheesesteak: Steak, mushrooms, onions, red peppers, and provolone on ciabatta bread. My husband also said his wasn't warm and I noticed it was a roll not ciabatta. He said the roll tho tasted fresh and was really good, his order came with Lay's chips. Bought some fresh bread and macaroons. Te macaroons were really tasty. The cashier was friendly. The restaurant is cute with several kinds of donuts, yummy tasty desserts, fresh bread, cinnamon rolls and cookies as well as some cute retail purchases like towels, hats, postcards etc, At 7pm I was quite surprised how many donuts were still left on the shelf in an open shelf system behind the counter. Another thing that was a huge turnoff was as the amount of gnats flying around. My guess is there is rotting food near the booths we were sitting in. The weather is cold, doors weren't wide open so something was attracting them. Restroom was clean and a small but decent sized parking lot.

If you're planning to dine there, make sure you don't have any pressing commitments afterward. On both of our visits, we spent an extraordinary amount of time simply waiting to be acknowledged. During our most recent visit, our group sat at a table right in the middle of the restaurant and could have driven all the way to the Draper location in the time it took for a server to notice we were there. We initially assumed the experience was a one-time issue, so we gave the American Fork location a second chance a few months later. Unfortunately, it was almost identical to the first visit. The pace of service was painfully S...L...O...W... The time from when we sat down until we got the special priviledge of actually ordering: 25 minutes! In contrast, the Draper location has consistently been a much better experience and appears to be managed far more efficiently. I'm glad they've expanded into American Fork, and the food certainly makes the restaurant worth visiting. I just hope they can improve their service processes so customers can enjoy a great meal without needing to set aside half their day to do it.

    We got our company anniversary cake here, a rush job ordered one week ahead after our original…read morevendor (booked two months out) backed out last minute. We were charged a $50 rush fee. We asked for coconut cake, vanilla buttercream, lime curd filling, heart-shaped, with an image on top and some written piping. We picked it up and the frosting looked great, but the top isn't what we asked for. We say something; the person working goes in the back and calls someone. She comes back and says they couldn't get the piping to look good, so they decided to print the whole top as an image instead, and if we had questions to email. We were both shocked they made that call without consulting us. We email, say we weren't happy with the look, and that we'd consider it resolved if they refunded the rush fee, which they did. Their reply said they hadn't realized the piping was a hard requirement, and that on short notice they'd made the call to print it with the logo instead, for ease and to stay close to the inspo image. Worth noting: we'd confirmed the piping twice, once in the initial order, and again the weekend before, to make sure it was doable. So why they decided it wasn't important is anyone's guess. I'm of the opinion that using a rush as an excuse only works if you don't charge for the rush. If they can't fulfill a rush order as specified, they shouldn't take it, or they should at least call, at which point I'd have given them several options (including just doing a plain cake) before printing the entire top. It looked extremely cheap. Then came time to actually eat it: embarrassingly, no one at the party finished their slice. Off texture, no coconut flavor, and the lime curd was overwhelming. I do want to highlight that the exterior frosting was really good, but the inside just wasn't. Combined with the unprofessional, cheap-looking top, this was an extremely embarrassing experience for me as the person who coordinated and presented it to the company. They did refund us that $50, so I didn't want to email again, even though we were unhappy with the entire experience. I couldn't in good conscience recommend a custom cake from Alisha's for a future event, though it seems we are an outlier and I know they do better work than this.
