What I love about Temecula are all the little eateries sprinkled throughout the city. My husband and I went to this lovely spot for a gelato date. The owner was so nice and let us sample all the flavors and taught us about chimney cakes. We ordered the chimney cone with the elder flower and cheese gelato. Delicious! The gelato was creamy and flavorful without being too sweet. The chimney cone was crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Perfection. In addition to the delicious gelato and chimney cake, there are panini offerings, Italian coffee, and smoothies, which also look yummy. Will definitely come back here with our boys. I want to try the paninis and coffee! read more

Most Delicious Gelato and a delightful owner! New favorite place to get a sweet treat..

I am from Indiana and have always wanted to try an authentic Affogato. It was the best thing I have ever tasted in my life! Now I will have to go back to Indiana and forever miss this wonderful drink. I don't know about anything else on the menu, but this Italian espresso puts every other espresso I have ever had to shame. Thank you. read more

Great taste and good service, a great family friendly place 20 smiles out of 20 my gelato is melting because yelps insisted on more words than I can describe perfection please yelp allow me to enjoy the gelato read more

Not sure where to begin: the excellent cleanliness of the dinning room, the amazing flavors of the gelato AND chimney cake, the perfect serving sizes or the top notch customer service...everything about this establishment needs a rating of SIX stars! The flavors were, dare I say, unique and delicious! My family and I all chose different flavors but ended up sharing and exchanging just so that we can "have it all"! They rotate their freshly made flavors regularly so it's encouraged to visit frequently to try them all. The chimney cake was made fresh right in front of us and was a perfect pairing (to share) with our gelato. The customer service that we experienced as was of a high quality that I assumed was only because it was our first time but listening to the conversations between other customers (frequent customers) and the gentleman between the bar, it sounds like what we experienced was the norm. We will definitely be coming back! And as a parent...I really appreciate the cleanliness of the bathroom and the coloring books in the dining room :) read more

Unique Pastry Factory - Delicious gelato - Gelato Near Me - Temecula, California

Was craving a churro kind of ice cream and it led me here. It's a little hidden spot which isn't bad but you have to personally know this spot to be coming here. Anyways I go inside it's empty there's no one ahead but a lady sitting in the chair next to the window. Turns out she was the cashier on duty (not sure why she's on her phone doing nothing). Anyways i asked to try a couple flavors for me and my sisters and she was kind of nice about it except made a face after I asked for maybe a third sample? I mean that's why there's samples. Anyways I got two cones and as im paying she says thanks for coming blah blah but she goes and sits back down when im not even done paying. If anything I could have wanted my receipt printed and she wouldn't have known because she just went to go sit back down on her phone. I don't think this whole experience for a first time customer was the greatest. She could've been more attentive, communicative, etc. I feel like the reviews let me down in finding a place with a nice chimney cone because this place SUCKED. Never coming here again read more

Incredible is the only word to describe this little place. It's clean, it's fresh, the place is very classy and well thought out. The man behind the counter was genuine and a fantastic host for my wife and I and our kids. My first of many many visits. He had a great selection of Gelato. He said everything is homemade and ingredients from Europe. The proof is in the pudding... or in this case Gelato. Visit once and you'll be a customer for many years to come I assure you. Thank you sir for the fantastic visit and desert. Just what the doctor ordered. read more

My children wanted to take me out for Gelato because I had never had it before so we went here. I must tell ya they are the best people ever. The history is amazing. It was so nice that they offer so many tasting. They have soooo many flavors that they rotate them daily. I have never ever tasted anything like it and now I'm hooked!!! I sampled a few, cucumber, banana, pineapple, chai... I'm not kidding when I say they tasted as if your eating the fruit or vegetables fresh!!!! I'm still in awe that something could taste like this. Oh my gosh it was so refreshing. I'm still stuck with my basic chocolate and coffee flavor for my final choice today. My daughter in law loves Gelato and said to me it's the best she has personally ever had. They also have sandwiches and this will be the next place I will go for lunch. I can't wait. Do I recommend this place? Heck ya!!!! ENJOY!!! read more

I understand why this place had 5 stars! We tried so many of the gelato flavors and they were all complex and delicious. Highly recommend the Popeye and elderflower. The pastry cones are also delicious. They taste very similarly to certain kinds of Mexican pan dulce. 10/10 recommend! read more

Dropped by here on a Friday evening about an hour before closing time. It's right across the Montessori. You might have to go all the way around JeffGot a small chocolate gelato (kids size) the German cone (plain) and a smoke turkey sandwich. Chocolate gelato was rich in flavor. read more

Place was very clean and abiding by covid regulations ie patrons wearing masks, social distancing signs and hand sanitizers throughout. Most amazing gelato EVER! Including gelato we've eaten all over Italy and around the world. Unmatchable. Worth every penny! Worth every calorie! Perfect serving size. Owner is amazingly hospitable. Fortunately we got to sample several flavors. Must-try! Would absolutely go out of my way to get a scoop here ANY DAY ANY TIME. I had the chocolate and the honey fig gelato. My husband, the cucumber and lavender. We shared the coconut chimney cake. Amazing!!!!! All of it. 5 stars - I thoroughly enjoyed it and will go out of my way to eat here regularly. 4 stars - I would go out of my way to eat here again. 3 stars - I would go again if I'm in the neighborhood, but I won't go out of my way for it. 2 stars - I would only eat here again if someone else really wanted to and was paying for it. 1 star - I would not eat here again, even if it's free. read more

So amazed with the gelato & the service of this dessert place! Truly a cute little gem with big, bright and tasty flavors. My first time coming here & it was truly one of the best services I've ever experienced in Temecula. The owner of Unique Pastry Factory was very knowledgeable and so kind. He offered to make us try more than one flavor and shared how everyday there's always different flavors that he tries to experiment with. That in itself is the epitome of dedication & passion - which really shows in the flavors of the gelato. They were made so well & truly authentic. We ordered the special which is the chimney cake that comes with two scoops of gelato and JUST WOW is all I could say. Definitely a treat and an experience! Ofcourse I will be coming back! read more

Unique Pastry Factory - Chimney Cake with Gelato - Gelato Near Me - Temecula, California

Was looking for a dessert place after eating in Old Town...and found this GEM of a place! Wow! Owner went out of his way to welcome us and to make sure we tasted EVERY SINGLE FLAVOR :) Each one was better than the last but I settled on the watermelon. You could practically taste the watermelon as it was sliced on a summer day. So delicious! The Blackberry Cabernet was pretty awesome too! The owner is Hungarian but said he learned how to make gelato from his grandfather, who is a Master Gelato maker! You can tell from the quality of the gelato. I also just had to have an Italian Illy coffee and the owner kindly served it in an Illy cup (wish I could buy one of those!). The coffee was simply sublime. This is a little gem in the Mantra Indian Restaurant shopping center and we will definitely be back! read more

This is such a cute little gelato place in Temecula that I didn't even know existed. The gelato here was good, but to me it didn't really taste much different from other gelato places I've been to. It wasn't bad by any means, but it wasn't the best gelato I've ever had either. I got a scoop of chocolate and a scoop of the mango. The chocolate was pretty average and the mango was refreshing. I did love all of the different flavors they had though. Service was awesome. The employee working the day I went was really friendly and gave us tons of samples when he found out it was our first time. I appreciated that a lot. The store also had plenty of hand sanitizer, and everyone was wearing masks, which is very important to me in this COVID world. All things considered, this is a good dessert place. If you're in the mood for some gelato, I would recommend stopping by. read more

Me and my friends were there to try the gelato and it did not disappoint! The flavors were soooo good! I believe we were talking with the owner, and he's such a sweet and funny guy. He made nice conversation with us and told how he does his work, also cracked a joke here and there. Gave us a generous amount of samples and each gelato was so unique. This is a man who truly cares for his work and his customers, I hope nothing but the best in his job! read more

Upon entry, the owner did not acknowledge me being there. Bought a smoothie, and asked if I could sample a gelato flavor, and he said rudely that only if I was buying one that I could have a sample. The owner definitely lacks customer service skills. The smoothie was good, however due to his poor attitude, I will not be coming back. The owner lives in fantasy land and does not acknowledge reality. Your customer service skills are the worst I have ever seen. My wife was outside because we have a dog, and your little shop does not allow dogs. That was a good effort to try and judge me buddy, but you failed. Your tone and demeanor had some racist undertones, and a level of disrespect during my visit. You said you do not need customers like me. Is it because of the color of my skin ? I had no attitude, when I was in your shop. I was just shocked that you acted like I was trying to just get free gelato. I was going to sample your gelato so I could come back later in the evening to buy some. However, you sound like you do not like customers or money. Have a nice day read more

This owner is ridiculous. It's so sad when a business owner decides to sabotage his own well being for some reason. Have you ever been to a place that has decent food but the worst customer service? That's this place. Not just bad customer services, but unbelievably bad. So bad that it doesn't matter how good the product is, it ruins the whole experience. I don't understand how this place has so many good reviews. Consider yourself warned: STAY AWAY. read more

I want to like this place but after trying several flavors, it's just way too sweet for gelato. The sweetness over powers each bite and gelato should be refreshingly close to the natural flavor of real fruit. Hopefully the owners will ease up on the added sugar. Owners response is condescending and rude, rather than having good customer service and listening to constructive feedback. Another star reduced. read more

Stopped by this past weekend for a quick treat and some relief from the heat. What a delight! The service was GREAT and the gelato was just right! Update: I noticed a review below giving just 1 star for this great business - I wanted to point out that that reviewer isn't even from this area. All of their reviews are from businesses in the not-so-greater LA area. I doubt they drove to Temecula just to get some gelato. Can't trust that shady review. And if they haven't visited the business, then how could you rely on their opinion? read more

What a blessing and gift to find this place while meandering back from Temecula wine country one Sunday afternoon. We were greeted by Csaba Kiss the owner from Hungary. His grandfather taught him how to make gelato. Oh man...oh woman...oh boy...oh girl...oh whatever you identify as...his gelato is "Out of this world!" The strawberry was better than strawberries! He had this "Orange-basil" that was unreal. Better than any amuse bouche I have had in Joel Robuchon's restaurants. The gelato was out of this world. The Chimney cake took me straight to a European cafe with the first bite. We simply had the cinnamon but damn...we devoured it. I hooked up on the Hungarian smoked sausage panini sandwich. Damn! Good stuff. I can't wait to go back. There's a reason this guy as over 300 5-STAR Reviews! read more

Unique Pastry Factory - Must STOP! - Gelato Near Me - Temecula, California

Nice little family-run place to enjoy European ambience, not to mention unique Hungarian pastries and gelato. Csaba is a very kind and patient host. He catered to a large group of visitors accompanying us today all by himself. The store also serves fine Italian coffee. It doesn't have a large indoor sitting area, more like a cafe with some sitting outdoors. Csaba gladly found the time to talk with me and give me tips and pointers about Hungarian cuisine and European culture in general. Please check it out! We were glad we stopped here on our way back to San Diego from Lake Arrowhead. read more

Terrible service. Me and my wife went here because I saw it had good reviews and I liked the idea of eating an pastry icecream cone. We were trying to figure out what to order and we asked for a few samples of some flavors as someone who hasn't tried an icecream flavor would, so that we can get something we like. The store owner started to act irrationally and got angry at us and rushed our order when we were the only ones in line at that moment. He was about to make us an order without even asking what we wanted until I told him the type of cone I wanted which they messed up in the end. Then we asked him if he did a military discount to which he rudely responded, "Not today". My guess is that he was triggered that we were asking for samples which they gave tiny ones so it's not like we were doing it to get free ice cream, we were genuinely curious about their options and wanted to get something nice. Be nicer and more attentive to your customers Mr. Owner. read more

I was so happy when we came here and saw the design. Its not a popular shopping center in Temecula so I honestly wasn't expecting much but it turned out that its pretty cute. Theres a small patio outside with some high bar table chairs and unbrellas for shade. Perfect area to let the kids get loud. We sat inside. Theres only a few tables inside but its a small location in general. Everything was clean and laid out well. The flavor selection is diverse. I wanted to try several but didn't want to seem like a heifer. I ended up with lemon mascarpone, banana, and a whiskey flavor that I can't remember the exact name of. All were delicious and tasted exactly like there ingredients. My kids especially liked the the lemon mascarpone. I didnt completely understand the special they had going on so we ended up with way more gelato than we could finish. The owner was very kind. She didnt rush us to pay right away and was good at helping everyone at once with little wait time. They also serve coffee beverages which I can imagine will be very beneficial to those that work in the area. Smart decision. I tried a sparkling apple drink that was very tastey. The chimney cake we tried was oreo flavor. It was hot, fresh, and airy. We both enjoyed it. The only thing negative I can say is prices were a bit high but expected for the authenticity of the establishment. read more
