   Very loud, crowded and expensive for mediocre food but I sort of expected it to be that way. My 5 year old granddaughter loved it, so it was worth the $200 I spent for four people for her birthday.

   It was our first time visiting and I’d heard nothing but high praise. It was definitely gorgeous with the chandeliers and Christmas decorations. But, in my opinion, I was disappointed with some of my food choices. I’ll start with the cake- I ordered the birthday cake and the icing was listed as buttercream. However, it was more of a buttery whipped icing than the heavier buttercream I was expecting. Needless to say, my $17 slice was disappointing. As for my food, the all-arugula side salad with my quiche was A LOT of arugula. I think a mixed green salad would’ve been much more palatable. Maybe the lemon dressing wasn’t sweet enough to complement the peppery taste of the arugula? Finally, my $8 regular, no-syrup latte was in a tiny cup that I finished in about 4 sips. Sooooo, I guess as a newbie, I’ll know what NOT to order next time. Because I do believe there will be a next time. Our waitress was fantastic! Plus, my daughter DID enjoy her grilled cheese, the truffle fries were some of the best I’ve ever had, and the Millionaire Cake my daughter ordered was really tasty.

   Hello Ella, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are disappointed that several aspects of your visit did not meet your standards. To alleviate some confusion about the buttercream, we are a European-style bakery and use a Swiss meringue buttercream, which has a 6% higher butterfat content than standard American buttercream, which may account for the texture. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your overall experience with us. We look forward to welcoming you back to improve upon your most recent visit. Warmly, The Cake Bake Shop

   This is definitely a special night out place. I've been there for holiday and birthday celebrations, and each time, it's fabulous. The service and ambiance are uniquely amazing. It's not a place to go for value, but it's definitely a worthy spot for celebrations. Food is solid but pricey - your surroundings makeup for any negatives due to price.
