Red Velvet Cupcakes are really good

by foodielover at Citysearch

On a whim, decided to try their baked goods. The red velvet cupcake (I guess it would be seasonal because of Valentine's Day) was delicious, esp, the frosting! Didn't care for the cheedar chive scone. It was too sweet for a savory scone and lacked the cheesy flavor I prefer. I can make a better one using the SF Chronicle recipe. Very popular place with a line even at the end of the day. Didn't notice any ill-spirited service.

• Pros: Red Velvet cupcakes, variety of baked goods
• Cons: Parking, cheedar scones should be avoided

Customer Service At Its Worst

by mbroughton at Citysearch

I ordered a cake from this bakery because the cakes looked really tasty. I also ordered it because it's directly across the street from Bliss Bar. I was hosting a party at Bliss Bar and thought since I was dropping $65 on a quarter sheet of cake that the bakery could walk it across the street to Bliss Bar. I asked twice and was told that this was impossible. I couldn't understand as to why a walk across the street would be too much to ask. Apparently it was too much to ask for a tad bit of customer service. In this day and time consumers do not have to put up with bad service. This is truly customer service at its worst. I would never ever recommend this bakery to a soul.

I would have rated this place with zero stars; however the computer would not let me post my comments unless I rated at least 1 star.

• Pros: I would have rated this place with zero stars; however the computer would not let me post my comments unless I rated at least 1 star.
• Cons: Terrible service overrides the quality of the cakes.

Good Cake

Their cake is also gooooood! I bought Chocolate Moose Cake for birthday cake for my husband. The cake is very sophistcated. Taste is not too sweet, but more "chocolatish". Highly recommended!

• Pros: Cake, Bread
