Went for pastizzis specifically, unfortunately they only had frozen ones made in house so I have to heat them up and try them. I will update the review when I do

Delicious gluten free options. Loved the almond custard / pastry. The entire top row of both cookie and Pasternak containers are gluten free. Definitely check it out!

This place was amazing. The royal chocolate cake slice had layers of different textures and was superb. Kareem's personality made our night. We walked out with a smile and feeling loved. "He just wants to feed you good things" vibe is what I got.

Went to Leli’s to get a cake for my fiance’s 30th and both of the people I talked to were so incredibly kind. Had to ask for a bunch of specific stuff to make the cake perfect and they were patient and wanted to do whatever they could to make the perfect cake. Truly kind and amazing people. I tried an Italian rainbow cookie on the way out and after tasting it I have no doubts the cake is going to be amazing. Great place and I really can’t speak highly enough to their customer service and friendliness.

I went in to inquire about a birthday cake for my mom I showed a picture and they delivered exactly what I wanted from the details, colors and the flavors of the filling were amazing. I’m extremely satisfied with their service, I will definitely continue to come back and order all of my events cakes from this place. And oh prices are excellent!

This place has been changed . I like it very much. The atmosphere is clean and friendly. I had a spanish , waooo home made delicious big portion ! Paris tea and teramissou conbination was recommended..excellent both flavors ! Will come again.

I loved Gelato here! I didn’t expect it to be this good. I was a bit indecisive about which flavor to choose, but the owner was so kind and patient- he let me sample a few until I found the perfect one. I ended up choosing the coffee and pistachio flavor, and I highly recommend it!

I went to the store to get a cake for my friends birthday, And they had this beautiful cake ready. Vanilla cake with vanilla frosting. First of all the decoration was beautiful with the color pallet, gold details and beautiful rose gold pearls in it. It was elegant and beautiful. The flavor itself of the cake WAS AMAZING!!!! The frosting is one of the best in all the bakeries near me. I will order all cakes from them. I strongly recommend.
