This is my GO TO dessert spot. No kidding, they have the best of the best here at their bakery! If you haven't already you MUST stop by and try one of their delicious desserts and cakes.... Plus they have licorice, swedish candies, coffee, etc. All kinds of things!

I was blown away by this little hole in the wall bakery shop. The service was extremely friendly and informative, the owner offering samples of various items while explaining their significance in Swedish Culture. They make everything fresh with no preservatives and the flavor only benefits as a result, everything I tasted was magnificent, and what I purchased was even more fantastic. The cheesecake was flavorful but light, not overpowering and simple, with just some chocolate on the edge and a couple fresh raspberries to compliment. One of the diamonds in the rough, I think was the passionfruit beignet. While checking out at the register I heard the lady mention them to another couple in the bakery saying they had them for only 75 cents. My ears instantly perked up at the flavor combination So I just could not pass it up, and I very thankfully purchased one. I have no idea why, but that flavor combination was something special.

The restaurant offers a fantastic variety of mouthwatering Finnish bakery items and sweets. Every bite was flavorful and satisfying to enjoy.

Whenever I am in town, I always make sure to visit this restaurant. Unfortunately, during my last visit, there were limited options available, no coffee was being served, and the service was quite slow. I observed a negative interaction between the clerk and a previous customer, which was disappointing. It made me think that perhaps more training could be beneficial to improve confidence and efficiency. The customers behind me seemed to be getting impatient as well. It would be ideal for the restaurant to work on finding solutions to ensure customers keep coming back for delicious pastries and excellent service.
