Let me just say that this place was amazing at a certain time. This place has slowly and painfully lost its touch. Still it is a great pastry place compared to all other mama papa pastry shops. I would deff go here all the time, anytime. They make great cakes and they don’t cut corners. The prices are very reasonable for the cake and amount of cake you get. Over all a great place to get your cake and pastry.

I thought it was a cafe. So, I went in to grab a coffee, chill, and catch up on things on my smart phone. But sadly, the Internet didn’t work. And when I asked for a password, they were not very helpful.

I love this place Ive been going there since I was a little kid I remember the little train that would ride alongside the edge of the ceiling... You can really feel the Armenian hospitality every time you come in everyone so welcome and very helpful! You can find almost everything here from any Armenian pastry to the most amazing Armenian food Hot and ready just a way to my grandma used to make it!

Love this place. Very clean. Nice staff. Great food. I generally go for the lamajoo (probably not spelled correctly) and boncheek (also probably not spelled correctly) and lunch combos (spelled correctly). Great stuff and dont forget the Armenian coffee!!! Woo hoo!!!!!

Exactly as if you were in a middle eastern version of what a French pastry shop would be like -- going there just to see this is worth it, and the pastries and breads are good. The quarternut cake with fruit for $30 is the star.

Review №10

Prices went up and quality of the food went down. Before I used to get a plate for less than $10 now its $15. Pastries are okay-ish. Like if your in rush and in need for a quick stop its good but to take for a intimate gathering no. Besides its not worth the attitude youll recieve when you order.

I tried their cream puffs, eclairs and napoleon cake and all of them had this light tasty cream that made me wanting more of it. Napoleon was simply amazing crunchy tasty dough and divine custard cream. Their donuts and perashki were pretty tasty as well. Ive just finished them and really want some more. nice

Review №15

Decent european pastry,pastry and lunch spot. In my opinion its one of those places at the pastries look better than they taste, but the few cream items I had out of the case several Napoleons were just acceptable. The Armenian stale bread over look very good in fresh and the selections for lunch look tasty. Also Middle Eastern Armenian selections mostly. It has a few tables inside to sit in a few tables outside. The weather in Burbank Glendale is almost always perfect so it doesnt matter where you are. The interior of the place is gleaming White marble and the pastry cases will Dazzle you with appearance. Its worth another try to sample other stuff out of the pastry case maybe more exciting luck the second time.

I had not been here since the fire. The place looks great. The only thing is that I think almost all non bakery items are too salty. Except the harisa, which is the absolute BEST.

Hi there, I had come to your pastry today for buying a birthday cake. Unfortunately, there were some fly on your cakes. So I changed my mind and went another pastry. Just to notify you

The pastries are delicious. But the customer service is not the best... different culture here. Theres a small parking lot in the back with a security guard which is a plus. Dont bother with the coffee though.

Review №32

Poor service in the dining room. Ladies that serve food there are very rude and all the time disgruntled about everything and everyone. Food is always over salted. On 11/16/2020 Ive bought rice with lentil. Rice was overcooked and felt like a glue rather than rice. Besides that rice was filled with a smelly substance instead of oil. I tried to return the product but they didnt want to give me a refund. After loud arguments and me trying to call the police they decided to give me a refund for a spoiled product.

This bakery only caters to Armenians. I met some friends here for some coffee and pastries. I was next in line because I wanted to order more to take home. The manager knowing I was next in line called the man behind me to help him first. Even when I told her I am next in line, she reluctantly rung me up, I shouldve just left but my friends are already settled in. I am taking my business elsewhere next time.

Review №46

I would walk 20 minutes here 3-4 times a week in the morning because I loved their fresh made meat piroshki. I would usually get that and an additional dessert pastry for later.However, I went there last week and they had raised their prices on their piroshki by 50%! The main reason I would go all the way there was because it was quality product at a great price. I was really surprised they would hike their price that much out of nowhere. Paradise was part of my weekly routine but I likely wont be going there nearly as often now.Their pastries are really tasty but the increase in price does take away from the value.

Their Lavash bread is the best, hands down. Actually all of their breads are great. As to pastries they are good as well. If you are looking to sit down and eat, it has a clean area both indoors and outside. They also offer hot food.

Awesome cakes! Been getting all my cakes here for 10 years and they never dissapoint. Great customer service. Friendly staff. Newly renovated ... Wow! Their deli section looks delicious. I would have loved to sit down and eat but I had to rush. Please do not pay attention to the negative review. I have no idea why anyone would want to trash talk this gem of a place.

I used to get food from here for almost 3 years, but for last month the prices went up and the quality dropped down. Would like the management to do some changes to make the place better, not to make it worse than before.

This Armenian bakery/deli has the best people working. No matter if you come near closing time, they always offer kindness and a smile. Their pastries are excellent! What beautiful cakes! And they even have a separate bistro style dining area for eating or to take out main meal dishes as well. Great place, cant say enough good things about Paradise. Its worth a visit and Im certain after your visit, you will return.

Great pastries, friendly staff, clean place, cozy seating area for coffee, inside and outside, and reasonable prices! Fresh Ponchik and pastries every morning. This is real Ponchik deep fried ones are piroshki.No mattee whats in it, could be meat, cream potatoe...prices are reasonable not too expensive. They have tasty pastries with cheese, feta cheese, meat, apples and everything in between in.. it melts in your mouth. Everything is freshly made everyday sitting in the counter by the cash register desk.

Review №70

After Covid-19 theyve jacked up the prices on everything, specifically Deli foods. $12 per pound + tax for a SMALL bowl of Ikra (mash of eggplants and onions). Deli food is delicious but not by any means worth paying an arm and leg for such small amounts. The so-called fresh patisseries are often old and Un-fresh, and lack flavour besides sugar. Patisserie pieces are pricey. The only products we recommend here are Yerevan Ponchiks, and Yerevan Potato and Meat piroshkis. After years of being patrons, we take most our business to SFV neighborhoods bakeries.

They dont have fresh bread every day. the employees are rude. They have no idea what the customer service is. I entered to store and check the bread and they were not fresh. I went out of store and call them to ask if the breads are fresh. They lied to me. If you dont believe me, go to register and ask them if the breads are fresh( they will yell at you)

Heres what you need to do. You can go there for lots of amazing things they have there, but you should really go there and buy everything they have that is mixed with Nutella because omg its sooooo tasty. Theyve really got something special and its definitely worth a try. Also, they have plenty of parking in the back.

Wouldnt recommend! I was very happy with my first order but after that all of my orders were wrong and overpriced. Even though I ordered the same stuff every time I went there they charged me different prices and they came in all different sizes! Also their manager is very irresponsible about calling customers back to take care of an issue. I really wish they had better customer service!
