Our server was great answered all our questions and even had some fun with the Pixie Glitter, it's in everything....so fun! The food was very good and the cake was absolutely delicious.

I so appreciate what Cake Bake does to make little girls feel special on their birthday! My five-year-old will never forget her birthday glitter wish!

Atmosphere is exquisite and unique, and is key to their brand experience. Service was very good. We were seated on time at a corner table with 2 diners facing a wall. Food was good. Turkey and gruyere sandwich was nice, but overpriced by at least 20%. Salmon entree at $38 very good but ridiculously overpriced. Cocktails (Cosmos) were also good but, again, ridiculously overpriced at $19. Ordered Millionaire, Lemon Blueberry and White Cake w chocolate icing. All were very good and serving size was generoud but overpriced. You can get better cake at places like Stacco House or Hot Toddys (both in Carmel) for 1/2 as much or less. Overall, it was a good dining experience with great atmosphere and good service, but food was not up to the level you should expect for such extremely high prices

Took my daughter to celebrate her birthday. They had a sign for her and put a candle in her piece of cake! Evening was simply perfect. Staff was cordial, friendly. Food excellent…and naturally the cake was divine!

Beautiful environment. A little expensive in my humble opinion. Do not regret the experience. Great place to celebrate with a mom or girlfriends.
