"If the owner of this establishment reads my review, I have a message for them: "You need to watch the behavior of your staff and ensure the quality of the products you sell to customers." My husband and I have visited this bakery multiple times because we live just one minute away. Despite the rude attitude of the Armenian women working there, we tried to ignore it and just focus on getting what we wanted. However, today was different. I asked my husband to bring me a piece of berry tart, specifically telling him to make sure the berries were fresh because I suspected they sometimes give old slices instead of fresh ones. He brought back five pieces and I was looking forward to enjoying them with fresh berries. Unfortunately, what I received was far from fresh. The cream was not fresh at all, and to top it off, there was mold on the blackberries and rotten raspberries used as decoration. We were extremely disappointed and angry. When we returned to the bakery, the woman who sold us the rotten pieces simply rolled her eyes when she saw us parking the car to return them. She didn't even apologize but acted as if she was doing us a favor by exchanging the pieces for fresh ones. I usually don't write reviews, whether good or bad, but this time I felt compelled to warn others about the terrible attitude and quality of products at this bakery. It's a shame I didn't take a photo of the mold, but the most shocking part was seeing her put the rotten piece back on the shelf to sell again."

"My wife and I were the first to arrive for dinner. Greeted cordially and given a choice of seating. Wait staff was very attentive, initially. We ordered an appetizer, Chaas Spatzli (Cheese Spatzles), which was quite bland. Website menu says $12, but we were charged $16. The entrees followed appropriately. I tried the Berner Platte (pork and sausages) and my wife had the Rouladen (braised beef). Website says $24 and $22, respectively. We were charged $28 each. There were components of each of our plates that were very good, and some that simply lacked flavor. With the Berner Platte, the sauerkraut was very mild and did not provide any flavor punch to any of the pork components of the dish. The mustards served with the dish, however, were excellent. I mixed and matched, creating different flavor profiles to try and get the most out of everything on the plate. The pork chop was one of the best I have ever had. Potatoes were overcooked, almost mush. All in all, a 50/50 on the Berner Platte. The Rouladen featured a braised, thinly sliced beef with a sweet and sour jus of sorts. The waiter brought us a sample of the sauce to taste first. It was very good on the side, but did not pair as well with the beef. The beef carried a flavor that stood on its own, without need for a sauce. It was very good on its own, and took a downturn with the sauce. More of the bland spatzli with it. Veggies were fine. Service was great until the entrees came out. Despite wait staff walking all around us while we were eating, not once did anyone ask how the meal was. On the whole, it was different, but not what I was expecting for the money. Beautiful interior."
