Half Baked Bistro — Restaurant in Mount Vernon

I was super excited to try this place based on their online following and reviews. Sad to discover it fell very far from expectations. First, very confusing ordering. The lady taking our order was very sweet but ended up messing our order up somehow. We ordered (or attempted to order) Caribbean Jerk Salad and 3 orders of Biscuits and Gravy - one with 3 Biscuits and the other two with 2 Biscuits, a chocolate cupcake and a chocolate brownie. When we came back 15 minutes later to retrieve our order, we only received 1 order of biscuits and gravy, the Salad and the baked goods. Unfortunately they do not provide receipts - so I don't even know what was paid for or not. But the order was a little over $30 - so I assumed it was correctly entered and paid for. I went back in to retrieve the additional biscuits and gravy and explained I did not have a receipt so I can't see if it was paid for or not. The cashier I assume looked at the original order, somehow, and then told me I had to pay $12.50 for the biscuits & gravy plus an additional biscuit. While I was confused about the totals and inquired what was paid for originally - never really received a good clarification and just went ahead and paid bc the kids and hubby were in the car hungry and waiting.

Despite the ordering issues, I was still optimistic. It's pricey but I'm sure it will be delicious. Well again, the taste and quality and quantity of the food fell short. Way...

This place is delightful! The first sensation when opening the door is the sweet sugary smells that hit your nostrils. You are guaranteed to see some whimsical decor and great big smiles. Nav and his staff are excellent! I always leave smiling and I love bringing friends and hearing the awe I had when I first visited.

There's always a variety of desserts and coffee and if there's some left you will also find several tasty lunch items. I have yet to come across something I didn't like here. There is a good selection of gluten-free items as well!

You must visit this charming shop ASAP the next time you have a sugar craving! You won't be...

Warning to new customers - unethical advertising. Based the reviews, we have been trying to get a pierogi here each time we are in Mount Vernon for the last year. They are always “sold out” and we have uncovered the sad reason. Part of their success has been built on the facade “you need to get the pierogis before they sell out” - however, they “sell out” because they don’t make pierogis often. (Despite the big sign.) So if they are not sold out, they are not fresh. I do not recommend consuming any food from a place that knowingly...
