Extraordinary Desserts

Now we know why there was such a long line! This place was absolutely amazing! Even though there was a line the cashier took her time to ask us questions about what we liked and made recommendations accordingly. Bring a sweet tooth and your wallet because this place isn't cheap but worth every penny!!

Phenomenal desserts. The quality of the cheesecake and ice cream was extraordinary (no pun intended). The service was good with the cashier being very helpful and informative on the endless choices of desserts.

My wife has had a craving to come here for ages so we did so today with our daughter.The glass display cabinet was full of extremely tempting looking cakes and more than a few dessert gourmets were pigging out on luscious chocolaty creations.We ordered a couple of cappuccinos and 3 different desserts.The large cake servings looked amazing and tasted good......though not as good as they looked but still good.I am lucky my wife is a fantastic cook so we probably won't be back in a hurry. It's a shame there were no cheese cakes on display.

Way to delicious. Love this place. I had been to the one downtown many years ago when on vacation with my son and his family,and wanted to take my cousin and her friend,they were just as pleased as I.

In a class of it's own - a must try if you haven't been and well worth the $10/slice. Every creation is decadently delicious and visually stunning, so that merely reading the menu causes salivation and choice paralysis. Think chocolate buttercream torte, built with multiple layers of textures & flavors, topped with pralines & rose petals, and a tart raspberry coulis. Simply exquisite.

This place is amazing, always. Anticipate a line and use it as an opportunity to check out the display case. Huge portions and literally the best coffee I've ever had.

Why would you ever get dessert at a restaurant when you can just come here after your meal? Everything you get will be waaay better. It's completely worth it to wait in the line of people wrapping around the front of the shop for however long it will take to place your order.

Delicious! But be warned, the desserts are heavy and rich. Not a bad thing if you've got a strong sweet tooth, but definitely share with a friend if not. These desserts are pricey.. it's a waste to leave some unfinished. My favorite was the warm banana pudding with white chocolate ice cream.

You want desserts? I recommend this place to anybody. The dessert options are numerous and the desserts themselves are luscious and rich. My girlfriend and I went here after dinner and wanted some dessert. She had the chocolate chip cookie and an individual cheesecake. I had a chocolate Bundt cakes and a blueberry coffee cake with a cheesecake middle plus a double maciatto. Everything was great and very delicious.

Wonderful desert selection and exceptional service. I was disappointed to find that they do not serve wine and champagne at this location (like the downtown location) but the lovely deserts and coffee definitely make up for that. The strawberry shortcake was exceptional. The caramel popcorn left me wanting more, but overall very happy with my experience.

First impression: there's a party I'm my mouth and everyone is taking off their pants. The desserts here really are extraordinary. Everything I've had has been very rich and flavorful. The portions are big enough to share, but you're going to want the whole piece for yourself.

You can never go wrong by heading to Extraordinary Desserts - both this location, which is just dessert, tea, and coffee, or their other location on Columbia, which serves a small selection of delicious main course food. The desserts are indeed extraordinary - exquisite, delicious, magnificent creations of textures and rich flavors, often topped with flowers. Unforgettable. Take your date, take your mate, take your out-of-town guests for a treat. You may have to wait in line and have a bit of trouble parking. Not cheap, either, but worth it.
