Reviews of Viva panettone are mixed, with some customers calling the maple panettone absolutely delicious and praising moelleux textures and flavors like lemon, pistachio, chocolate, and strawberry. Many praise the shop atmosphere, the variety of flavors, and the sense that the product can be very moist and enjoyable when well made. On the other hand, frequent complaints focus on dryness, especially with the grand format chocolate, the new stollen, and the panettone des rois, with some saying the product is extremely dry and not worth the price. A number of reviewers feel the French version is less moist than traditional Italian panettone, though others welcome a local maple infusion as a pleasant twist. Customer service is described as inconsistent, with reports of slow responses to feedback and coupons issued for errors that do not fully cover the purchase. Despite praise for certain flavors and the overall quality, recurring dryness and uneven quality lead to a cautious overall impression and some patrons preferring other brands or iterations.View restaurant profile

Feedback on Pâtisserie Boulangerie Del Sole is mixed: pizza and bread are described as okay, but cannoli are said to taste bad and be not fresh, with at least one reviewer calling them inedible and vowing not to buy them again, and noting that other customers asked which pastry they were buying. A cake to celebrate the life of a dying man was described as beautiful and meaningful, though the pickup experience suffered from a spelling error that was not confirmed in advance. Taken together, the reviews point to adequate quality for some items but clear concerns about cannoli quality and order verification that could affect the restaurant's reputation.View restaurant profile
Diners describe Les Délices d'Aden as a small, authentic spot where many dishes taste homemade. Standout dishes mentioned include Shakhshoukha, couscous, dolma, boureks, Kesra, bourek annabi, and mhajeb, with praise for flavor, tradition, and reasonable prices. The owner is described as friendly, and the overall experience is seen as warm and genuine, making the place feel like a go to place for Algerian fare.

Reviews for Les Delices Lafrenaie consistently praise beautiful, delicious pastries and cakes made with quality ingredients, with many calling it the best pastry shop in town and noting that custom cakes arrive exactly as imagined and taste great. The bakery is described as a go to for all cakes and sweets, with a wide range that includes birthday and wedding cakes, pastries, pizza and bread, and desserts that are both visually stunning and flavorful. The staff are repeatedly described as warm, friendly and professional, making the process smooth and stress free, though it can get busy and calling ahead or visiting early improves chances. Custom cake design is a strong point, allowing talk with cake makers to realize specific visions and impressive results such as themed or green cake creations; favorites include chocolate varieties and carrot cake. There are occasional hiccups, like a cake with eggshell fragments, but overall experiences are very positive, with many mentions of celebrations and book launches where desserts helped make the night memorable.View restaurant profile
