    The service, food, ambience, and overall experience at Cake Bake Carmel were fabulous. It was a little loud due to high traffic, but that just means that many people have good taste. Make sure to make a reservation to avoid long wait times and you'll be golden!

    We had great service and the food was very good! Alittle overpriced but I think the cake is worth it. The carrot cake was the best I’ve ever had!

    Cake Bake is always a wonderful special experience. Service is outstanding, food is delicious- cake and lunch. I had the chicken velvet soup and it was DIVINE & of course you must get cake! I did have trouble hearing but it didn’t bother me any, and my husbands voice is low. I just know it’s not an inexpensive endeavor (which it shouldn’t be). How fortunate we are to have in my town. Highly recommend!

    Beautiful restaurant with great staff and amazing food. The food is very reasonably priced but the desserts are a little pricey, although admittedly worth it!

    The Cake Bake never disappoints! Our Valentine’s plans were nearly ruined when our reservation at another local restaurant was cancelled at the last minute. We luckily got the last opening at Cake Bake! The Fontina Cheese Dip, Salmon and Crab Cakes were delicious. (Beware though: the crab cake is deceivingly filling!) We ended the meal with their Apple Crumble warm with silky vanilla ice cream and Coconut Crème Pie. Heaven!
