   The location of our table was the perfect setting for a party of 6. Ashley was our server and absolutely amazing. She was very informative, answered all our questions and made our experience extra special.

   Arrived on a Wednesday about 6pm for a reservation for my wife and me. Was seated in patio area and quickly realized that it was very noisy with many kids, some having birthday parties. Went to the hostess to see if we could be seated in the main area (less kids—more quiet). Was told it would be a two hour wait. Asked why when there was no one else waiting and I was told there were other reservations. Apparently our OpenTable reservation doesn’t count. Tolerated the noisy dinner with my wife. Food was not as good as our previous visits—lemon piccata chicken with pasta was dry as a bone. Had to ask for sauce. They must have forgotten to put that on. Nice server but the kitchen was not very fast on what seemed to be casual evening. Manager did take the chicken off the bill which was nice, but didn’t make up for the atmosphere around our dinner. We’ve enjoyed multiple visits at Cake Bake in the past but this time it has given us pause about returning. General feeling is that things have gone downhill.

   What a beautiful restaurant. It is a special dining experience. However, it was so loud in there and the tables are so crammed together is was difficult to talk to those at our own table. The servers have trouble getting between all the tables. Our server was fantastic. She was a delight Food was good, not great. It is expensive! We love the concept but probably won't be back just due to the price and our experience with the noise level.

    Great experience except for I had messaged back and forth with the restaurant on Open Table about leaving a note or something that had to do with fairies, And include the names of the two little girls that were with us aand they said “We would be happy to accommodate that. We will make a note to ensure there is something special for Nora and Olivia. Warmly, The Cake Bake Shop” and nothing was done. I was a little disappointed but the girls knew no different and absolutely loved their time there.
