What People Are Saying

"This is one of the well-known patisseries in the Mountain View area, and I stopped by this morning to grab a quick breakfast. The place was already bustling — full of people eating, chatting, and enjoying the cozy, welcoming space. It looked like a great spot to sit and spend some time, but I was in a hurry, so I ordered takeout instead. They have an overwhelming selection of baked goods — truly paradise if you love pastries. There’s also a solid coffee menu, though I skipped coffee this time. I picked up a barbecue pork croissant, and it was honestly one of the best things I’ve eaten recently. The pastry was perfectly flaky and crunchy, and the filling was a finely prepared, mildly spiced barbecue pork — not too spicy, but incredibly flavorful and well-balanced. I also tried a pastry called Harmony, made with high-quality chocolate. The sweetness was very restrained, allowing the chocolate flavor to really shine, with a pleasant crunchy layer inside. It felt like a proper indulgence. While I was waiting for my order, one of the bakers even offered me a macaron to taste , a raspberry or strawberry flavor , and it was excellent as well. They have so many other baked items that I’ll definitely be back, either for a proper brunch or to take home more pastries. Highly recommended if you’re in the area and love good bakeries."

"I'm a huge fan of Alexander's Steakhouse. It's hands down the best restaurant I've ever been to and eaten at. I've been going to Alexander's Patisserie for over a decade. Their desserts are very high-end and good. I haven't eaten any desserts from Alexander's Patisserie in years. After eating at Alexander's Steakhouse in Cupertino on Sunday, November 15, 2025, my wife and I decided to stop by Alexander's Patisserie and pick up some desserts. We ordered the bread pudding, pumpkin pie tart, apple pie tart and pecan pie tart. We were excited to try all 4 especially the 3 that were more geared towards the holidays. I'm sad to say that all of the desserts fell short! The best out of the 4 desserts we ordered was the bread pudding which was shocking to us! The bread pudding was basic and simple. The flavor was just okay. The pumpkin pie wasn't good at all and lacked the smooth velvety pumpkin flavor. The apple pie lacked the overall apple flavor and was the worst tasting of all 4 desserts. The pecan pie didn't taste like pecan pie at all. It flavor profile was way off. The texture or the 3 holiday focused desserts were way off as well. We were really disappointed because we remember the desserts at Alexander's Patisserie being top notch and tasting so good but this time around, this was not the case. I ended up paying close to $50 for all 4 desserts which wasn't worth it in my opinion. I have no issues paying a lot of money for high quality food but these desserts were neither high quality nor did they taste good in my opinion. The biggest issue was the fact that they nailed the presentation of the desserts but all of the desserts were underwhelming and didn't taste good enough for the price and for the calories. I don't recommend going to Alexander's Patisserie and I honestly don't see myself going back or giving the establishment a second chance. 😒"

"Lovely spot. Lots of delicious, unique pastries to choose from. We got breakfasts sandwiches that were also delicious, I had the salmon avocado toast and my husband had the ham and cheese croissant. He didnt love his coffee. I did like my matcha and the apple croissant. Friendly staff and nice seating area."

"Lovely place to get pastries and crossaints on castro street. Tried their pistachio and matcha crossaints. Now i like the taste of matcha so i loved the matcha crossaint, but i can understand its not for everyone. They fill the crossaint with matcha cream to order, so the crossaint remains flaky. Also loved their holiday themed pastries. Will definitely come back for more"

★★★★★

"Upscale cafe with artful pastries. I recommend eating at the cafe; a takeaway sandwich will be cold and disappointing but a warm sandwich, drink, and desert feel perfect. Tarts and small cakes are $12 and up."
