This place, by far, has the most flavorful macarons in the 757. Even if I don’t know what flavors are in a variety box I can easily tell the difference because each flavor is so unique. I’ve tried macarons from many other local bakeries and I find that all the flavors taste very similar to one another while Look Up makes their flavors stand out while also consistently having great texture in both the filling and outer cookie. The employees here are always very kind and helpful. One time an employee let me know that he was out of the boxes for a 6-pack macaron purchase and he worked with me to find another option to still make the macarons look presentable for a birthday gift. Additionally, the other desserts are delicious. We are big fans of the Snow Cream desserts! We’re so glad that a local place has such great service and selection!
Service and atmosphere were nice, but ice cream was frost bitten, crunchy blue bell ice cream. Not what I was expecting at almost $5 a scoop. When I showed employee, she mentioned it happened to another flavor as well-the ice cream just gets too cold. Sorry, shouldn't be served to customers then...Maybe the more specialized treats here are better, but wouldn't recommend scooped ice cream.
Cute bakery shop. I got a slice of cheesecake and red velvet cake. The cheesecake was good. I like the crust...it tasted lighter than normal graham cracker crust (which I'm not a huge fan of). The red velvet cake was okay. It comes cold and I wish it was a little more moist. It was still tasty and I would order again. They also have macaroons, but I didn't get any this time. I definitely want to go back and try some more desserts.
Great place to grab that hot coffee with some delicious desserts! Blue Bell Ice Cream, specialty drinks, macaroons and cakes by the slice!!! Basically...anything for anyone! The sitting is also very inviting, comfy couches, eclectic tables...again...plenty of choices!
Today I tried the following; Pistachio Macarons, Nutella Macarons, Taro cake, and an iced Pistachio Latte (gluten free + coffee and tea free). Pistachio Macarons - a 10/10 with real pistachio filling rather than some cheap flavored cream. Nutella Macarons - 5/10 the filling was disappointing, as a Nutella lover, I can say with confidence that they did not use Nutella, it was more like chocolate (Hershey's) filling. The outside had the perfect crunch and was very yummy. Taro Cake - 8/10 the sponge cake resembled a slightly drier tres leches, it was so moist but not at all soggy. The creamy whipped topping had a coconut aftertaste, I loved this. Iced Pistachio Latte - 10/10 did not expect this to be so good, creamy and sweet but not overbearing, the pistachio flavor really shines in this drink, I used a soy milk base rather than cows milk and it was so delicious. Issues: I originally ordered a dozen (12) pistachio macarons, and they gave them to me out of the fridge rather than the display. I noticed immediately that they were hard as a rock and hard to bite into, however they refunded me 6 macarons. I understand that they have to refrigerate them to preserve them so I have no complaints about this little mishap. All in all I think this place deserves a 10/10! Excellent sweets, drinks, customer service, and decor. 🩷
