- Terrible #7288
Last couple of recent visits revealed a nearly empty gelato case (what we came for) with nothing labeled, so we had to ask about about every bin that had something in it. Also, not only was the person behind the counter unfriendly, she seemed angry. What about? Whatever it was, it shouldn't be imposed on the customer! Really doesn't make you want to go back.
Too bad, because I was so happy to have this new addition to S.Orange and now it seems like it may be struggling and I can see why. We tried a few times hoping it would get better, and I hope it does.

Horrible!! I love the food here but unfortunately tonight, that's not enough. I ordered online and when it never came I called to double check everything. Apparently the order never came through, no big deal... I'm hungry but stuff happens, I get it. So the manager tells me she'll call seamless and figure everything out.... Another hour goes by so I call again wondering where my food is. I'm informed that she is just now getting ahold of seamless. Are you kidding me?!?! So now it's been over 2 hours since I first ordered with not even a word of apology.

- Poor #7290
My friend and I went there few times so far, but the first was a couple of days after the opening. The owner was there and greeting the customers but didn't even bother to come to us because we are young. He was going just to "older" people and not considering us. They messed up our order twice and the final one was just the previous drink steamed to warm it up. We went for some ice cream too and the workers made it clear they were "not in the mood" to get their hands cold to serve us. Just had a very bad experience so far. The design and decoration of the place are very nice though.

South Orange does not have many options, so it is nice to have this bakery with new selections. The food/drinks are pretty good, however, I have to wait 20-25 minutes for simple sandwiches which are ALWAYS brought out incorrectly or missing something I ordered. Additionally, I see many many orders that have to be corrected for other customers.

Can the kitchen be more accountable please??
