Delicious for lunch or desserts - but I'm mostly recommending Decapo's for the WEDDING services!

Best Cake Ever 9/21/2010

I ordered my birthday cake from Decapos and it was phanomenal. Strawberry cream cheese cake with white chocolate icing and chocolate covered strawberrys. The best cake ever!!! more

Low quality ingredients 6/19/2010

I came here for daughter's birthday cake, mainly because of all the high ratings. I ordered the Strawberry Chocolate Delight cake. It was good but everyone in my family agreed that the frosting used for the outside was cheap and not real chocolate. I found this irritating, because the cake was $40.00, and not very big. At this price, they should use quality ingredients. more

Neighborhood bakery and lunch spot fresh with friendliness 3/9/2010

Places like Decapo's help me understand why Heights living is priced at such a premium. This neighborhood bakery and lunch joint does its best to make everyone feel welcome and go home full. Pros: PIE, patrons, sidewalk seating Cons: coffee drinks may take a good while when busy more

Poor service, smallest $4 cappucino in town 10/26/2009

We had high hopes for this place as we had just moved to the heights and DaCapos is a few blocks from our new place. When we received our $4 cappucinos in mugs, they were 20% beverage and 80% foam. Was this a joke? - less than an inch of cappucino in each mug - and these were not wide mugs. I approached the counter and kindly explained that the cappucinos seemed a little small, and could we please get more. The clerk began to argue with me - yes argue - and explain how she made the cappucino and how the size was justified. I asked again for more cappucino, neglecting to mention that across the street they are twice the size and cheaper. She finally returned to the table with slightly heavier drinks, but the lack of customer focus and the argumentative clerk had already made my muffin sour. I'll not be returning. Pros: Dessert and quiche pretty good Cons: Overpriced, argumentative service, shorted on purchase more

Excellent Tres Leches!!! 10/13/2009

In looking for a bakery, I came across Dacapo's online and read the wonderful reviews so decided to give it a try. We got the Tres Leches, and it was very yummy!!! This is one of the best tres leches I've ever had.....my brother who is VERY picky about sweets even raved about it and he's demanding we get him one on his next birthday!! WIll be going back here again for future cakes....can't wait to try some of the other flavors!! Pros: great tres leches, reasonable price for what you're getting Cons: parking more

Killer cakes, great salads, friendly staff 12/26/2007

This is Houston's best kept secret. Try it out for yourself. Pros: Great cakes, rockin' salads, great lunch joint Cons: parking can be tight more

Cozy Cafe in the Heights 12/13/2007

This is the best cafe in the Heights so far! Everything on their menu that I've tried is exceptional. The staff there is very friendly. It's a very small cafe, but I highly recommend that you try it. Their Italian Cream Cake is the best! Please try it!! Pros: Everything more

AMAZING....AMAZING....AMAZING!!!!! 6/28/2007

We ordered this for our monthly birthday cake and it was the most amazing cake ever. It was moist and fresh. We had the banana split cake with strawberries, chocolate drizzle, and sugared pecans. I will never order another cake from anywhere else. They are THE BEST!!! Pros: AMAZING CAKES Cons: NOTHING more

S-L-O-W but Good 6/18/2006
