The Excellent Cheesecake

These are just absolutely the best cheesecakes you can buy locally. Unfortunately you can no longer buy the minis individually but they come in 2 larger sizes. Every penny worth every bite

My husband was gifted a mini cheesecake yesterday from a colleague, and he graciously split it with me. This is the best cheesecake I've ever eaten! It is absolutely amazing. So delicious. I would eat it everyday if I could.

This is what happens when you can't sleep and scroll thru the Yelp activity feed at 2am....(screeching to a halt!...scroll back) What, cheesecake?!! I love a yummy cheesecake and admit (insert bragging!) make a good one but lately, I'd rather just eat one! The Excellent Cheesecake is a New York Style with some heft...truly amazing and EXCELLENT indeed! Decadent, ultra-rich and creamy with a vanilla sour cream topping BUT that graham cracker crust with sugar and brown butter (I'm guessing!) is MONEY!! My friends and were blown away with this cheesecake!Ordering is super easy and almost too easy. * select classic or seasonal flavor * select a size (3 options) * Select a date/time slot for delivery * Enter email or cell * Pay by credit card Confirmation and receipt sent....then it's waiting time. To be honest, I was a little worried.. "hmmm hope this site is legit"...."I'm gonna get "cheesecake catfished" and end up with some Sara Lee frozen cheesecake!". Fortunately, all worked out and delivered during the time slot selected...wonderful!Akila, the owner is super friendly, talented and i'm definitely a fan of her cheesecakes. No storefront and by delivery (or arrange for pick-up from Peet's) from Castro Valley with an occasional pop-up at the Castro Valley Marketplace. Go...get...some...definitely calorie worthy! Note: 7" serves 8-10 decadent slices. All cheesecakes are "naked" and perfect as is. I dressed it with berries since I had them on hand! :)

I've ordered several cheesecakes from Akilah. Each one was absolutely delicious. The crust is just the right amount of sweet and balances out the cheesecake perfectly. And she is the nicest person. Such talent!

Best cheesecake in the Bay Area. First bit melts in your mouth. Glad I found her. No other Cheesecake compares

The best cheesecake in town. I love Akilah's cheesecake. They are worth every penny. The crust is delicious and the cheesecake itself is balanced with the perfect amount of sweet. I have tried the smallest and the largest sized cheesecake she offers and the quality is consistent! You will not regret getting a cheesecake from here. Her service is excellent.

this is the first time I order from the Excellent Cheesecake , they response by text and they are replying fast. Pick up arrangement is easy through text. we got the original cheesecake , it taste very good. The cheese is creamy the graham cracker taste so good ! my daughter loves it.

The cheesecake lives up to its name! I was browsing for birthday desserts and happily inquired through texting the number. I was able to get a quick response and turnaround time! It was for a classic 7". She was super responsive and was kind enough to have one delivered (for free) the following day. Being a cheesecake lover, I appreciate the dense and minimal style. The flavors spoke for themselves. It's rich and creamy (and did not last a day in my home). The packaging was also a cute touch. I will be ordering again.

Just wanted to edit my last sentence. You can't go wrong with The Excellent Cheesecake. Give it a try and you won't be disappointed.

I've been delighted with Akilah's cheesecakes twice now. OMG, they are to die for! So decadent, not overly sweet, and just the right creaminess.I'm looking forward to trying the pumpkin cheesecake this month!Hats off to this young lady for her brave endeavor & efforts. It's greatly appreciated.
