We tried saffron milk cake dessert. It was just an amazing dessert I've ever had. They have vanilla favor as well. Must try both of them. The ambiance is just perfect if you want to grab small nibbles or just the dessert.

L’ETO offers a cozy yet upscale cafe experience with a wide selection of beautifully presented cakes, pastries, and Mediterranean-inspired dishes. The ambiance is warm, with elegant decor and a relaxed vibe. Their desserts, especially the honey cake and pistachio roulade, are standout treats, both visually appealing and delicious. While the food quality is excellent, the prices are on the higher side, and service can sometimes be slow during busy hours. However, it’s a great spot for a leisurely coffee and dessert experience in the heart of Soho.

We were walking around Soho and decided to visit this plas as it was quiet and had such a great display with all their cakes. I have to say that was a great choice and the cakes are very tasty. We had pistachio and saffron cake which were amazing. Our server were Russ , very polite and kind and very knowledgeable about all those cakes also very nice and friendly service. I’d recommend this place and I hope I will bring my mum there one day. Thank you.

I had classic carrot cake and it was really scrumptious. It had walnuts inside and sultanas and proper cream cheese. It’s quite pricey at 9 but it’s a generous portion so worth it. Lovely surroundings and comfortable seating. Service was good and relaxed. Not on menu but friend wanted hot chocolate and they can offer that. Definitely hit the sweet spot. Will come again next time for sure.

This place offers an incredible selection of cakes, each one more tempting than the next! I decided to try the pistachio cake, and it did not disappoint—absolutely delicious. I paired it with the saffron coffee, which was a unique and delightful experience. I highly recommend stopping by for a treat here. The only downside for me was that the toilets are mixed, which might not be ideal for everyone, but overall, it's a fantastic spot for dessert lovers!

This was a discovery. I’ve walked past a few times admiring the cakes in the window. Today we came in and had apple pie/strawberry cheesecake and their ‘winter’ tea... it was so good. This tea was so fruity and other teas for each season too as well as normal teas. Lots of savoury options available too. Staff friendly and helpful. Good value for money and nice for a treat!
