Rush Patisserie

Took everyone’s advice and made sure to call before I dropped by. It’s a cute shop but it also blends into it’s surroundings so you might miss it at first. When I stopped by (around 2 PM on a Sunday) all of the parking spots were taken so I parked on a street in the neighborhood behind.
I got the mini carrot cake ($ 8) and it was delightfull, it had a unusual spice flavor to it that was unlike any other carrot cake I’ve ever had, but I keep dipping my sppon for another bite.
This place is tasty, but kinda pricey.

I have been wanting to try the pastries here and I’m so glad we came. They were awesome!
I met the owner and thought it might help to let everyone know the listed hours on Unilocal are wrong. Rush is open Fri, Sat, and Sunday.
We tried the Lemon tart with shaved white chocolate and the mixed berry tart. I can’t wait to go back!

I needed 40 napoleans made on less than 24 hour notice for a funeral reception… they were absolutely perfect, fresh and delicious!!! Samantha made 20 glazed and 20 dusted… everyone was asking where I got them. I will definitely go back to Rush Patisserie!!!

Ordered a cake las minute and Samantha was so helpful! The cake looked beautiful! (Grand marnier) And tasted Sooooo good! it was moist not too sweet just prefect!
Thank you Rush patisserie!!!

I went in there today and spoke with the owner and took some of her beautiful pastries home. Chef Samantha, thank you for making a soulful macaron. Everything was exceptional.

I have attempted to visit this place several times without success. They tend to have odd hours. The owner, Samantha, is the chef, runs the deliveries and the bakery thus the hours posted on their website are not concrete. I would advise that you call before coming to ensure she will there when you need a sweet fix.
Anyway, it was well worth the wait! The bakery is small, quaint and easy to miss next to the much larger Spiral Bakery. Samantha is very kind and personable. She took the time to explain the different deserts and figure out which one we’d like best. We ended up with 4 desserts (pictures added here). I am sorry to say that I don’t remember their names but they were all divine, each with their own unique taste and blend of flavors! By far, the best dessert place I’ve been to in Dallas.

I was going to take a peek at Spiral Bakery when I discovered this place. First of all, it was beautifully adorable. I never imagined I would ever find a place like this by chance. And the desserts… they looked like the desserts that I loved staring in the dessert cases in Italy (if I had been to Paris/​France, I would probably be able to say the same?). Samantha was so informative when describing all the desserts for me, and I love how she used patisserie language! It shows her passion for her desserts and to spread that patisserie culture. I got the caramel walnut, almond and pecan tart, this delightful vanilla cake, and two pistachio macaroons. (Yes even thought she carefully explained the names of everything… I forgot the proper names already). The macaroons were yummy. I am not the biggest pan of sweet nut tarts (but my friend who I got it for is and she was soooo in love, she basically ate it all in one sitting), but the vanilla cake was perfectly fluffly, which is my favorite component of all cakes! I can’t wait to slowly try everything, I’m actually glad that it isn’t open all the time… too much temptation and it makes being able to go very special. I think the Unilocal hours are incorrect? From my understanding this location is only open Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Also, I had just tried Oak Lawn Coffee for the first time — only to find out they have Rush Patisserie desserts, woop!

The owner/​baker made the most wonderful Epiphany cake for us, it was buttery and delicious. The little «feve» inside was a bit too large but that didn’t stop any of us from enjoying the delicious «galette». These are usually eaten on January 6^th but she was kind enough to accommodate us and make it for new year’s eve. I only give it 4 stars because of the facilities, they are not very inviting.
Pour les francais qui cherchent une bonne Galette des Rois, celles de Rush Patisserie sont bien bonne!

Patisseries de très bonne qualité. J’ai pris un mille-​feuille, mon mari un gâteau chocolat-​meringue. Samantha Rush nous a offert un sablé très bon, au beurre.
Pour Noël, nous avons acheté une bûche à la ganache au chocolat

Great little shop. Wife and I actually found this location by accident after brunch at Jonathan’s Oak Cliff. I actually saw the macaroons and was like hmmm… We need to check it out. The wife got a napoleon and I got a lemon tart. Both were great and delicious. Definitely a place to drop by for desert after brunch.

I believe I am addicted! I’ve been here once before around the holidays and picked up sweet potato pies which were divine! I had a sweet tooth and figured I’d stop in.
The owner attended the famous Le Cordon Bleu (hope I’m spelling it right) culinary school so she is all about french pastries. I got the chocolate croissant and almond croissant and almost went back for more but it’s too hot to go back outside again.
The almond croissant was definitely my favorite. So flaky and light, simply delicious. The macarons are the true hit and those can be ordered in advance.
The café opens late afternoon, perfect for picking up a treat after work. The Un-​Cupcakes are also popular and those will be on my list of delicacies to try.

Awesome pastries!!! They do all the baking for Oaklawn Coffee as well. The Almond Croissant is one of my fav’s! :)

Make sure to get here early in the day when they still have many of their goodies because they go fast! It was 1pm on a Sunday when I came and many of their baked goods were gone. I was still able to get an orange-​cranberry muffin, a ham and cheese croissant sandwich, and an «un-​cupcake» jar.
Their «un-​cupcake» jars is a jar with cupcake filling with icing and sprinkles (depending on the one you get) on top. It even comes with its own spoon! It’s the perfect serving for one and is great on the go!
The croissant sandwich was dryer and crunchier than I expected, rather than being soft and fluffy. Maybe it would have been better fresh out of the oven.
Next time, I will try to visit in the morning!

This is the absolute best patisserie in town! It took me forever to actually visit it, but it was definitely worth it. Samantha knows her pastries, is a delight to work with. You’d probably have serious difficulties in finding something better not only in Dallas, but in any other place.
I heavily, HEAVILY recommend here Apple-​Cranberry Tarte and her wonderful Almond Croissants, among many, many other goodies. She hasn’t let me down yet.

I’ve been here twice now, and it’s becoming a favorite place. Sadly, Dallas is a baking wasteland. It’s not easy to find good bread or good pastries. I’ve found some decent bakeries, but not patisseries. Until now.
Her croissants are rich with butter, fermentation and good baking flavors. So many Americans under bake their croissants, so many demand them under baked. Rush Patisserie bakes them the way they should be baked, nice and caramelized. As with breads, the bulk of the flavor is in the crust, under bake it and you’ve shortchanged the crust. I love her croissants!
While I haven’t had the macarons everyone is raving about, I have had her Napoleons, her Nutella tart, and her chocolate ganache mini-​cake. I’m not a fan, I’m a RAVING fan.
As with Lockhart Smokehouse, it’s for the best she’s far from my home or I wouldn’t be able to fit behind the seat of my car in short order.
Seriously, if you love pastry, give her a try, you’ll be glad you did!

Yummy macarons! Delicate and fragile on the outside, creamy and light on the inside… I cannot imagine a more perfect macaron outside of Paris! I placed an order for 2 dozen assorted and they were worth every penny. Please note that Samantha only makes her macarons by special order so be sure and call ahead for these little beauties.

If you’re looking for French macarons in Dallas, then this is the only place you should go. I’ve tried macarons across several places in Dallas, and none come even close to Samantha’s macarons. Tart Bakery’s macarons are too small, too chewy, and overpriced. Toni Rivari’s macarons are truly disgusting (I threw away half a dozen, they were so bad) – too sugary, the cookies are hard and chewy at the same time, and the fillings are a nasty buttercream akin to grocery store frosting.
In any case, Samantha’s macarons use quality fillings (ganache, custards, jam fillings, etc.) rather than cheap buttercreams. The macarons are a satisfying size, and the cookie themselves are cooked to near perfection (e.g., right amount of chew vs. crisp, good sugar/​almond flour ratio, etc.). She offers nearly 30 flavors for pre-​orders. I look forward to going through them all. :)
Per previous reviews, the only downsides are the hours and the pre-​order set-​up. You need to call her to place an order of at least a dozen ($ 28 with up to 3 flavors) that you will pick up the next day. She’s located right next to Spiral Diner. I would suggest that you put in Spiral Diner in your GPS, not Rush Patisserie, because her pin on Google/​Apple Maps isn’t located accurately but if you route to Spiral Diner, you’ll find her immediately since she’s on the same block as them.

For all you jerks who gives this establishment a low rating because of her hours, shame on you. Obviously, her hours are listed, so why be mad if the hours are established? She is a one man team, give her a break.
We called in for a special order, to be picked up, and she was nice about it. She is there before opening hours because she’s in the back doing special orders. This place is a tad small, and not very eye pleasing. But, once you see her pastries, your view of this place would change otherwise. and once you bite into that pastry, decorations will no longer be your concern. We had the following:
— Macarons — (Champagne, chocolate, mocha, vanilla bean, strawberry, raspberry, & pistachio) — they all were amazingly good, crispy shell with gooey insides, not super sweet, and tastes so fresh. *wishing I have one right now…*
— Uncupcake:
— Wedding Cake — these were okay, not that great, to be honest.
— Caramel Macchiato — however, these were amazingly awesome
— Pain au chocolat — Probably the best pain au chocolat I’ve ever eaten. just the right amount of chocolate, and the croissant are so, so butter and puffy. The air pockets in these were gorgeously amazing.
This establishment is somewhat far from where we stayed, but it was so worth it!

After reading reviews I made sure to call ahead and see if the store was open. The place has the beginning of cute decorations but it looks slightly unfinished. No macaroons were available of course, but I understand why so no real complaints there. I got the citrus (lemon) tart with little white chocolate shavings on top. I wish the consistency was a bit thicker but the flavor was spot on. It was more like a pudding instead of a firmer custard. It was about 4−5″ in diameter and set me back $ 7. The lemon tart that I bought in Luxembourg was much better and cost about $ 5 so I wasn’t to excited about paying more for a state-​side tart that wasn’t as delicious.
I will go back though, I can’t give a whole hearted review without tasting a few more things :) The other items in the case looked mighty tasty and I have yet to get my hands on one of those un-​cupcakes.

I stopped in here after finding a few reviews online saying Rush Patisserie is the place to get macarons in Dallas. Unfortunately you have to call ahead to place your macaron orders. Fortunately she had a few leftover from someone else’s order, so I was in luck! I got one each of the pistacchio, raspberry, chocolate, and OMG champagne. (OMG is all mine so you know how incredible this macaron was.)
These are some of the best macarons I’ve ever had. The cookie part was perfect and the filling was divine. Samantha was great and we had a chat about some of the world’s tastiest macarons.
The only negative about Rush is that it’s really hard to find. I didn’t actually believe my GPS when it said we had arrived. The hours also seem a little odd to me, but I was only in Dallas for a day and the hours fit my schedule just fine.

The owner here, Samantha is ok with her customer service. Her shop hours confuses me. She mainly bakes her good on a appointment/​call ahead basis on the week days and closes on 2pm and reopens at 6pm on the weekends. So basically she takes a four hour break and reopens so she can bake for the next day.
The bakery itself is hard to find on the corner of Eldorado, of Oak Cliffe. The interior of the shop has Parisian inspired décor, but could use alittle bit more attention on the organization and such. I find that everytime I go… there are a few pastries to offer, I guess she tries to limit from over baking too much inventory.
The macarons here are ok, the shell was dry and cracked as soon as I bit into the shell. The strawberry buttercream macaron has an artificial strawberry flavoring, I thought she could have been more liberal with the amount of buttercream. The strawberry flavor reminds me of a betty crocker strawberry cake mix.
The pistachio macaron filling is decent, it could use some more nuts for a more robust flavor.
The almond croissants are small and crusty. I like the almond paste filling that she fills them up with. Although I was not a fan of the overly browness of my croissants.
Last but not least… cupcake in a jar. I got the red velvet. I have to admit that it doesn’t look really appealing at first, but once you try it, it’s really good.
