If I could describe Ohh...macarons in one words, it would be "memorable". I ordered a macaron Kirby cake last year for my birthday because "why not". It's such a unique idea, and I wholeheartedly support the creativity and artistry behind it. Tanantha went above and beyond in creating this cake as well as anything she makes and sells. I ordered the salted caramel which tasted Ohh-mazing! I also really enjoyed the vanilla bean flavor for the Halloween kits and the gingerbread during the holiday season. An absolute delight! Ohh...macarons is a powerhouse of creativity and continues to tickle the taste buds in all the right ways. Great job!!
P.S. the star in the photo was nudged by me prior to taking, and my mouth was watering too much to notice. Oops! Looked super cute anyways!

I’ve had macrons across the world. This shops Macrons are more dense than others Ive had, which I like, but they also have a quality I haven’t experienced since I was in the Palace of Versailles in France. Cheap Macrons are usually overwhelmingly sweet. But, each macron at “Oh… Macrons” is a vessel for a unique, wonderful flavor, and the sweetness is just what it leaves lingering in your mind. These are macrons done right.

Nice place with nice people, but with terrible hours and product that leaves a lot to be desired.
I went there for the first time today with my girlfriend, excited to try a new local macaron place in Bothell. We seemed to be the first ones in the store that day and everything looked great and fresh. The whole place has a very homey, noncorporate vibe. My girlfriend and I opted for the box of 6 for $18 and the service was quick and courteous. The whole buying experience was fairly pleasant, except about half of their offerings are upcharged and aren't available for the box of six. No biggie.
So we went a block back to my gf's place and tried the macarons. I will say that the flavors are pretty outstanding. Especially the Vietnamese Coffee and Black Sesame Creme Brulee were fantastic. Unfortunately, these macarons have the worst consistency of any macaron I've ever had, including pre-frozen store bought ones. The frosting in the middle is thick, cold, and chewy with few exceptions. I would be completely unsurprised if I found out these are frozen and thawed before they're served. They lack any sort of freshness you might assume, which is an absolute dealbreaker for me when it comes to baked goods.
Overall I was fairly disappointed. I love supporting local businesses, and I want them to succeed, but between the restrictive hours and mediocre consistency, I don't see myself coming back. There are much better macarons available not far away.

Love the concept and flavors but all six of the macaroons we tried tasted stale or previously frozen.
There was an unpleasant chewiness to all of the macaroons especially the black sesame brûlée. The filling is good maybe a little dense for some taste. Salted Caramel was probably the most fresh with the Vietnamese Coffee also being of great flavor.
Service was good but the shop is only open limited hours two days a week currently which is inconvenient.
Pricing is all over the place with three tiers of pricing so when choosing an $18 box of six you have to stay within the bounds of that pricing.
Completion for sweet shops in this area is fierce and for the price I’d rather visit Hillside bakery down the street or wait for Pasterier 55. Then for macaroons specifically i'd probably opt for a trip to Kirkland for Lady Yum, sorry.
I hope they can dial in the freshness of products here and i love the creative and custom possibilities they offer. A signature sweets shop like this should strive for the best possible quality.

The macaroons are as delicious as they are adorable! I love the rotating flavors and hand crafted designs, it makes it hard to choose a favorite! I brought some to my baby shower and they were an immediate hit - everyone was so impressed! The shop is cute and inviting and the service is great!

Tried these for the first time today. Super delicious! None of them taste overly sweet and the flavors are nice and punchy, and seem to be naturally flavored. My new go-to for macarons!

I highly recommend ohh macarons! Some of the best macarons I have ever had. Design was exactly what I had hoped for. Customer service is excellent. Easy pick up at sidekick coffee. I will most definitely be ordering again.
