Decided to stop by on a whim, and was surprised by the variety of pastries they had. Everything i got was absolutely delicious, and their prices are very reasonable. Service was fast too. I don't remember what is on this focaccia but, my god, am I going back there again to get more... 10/10

Wow. Sensational pastries and cakes. Really I did not know they could taste so scrumptious.

A mixed bag of disengaged staff, underwhelming pastries, and the best tamales ever.

My wife and I recently tried this bakery for the first time. Despite the place being empty when we first entered, none of the three workers inside acknowledged us. The young woman who ended up helping us was fine once we engaged her, but lacked warmth or a welcoming demeanor.

Being our first visit, we sampled a variety of offerings: The churros, while tasty, had a somewhat rubbery texture. The lemon mousse was very tart with minimal sweetness to balance it out. The tres leches cake lacked flavor, barely tasting like anything. The chocolate mousse was marginally better, though still disappointing. Overall, the pastries were underwhelming for someone who enjoys them on the sweeter and richer side. However, for those who often find pastries too sweet or rich, you'll probably like them a lot more than I did.

Why does a bakery have the best tamales I've ever had? That's a pretty sad condemnation of the Mexican restaurants in the area whose tamales all pale in comparison. They were tasty and moist. The chicken tamale was so good we came back the same day for more. However, their hot sauces were awful, completely lacking salt.

We plan to return for their savory options, particularly the tamales, but will likely pass on their lackluster pastries in the future.

One of my favorite places to get take out in CU. The burrito bowls are always fresh, flavorful, and worth their value. Pair it with some horchata and a slice of cake and you’re set
