Sweetest ladies work here, and they make some of the best tamales and pastries I have ever had! Prices are very competitive, but there is a $5 minimum for credit cards!

Bread was super fresh, price was ok, customer service was friendly. Tuesday bolillo are 4/$1.00 defenetly coming back for bread. A lot of variety of Mexican bread. Like the size of them not too big.

Great Pastries, and other baked goods! Tamales are great! The cheese and pepper, Pork in red sauce, and chicken (a bit spicy) in a tomatillo sauce. Been going there for quite a long time.

We ordered a tres leches birthday cake, and it was absolutely amazing - fresh, light, and easily the best we’ve ever had! They truly make the best tres leches cake. The bakery also has a wonderful selection of freshly baked items, all made with great quality and flavor. Highly recommend!

Placed my tamale order last night and I picked up the freshest ever just made this morning tamales. I ordered pork, pepper/cheese, and sweet pineapple. Each type is delicious, moist, and full of distinct flavor. You will not be disappointed. And the service made the visit all the more pleasant. Authentic tamales and English is spoken too. THE BEST!!@

Beautiful selection of desserts and pastries!! Coming back in a few days to get a big flan for my brother's birthday and I grabbed a personal slice to snack on in the meantime. The flan is thick and silky, the empanadas are soft and I recommend heating them up for a few seconds at home! All these pastries plus flan plus a Jarritos only $11 and some change. 10/10 recommend you stop by.
