Service was mid at best! Pan dulce/donuts were either old or incredibly bad!!! Young lady had terrible attitude for no apparent reason. Also bought the supposed delicious tamales, taste like frozen Albertsons tamales. Won't be returning.

Tried to get some donuts because i saw the reviews. Unfortunately, they decided to close almost 2 hours earlier.

My husband and I went after dinner and everything still seemed fresh. My husband was very pleased with his cannoli, the brownie was soft and perfectly sweet, the fruit tarte was delicious and refreshing. Will definitely be visiting again for a sweet treat.
