This is the only place I can find my favorite pan dulce (cream cheese filled estrella). It's always there and so delicious

I really do not want to say too much about this gem because then it will get more popular. Suffice to say, this is the best place to get sweet bread, bolillos frescos, menudo and tamales for miles!

I always order tres leches (3 milks) cake and until now they have been soft, moist and delicious. Their icing is not excessively too sweet. I will say that their cake decorations are not updated nor creative or modern. They do have a catalog where you can from from but it's very slim. I personally dont mind the simple old school borders and flowers design But I did have to order a sugar sheet once to place over one their cakes. The quarter sheet is $35 half plancha $50 and a plancha (full sheet) is $65

They have a great selection of pan dulce, as well as reasonably priced (and more importantly, delicious) tamales. I also highly recommend their champurrado. The service is quick, efficient and warm. I highly recommend coming here.

For over 15 years our family has been buying and sharing this delicious MX bread. Always helpful when one orders over 300 pieces of assorted bread. I would share a pic, but it's always gobbled up before I get a chance to take one

I been a customer for over 15 years I love the Menudo and tamales, I choose the chicken salsa Verde and Chicken mole ones are the best! The pan dulce is good and my family enjoys the small size portion pan when supposedly watching their weight 😄 Menudo runs out fast on Saturday and Sunday I only wish it was all week. I just tried the Champorado (Mexican tradition hot chocolate)and it was delicious 😋 They also have chorizo con papa breakfast bolillo also very good.

You are not coming here for the atmosphere. However, it is clean and more than serviceable. The Mexican sweet bread, the breakfast torta sandwiches, the tamales, and the low prices are every reason to be here! Arrive very early because the place is popular and things sell out. They will make more, but you don't want to have to wait for that. Everything here is worth the wait. Mexican sweet bread is an art. The moistness, the texture, and the buttery deliciousness matter. They have a variety of breakfast Tortas. I am anxious to try the chicharron with salsa verde. But my go-to every time is the chorizo with egg Torta. Perfection! The tamales are excellent. Corn husk wrapped Mexican tamal, but I am not sure from what region. They have a chicken mole tamale that is out of this world! I don't know any other place that has this, and it is sensationally good. $2.50/tamal won't break the bank. I'll pick up a half dozen to take care of lunch and dinner. Another bonus is that they open so early that it's easy to pick up treats on the way to work. Great place to supply pan dulce for the whole office.

I love coming here and it's very close to my house, reminds me of my grandma baking growing up. They make great tamales as well with lots of meat, very delicious. Their sweet bread are great a big variety to choose from. They open at 5am you won't be sorry if you stopped by and bought some thing to have with your coffee in the morning.
