    Hello Kitty baby shower cake.

    Amazing bakery with excellent service! My husband ordered a cake for our baby shower the day before the event. Arevalo's designed a delicious, custom cake for our event despite the last minute notice. They even decorated it for our Hello Kitty theme! We love this bakery and highly recommend.

    Nice bakery. Checked out this spot after looking up Mexican Bakeries in the area. Clean small store with one wall which had cabinets filled with baked goods. Grab a plastic tray and tongs to the left of the glass counter and the cabinets are on the right-side as you walk in. The counter glass display had various refrigerated cakes. There was a white company van parked out front. Said they do farmer's markets. Asked about the Elote bread that another yelper mentioned they liked. The man at the front was nice and went to the back to grab one and show me as there weren't any in the cabinets. It was sugar dusted and had a brown filling. I liked the other breads more, but my family like the elote bread. Picked out a variety to try. Don't know all the names. Most of the breads we chose were perfectly light and soft, not dry inside. There was one rounded one that was yellow split topped and dense. The pink topping had a light strawberry flavor. The conchas were light and soft. Prices are hand written next to each item in the display cabinets. They take Credit Card and cash. Would go back if we're ever in the area.

    Ordered a custom cake and it came out amazing. Placing a order was simple and efficient. My family and friends loved the tres leches cake!

    This is one of my favorite bakeries in Vista. The ownerIs really accommodating to any special orders that you may have. He makes the best pan dulce that I have ever tasted. The best part about the owner is that he gives back to the community which is very important. The bakery is a family owned business. He can make any special orders from cakes, cookies, cake tops and bread. I strongly recommend it. The bakery is a must tray for anyone living in Vista.

    My all time fave are the empanadas de piña, with the perfect amount of piña filling while still being soft and moist.

Don't skimp on the potato balls and sandwiches too. I just love this place. I also love that they have affogatos with a legit espresso machine.

I love churros, and they make theirs fresh while you wait, which makes it so much better then getting a churro that's been sitting under a heater and drying out. They have several varieties of churros and different ways that you can order them. They also serve soft serve vanilla ice cream. We got the vanilla soft serve along with the bag of churros, which contains three of them. They came out piping hot and fresh, covered and that delicious cinnamon sugar. They were excellent and paired with the ice cream, it was a nice treat. The ice cream had a good texture but did taste a bit artificial, but i definitely still enjoyed it. Bottom line, of you look he churros this is your spot. They also serve food, which we unfortunately didn't get to try on this visit. They do have a small parking lot in the back and also some tables outside to sit on.

    Service - 5 Ambiance - 5…read moreFood - 4.9 We were there before 6 on a Tuesday, so no problem with parking. Had a great table for our party of 7. Our waitstaff was headed by Kap & he did an excellent job. Told us to check out the happy hour menu since it was almost over, so we could get appetizers in at a reduced price. Ordered the calamari (crunchy, yet tender), bruschetta caprese (piled high with mozzarella & basil & chopped tomato), Caesar salad (crisp greens with a garlicky Caesar dressing), meatballs (2 large in a marinara sauce - so tender). They also have sliced warm bread on the table with olive oil/balsamic or butter. The drinks were perfect - nice and chilled and crafted perfectly. Kap also made a great recommendation on a bottle of wine. The menu has changed though. Some of our favorites have disappeared... (seafood risotto), so tried other dishes. Carbonara is so rich & creamy. The pizza margharita was cooked perfectly with a nice crust, but was a little lackluster in taste (not enough cheese maybe?). I did order a side of pesto to add some flavor. The lobster ravioli is always great here, so 2 people ordered it. Added chicken to the vodka penne (grandson's plate was completely emptied). Also had a fettuccini Montanara. Everyone but the grandson had leftovers to take home, so servings more than adequate. Kap really made the dinner perfect. Attentive without being over-bearing & making great recommendations throughout. Will definitely be back.

We thought we'd try Little Cakes Kitchen, so we ordered the half-dozen box of assorted cupcakes. They were delivered through DoorDash. We knew we were not able to pick our flavors by ordering this way, but figured Little Cakes would send a representative sample, which I assume they did. I'm not sure which flavors were in our box because they weren't labeled. I wanted to know what we were eating, but I had to dig through many past reviews to identify most of them. The 6 flavors received in the 1/2-dozen box were: * Vanilla * Chocolate * Almond Champagne * German Chocolate * Something Marshmallow-Topped * Something Chocolate--Topped with Thin Vanilla Icing and Vanilla Buttercream All the cupcakes were of average size and were decorated nicely enough. Albeit the cake part on all the cakes were a bit dry. It was difficult to discern a specific flavor on a few, so I've come to the conclusion that garnishing must be their gift. Most of the 'vanilla' flavors, were indistinguishable in flavor from one another, except for the Almond Champagne, which had a cloying almond paste filling, and too much filling to cake ratio. Of particular concern was that the frosting on all seemed to be off in ratios of butter to shortening. I suspect there was an over abundance of shortening in all the cupcakes, which to me, is not palatable, nor is it delicious or anything resembling what a good cupcake should be. They miss the mark in my opinion. Due to the high prices and the fact that the frosting on all the cupcakes was cloying and poorly prepared with what I suspect was too much shortening, and not enough icing sugar, I would likely not buy cupcakes from Little Cakes Kitchen again.

We have been…read morehere before a few years back and the cupcakes and brownies were just as good as I remembered. I was so excited they had a Jack Skellington themed cupcake (it was a tasty chocolate cupcake). I really enjoyed the almond cupcake I got. My mom loves chocolate cupcakes with white frosting and the one I picked up for her did not disappoint. They were all tasty and super moist. My Mom also really like the brownies, especially since they had walnuts (her favorite). Baked goods were reasonably priced and worth every penny. Love how the store is laid out and how the cupcakes are displayed and labeled. The store is nice, bright, and open. The staff is very personable, helpful, and overall amazing. I will for sure be stopping when I am in the area again.

To my surprise Water Shack's burgers were delicious and satisfying that I find myself coming back here ever so often. Their burgers aren't the heavy, greasy/high fat patties you would get from other places. However, their 1/4 lb patties are their smallest patties and heft makes for that ideal bun to burger ratio. Did I need to order double patties on most of my burger orders? Probably not. Their patties are on the leaner side but they aren't dry; and the fixings from any burger you choose will satisfy that meaty burger fix you're looking for. The Chicken Patty Melt is also a very tasty item. Very cheesy, buttery and crispy toasted bread with chicken breast. Their fries and onion rings also come air-fried so this place focuses more on the healthier comfort food options that wont leave you feeling heavy and drowsy. This place is also doubled as a purified water dispensary and also serves baked goods and ice cream. Love this type of no-frills, unassuming place with very friendly staff and serves up some delicious food!
