    This panderia is amazing! The pan and cake were delicious. All the bread was moist and fresh. Not many places can get tres leches cake done that well! The staff were friendly and it was overall a cute bakery.

    Good selection of Mexican pastries. Serve yourself style. Food tastes okay. The lady helping us was nice. Saw a lot of locals going to this spot.

    Hello, let me know if I can ripped off by paying $9.15 usd for these 2 conchas and 2 other bread that I am not sure what I got. Did not get a receipt, so ask for the bread price before grabbing them.

    Delicious pastries. Freshly baked daily. There are a lot of them, perhaps you need to do several visits to try them all.

    Absolutely phenomenal and my new favorite donut shop! I came in at 10 AM on a Friday and they had…read moreplenty of selection of all my favorite kinds of donuts. The cashier let me know that the apple fritters I was looking at were fresh out of the oven and still warm, so I had to try those and they were the best apple fritters I've ever had! (Fresh is always better, of course). But we also tried their blueberry cake donuts, maple bars, glazed old fashions, and a few others and all were very soft, luscious, and just a perfect version of that type of donut. I have high standards for baked goods and it only took touching one of their classic sugar covered donuts and feeling just how pillowy soft it was to know they have an amazing rise and fantastic quality. I will be returning here from now on for all my donuts!! The shop is cute inside too. They have small tables for eating your purchase afterwards and offer coffee and tea. It doesn't feel like you're in the way here and the service was incredibly friendly and welcoming. No critiques whatsoever!

Unfortunately, his favorite, the Buttermilk Bar and Powdered Sugar were TOO DRY to even eat. We threw them in the trash. The Boston Cream was really good however. We had tried Nory's once before, he thought that he would give them a 2nd try. Waste of money.

The prices are steep. I ordered four donuts and six donut holes and the total came to over $20. There are donut shops nearby with better quality donuts that may not be as large (they're are regular/average size), but they're more reasonably priced. The setup is walk-up windows only, with a few seating options on the side near parking lot. Customer service was okay--not particularly warm, but not rude either. I don't enjoy leaving a review like this, but these days people are paying close attention to value. With how expensive everything has become, it's harder to justify spending this much on something like donuts. Don't get me wrong, if I have the luxury or feeling of splurging, there are plenty of specialty donut shops throughout California that fit that category. Unfortunately, this one just isn't for me, though it clearly still has a loyal customer base.

You walk in and the vibes were so welcoming, clean, vibrant, comfy, and spacious. Loved all the details of the artwork and colors they put in to their space. Take time to read the captions of the photos on wall -- it made me feel so connected to the coffee shops origins! I love a good story and knowing the heartbeat of a business. I told the barista how I randomly found them asked her what was their most ordered drink? She told me the De La Olla Latte, Horchata Latte, and Blueberry Matcha. I was in a coffee mood so I went with the De La Olla Latte, got it half sweetened, with oat milk and got it hot. This cup of coffee was one of the best the had. The quality and taste of their coffee beans from Mexico do not disappoint! Also the extra flavoring for this speciality drink was so flavorful too. Well worth the taste, experience, and price! I also ordered a Cardamom Vanilla Cinnamon Morning Bun to go with it. My word the pastry was perfectly made with its softness and outside crunch, and the flavors were so well balanced none of it was over powering or too sweet. The barista's customer service was also so welcoming, kind, and took time to explain their drinks and any other questions I had. She put the cherry in top of my experience there. I am already looking forward to going back to try out their blueberry match or horchata latte! Plus I heard they have bomb conchas. Overall: 10/10 would recommend!

The coffee was fine. The staff seem to know the local regulars and chat them up appropriately. The seating it still hard and uncomfortable. I'll try again one more time to see if hey flip my bippy. So far two stars for they way they interacted with other. One star for the pastry and the coffee mis up and late service was a - of stars. And my picky pastry folks (she knows who she is) would say it's not a true croissant, as there are cuts across the pastry... but it's buttery and flaky..
