    a sandwich wrapped in foil

    The Mexican bread is decent and over priced. On two different occasions I've gone to order a bagel with cream cheese and both were a let down. They barely put any cream cheese and the second time, they also added jelly which I didn't ask for. Basically a waste of money because my kids didn't want to eat it like that. The bacon and egg cheese is more bread than anything. You're better off going to a bodega.

    This place generally has hood reviews so I was convinced to come here. I'm currently living in Brooklyn from Texas & was craving pan dulce. I've had a lot of trouble finding any comparable Mexican establishments in NY but since the area was sunset I figured I had a good shot. I was sorely disappointed. This place doesn't have a big selection of pan dulcet bu it did offer my favorites : concha, cuernos, cachetada. I was even bamboozled into purchasing a big canela version of a concha.I took these home & was horrified. To begin with the concha tasted stale even though they assured me it was baked that day. It certainly tasted differently than what I'm accustomed to. The cuerno on the other hand wasn't as stake but tasted different than other cuernos I have tasted. In the same manner the cachetada or the bread with butter sugar smear tasted stale. Even the smear which is usually the best part was tasteless. Furthermore, the next day all of the bread was hard as a rock. I did ask where the owners were from because of course areas do make them differently. I for one am not a fan of D.F or surrounding areas type of style of bread , the best pan dulce I have tasted hands down are from bakers Jalisco. I've yet to find good pan dulce in Brooklyn but I'll continue on my search. I didn't try any of the food items so perhaps come here for those.

    I really wanted to love this place, especially because it has great energy and the staff is super friendly -- but I just didn't find it to be as good as other panaderias in the neighborhood. Both the tamales and baked goods were pretty dry and unremarkable. I know some people *swear* by their tamales, so I'll be giving them another try at some point, but have no been impressed so far.

    Coconut shavings on top with vanilla cream filling inside. Just the right amount not too much not too little.

    Love getting my morning ice coffee here and evening. Great tasting coffee, always goes great with a nice sweet bread. Huge selection of sweet bread always can switch it up. If you are having a hard time deciding ask someone for some help and they would gladly recommend something. This time I picked up a small sweet bread with coconut shavings on top with a small layer of vanilla cream filling inside, just the perfect amount. If you like vanilla cream try the churros they are great trust me. If you haven't gone next door to grab some tamales I suggest you do. My favorite are the salsa verde. . A small amount of green salsa with melted cheese inside which is amazing. They tend to get sold out so don't be disappointed if you are not able to get one. Just ask when the next batch will come out trust me so worth the wait.

    Lemme say this one time, YOU HAVE TO BE THERE EARLY TO GET TAMALES. They go FAST. And it's because they are one of the best around. Don't slack, wake up and go get them. I love that the owner is always around giving a hand and helping out too. Shows alot about the guy and establishment. I can't speak for every food item here but the Mexican Bread, coffee and Tamales are worth the trip. BRING CASH for a quick and easy transaction.

    I was eating my breakfast this morning when I found this hair in there salsa verde tamale. This is absolutely ridiculous and gross; I absolutely don't recommend buying here!

    The Rosca de Reyes from this bakery is excellent!. The right amount of sugar and fresh/dried fruits. It's fresh and deliciousy baked every day.. The service was fantastic. I bought 3 for my clients and friends. It was a complete success of a Fiesta de Reyes.

Everyone that works there is super attentive and for how busy they are they always make sure to check up on your table. Their tacos are extremely delicious, they don't hold back with make sure each taco is full of any kind of meat that you get! Full of flavor and just looking at them reminds you why they're the best. Some other notable things that you should get is the quesadillas and the nachos they have. I'll have to keep coming back to try other things. Great place for sporting events as well as I was here with a group to watch Brazil vs Morocco and stayed to watch the Knicks win right after and become champions!

This neighborhood gem offers an industrialized minimalist form of decor with pops of color and art. Cozy but roomy, the bar area had mostly 2 seater tables and a few with high chairs. We recently went for a birthday brunch. Restaurant Week was still in effect but we decided to choose from the regular brunch menu. Place was low key and giving neighborhood vibes. The service was 10 STARS! Our waitress was extremely attentive and kind. We were also checked on by a second staff member who I think may have been a manager but cannot be certain. We started with cocktails and they serve chips and salsa gratis. I had the Jalapeno and Hibiscus Margarita and my friend ordered the Pepper Margarita with Strawberry and Chipotle. Mine was a bit on the sweet side without a hint of tequila. My friend's drink definitely was the better of the two. Not overly sweet and definitely a flavor of tequila was present. We also ordered a guacamole. I must say it was quite small and barely served 2 people. I suggest if more than 2 guests are part of the experience, order more than one. For my entree, I requested a market salad and 2 veggie tacos with a side of birria consume. Salad was very fresh and I am sure was made to order as opposed to premade a week prior and waiting in a fridge to be served. My tacos were average but satisfying. The consume was a bit disappointing as it was more of a water/broth based and not of a typical gravy consistency. It was not exciting. My friend's entree was the highlight of the experience. She had the brisket quesadilla. Never have I seen a quesadilla with a crispy outside such as this. A culinary masterpiece indeed. She consumed it all and not one complaint afterward. Delish. We did receive a complimentary Churro plate for the birthday celebration. They were drizzled with caramel and berries. Served warm, they were a dream for the palate. I did use the bathroom which was a single stall. It was clean enough but not well lit. The biggest downfall of my experience was the temperature of the restaurant. I understand it is summer, however, there was no A/C and the inside was extremely hot. I sweated through my entire experience. Even the bathroom felt like 100 degrees. We did not complain but our waitress noticed and brough a fan out to circulate the air. They do have ceiling fans but honestly I did not feel them. The management/owner should consider more temperature control methods during the hotter months as it was quite uncomfortable. To sum it up, I thought this experience was mostly positive and would patronize it again.

Most of all, what I really appreciated with every bite is that I wanted more and that it was so unique compared to anything else that I had ever tried. I thought the tasting menu was a really good deal, but you should also consider booking just a la carte because everything was so solid. You can tell when the chips served alongside the guacamole are so delicious and so unique that the rest of the meal is going to be incredible. I will say that it did seem slightly understaffed. Our waiters did the best they could, but dinner took longer than expected. It was still a great experience for both those on dates and those there with friends!

    4.5 stars, 5 for food and 4 for service…read more Food was delish! My favorites were the gem salad elote and the guac. We also got the crispy snapper taco and the duck to share. I loved all the sauces that they give to each table that I couldn't decide which one I liked more. The drinks were very good as well. We got the deconstructed margarita and I really enjoyed it as well as the pina colada cocktail. Service was a bit on the slower side but to be fair, there weren't many people working the tables. Also one of our dishes got served to the wrong table and then never came :( definitely wanna come back to try the tuna tartare which was the dish that didn't get delivered.
