First, you eat with your eyes, the bakery is decorated for Cherry Blossom season with lovely pink lanterns and beautiful displays. There are plenty of bunnies for Easter as well. Then, you feast your eyes on the cases of croissants, sandwiches, and a variety of delicious tarts and pastries. Thank you, Larsa for your excellent service. She was so patient with me, as I made up my mind. I bought an almond croissant and a moulan pastry. They were both fabulous. The almond croissant was light and flaky with a delicious filling. The moulane pastry had coconut cream, mango filling, and layers of heavenly goodness. I just wanted to savor the taste. It was craveable. My last review was 3 years ago when they opened. I am so glad to see the same quality and love baked into each of their desserts.

They don't mess around with quality. I wish the best for them.

There was a self-serve area for customers to get rice, beans, and other items. Behind the counter, there was a display with pastries and another with empanadas. I ordered one chicken and a ham and cheese. I also ordered two churros. Once I saw how cheap they were, I asked to add two more. I was accidentally charged for two more empanadas. I told the lady behind the register what happened and she denied that I was charged incorrectly and I had to explain a couple of times before someone else told her exactly what I already told her and she finally fixed it. Overall, I don't think I would go back to this particular location. The empanadas were good but the churros were cold and the customer service wasn't great.

I have been to this establishment every week for over 5 years. I loved bringing my 3 young children, husband and friends here. However, today I came here with my elderly, injured mother and my young daughter. A young Brazilian cashier with dark, curly hair spoke so disrespectfully to my mother! When I asked her to show some respect to elders (and injured elders at that), she refused to serve us and take our money. What kind of cashier speaks ill to their customers and refuses to take their money!? I feel really badly for the owner of Brazilian Bakery, because he hired a cashier who refuses to sell to his customer. She literally turned our $30 away. And only because I asked her to show some respect to my elderly mother. I was flabbergasted! I asked what is the problem? She said, "The only problem here is your annoying, stupid mother." Inside I wanted to punch her in the face, but because I have class and was raised better, I told her that she is what she called my mother! I promised her that I will inform her manager and other patrons about her awful customer service and disrespect. If you are Brazilian and crave Brazilian food, go to "By Brazil" or the cafe around the corner (Americas). Not only is the food there spectacular, their staff is so respectful and warm, and they never refuse to take your money! Be advised my fellow Brazilian neighbors!

The offerings are "European-inspired". It's part of a national food service and bakery company called Vie de France Yamazaki Inc., and has a network of US distributors, so, it's a chain. There's always a lot of pastries, breads and desserts available, which I appreciate. Overall their baked goods are consistent. I've never tried their sandwiches or entrees. I enjoy their almond croissant with chocolate drizzle; it's crispy and gooey where it should be. The apricot & cream tart is satisfying. There's a wide variety of cookies and muffins, with specials here and there, and generally these are up to snuff. The coffee is usually well brewed. It can get busy, especially on the weekends. Seating is very limited; only a couple of tables outside (overlooking a busy parking lot). This is mostly a to-go spot.

6/27/26: Stopped by Tasty Nook Cafe for breakfast while I was in the Medical Center area. The…read morerestaurant was clean, the staff was welcoming, and the service throughout the meal was friendly and attentive. We ordered the Big Eaters Platter, the Corned Beef Hash & Eggs, and shared a Nutella Crepe with Strawberries for dessert. The portions were generous, especially the Big Eaters Platter, making it a solid choice if you're coming in hungry. The corned beef hash was decent, and the Nutella crepe with fresh strawberries was a nice sweet finish to the meal. That said, I thought the food was just okay for the price. Nothing we ordered was bad, but nothing really stood out enough to make me want to come back. The quality was solid, but I left feeling like there are better breakfast options in the area for the same price point. If you work nearby or are visiting one of the surrounding medical offices or hospitals, I could definitely see this being a convenient spot for a quick breakfast or lunch. However, as someone visiting the area, I don't think it's a place I'd go out of my way to return to. Overall, friendly service and a clean restaurant helped make for a pleasant experience, but the food didn't quite justify the price. A good neighborhood café if you're close by, but probably not a destination breakfast spot.

The omelet arrived well done. I forgave that but this was the blandest chorizo I had ever tasted. It was devoid of flavor and there was no hint of any kind of spice. At least the peppers and onions had some flavor. What I tasted the most was grease and that prevented me from finishing the omelet. The hash browns were crispy at least. The latte was ultra-bitter and tasted burnt -- severely burnt. I will not go back.

Both dishes were excellent, cooked & flavored to perfection with ample portion size. And the Shirin was perfect! We were too full to try dessert, but maybe next time. Restrooms were clean, they do have carry out and possibly delivery option as well as catering services. We were pleased with our meal. Yes it is a bit pricey, but it is quality and we had plenty to take some home. Do know that credit has the additional service charge as many places are doing lately, no surprise.

Not only is the Matcha extremely aesthetically pleasing when you pick it up, but it's also not hard to mix like everywhere else. The strawberry purée mixes in perfectly with the rest of the drink. You don't have to shake it up like crazy or spoon it to actually mix everything. It's also extremely balanced. It's not too hard on the strawberry, nor is it too much with the Matcha - perfect blend! If you love matcha - go now!
