    Great place!!
    Alex A.

    I just love all of their drinks! They are always fresh and the variety is great! No wait in line and you can sample before buying! Also, their sweet bread is fresh and warm out the oven!!

    The service here is great, and the prices are even better! This is a fast casual, where your food is made instantly as you order. Portions were very generous, and the place was very clean and well maintained with plenty of seating and easy parking. Not much in terms of quality and I've definitely had better flavors, But the price point and service was excellent.

    Service was efficient and very helpful It was very clean and tidy. It was a true great experience. And the drinks were absolutely delicious, but Agua Fresca that's what I went for and they always deliver.

    Nice employees inside

    Grilled Chicken Torta (Torta de Pollo)

    Really good service and the staff is always nice. Chicken torta is good, as well as the rice pudding.

    Very nice interior in this location

    Never came to this Van Nuys location of their store yet. It was my first time, last Saturday on lunch time, only 2 people there eating there and a couple came in for some pastries prior to my arrival. This location is bigger, newer and looked nice. But, this one feels kinda "cold" and less authentic.. less homey vibe. Outside of this location, there was a construction work on the street. Maybe it affected the business.. not sure! I bought 4 chicken burrito bowls for me and my coworkers. Food tasted as great, but they really being skimpy on the chicken also less rice but a lot of lettuce. Therefore 3 stars. For the price I've paid I expected a bit more meat, a bit more rice. I've been a regular customer at the one on Vanowen & Sherman Way. That location is smaller, older BUT, now.. after I had been to this one, I could say I like that one much much better! That one feels more authentic Mexican, has homey & feel-good-lifelier vibes in it. For the same price, I got more bang for my bucks there.

    I was enticed to try El Gallo Giro for the first time by their July 4th weekend special offering asada tacos for $1.99, asada burritos for $7.99, and asada tortas for $8.99 occurring July 4th - 6th. Mariana was pleasant when she informed me that the special was BOGO for $8.99 and not for a single torta. I was surprised by her answer and told her it was a 4th of July weekend asada special but she did not seem to know what sale I was referring to. I looked at the ad again and told her it was okay, I would order online. I did so and promptly picked up my order. The torta was well balanced. I am still wondering why she seemed unaware of the Independence weekend offer.

    Great service by Gaby and Estephani very friendly. Clean bakery and fresh bread I will be coming back.

    Carne asada tacos
    Serene A.

    Solid but definitely not the best tacos, I come here to get pan dulces more than anything else and the customer service is always great so that's why I keep going back. It's spacious and clean and has plenty of seating if you want to sit and eat.

    I need to come back to try their cakes but their pastries are good! The selection is limited…read morethough, as they focus on cakes. I stopped by Sunday around 1 to pick up some pastries on my way to a friend's house. It's located in a plaza with a small parking lot. First thing you notice when you step in is that they have a lot of cakes on display. There's no seating either, it's strictly a grab and go place. Both times I came, someone was picking up a cake ahead of me, so that's definitely what to get here. I asked the cashier, and she said that you can either call or came in person to place a cake order. You can also come by and pick up one of their ready made cakes. Will keep this place in mind for the future. I picked up a number of pastries and tried some of them at my friend's place. Here's what I tried: Slice of vanilla roll cake ($2) - very moist but not much cream Almond croissant ($3.50) - loved the almond filling Sponge cake ($2.75) - delicious! Almond cookie ($0.35 each) - tastes exactly like the almond cookies I ate growing up Cream puff ($2) - this was the only thing I didn't like. The puff layers on both the top and bottom were dry Next time I need a cake, I know where to get it!

    Really the best bakery in town: they sell pastries and also really the best cake ever!…read moreI had my birthday cake there and you can see the pictures it was white with light, pink decorations, and Strawberry and banana inside. But last night I got the cake for my son's birthday, and I got him a 8" très Leche cake; it had slivered almonds on the side, all around and a layer of strawberries inside for $52 All the guests love that, including my son that enjoyed his birthday cake! Honestly, if I can give six stars to that Bakery I would! It is located in Van Nuys off Sherman Way, one block West of Sepulveda! A true treasure of Bakery

    Nice in-market bakery option for the Van Nuys area…read more I stopped by around 9:30 and they were still loading display cases with pastries but a good amount were available then and there The sole cashier was nice and worked fast to help multiple customers at once I ordered a variety of cheese pastries and savory pastries, about 24 total for $45. The pastries are all baked fresh and we're still warm when I got them! They're all good sizes and still relatively cheap like Porto's or 75C bakery I really enjoyed the spinach cheese pastry and although I liked the regular cheese, it seems they use a lower quality feta so it was pretty salty. They're sweet cream cheese pastry was not too sweet but tasted nice and my disappointment with the guava pastry is the food coloring because it was a neon red which it shouldn't be

    I stopped by this Lilit Bakery Cafe inside Jons Marketplace to get a pastry before my dentist…read moreappointment. This little cafe has some decent selections of pastry. This cafe is on the right side of the Jons Marketplace right when you walk in. I couldn't decide between the butter croissant or cheese puffs so I asked the lady working which one she would recommend. She said both were good but the cheese puffs are more savory. So I went with the cheese puffs, the bread was okay but I did not like the cheese at all. I think the butter croissant would've been better so next time when I'm back to the dentist.
