Everything is freshly baked and the food is delicious. You won't be able to decide which pastry to choose, I guarantee it! Friendly staff to boot!

Someone gifted us with assortment of cookies from this bakery in Buenos Aires. All were delicious. My favorite was a cookie topped with raspberry jam, an almond and icing. It was better than an orgasm...ok maybe not better but pretty darn close. These cookies were bite size but each had its own distinct and delicious flavor. If ever I make it to Buenos Aires I will definitely look this bakery up and spend the entire day sampling all their little bits of heaven. So `Ono!

Service: I was looking for alfajores to bring back to the states. An older woman seemed annoyed with me and was not friendly during our interaction. Cost: She shouted a price to an older man who rang me up. I didn't pay much attention to the price until I saw the charge on my credit card. It was $27 for 4 alfajores. This is way above an average cost so I feel they took advantage of a tourist who is not fluent in Spanish. Taste: I had one and had given the others to friends. No one enjoyed them. All they did was crumble with each bite and make a mess. Do not visit this place as you will get ripped off, have poor service and not receive a tasty treat. Servicio: Buscaba alfajores para llevar a Estados Unidos. Una señora mayor parecía molesta conmigo y no fue amable durante nuestra interacción. Costo: Le gritó el precio a un señor mayor que me cobró. No le presté mucha atención hasta que vi el cargo en mi tarjeta. Eran $27 por 4 alfajores. Esto está muy por encima del precio promedio, así que creo que se aprovecharon de un turista que no habla español con fluidez. Sabor: Probé uno y les había dado los demás a mis amigos. A nadie le gustaron. Lo único que hicieron fue desmoronarse con cada bocado y hacer un desastre. No vayan a este lugar, los estafarán, les darán un mal servicio y no recibirán un bocadillo delicioso.

Two shields! This place is pretty safe. It's got standard…read morefood that you'd expect at any restaurant, nothing to wild, nothing too ethnic, nothing too spicy. It's all fresh and appetizing. I'd compare this to a Panera Bread in the USA. It's even got a bakery attached to it, so it has better than average baked goods and coffees. I got a bagel with lox and a coffee- all delicious. The weirdest thing about this place, and the bakery next door is the way you have to pay. It's some weird process with receipts and the register next door, and I didn't get what they were doing, and am pretty sure I messed everything up by trying to pay my waiter for the food I got. The bakery has so many great baked goods. The restaurant was clean, with plenty of seating. The restaurant is right on the coner The baked goods here are the star of the show here.
