My first memories of San Antonio Bakery are rooted in the 1980s, but it's been around since something like the 1960s. My parents remember going to this bakery when they were young! So, yes, my family would visit this family-owned panaderia for the conchas and this round, jelly topped pan. I don't recall the name of that particular bread, but the best way to eat it was round and round until you reached the center, which you would devour in one big messy bite. On the recent visit, they did not have them on display. But I was glad to see they had cochitos, bolillo and lots of different types of cookies and muffins. Here, they also sell sodas, chips and a range of spices, like cinnamon, dried chili peppers, chamomile, bay leaves and oregano. They also sell dried fruits, nuts, candy and juice.

Lol dang it, even my food is hot pink..ha ha

Stopped here after a quick trip to Northgate Market. Surprised this place had so many reviews, so…read morehad to check it out. My husband and I came here pretty late, I would've liked to try their churros and other desserts that looks super delicious, but wasn't feeling it when we visited. We just opted to get a large horchata to share. I was not really a fan. Their horchata is super, super freaking sweet. I've definitely had better horchata elsewhere. The price and quantity is fair I think, but I'll have to try other things on their menu to see if just the horchata is not to my taste. Interior is very clean and spacious. This place is very well decorated, with art and merchandise around the store. However, it took quite a while before my order was taken even when no one was in front of me. Kind of just awkwardly stood there and took my phone out because no one came to take my order. Service was nice though when someone finally came over to take my order, and I got my drink really quick. There's a little bit of parking available, you may have an issue grabbing a spot on a typical day I think. There is a convenient drive-thru though. Will try to check this place out again whenever I'm nearby, I'm hoping other drinks will be better.

Update: They're no longer affiliated with Fivestars!…read more I've since gone two additional times to try their waffle bites. My last trip was kind of spontaneous because I suddenly got a Fivestars reward that day for these waffle bites. However, when I arrived, I was looking for the Fivestars tablet only to be met by a Clover tablet instead. It felt like I went through a time warp because the employee working behind the register didn't seem to have any idea what I was trying to say regarding Fivestars, though he did notice a little trifold card on the front counter mentioning Fivestars. I asked if he could get his manager so I could explain, and even show, him my Fivestars reward. The reward said "already accepted", which he almost thought meant I had redeemed it already, but if that were the case, then it would have said "already redeemed". Given that they've now done away with Fivestars, I'm not too surprised he may have gotten the words "accepted" confused with "redeemed", but luckily, he was happy enough to honor it for me. The employee who assisted me was very helpful, though he did ask me to repeat the topping and the drizzle that I wanted. I chose the Strawberry Cheesecake flavor ice cream with Fruity Pebbles toppings and a Strawberry drizzle on top. Since I had already tried the cookie flavors before, I figured I'd try the fruity flavors this time around. He said he needed about 5 minutes to prepare my waffle bites, which were presented a little different than last time. Last time, I got the Cookie Butter flavor with *Cookie* Crisp and Peanut *Butter* (see what I did there?), and it came in a small plastic takeout container. This one came in a large plastic cup, and I'm thinking the logistics may have changed a ton between my last two visits. I did appreciate how the employee asked if I wanted the waffles on top of or beneath the ice cream before making the waffle bites; I chose on top. He also asked if I'd like powdered sugar on top, to which I agreed. Unfortunately, neither of the waffle bites I got from my last two visits impressed me that much. As a matter of fact, the only thing that impressed me was the strawberry drizzle. Everything else fell kind of flat. While generous in size for the $8 price tag, the Cookie Butter and the Strawberry Cheesecake ice cream didn't really taste like these flavors at all! For whatever reason, the peanut butter didn't add much flavor, but the strawberry drizzle added a lot! How even?! In short, the waffle bites weren't that much of an upgrade from the ice cream scoop that I had on my first visit. I'm willing to say "too much good was no good" here. The waffles themselves were good, but they can only do so much when a flavored ice cream doesn't even taste like that flavor. It's worth noting that on my penultimate visit, when I got the Cookie Butter Waffle Bites, I saw two employees behind the front counter who were ready to take my order. I asked them to explain what the waffle bites were, but it took them a couple of tries to actually understand what I was asking. From what I gathered, the waffle bites were similar to the ice cream scoop I had on my first visit, but with the addition of a warm waffle to supplement the ice cream. However, the step-by-step process remains the same. I was initially told it would take 6 minutes to prepare the Cookie Butter Waffle Bites, but it actually took 15! It seemed like one was training the other or they were trying to gather the ingredients and/or the steps needed to create the waffle bites. After about 10 minutes, I was told by one of the employees they had to make a new batch of waffles because the first batch had burnt. The music was getting pretty loud, so it was hard to hear him after that, but I didn't want to hold up the kitchen prep process any longer. I just said "Alright, sure" so he could continue preparing my order. I do appreciate how he let me know of this so that I'd know the reason for the extended wait, but I wish they weren't so ill-prepared during my visit. So overall, still 3 stars overall. I appreciate the prior partnership with Fivestars, but these missed opportunities have led me to believe that Cravings is just not for me. I doubt I'll try anything else on their ice cream menu, and considering that there are only a few parking spots in their lot, it will take a lot to get me to try their hot chicken. And speaking of lack of parking, I also want to mention that on my second visit, I saw two open parking stalls right in front of Cravings, one on either side of a car. That car had its driver's side wide open so that I couldn't park there. I had to park on the passenger side of that car, which he left much less room for. Perhaps a microcosm of the clientele in this part of town? Everybody deserves a second chance, right? Unfortunately, not everybody can make the most of them, and this is just one example of such. Thanks for the sweet treats Cravings, but I'll get my next one somewhere else.

If you are looking for a unique experience stop by Cravings Ice Cream! The menu is fun and I have…read morenot seen anything like their options before. The ice cream was a 5/5 for me, the toppings, and waffles combined well giving a crunch to the soft ice cream. Free parking is available but limited, and they have outdoor seating with a v for entertainment. I was joyed to see the international snacks available for purchase! I had to buy some oreos. Another perk was the eatery nextdoor!

It really sucks when you have been craving to try this place for so long just to be so let down…read more.. first of all the information that they have on their TikTok's and their Instagram are very confusing and misleading. They had us driving all around town looking for the Compton location... when we finally found it the first red flag was that there was no customers... seeing videos of their milkshakes. Is what intrigued us here. Unfortunately the milkshakes are huge bags of blended ice. They lacked flavor and texture considering they supposedly use Maria's cookies... On the bright side, we ended up also ordering some heart shaped churros, those were pretty big and tasty. Will I ever come back, absolutely not.

If you're looking for churros, you can stop looking and start running over to Churros Don Abel Jr!…read more You'll find that the churros are basically perfect - nice and crispy but not too heavy and dense. Cinnamon sugar mixture is just right and bonus, the churros actually hold their crunch even after a couple hours! I've always really enjoyed Churros Don Abel in East LA so I was pleasantly surprised to find this truck in the Long Beach neighborhood! When I stopped by on the weekend, I found the truck to be at the intersection of Atlantic Ave & E 45th Way (in front of Wells Fargo) The only difference I noted was that at Don Abel Jr, it is made to order which can lead to having to wait a little longer. But regardless definitely worth the wait in my book! Tip: free cafe de olla on the weekends
