Unfortunately, when we got the cake and took it out to thaw before serving, the cake itself was pretty dry and the layers of cream were inconsistent. It didn't feel like the cake I had before, because the first cake we ordered from them was really good! So I was a little disappointed. I'd probably go back for smaller cakes next time because their service is great and we used them before.

They've been a DMV staple for years and have built a solid reputation in the community. They've since moved into a much larger space, but they're still in Laurel and in the same shopping center. The new location is bright, clean, and has plenty of room to browse their cakes and baking supplies. The cake and cupcakes were fresh, moist, and exactly what I expected. Their designs are always top-tier, and more importantly, they taste just as good. The staff was friendly, and my order was ready on time. It's nice to see a longtime local business continue to THRIVE. In my opinion, they are still the "IT GIRL!!!"

The space is large and clean. Parking is easy! This place has potential but they could improve on their customer service and the floor space design. Overall, I'd recommend! Update: I love that business owner, Ms. Laura responded to my comment so promptly. Oof, I know what it's like to be on a short staffed team and I thank y'all for maintaining a decent respectable atmosphere in spite of the circumstances. Despite that, what you got cooking back there, oh it's something good!!! I look forward to visiting again.

I said you have them on your menu, and I pointed them out on the electronic menu board above the register where there's a sign that says "Order here". The cashier couldn't care less. I got the chicken Nachos. The nachos had a white crumbly chees on top, which I assumed to be Cotija cheese, which I am very familiar with. Nope. It was the definitely the dry almost sawdust Kraft pregrated Parmesan "cheese". I thought the chicken would be grilled Pollo. It wasn't. The chicken had the texture of reconstituted freeze dried scrambled eggs. I own a food freeze dryer and I am very familiar with that texture. The yellow cheese sauce was definitely from a can. Skip this place. It's terrible

Pic below is birra tacos, tastes like delicious pot roast, corn tortillas fresh as can be, served with soup. This dish (14.99) and a single generous serving of rice pudding are enough for two meals. Bakery: In response to Yelper Lani M., it's true that the pastries and bread are dry and plain, but they are supposed to be in Guatemala, Mexico, and other countries in the region. The French style pastries and bread you are used to are made with lots of butter, cream, fruit jams, and sugar glazes that make them moist, rich, and strongly flavored. In contrast, Lain American pastries tend to be made without those ingredients to create a dry texture suitable for dipping in coffee and hot chocolate. Making the pastries flavorful would clash with the hot drinks. Think your noni's biscotti and your bubbe's mandelbrot.
