    This place has absolutely delicious birria tacos and consomé. This has been the only thing I've ordered from their menu (there's no other place I know of near me that serves these tacos) but I would also like to try their birria quesadillas. They're listed on the menu as "red tacos" and are about $15 for 3 tacos and the consomé is a separate extra cost. When it comes out fresh, the tacos are super cheesy and yummy. The building is very spacious and doesn't get too busy, so I always get to grab a table. In the middle of the restaurant, they display their desserts and pastries such as flan and alfajores. The restaurant is located in the Park and Shop surrounded by a lot of different Asian cuisines, dessert shops, and a grocery store. If you try parking close to the restaurant, that is the area that is the most congested, we always park in the back of the building.

    There's a fire new chef here that is bringing authentic Guadalajara and Jalisco style cooking to Concord and I highly recommend his menu. There are some amazing dishes with spices from Guadalajara and recipes that are inspired by the chef's grandmothers cooking and they were all so good. If Guy Fieri is living in Flavor Town, then this new spot called Izcalli is Flavor KINGDOM. They have Elote, Red Tacos, Birria, and Stir Fried Birria Noodles which own it's own was fire but add in some of that extra spice and it's even more amazing! I had a hard time deciding on what to get, so I basically got it all. For dessert, I had a yummy ice cream with a short bread cookie on the bottom and I need to have more! Please come check this spot out and support local businesses! It was amazing!

    The beef sandwich had crunchy bread, but the sauce was salty. Otherwise, it was a good sandwich. Got some cookies and bread to go. They have so many but mostly dulce in the middle. Alfajores cookies, which they speciaize. They have corn cookies, which are gluten-free. Nice people.

    Chilaquiles con mole - chicken mole, onions, sour cream, and fresh avocado with beans and eggs. Scrumptious!!!

    Delectable alfajores at your service! The name speaks for itself; this house of tasty Peruvian cookies is one that should not be overlooked. I stopped by to pick up a couple of alfajores and ended up staying for breakfast. How about that? The breakfast was scrum-diddily-umptious by the way. The interior is super spacious! I walked in and couldn't believe how roomy it was. They have a small bakery section where you can grab fresh bread and other pastries. On the other side of the bread are grab and go alfajores. When I walked up to the ordering counter, the sweet young man was very helpful in answering all of my questions. This is a family owned and operated business which is always nice to see around these parts. I noticed that they were offering some breakfast and lunch items, so I decided to try out a breakfast plate. I ordered their chilaquiles con mole, chai latte, and three of their alfajores (coconut, pecan, and powdered sugar). I asked for the breakfast to be made for there, but they accidentally made it for to-go. No biggie since it was still delish, but I really wanted to get a nice picture of it (you know us Yelpers be!). The chilaquiles were friggin' BOMB! They feature chicken mole, onions, sour cream, fresh avocado, beans, eggs, and tortilla chips. The chicken mole was rich and flavorful. They came covered in sour cream and super fresh avocado! YUM! Loved, looooved, LOVED their alfajores! They literally melted in my mouth after the first bite. My absolute favorite was their coconut one. I love coconut but usually avoid anything that has coconut shreds because I'm not a fan of the consistency. However, THAT baby was fantastic! Come to MAMA! Those coconut alfajores can get it all day, every day! Their chai tea was a huge miss, however. First off, it's powder based and it tasted like it didn't have any flavor whatsoever. I can't really fault them on this too much though since it's not really a "café" per se. I'm seriously craving some of their coconut alfajores now... damnit! So excited to have this house of goodies in the 'Cord now. Looking forward to many more glutinous visits here soon.

    Regular alfajor (powdered sugar) + coconut alfajor. Chocolate ones on bottom.  The powder sugar got disturbed a bit due to travel.

    Happened to be in the area so stopped by about 10am on a Tuesday. No one else was in there but that was good since I had to get back to work. I was greeted by the friendly cashier and asked he asked if I wanted a sample of their coconut alfajor - very delicious. Ended up buying 9 alfajores (coconut, regular, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate). The cholate ones cost more than regular and coconut. They also had a pecan and white chocolate alfajores options, they even had mini versions. All my coworkers enjoyed them and I was so happy to find a good place. Would definitely come back to buy them.

    This place is a must try!!! I was so excited when this place opened. Their alfajor cookies are very tasty, and freshly bake. They are soft and creamy like a butter cookie but better. They are not extremely sweet but with a lot of flavor. They also have other kind of cookies with white chocolate, milk chocolate, and more. We have tried several and they were all amazing (I couldn't pick my favorite.) I will definitely come back. They also have breakfast and this delicious sandwiches with home made bread. The owner and staff are very friendly and welcoming. They go out of their way to please their costumers and they offer samples as well. If you are in the area, stop by this gem. You won't regret it.

    This place have great cookies . I couldn't decide which to get so I bought a variety of cookies. The Alfajores cookies are baked fresh and tasted like butter cookies but much better, it had a smooth and a light cream in the center which gives it a perfect combination and not to sweet. I also tried their best seller sandwich which is the Barbacoa Tortas and just pour the spicy sauce over it, it was cooked just right, taste great:) Friendly service. Will definitely come here again:)

    Variety of alfajores

    I only stop by for the alfajores, shortbread sandwich cookies filled with delectable dulce de leche, dusted with powdered sugar. Casa Del Alfajor offers several varieties of these cookies along with a few breakfast and grocery items. The alfajores are a South American treat and they are delicious. Casa Del Alfajor is located at Park 'N' Shop closer to Joann Fabrics. It's a big space that could be better utilized. There is indoor seating if you want to enjoy coffee with your cookies, breakfast, or tortas and salads. The center glass displays house the cookies that you can choose yourself. They provide trays and tongs for your convenience. Along the sides of the bakery they have breads, random canned foods, and vinegar for purchase.

    Red tacos!

    This place is delicious I do recommend you try it!. So much delicious flavors and the employees are very nice.

    Marlon O.

    Did not try anything else but the cookies YET. This place is a Mexican/South American bakery/restaurant if I remember correctly but anyways the cookies were great. Not bad at all. Walked in expecting different types of pan and empanadas and such but was pleasantly surprised with the cookies. They're soft and not too sweet. The different toppings actually made a huge difference which was surprising since the cajeta and cookie itself didn't change but ultimately it was a nice little snack to have while out in the Concord area.

    Variation of Alfajores from my visit today.

    This location is usually busy whenever we visit, which speaks to how popular it is. The staff has…read morealways been friendly, helpful, and willing to assist. My only concern is that the internet seems to go down fairly often. We've experienced it several times over the past few months. Other than that, the overall experience has been very positive.

    What Happened to the Choco Bun?…read more Plenty of free parking. When you walk in, grab a tray and window shop all the pastries. They individually wrap these so grab what you want and place it on your tray. Once you're finished, cruise up to the counter. Would I Come Back? Yes, I keep coming back. I use to come back for the Choco Bun, but if they've changed the recipe at all locations, I'll only be coming back for the Milk Bun and Nougat. Their Signature Item: Egg tarts are their signature item. If you've ever been to an Asian party, someone almost always brings a box of egg tarts from 85-Degrees. But on today's visit. Well, just look at the photo. Someone stepped away from the oven for about 6 minutes too long. Choco Bun ($2.55, Grade D): The Choco Bun has been my absolute go-to for years--the closest location to me is usually the South Sacramento store and I tell everyone they have to get it whenever they visit an 85°C. Unfortunately, it's been about 8 months since my last trip, and the Choco Bun is no longer something to write home about. Milk Bun ($2.05, Grade A+): If you've ever had their Milk Bun with the custard filling, the Choco Bun used to be very similar in texture. Now, it's flat with super dry edges. Not good at all. Luckily, I also bought a Milk Bun (my usual second favorite), and by default, it's now my number one because the Choco Bun was a complete bust. It's so fluffy and sweet. Melts in your mouth. Strawberry Banana Smoothie / no boba ($5.85, Grade F): It was incredibly artificial-tasting--nothing real about it. I only made it through a quarter of it before throwing the rest into the garbage. My fault for hoping for a "just picked" fresh fruit taste, but this was honestly one of the worst smoothies I've ever had. Nougat ($9.60, Grade A+): The bagged Nougat candy is fantastic. It's soft, gooey, and packed with what I'm guessing are pieces of pistachio. Delicious, but a fair warning if you have dental issues: these will wreak havoc on your teeth. It's not quite as sticky as a Starburst, but it could definitely pull out a denture! Bottom Line: The staff here is friendly, and there are still a few standout 5-star items that make a visit worth it (the Milk Bun and the Nougat). However, the disappointing recipe change to the Choco Bun and the absolute miss on the smoothie knock this down to a 3-star experience overall.

As if the shape of the Styrofoam changes the action? And I'm not a baker, at least not a professional one, but something feels off about what feels like the refusal to help me. And it's not like I am looking for free service, I'm willing to pay, but I'm not willing to pay cake prices for icing on Styrofoam. Saying no, as a business is OK, I'm all for it. But customer service needs a serious rebranding. I have never had a good in person/over the phone experience. Their food speaks for itself, but the customer service skills really takes away the value of a local business that has been around for years.

As a customer, I wasn't expecting a refund. I simply hoped they would stand behind their product and provide good customer service. What disappointed me the most wasn't just the drink it was how the situation was handled. A small gesture, such as remaking the drink or allowing an exchange, could have turned a negative experience into a positive one and earned a loyal returning customer. Instead, I left feeling that customer satisfaction wasn't a priority. Sadly, because of this experience, I won't be returning, and I can't recommend this place to my friends, family, or clients.

While we both really enjoyed the food - both of which were recommended by the employee - the coffee was not good at all. Pro: the avocado toast that we ordered had a curried chickpea salad on top and it had a delicious flavor. That was probably my favorite bite! We also shared half order of the blueberry waffle, and it had a type of granola on top that provided some really great textures. The food certainly impressed me. Con: Both of us felt like the coffee had none of the flavor that it was supposed to have (we both ordered the cardamom maple iced latte with macadamia nut milk) and instead, it just tasted like milk. It didn't even really have a coffee forward flavor. Since this is a coffee shop that was a pretty big disappointment. Overall, we enjoyed the food and service, but would skip the coffee.
