    Soooo good! Fruit is fresh. I ordered the pico de gallo. The coconut raspado was yummy! I also tried the Tostitilocos. Everything was really good, service was great, I highly recommend this place. The couple that own this business were very sweet!

    Great little Mexican deli and dessert shop. The prices don't look cheap until you see the size of what you get! Enough to make two meals out of. Or for two people to split if you don't care about leftovers. The people running the place are super nice. The food was delicious and good quality. Highly recommend it.

    Elote

    Yum!! I got the turkey sandwich and elote. And Omgosh! So good. The pickled jalapeno in the sandwich hit the spot! The sandwich was super tasty! And the elote was top notch! This is how you want your elote! Smothered. I had their preparado before and it was good too! I enjoy coming here!

    Me and my Girlfriend had the Lomo Torta and let me tell you really good. We also had fresas con crema and a freshly squeezed lemonade 5

    Amazing food! Terrific service! I ordered the large Fruit Salad & a Banana Split. They have a wonderful selection of deli sandwiches, Mexican favorites, milkshakes, energy/ diet juices, & breakfast bagels. They'll even make you a PB&J sandwich! Warm & welcoming, beautiful store in La Mesa! Definitely check them out!

    A great local spot with a lot of yummy options. Beautiful small space decorated with fruit, butterflies, and warm colors. They have breakfast, lunch, and snacks!

    They made me a small juice.

    I've caught them up charging me twice. They add a "credit card fee" to all purchases, cash, debit, or credit, before you even present payment. I also ordered a small drink, they made me a small drink, but charged me for a large. That particular incident has happened twice, and I caught it only because I checked my receipt before I left. I understand the economy is hard for small business, but there's no excuse for stealing from your customers. Keep your receipts if you go here.

    Came here because we love trying new places. I will say we were not let down. Fresh fruit smoothies ( Strawberry mango & Citrus Breeze) were amazing. We got tamales as well and man oh MAN were they GOOD AS heck! This really made my heart smile knowing that this is a family business that is thriving

    Strawberry smoothie & Mango Pineapple smoothie.  Tastes great, you can tell the fruit is ripe, tastes amazing! Excited to try more items

    First Friday Night? This event should take place every Friday Night! I am not even a Vegan, not…read morethat there is anything wrong with that, but I just like to eat good food, which is certainly something you can find here when you visit. I visited several vendors for eat and to chat and learn about their trade. I certainly learned some and ate some good food like vegan adobada and a terrific vegan croissant. All the vendors were very nice happy to provide Vegan treats. Being held at a parking lot at Grossmont Mall, parking is plentiful and access is easy.

Whelp, I have a solution for that...plan your OWN Vegan Festival and it can be wherever you want it to be! Until then, this is the best thing to happen to the San Diego Vegan scene since...ever! and (2) the lines are too looooong. I get there when it opens and there are zero lines. So, there you have it: problems solved. Either drive to where it is or plan your own and if you don't, get there when it starts. I am gracious and thankful that people are VOLUNTEERING their time to put on this awesome vegan festival and coordinating with the mall and vendors. It's held the first Friday of each month. Follow @veganinsandiego for all the details. See you there!

It's not somewhere I go every day, but I love it as a special-occasion spot. The tea room itself is a lovely, feminine space full of antiques, and their mismatched china is charming. Their tea menu is extensive, high-quality, and always changing. The Afternoon Tea is delicious and surprisingly filling. Each item on the three-tiered tray -- the little crème brûlées, savory scones, finger foods -- is tiny, but there are so many of them that it adds up to a lot of food. I've never managed to finish it. They offer two seatings a day, and the Afternoon Tea is the only one you can reserve. They also have a Cream Tea, smaller and less elaborate but just as tasty, available on a space-available basis. They don't have a kitchen certified for gluten-free, dairy-free, or vegan preparation, but I know from experience that if you call ahead, they'll do their best to accommodate special diets. They also host special holiday events -- a Mother's Day tea, and a season of holiday teas from late November through just after the new year. My one wish: I'd love the ability to reserve something smaller than the Afternoon Tea -- maybe a limited number of Cream Tea reservations, or a new "Parlour Tea" or "Petite Tea" option. Right now the only thing reservable is the big, elaborate option, and I'd love to be able to schedule a smaller treat for myself once in a while. I'm thinking of something I could reserve ahead -- so I could plan a day around it -- but that's smaller and less elaborate than the full Afternoon Tea. Five stars, and a favorite place for celebrating something special.

They ran out of large tea pots so took ours and replaced them with small. They didn't come by to refill them, and as we were a large party of 12... Not all the food seemed that "fresh" and was very scone/incredibly sweet heavy. Maybe I've been to tea in England too many times, but they even sweetened the clotted cream. The sandwiches were lackluster at best. Our reservation was from 11-1:30? As soon as 1 pm hit they were packing up our things. OK. That's fine. But why are other tables allowed to stay longer? Our main waitress was very nice and even helped take photos of our group. Overall: come for the vibes amd the tea.

I got a slice of the strawberry cheesecake almost every single day, at some point they ran out from me buying it all and then I would get the regular cheesecake and have them add the strawberry with cookie crumble on top of it just to get the same taste of the strawberry cheese I always get. I'm telling you this is the best cheesecake you'll ever eat in your entire life. They need to be famous or get like a Michelin star just for this strawberry cheesecake. Whoever the owner is, you knew what you were doing with this cheesecake I'm looking forward to getting some more as soon as you make some more!! Thank you very very much for creating the perfect cheesecake to share with us. I hope you're able to make some more soon you can get all my money just for this cheesecake haha and the workers that work there are awesome as well, they are very kind and welcoming. Thank you!
