My…read morefamily and I frequent the deli and pasticceria, only going to the actual restaurant if we have a big group. The pasticceria is sooo cute and decorated like a little cafe in Italy. I appreciate the floors and decoration, they 100% lean into the Italian culture. The service is always great, everyone smiles and makes sure your selection is to your liking. I've gotten coffee, macaroons, gelato, everything from here and they never disappoint. It's always a great time, especially meeting friends or just grabbing some good sips on the go. I had a gelato with one scoop of this raspberry sorbet and another scoop mango, I loved the fruitiness and texture. It's a bit pricey which knocks down a star, but otherwise a lifelong favorite. P.S. I love the parking and that ITS FREE.

Located right next to Cossetta Alimentari,), the Pasticceria is a nostalgic delight. Chock-full of…read moredelicious dessert delights (and no small amount of charm), the store absolutely took me back to the pastry shops I remember from when I visited Italy. Think tile, dark wood, display cases full of beautiful desserts, and brass. With great staff and smiles all around, the Pasticceria feels and tastes like the good old days. I highly recommend.

We stopped here on Father's Day as part of a donut tour my kiddo put together, and I'm so glad this…read morewas our first stop -- holy moly, these are some of the best brioche donuts I've had. My husband and I loved how lightly sweetened both the cream and the dough were. My tween was a little indifferent and would've preferred something non-cream filled with more sugar, but that's a tween for you. It's a smaller space with some seating, but the seating doesn't have windows, so we opted to walk across and enjoy our donuts while wandering the farmers market instead -- honestly a perfect way to eat them. If you're a donut lover, put this place on your list even if you have to park and walk a bit. Worth it.

SUPER cute coffee shop with a very impressive menu of breakfast fare. I got a breakfast called…read more"Hashbrown Bake Platter" whose name undersells itself; the potato part was a delicious, savory cake with hash browns, cheese, bacon, and sausage in an ideal ratio. It also came with perfectly done scrambled eggs and toast. I got a unique latte as well; I asked the barista for her favorite and wound up with a raspberry & dark chocolate latte that had a surprising shock of bitterness. It was great. You will probably really like the ambience. It appears to have been built out of a lovely Victorian home in Dayton's Bluff, and there is plenty of upstairs seating including cute tables on the landings. There is also a very green patio. Friendly service tops it all off nicely. Their only not-open day is Tuesday, so bear that in mind. There is neighborhood street parking which you may have to hunt around a bit for. I really think you'll enjoy hanging out here!

I managed to snag the LAST cinnamon roll! I am taking the fact it was the last in to account. It wasn't the freshest - and an outside corner piece - so it was a bit dry and hard. However, it turns out the roll is just an easy way to get the frosting in your face. Omg. Delicious, buttery amazing frosting. (Which they did frost at the time of purchase). The place is small but they have an upstairs as well as a nice garden patios.

This was my first time going to Bullvino's after yeeeears of hearing nothing but great things and I…read morecan say everyone is right. We just happened to go during restaurant week which I didn't even know, so that was a plus. We basically got to try the full menu minus premium items I think like lamb and ribeye; it also came with a dessert sample. This place is so yummy! The service is great, staff are very friendly. We were asked if we wanted anything specifically to come around a couple times which was nice. My friend is from Salvado, Bahia, Brazil and enjoyed the food so much. She was one of the many people who raved to me about this place. Many staff speak Portuguese and/or Spanish so she was having a blast with that as well. The atmosphere is very upscale but chill. I was so stuffed after just a couple plates but it was still worth the money. All food was fresh and beautifully prepared. I also think this may be more authentic than some of the other Brazilian bbq places in the metro area because they don't serve chimichurri, which I think is technically Argentinian maybe. I did miss that like that have at fogo de chão, but they have vinagrete (super authentic to Brazil) and an amazing spicy Hmong sauce which I was surprised to see. They also offer Hmong sausage which I'm assuming is the closest thing to the toscana sausage you would typically find in Brazil. The chocolate and três leches cakes at the end were amazing! So sweet and delicious. I would just come and pick up slices of cake. We got them to-go but they were devoured before we left the restaurant. I highly recommend checking out Bullvinos Churrascaria.

My lady took me here for date night and it was quite the let down. She tried making reservations…read moreonline and there was some issues so she called in and said we would be there between 745-8 and they said they could accommodate us. What we didnt know at the time was that they closed at 830. I believe this was a big part of what went wrong that night. At Bullvinos, you pay one fee and you get salad bar access and they come to your table with cuts meat until you're full. So many things went wrong this night. The waiter came over and asked what we wanted to drink, we asked for water and he poured us water from a bottle and he never came back to the table after that. We didnt know that the water cost money until someone later asked if we wanted another bottle or just tap water and the bottle was on the bill. They usually bring over bread and mashed potatoes and after being there a while, I had to ask for this and the bread wasnt fresh. The salad bar was closing shortly after we got there and staff made an announcement "the salad bar will be closing in 5 minutes so if you want something, go get it". I understood, but it just came off rude. They did come over with the meat very quickly, like almost lining up at our table and thats when I checked to see what time they closed. They didnt technically rush us and they asked if we had any requests for meat before they closed. For this type of restaurant, you probably want to have more than 30 minutes and I wish they had mentioned it over the phone when we called. I only had cuts of meat and it was all pretty good, didn't really get a chance for the salad bar though. For my first time there, this was a terrible experience and I had high hopes for them.

Either way, it was delicious. I noticed that they have food, including tamales, on their menu. I will see about trying the tamales at another visit. This is a great neighborhood gem that gets you cool on a hot day.
