a sandwich wrapped in foil
Unknown U.

The Mexican bread is decent and over priced. On two different occasions I've gone to order a bagel with cream cheese and both were a let down. They barely put any cream cheese and the second time, they also added jelly which I didn't ask for. Basically a waste of money because my kids didn't want to eat it like that. The bacon and egg cheese is more bread than anything. You're better off going to a bodega.

This place generally has hood reviews so I was convinced to come here. I'm currently living in Brooklyn from Texas & was craving pan dulce. I've had a lot of trouble finding any comparable Mexican establishments in NY but since the area was sunset I figured I had a good shot. I was sorely disappointed. This place doesn't have a big selection of pan dulcet bu it did offer my favorites : concha, cuernos, cachetada. I was even bamboozled into purchasing a big canela version of a concha.I took these home & was horrified. To begin with the concha tasted stale even though they assured me it was baked that day. It certainly tasted differently than what I'm accustomed to. The cuerno on the other hand wasn't as stake but tasted different than other cuernos I have tasted. In the same manner the cachetada or the bread with butter sugar smear tasted stale. Even the smear which is usually the best part was tasteless. Furthermore, the next day all of the bread was hard as a rock. I did ask where the owners were from because of course areas do make them differently. I for one am not a fan of D.F or surrounding areas type of style of bread , the best pan dulce I have tasted hands down are from bakers Jalisco. I've yet to find good pan dulce in Brooklyn but I'll continue on my search. I didn't try any of the food items so perhaps come here for those.

I really wanted to love this place, especially because it has great energy and the staff is super friendly -- but I just didn't find it to be as good as other panaderias in the neighborhood. Both the tamales and baked goods were pretty dry and unremarkable. I know some people *swear* by their tamales, so I'll be giving them another try at some point, but have no been impressed so far.

Coconut shavings on top with vanilla cream filling inside. Just the right amount not too much not too little.

Love getting my morning ice coffee here and evening. Great tasting coffee, always goes great with a nice sweet bread. Huge selection of sweet bread always can switch it up. If you are having a hard time deciding ask someone for some help and they would gladly recommend something. This time I picked up a small sweet bread with coconut shavings on top with a small layer of vanilla cream filling inside, just the perfect amount. If you like vanilla cream try the churros they are great trust me. If you haven't gone next door to grab some tamales I suggest you do. My favorite are the salsa verde. . A small amount of green salsa with melted cheese inside which is amazing. They tend to get sold out so don't be disappointed if you are not able to get one. Just ask when the next batch will come out trust me so worth the wait.

3 Tamales & Mexican Bread

Lemme say this one time, YOU HAVE TO BE THERE EARLY TO GET TAMALES. They go FAST. And it's because they are one of the best around. Don't slack, wake up and go get them. I love that the owner is always around giving a hand and helping out too. Shows alot about the guy and establishment. I can't speak for every food item here but the Mexican Bread, coffee and Tamales are worth the trip. BRING CASH for a quick and easy transaction.

I was eating my breakfast this morning when I found this hair in there salsa verde tamale. This is absolutely ridiculous and gross; I absolutely don't recommend buying here!

The Rosca de Reyes from this bakery is excellent!. The right amount of sugar and fresh/dried fruits. It's fresh and deliciousy baked every day.. The service was fantastic. I bought 3 for my clients and friends. It was a complete success of a Fiesta de Reyes.

Radio Bakery... is perfection. I completely understand the line…read more I first ordered the heirloom tomato & feta sandwich, which was unbelievable. It is so clear that they use incredibly high-quality ingredients and carefully curate each component, which is exactly why everything comes together in such an elevated way. The tomatoes reminded me of the ones I grew in my garden during California summers as a teenager. Perfectly salted, layered over soft, not-too-tart feta. The focaccia was made with beautiful olive oil and, while a bit chewier than I usually prefer, gave the sandwich a satisfying bite. I had to close my eyes while eating it just to savor it. The chocolate cherry almond croissant... wow. Such a creative combination, and it did not disappoint. Soft, buttery, and filled with a sour cherry compote that reminded me of a cherry cordial from a box of chocolates. 5/5. Hainsley, who helped me, was exceptionally lovely. Everyone even in line was very nice, the vibes were awesome. I'll definitely be back to try the spicy tofu sandwich and the heirloom tomato tart!

Stopped by on a Saturday afternoon and noticed the line was surprisingly short, so we decided to…read morehop in. We only waited about 10 minutes before it was our turn to order. While they didn't have their full selection available, there were still plenty of pastries to choose from. We ended up getting the vanilla kouign amann and the chocolate PB&J croissant. The kouign amann was flaky, buttery, and beautifully caramelized. The chocolate PB&J croissant was easily our favorite. It was filled with rich, decadent chocolate and a layer of jelly that balanced everything out without making it overly sweet. My significant other hasn't stopped talking about it since! We're already looking forward to coming back to try more.
