    This place is super new! So new that it had only been opened for three days when we decided to stop in for dinner. The inside has 5 dinner tables and they are also going to have a mini mart as well. We sat down ourselves as there was no one manning the front when we walked in. There was one other party dining in besides us. The menus were dropped off right away and we were excited to see what yummy-ness we could find. I really wanted a Tiky soda as it was listed on the menu. Unfortunately when I ordered it though, they didn't have it at the moment. So I went with a Mexican soda. The server was a mess. He was definitely new at this and was all over the place. We rarely got checked on and there was a few times we had to track him down .he was pretty friendly though. We ended up ordering two chilles rellenos for $8.99, one chicken salad for $6, one chicken pepian for $10.99, and one order of their stuffed plantains for $5. The food was freshly made as we had a full view of the kitchen. When brought out, the presentation of the plate was really nice. The tortillas are handmade and they tasted just like my moms, yummy! My stuffed chilies were pretty good but the beans on the plate were a little too dry. My friend who ordered the chicken pepian enjoyed the flavor of it, but the chicken skin is what grossed him out. Pepian is a Guatemalan dish that is pretty similar to mole. The chicken salad was good and the chicken was perfectly seasoned. We were told that they had ranch, sour cream, and or salsa for the salad. We went with ranch and a few minutes later were told they didn't have any... This place definitely has potential! I want to say that maybe they were a mess since they are super new! I will definitely stop by again in a few weeks to see if things have gotten better! I'm so glad there is a Guatemalan restaurant in town now!

    We are from out of town and I am Guatemalan so I was excited to try the place out, hoping it was going to be authentic and was very pleased!

    Finally stopped into this bakery when I was on the east side of town. There isn't great signage but…read morethere's lots of street parking nearby and the maps takes you right to it. Walking in the girls working that day were so friendly and helpful. I ordered an assortment of pastries. Cinnamon roll, strawberry puff pastry, chocolate chip cookie, cupcake, strawberry cream pastry and pistachio cream filled pastry. Prices are fair and there's so many options to choose from it's a bit overwhelming because I'm indecisive and want to try everything lol The pastries were all fresh and the ingredients were as well. The cream fillings in the pastries were fluffy and light. I wish the strawberry choux bun had a stronger strawberry flavor as it really tasted like just cream as well as the pistachio pastry. I'll have to try a mini pie and other goods next time I'm around!

    Went in to give this place a try after reading some reviews. Probably won't drive out of the way to…read morestop here again. We ordered a few different things to give a fair review, and honestly overall this place is just ok. Not horrible, just not that great. We had.. *sausage roll * ham and Swiss *cinnamon roll (regular) *cookies and cream cup cake *raspberry pop tart *chocolate chip cookie Sausage roll pastry dough was good, but the meat inside was not very flavorful. Ham and Swiss, the ham was just a single thin slice of deli meat. The cinnamon roll also missing something... maybe more sugar and better quality cinnamon? Perhaps salt in the dough? I'm not sure how they prepare theirs but definitely looked better than it tasted. Raspberry pop tart was my favorite item! Husband had no complaints on the cupcake.

This beautiful little shop feels like stepping into another world the moment you walk in. It's family run, and you can truly feel the love and creativity that goes into everything they make. From cupcakes and tortes to cookies and so much more, every display case looked amazing. They even had gluten-free options, which was great to see. Gabriel welcomed us in and took the time to walk us through all the delicious treats they had to offer. His kindness and enthusiasm made the experience even more special. Since it was our first visit, we were treated to complimentary shortbread cookies -- we chose lavender and rose -- and both were absolutely delicious. We ended up taking home a strawberry brownie, the tuxedo cupcake with dark chocolate and buttercream frosting, a vanilla cupcake, and the limoncello cupcake. Every single dessert was wonderful and beautifully made. This is the kind of bakery you instantly know you'll return to again and again. We will definitely be back!

    Unbelievable cakes and pastries. Short bread flavors are floral and fun too ! This family owned and…read moreoperated bakery has some of the best baked items I've had in Mesa. Hands down. I've been here 3 times in 2 weeks after discovering it and plan to go again in the next couple days. There's so much try! They even do high tea, which is a treat to find! The decor is unique and gives service to their heritage and personally curated feel. No doubt there is something to enjoy for everyone here. I'm not sure about Vegan or gluten free options.

It was a pleasure to enjoy such a high-quality product. Thank you once again for your assistance and for providing such delicious treats.

We've only been to the one in Old Town Mesa, by the fine art theater. Just glad its not next door, because I'd start living there! Not to sound like a hoity toity food snob, (kind of like when someone says they are not a "conspiracy theorist," but then they go into great lengths about conspiracies -- I'll be a snob here. Their pastries and breads are next level. They aren't just baking an excellent product (which would be enough to make me happy in area that lacks artisan bakers) they are "crafting" baking art. I hate to compare to the European Bakery craft (because there are plenty of great American bakers) but Europe does have that as a trademark (at least France, Switzerland, Germany, and Italy.) If all I ate eat each day was one of their croissants, it would be enough - theirs just flake away from the outside, and then a tender airy sourdough inside. Pain au Chocolate - excellent. Croissant - excellent. Oh -- Chocolate Chuck cookie - unbelievable. Best I've ever had. Chewy, buttery, crunchy. Not caky. I'll be heading back for sourdough bread and other goodies. No photos - I eat the goods too fast.

I know they're vegetarian, but I wanted to double check with her. She responds as "vegetarian means no meat, right"? All employees working at a food establishment should know what vegetarian means. This was quite baffling to hear. I asked her for a new slice because the one that was out on display was visibly burned and the other slice was touching pepperoni from the meat pizza. As mentioned, I'm a vegetarian. Therefore, I could not have either one of those slices. She proceeds to say that's how the pizzas are. They are slightly burned because they are so sourdough. While I can accept this answer, I do not accept the fact that she would not be willing to give me another slice as a paying customer. She insensitively said she can't give me a new one until all the old slices are taken up. She mentioned that this is their procedure. According to this, they are saying that they will not provide a proper product unless the old, damaged product, or unacceptable by the customer is used up first. If this is their business model, then it is apparent they do not value customer service. This business should have the competence to understand that if they want to sell a product, they cannot sell it in a condition that the customer is not satisfied with. Most importantly, being a vegetarian, they should have the sensitivity to understand that if a slice is touching the meat product then they cannot consume it. And again, the employee completely disregarded my health and religious beliefs by not accommodating me. You usually won't encounter problems when you're just trying to buy bread. However, it reflects on the business's employees greatly when there is a problem and they do not value customer service by resolving or accommodating the customer's satisfaction. I will be switching to Noble exclusively. Especially since it's so readily available at the farmers markets and stores.
