    I had been following Joel on Instagram for a while wanting to try his churros. His arrival time at his site can vary somewhat so when you see he posts on his instagram stories, then you know for sure he's there and ready. So it's worth following him on instagram to see when he posts on his IG stories at joelv.churros or Joel's Churros. His churros are so delicious and I haven't had churros this good since having them in Mexico for Christmas as a kid. His churros are the most authentic ones I've had personally on this side of the border. He's set up in the parking lot of Viva Supermarket to the right front entrance of the lot. Joel is under a white tent in this part of the parking lot and makes the churros fresh to order. You can order them with fillings (condensed milk, strawberry, or caramel). My favorite fillings wise was the caramel but, the churros are plenty sweet and delicious on their own without fillings. Joel is very generous with how many churros he puts in the bag, so pricing wise it's a very good deal. He also offers services to cater to events. His churros are the best I've personally had that aren't from Mexico. For forms of payment he accepts cash, zelle, or Apple Pay.

    I'm spoiling this best-kept secret as a way to support local small business! Authentic, deliciosos churros can be acquired at Joel's Churros (@joelv.churros on Instagram) street stand out in front of Viva Supermarket (Marysville Blvd), evenings 6:30-9:00 PM. Look for the white folding canopy! The sun goes down later in the summertime if you're worried about the area/location and still need your sugar fix...or bring a friend or two along to partake in the churrific cinnasweetness. Regular sugar-only churros (sencillo) are cheaper ($2 each) than the filled kind (con relleno), and filled ones run about $3 each. I got one each of the strawberry (fresa), caramel (cajeta), and sweet condensed milk (lechera). The way these churros are made reminds me of the Churros Union De Tula truck that used to be in Woodland, where you could get the whole 9-foot churro "roll" for $9. There was a bit of a line/wait on my first visit but man, it is worth the wait. Perfect thickness and crisp crunch outside, soft and warm inside. The strawberry filling was my favorite! Too bad they don't have chocolate as an option, I'd be all over that. I didn't catch a photo of his phone number, but he also does catering for events! He accepts cash, Zelle, and Apple Pay. Someday in a perfect world, there would be a standalone churrería on every corner...until then, I'm grateful that Joel drives all the way down from Yuba City to set up shop and share these wonderful sweet street treats with the residents of Sactown.

    Wish I got a better photo, but they were delicious!

    Delicious churros!! We booked Joel to provide churros for dessert for our smaller wedding, and it was the best decision ever! He made the churros on-site and stuffed them with lechera (sweetened condensed milk), cajeta (caramel), & strawberry sauce. He was there for about an hour, and it was enough to feed all of our 50 guests. Everyone still raves about the churros! Thank you so much Joel! 100% recommend trying his churros and booking for your wedding/events! :)

    We were really craving churros after dinner with some friends and on the hunt for the best churro spot and stumbled upon Joel's Churros! We loved it so much that we decided to come back a week later, and after being blown away by the quality, we asked him to help cater an event for us. It was great working with him while coordinating for our event, and it was a huge hit and surprise for our friends, since they know just how much I love churros! Everyone really enjoyed choosing from different fillings and especially enjoyed eating them. His churros are perfect - with a crispy exterior and fluffy center, you'll always want to come back for more!

Creamy's by Cayla Jordan, now situated at the ICE BLOCKS, is well stocked with mini cheesecakes, cookies and ice cream sandwiches. As soon as you walk in, you're greeted by a friendly employee. You'll find the well stocked coolers filled with rotating flavors of decadent cheesecakes, an inviting atmosphere with cool decor and other tasty treats. There were several mini cheesecakes flavors to choose from. I chose 6 flavors for $20. My favorite flavor were the biscoff and crème brûlée. They even wrapped a complimentary red bow and gave me coupon to try a delicious cookie for FREE during my next visit. Don't forget to support Cayla, our local real estate agent and mom-entrepreneur. Pick up some delicious cheesecakes for your mom for mother's day and enjoy!

My eye was first drawn to the churro, I haven't been able to have one in years, I was so excited. It was everything I ever wanted in a churro. Crispy outside, fluffy inside, and coated with cinnamon sugar. I could have polished off a dozen of them! The apple fritter was also on my must try list. I grew up loving apple fritters and since having to go GF, it is my most missed donut-adjacent treat. This one was smaller than a normal one, but that was fine because I could actually enjoy it without it being too big. Perfectly fluffy with apple pieces and spiced just right, it was delicious. The cruellers were nice and crispy on the outside and just sweet enough. Glazed with chocolate or regular icing, they are a perfect donut. I have recommended this spot to others that are GF, they need to experience the joy of a prefect GF donut!

Both tasted very good but slightly different without dairy. Otherwise, I really enjoyed the flavor and textures. My friend ended up with the white chocolate macadamia nut cookie which was also great. I love a crunch or different texture mixed in. She did mention that the Rocky Road tasted a bit off because of the lack of dairy and the texture was a bit unusual. The staff were polite and patient and the place didn't seem that crowded for a Thursday around dinner time. I suppose with Ginger Elizabeth's and Rick's Dessert Diner all on the same strip, there is a lot of competition for dessert places here. We were happy to try something new. Everything was fairly clean and there was plenty of bar seating as well as a few tables. I believe there were also tables outside.

The moment you walk in, the retro 1950s diner ambience immediately transports you back to classic Americana dessert culture. They've apparently been serving Sacramento for over 37 years! - Hot Fudge Sundae -- made with Gunther's vanilla & chocolate ice cream, topped with whipped cream, pralines, and a candied cherry; beautifully presented with warm hot fudge drizzled all over - Lemon Raspberry Cake -- moist sponge cake layered with lemon, raspberry, and whipped cream; balanced sweetness with buttercream-coated sides The red booth seating and vintage Americana decor really complete the nostalgic vibe. Service was friendly and quick, and the overall ambience was cozy, retro, and diner-themed. Rick's Dessert Diner definitely feels one-of-a-kind, I'll have to stop by again next time I'm passing through Sacramento.

" He was making small talk with her and he asked her if we were her family. She asked him which one he thought was her "PARENT." He replied that he thought I was her grandmother. I'm 54 years old and have a 30-year-old daughter and my niece is 25. I don't even know how that would be possible. I was right next to them sitting at a table with my brother so of course I heard, and I got up and I said what's up with this grandma stuff, and he said that he answered her question and told her that he thought I was her grandmother. Honestly, I felt completely insulted like you're not supposed to say things like that to your customers or even about your customers. I felt myself getting ready to go completely off on him, so I walked away and went to sit back down. He had the audacity to tell my niece some people can't handle the truth. It's so baffling to me that a manager would say something like that. I know employees sometimes say inappropriate things, but he should know better!! This was supposed to be a nice family outing and he ruined my night. Luckily I have confidence in myself and his comment didn't give me a complex or make me like I look old. It was also disappointing because I went in there specifically to get an eclair, which is normally a decent size. For some reason, it was the half of the size and the same price.

Café de Olla is a classic Mexican coffee that offers a well-balanced blend of coffee, cinnamon, and brown sugar, often served with heavy cream to give you a comforting and energizing boost. Traditionally, it's even served at funerals as families celebrate the passing of a loved one into a better life. It's meant to be warm, rich, and meaningful. However, the café's version was far from that. The counter staff overpromised their Café de Olla, but it tasted terrible. When I asked to switch to a mocha because of how bad the coffee was, their friendly smile quickly disappeared. They didn't offer a replacement or try to make it right. Instead, I had to pay again for the mocha just to finish the coffee break with my wife. Very disappointing experience. It was an easy decision not to come back. If you're going to sell poor-quality coffee, at least stand behind it and fix the problem instead of charging customers twice. Promotes well in facebook- HELL NO not again.
