I paid like $8 for a carne asada burrito to-go, on my lunch break, that they forgot to put carne asada on. Of course, I noticed it after I've returned to work with no intention of driving back for a new burrito. Basically just a rice bean and cheese burrito. Disappointed for my first time there. read more

We love the salsa here and have been making the trip for years to get that. Do check when it was made as we got a couple large containers a few weeks ago and it was bad (bubbly fermented) the next day. Unfortunately they were uninterested to know this when we returned and do not stand behind the product. Still we bought more since we like it so much. read more

Fantastic breakfast burritos. Build your own style. I get sausage and chorizo with scrambled eggs, Pico, bell peppers, cheese and potatoes.

Place has terrible service and way under staffed. 1hr. wait for a breakfast burrito. Waste of time.

Where else can you get donuts and a chili verde burrito just a short walk from the beach? Good portion size, delicious, fairly priced.

I always purchase Spanish pastry and Pain Dolce from this baker...excellent and authentic. Always fresh

We've stopped by Reynaldo's before while we were in downtown Carpinteria and just browsed it, since we didn't have time to shop. This time around, it was hard to resist. It was crowded, but the pastries selection was great: from your regular European ones- danishes, etc, to American classics - pies, cookies to Mexican faves like we had in Mexico - Pan Dulce, seasonal ones - shaped like avocado-s (since the festival was going on), some specialties for Halloween and Dias de Los Muertos masterpieces, everything you need, want and don't know it's possible. Beautiful presentation, great deals, nice customers service.We couldn't resist and got a bunch of cookies, some we didn't know what they were or how they'd be. For the price, it was worth risking. And we loved everything we got. Tasty, different, fun, exciting. They serve teas, coffee, various teas, Mexican food if you need a quick meal. Reynaldo's is a great bakery with Latino twist. Check it out if you're in the area and need a snack or some nice treats to go. You'll have a hard time picking and choosing. Oh,well.. hard to resist. read more

Very rarely do they have short staff, ifvthey do it's on a Sunday for some odd reason?, Maybe they go to church!? Other then that great burritos?, but the best chorizo and egg burrito I have had in Santa Bárbara is El Sítio on De La Vina street great there read more

I would say the food was so so there. Pretty mediocre Mexican food, and the flan was so bad I had to throw it out.. there's a lot of Mexican restaurants in Carpinteria to choose from , so I would look around more if I had more time... read more

We were married in Carpinteria this past March. As we were going through the process of lining up all of the vendors necessary to hold our dream wedding, we stopped by Reynaldo's for some cake tasting. This would be the best decision we made! Reynaldo's not only had the greatest tasting cake we have ever had, but they were more than willing to work with us to help cover all of our needs. The quality of their cakes are second to none. In addition to this they are able to customize their cakes to fit all of your needs. Their day of service was phenomenal too. They delivered our cake to the venue on time. Our guests were thoroughly impressed by the cake. To say the cake was a hit would be a huge understatement. Everyone raved about how delicious our wedding cake was. Many of our guests requested us to provide them with Reynaldo's contact information. I think it's safe to say Reynaldo's earned multiple new customers on our wedding night. On top of their phenomenal service and amazing product quality, Reynaldo's was reasonably priced. From an all around service standpoint, there is not a better place to do business with than Reynaldo's. We highly recommend Reynaldo's for all of your wedding cake needs. read more

We got married in July of 2022 in Santa Barbara, Ca. We asked a local bakery in Carpinteria, Reynaldo's Bakery, to make our wedding cake and our experience with them was nothing short of incredible. Aside from our wedding cake, we also ordered sheet cakes for our guests. Rey and his team are very passionate about their craft and care about their customers. We had a consultation with Rey to explain our vision (simple yet elegant, white cake with some greenery and our wedding flower), and he and his team provided the most beautiful cake; it was better than we imagined and was delicious. They delivered the cakes to the venue with no issues, scored the sheet cakes, and set them up on the cake table. We are so grateful to have worked with Reynaldo's Bakery for our special day! Thank you! read more

I was in search of a peanut butter cookie. I was told to come here by the sweet old ladies giving out city info. They had a cookie for me and was fresh....but fell way short of being good. I took one bite and then it found its way to the bottuim of my backpack. I'm sorry Reynoldo. When I come back to this town to get my Monkey Madness drink across the street, I will try 1 more cookie. I promise you this. JRB read more

Everything inside looks lovely and nicely decorated. Employees are kind. All around, this is place is really nice. 10/10 recommend read more

So we gave it a try, right off the exit at Linden Ave. I ordered Joe's favorite burrito chile verde w eggs and cheese, man was it good. They gave a good variety of Mexican pastries, tamales, menudo, cookies ,flan,cake &pies. The menu for Mexican food is also pretty good w antojitos for what your craving. Small place bustling w smiling employees and customer s too. I'll have to stop again to try something different, read more

Was driving about 1.5 hours and still had about another 1.5 hours to get to my destination. Usually do an early AM pit stop in this area since it's halfway point and there's a Starbucks I usually go to. This time, I decided to hit up local spot, Hispanic owned was a plus..or so I thought. Walked in with my dog(service dog allowed). There's a line to order, then a small dining area further away from order line. It wasn't till I was next in line to order/pay(then I was going to wait outside), when I was told they didn't allow dogs. I explained that I was ordering to go, just wanted to pay and wait outside, refused to let me order/pay and still forced me out. Said to call in order over the phone and they'd take my order out. It was literally my turn to order/pay. Being that I went out of my way to stop here, I did not want to waste anymore time and simplified my order for quicker service. Called their #, ordered my 2 pastries, and just sat outside and watched ALL the other customers who came in waaaay after me get their hot food and go on their way. Being a Panaderia, at 7:15am, I expected fresh warm fluffy pastries. What I got were hard day old pastries. Lesson learned. Gracias por nada! read more

Food was absolutely amazing we are from Santa Maria and wanted some manudo and pozola and this was amazing and we got more stuff like the wedding cookies . We had a little wait but it was absolutely worth the wait read more

Haven't eaten a thing here that I haven't liked. Great tamales, great churros, great pastries, I really haven't found something from Reynaldo's yet that I haven't loved. Authentic tasting Mexican food and pastries, the one European pastry I've tried from them was really good too. The business is hopping in the mornings. Note that the churros run out pretty quick in the mornings. I've gotten churros from here three days in a row now. Well worth getting up early. read more

Excellent all the way around! Great old school bakery goods. The cookies are outrageous. Fantastic burritos! Plenty of menu items for breakfast, design your own breakfast burrito... Tamales any time are just like my mom would make, made with love. Order early for Christmas.... Wonderful family shop, eat in or take away! Enjoy. :-) read more

Reynaldo's is great It's definitely worth a stop. The service was excellent and you definitely get the feel of a family run restaurant (in a good way). Not a lot of indoor seating but there room enough and it's a nice spot. read more

Love the bread this place is amazing not just that the burritos are also amazing for sure recommended coming here.

I love this establishment. For 14+ years i have lived and flourished in this wonderful oasis we call Carpinteria. Part of the wonder and bliss of living here, is the sense of community, support and warmth of its residents and local businesses. Reynaldo's Bakery is an example of everything awesome about this town. A local family business that does things the right way, all the time. FAMILY. Everyone serving the community from this establishment is family. They remember each customer and treat you as an extension of their family. CULTURE. The state of California is an extension of Mexico; literally, figuratively & culturally. The cultural beauty and majesty of Reynaldo's reminds us of this and helps encourage this beautiful fact and way of living within our town (the best and last small beach town in California). Great food & Service. There are many places one can find quality cultural cuisine in SoCal and particularly in the Santa Barbara area. Reynaldo's however combines the aforementioned with a virtual "hug from abuela". Each time I experience this establishment, I feel like there's a warmth and "hug from Abuela" with each transaction. The warmth and sincerity which which they carry out their service to the community is simply awesome. It makes one want to return, over and over again. RESPECT. There is something about a service provider remembering your name and story that makes all the difference in the world. When i step inside and am greeted by my name, then asked about my child and family in a sincere way, that shows me they truly remember....that is simply beautiful and it sends a fraternal energy that makes me want to promote and support this place in ways that stand out beyond other similar establishments. Oh....and the breakfast burritos are awesome! During the spring Track & Field season, i order my team breakfast burritos whenever we are traveling a far and need to leave carp before 9am for a track meet. This place is awesome and i trust you will experience it for yourself. Say hello and tell them you read a review by a really enthusiastic local Track and field coach. I trust this review helps bring you in to join the Reynaldo's fraternity. Happy munching! read more

When visiting Carpinteria, I stopped here 3 times! They have a huge array of pastries, savory items, and drinks. They have everything from pies, turnovers, croissants, and donuts. My favorites are the boysenberry turnover and strawberry and cheese croissant. The items are soft, sweet, and filling. This place is great for a quick breakfast bite before a long day! read more

Reynaldo's provided tamales, rice, beans, and a sheet cake for a group picnic with 65 people. The food was excellent. Reynaldo's delivered the food at the scheduled time. Ana at Reynaldo's was very nice to work with and accommodated additions to the order that I place the day before the picnic. We will definitely choose Reynaldo's for our annual group picnic. read more

Apple Tart was good, like a mini apple pie. Same for the cherry tart, lots of cherry filling wrapped in a pie crust pastry. Bolillo bread was a little too salty. Best item was lemon empanada. The lemon filling seemed homemade, nice and tart....not that awful shiny bright lemon donut filling that many places use. Boysenberry turnover was not a fave...the filling tasted sour or vinegar-like. Quite odd. read more

I ordered a cake for a birthday party and was not dissapointed. Great price for 1/4 sheet, and the taste was delicious! I live in ojai and its hard to find a great bakery that is not too pricey and not too far. Would defenitley order a cake from them again in the future. read more

I am addicted to there jericalla custard. It's less sweet than flan and a bit more firm than creme brûlée. There flan is also good but the jericalla is my favorite. It's also difficult to find so when I saw that they made that I can't stay away. The store is clean and the cashiers are helpful and friendly. They have a nice selection of baked goods and Mexican food also. read more

Rude. Would not allow us to place order because I took my mask off at the table to eat. Wife was ordering and we decided to leave.

Great Service! Pre ordered large order to go for meetings of 20+ people everything was ready by 6am and individually wrapped bc of covid issues and various company members touching everything! Made the meeting and thank you to for having such well trained and friendly staff!! Giselle helped me pre order and was very helpful! Good job! read more

My family and my self have been ordering cakes from this bakery for a long time. I ordered a cake for a birthday party and this has been the worst experience ever, let me get started by saying that the owner Diane was rude and unprofessional. I was very displeased with my cake and she refused to speak to me on the phone and put her employee on the phone to take the heat for her and also telling me she did not know that I had called her when she is the one that told her employee that she would call me back. Some one give this business owner the award of year for good customer service. I had ordered a banana and vanilla custard filled cake. When the owner called me to discuss the decorations on the cake I try to explain to her how I wanted the cake made and she rudely told me "I don't need to know that" I should of right then canceled my order with her rude attitude. But since we have always ordered from them I let it slide, well to my surprise this woman was completely oblivious to what I wanted. Instead of doing a vanilla cake with "banana and vanilla custard " she did banana bread, yes BANANA BREAD!!!!!, It was for a birthday party not for a gathering to serve coffee with it. I was so mad that how can some one do such a mistake. When I called to explain my frustration I asked to speak to the owner and I was rudely told that she wasn't available and from this point only way she has communicated with me has been through email where she was also rude. Her employe offer me a discount on my next order but why would I even want a discount, do they really think I am going to place another order after the way I was treated and the owner hiding. This would of all been resolved if the owner was a better business person. You have to own up to your mistakes and try to fix it. But like i keep saying hiding and being rude is not going to bring you my business again. So if I was you reading this review find another place unless you want to serve banana bread and coffee at your next party Updated: After posting my review I was sent a rude message by one of her employees by the name Catalina calling her self a former employee but knows every single detail, being extremely rude towards me. This is the type of treatment this bakery offers to their customer. Check the pictures to see message I was sent. read more

On our way up to Solvang we stopped here for lunch. My boyfriend raves about the tamales, but I didn't think they were that amazing. We parked in downtown near Reynaldo's and headed in. It's kinda dingy in a small family owned sort of way. But they have a huge display of pastries of all varieties which all looked great, but I knew I was going to eat a crap ton of sweets in Solvang so I didn't get anything. They have a small menu of 'mexican foods' and a decently sized case filled with prepared burritos and tamales, which they heat up in a toaster oven. I got the chicken and pork tamales, and I just found them to be too 'bready' if you can even say that about a tamale. I couldn't say they were amazing, they were just okay. Maybe I just don't know what a good tamale is. My boyfriend loves them. Anyways it was $10 for 4 tamales and a large bottle of water. The girls working the counter were very nice, and I might stop here again just to try a pastry and a burrito. read more

Breakfast burrito was delicious!! And so many pastries to choose from! It had a few patio seatings outside and was walking distance from the hotel. Yes read more

Delicious burritos, bread, pastries, cookies, and custom cakes. They made a custom tiramisu cake for me. Really kind staff.

Love the dessert and coffee. We tried the guava and cream cheese . Yum ! Better than what we get in a Los Angeles bakery .

I had the menudo and it was really bad. No tripe and very little corn. I was served the last remnants of the day! Will not return. I can get better from a can. read more

Lovely shop located in the middle everything; just minutes from Island Brewery. There is a big selection; from cookies to sandwiches; you can load up the picnic basket for sure. Everything in the display case looked fresh. It was very impressive, they offered traditional Mexican sweet breads and European pastries. I found everything tasty and well made, very authentic. Also, pricing for everything was reasonable, probably a steal considering the quality of the baked goodies. Side note: I picked up a few tamales to go. The fillings were spot on, with the meats seasoned very well. After reheating in a microwave I found the corn masa to be a little bit dry but still delicious. Compared to bakeries in the Ventura area, their tamales are average in size; somewhere between a medium to large but not small. I would say their tamales are worth a try if you are a tamales fan. read more

A couple years ago I stopped here with my family and was charmed by the glass cases filled with colorful "day of the dead" cookies, sweet pastries and various savory dishes. I ordered a chile relleno for lunch. It was good. When I came back to Carpenteria this summer my dad wanted to buy tamales for dinner one night, and I remembered the cases of savory Mexican dishes. We stopped by and ordered chicken and pork tamales in green sauce, vegetable tamales and tamales filled with green peppers and cheese, called "Rajas". We also picked up some roasted salsa and guacamole. It was all DELICIOUS. The Rajas tamales were my favorite, and the guacamole was better than homemade. This little bakery and takeout place is always jumping. With the reasonable prices and delicious food it's easy to see why. read more

Their Crispy Cherry pastry was hard and crunchy. It also contained a pit which is very dangerous.(At least you know they use fresh cherries). Also, their Mexican hot cocoa taste like water with a little bit of spice. Maybe their machine wasn't working properly, but why would they use water and not milk? Everyone else that came through seemed happy, but they kept it simple, only getting chocolate donuts and coffee. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Hopefully, this visit was just a fluke on their part. read more
