  Really cute bakery. Their empanadas are so good & their coffee is really good too. They have few tables to sit as well & during the summer they have outdoor seating

  A bright, light place with big windows. It’s a pleasant place to hang out. They have an impressive array of stuff (membrillo tart, cake, cupcakes, macaron, conitos de Dulce de leche, muffins etc) for such a small place. The lemon puff pastry was very much you see what you get. The puff was fine, it did it’s job as a little flavor holder. The flavor was a custardy, which for me muddles the bright lemon flavor I like best. But that’s just preference. The pistachio cake pop had a surprisingly deep pistachio flavor. And it’s packed so densely it’s texture is more like marzipan or something. Pistachio flavor just elevates things. There’s multiple deserts with Dulce de leche reflecting the stores Argentinian influences. The classic alfajores explode into lemony (?) tinged dust when you bite into it. My first impression is “oof it’s dry”, but before you can finish the thought, it’s ground so finely it practically melts in your mouth. Still, definitely a good one to have coffee with. You might be saddened by the Dulce de leche vs cookie ratio, but it actually works. Any more dulce and it would overwhelm the cookie’s delicate flavor. I was pleasantly surprised to see they have sandwiches and empanadas, so I could see coming here for more substantial food. The prices were great for a cafe, $10 for 3 treats and a small coffee. Their scope is ambitious, I’d be interested in trying more things to see if they can really make everything they’re setting out to do.

  Cute and cozy spot, we stopped by for delicious beef empanadas and alfajores! Love that they add lemon zest to the shortbread, gives it that extra something special. Lots of attention to detail in this space. Will definitely come back if in the area again!

  Where to begin. My daughter and I have been waiting for this place to open for months. Today we finally went in and got several items to sample. First, the place inside is beautiful. The staff was very friendly. The displays were full and enticing. We ordered a bow tie, a shortbread like cookie with dulce de Leche filling, Carne empanada, cake pop, piece of strawberry cake, a doughnut looking pastry with dulce de Leche filling, and stars. My daughter was not impressed with the flavors. She said it lacked flavor. I tend to agree. If you're not looking for anything sweet then it may be perfect. The size of the pastries for the price to me was a little off. It's cheaper to use cash over credit, keep that in mind if you stop by. Not sure if I'll be back, but enjoyed the experience.
