      Very hard to find tamales made with banana leaves. Mexico bakery's are SO delicious, tasted just like home. They sell out quickly- reccomended calling ahead of time.

      Go to spot for torta's as well, you can't go wrong as the bread is super fresh.

      The pan dulce is so soft and fresh both times i purchased. Today i tried a carne asada torta and delicious! Huge tortas. I also tried the chicken tamales. The tamales were moist and flavorful. I originally wanted to try their Mexican hoja de banana tamales, but they were sold out. I ordered my daughter's 5th birthday party barbie pastel here for 55 guest. I am definitely a permanent customer. I'll be returning, porque las señoras en la cocina saben lo que estan haciendo! Gracias =)

      Second time here! This sandwich is sooooo amazing! Portion wise it's so big, I usually can't finish the whole sandwich by myself, but only eating half the sandwich is so fulfilling.
      I had asana, feels like the beef is sooo good. We used the self service check out, ordered everything on the machine, no line so convenient!
      They have so many pastries here too, everything looks so big, haha, it's pretty cute!

      Came here around lunch time on a Thursday and it was pretty busy. I've been here a few times before noticed that they have a self checkout kiosk now which was pretty cool.

      I've always ordered their tortas, but know that they are very filling that half of that amazing sandwich would work for me. I highly recommend their tortas! This time I ordered a chicken quesadilla and omg! It was very substantial. If you ever order chicken quesadillas elsewhere and are disappointed that you never get enough chicken, you have to come here as they are not stingy with their meat. It was nicely cooked and juicy. A bit too much meat for my liking as it felt like 80/20 of meat vs cheese. I love how the quesadilla wasn't soggy and still had a nice crust because it was made fresh, but be careful as the foil was hot while opening.

      As for the chocoflan, it's a favorite! If you've never tried this delightful dessert, you're missing out, especially if you're from East Side San Jose area.

      Also during this visit, there was construction going on inside, so you might want to plan to eat in your car or at home for now.

      Such an amazing find. Everything was incredibly fresh. It felt like an old bakery from my childhood, where we used to buy birthday cakes and other bakery goods. It was crowded, with everything being made fresh right in front of my eyes. Service was quick. Ambiance-wise, it's not a bakery where you can sit and enjoy your coffee with croissants. Rather, it's a place where you come in, buy fresh bakery goods, and then go back home to savor the taste.

      When my family visits San Jose they love to get some Mexican bread to take home and I usually take them here.

      We stopped here after dinner to get some treats for my mom to take back home. There was a small line but the workers moved quick! One of the workers even came out to the lobby with a tray of fresh baked bread for everyone in line.

      We got our bread and spent nearly $50 with everything we got.

      Inside is a little small and with the small line forming it was a little cramped. We sat down at some of the tables they had inside to eat a piece of bread before heading home.

      The parking lot is really cramped here so that's the only downside.

      I love the pumpkin empanadas!

      Only a few tables to sit and eat so I would assume this is more of a take out kind of place. The cashiers were very nice and spoke both English and Spanish. There's hot food (sandwiches) along with desserts (donuts, cookies, breads, cakes). They also have some drinks (glass bottle sodas, water, etc.) Location itself is quite small but a large selection of bakery goods. There is one restroom but you may have to ask the cashier to open it with the key for you.

      What is inside the sandwich (torta)? It is a hot sandwich with your choice of meat, jalapeños, avocado, cheese, onion and tomato. For the beef sandwich it came with 7 layers of meat and the breaded meat was 4 layers of meat. A generous amount of meat and the sandwich was so big! Definitely recommend getting the sandwiches if you visit here.

      What a gem!! We ordered the Milanesa torta, a cinnamon roll, and a slice of caramel cake. Everything was SO GOOD. The torta came out hot & crispy and it was stuffed with toppings. My hand almost wasn't wide enough to pick it up because there was just so much stuff in it. It probably weighed at least 2 lbs. My fiancé and I were originally going to share the whole torta but we only finished half together. I love how the meat was thin and crispy and the avocados were creamy and so fresh. For how many toppings there were in the sandwich, the bread actually held up really nicely and didn't get soggy at all. I would definitely reorder this sandwich.

      The caramel cake was so moist while surprisingly being not too sweet. It was such a huge slice and we loved how every bite was drenched. There are 3 small tables for you to sit and enjoy your meal. We'll definitely be back to try their other pastries & tortas!!
