★★★★★ 5.0 Ricardo “Ricky” Martinez · Nov 2025

I purchased (two of each) cheese, pork, and chicken tamales to try them out. Also, I bought pan dulce (Mexican bread) a yellow concha, a payaso, and pan de agua (dinner rolls). The cheese tamales are delicious, flavorful, tasty, cheesy, perfectly proportioned, not spicy, and one of the best tamales I have ever tried. The pork are second. The chicken are flavorless and dry. I had a yellow concha and it was soft and tasty. TRY THE CONCHAS, A PAYASO BREAD, AND CHEESE AND PORK TAMALES. The pan de agua (dinner rolls) are world famous and there was an hour line for them. Try them they are price friendly. I did not try everything, so try what your heart desires.

My family has been coming to this bakery for 30+ years- never had any complaints until today. The person behind the counter was extremely impatient and “bossy” when placing our order. There were no other customers there so it wasn’t a matter of getting people in and out in a timely manner. Perhaps if they don’t want to be interacting with customers then they should look for another job. What a disappointment! I have been coming here since I was a young girl and the staff was always so warm and welcoming. Makes me miss those days!

There were Flys on most of all the sweet bread . They are wild there prices are way to high. Oh and if you want your one dozen of sweets in a box instead of a brown bag they charge extra for that to. I was very disappointed. I never had came here and never will.again. the lady was rude when I asked why do they charge for the plastic container I I am taking a dozen. She said they dont come back...thats wild. Never again

I’m not too much of a big fan of Pan Dulce but I like the Mexican cheese cake it’s fire. Their bread is good. The champurado is fire but overall it’s a bit pricey. The service is bland really stale and they take long serving the customers. Also the take EBT

I really wanted to like this place because the food was actually good, but the service completely ruined the experience. When I arrived, I was standing next to the register, waiting in what I thought was the line it wasn’t clearly marked. Instead of letting me know right away that the line started somewhere else, the cashier ignored me three people who came in after me only then did she tell me, “Oh, the line is over here.” Even though I was right in front of the register clearly waiting for her and she advised me I have to go the back even though I was there before a group of people. Later, while we were eating in their small dining area, I asked if there was a trash can I could use, and she said there wasn’t one available. Overall, the service just felt unhelpful and unwelcoming. The fo
