Customer Reviews
I worried that they may be closed but I was able to walk in at 6:58pm and get a box of bread. It was my first time visiting this location because I used to go to the one in Vallejo. I'm not sure if this is due to the late hour I visited the bakery but the bread was very disappointing. The flavor was similar to what I had in Vallejo except much sweeter. The bread was drenched in so much syrup that it was soaked through the middle and every piece was stuck together so hard that I could not get one out without breaking it. It was also very dense, not airy and soft like the ones from Vallejo maybe because it was so wet. I was happy to find a location closer to home but I might continue to go to Vallejo for starbread if this is the norm here.
Walked in to buy a $3 donut. Card payment? Not allowed unless it’s $10+. Cash? Also not allowed unless the bill is under $20. So apparently you need the exact type of money they feel like accepting to buy a donut. Ridiculous, annoying, and completely customer-unfriendly. Lost a customer over pure nonsense.
Went to this spot for the first time, based on recommendations from others. Yum! The senorita bread is so simple and delicious!! I highly recommend you be prepared to eat a few as soon as you get them. Hot and fresh and super delicious! Even a few hours later and they were still delicious. But hot and fresh are the way to go! I will have to come back for more!
Only the Senorita breads worth 4 stars. Like other comments, the donuts are overpriced. The dough was just dry. Not worth $2.5~3/each. The mini pandan cakes were also dry and too much pandan extract that made the color oddly green and strong artificial flavor. The mochi donuts were also dry and not chewy, just like dry sponge. If you had mochi donuts before, you know how they supposed to taste like.
The famed seniorita bread is always great, warm, sticky and delicious. Kids and adults love them, with the only problem being you can't eat just a few, so buy extra. Everything else us kind of meh...tried donuts, cupcakes, etc...haven't found anything else we like there.
