On 2/18/2026 rincon Venezolano had this to say:
Absolutely delicious! It's my first time trying them; my daughter gave them to me and what a treat!

On 2/14/2026 Barbara had this to say:
I’ve driven past this little gem so many times. Decided to try them out on Valentine’s Day for a sweet treat. Their boxed lunch is a perfect sized portion for lunch. I ordered the Happy Cristo and happy I was! The sandwich was bursting with flavor. The win for me? They could make it gluten free! My son ordered the grilled cheese and loved it more than mine haha! My son and husband both got waffle pops. There are so many delicious choices making it nearly impossible to choose. Even more reason to return and try new flavors. For those with gluten allergies like me, they have gluten free options on Fridays and Saturdays. Finally a place I can splurge with the fam. If you haven’t tried this place, don’t think twice. You won’t be disappointed.
