★★★★★a month agoReally friendly people, and very patient with my halting Portuguese. I got a couple of rissois de camarcao, which they fried fresh for me, and a couple of brigadeiros for take away. Everything was delicious and definitely worth stopping by!

★★★★★3 months agoCame twice early morning(10am), enjoyed 5 different pastry items and cappuccino. Everything was delicious and in a very reasonable price! So many different options to pick from and I bet everything is as good as what I chose! I would definitely recommend and come back again!
