Great pasteis de nata. I live in MD and have only been to this place twice, but when I return, I'll be coming back here for sure. Small unpretentious place, but oftentimes these types of places have the best food. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because there's only street parking, but this is no fault of the owners. Thank you!
Great little bakery/restaurant. I usually just stop in for a coffee but today my girlfriend ordered a cappuccino, ham and cheese sandwich, and a pastry. The coffee is always fantastic and the food was just as excellent! A great spot for a quick bite and the best place for espresso in the area.
Although I live in California, I come to NJ annually visit family every Easter. When I'm here I try to find some time to sneak a drive to the bake to get some baked goods. I was lucky this year and had a chance to stop by. They have some pretty good Portuguese baked goods here. I picked out a few things to try and wasn't disappointed. As you can see below I got some egg tarts, a tart that I believe she said was like a custard tart, a slice of chocolate cake, a slice of napolean, and 3 meat pies, I know one was chicken and one was beef I believe. I honestly don't remember
The egg tarts were really good!! The other tart that I'll just call a "custard" tart was also very good. I honestly couldn't choose a favorite between the two. The slice of chocolate cake was way too heavy and sickeningly sweet. I had mistakenly thought it was a chocolate mousse cake. But that's probably my fault since i couldn't see very well. Regardless I ordered it anyway because I was curious. The chocolate napolean was very good! I believe they also carry a white version but I don't remember. Next time i'll take a picture. The meat pies were ok but a bit on the dry side.
The only reason I didn't rate 5 stars is because they have no tags with names or prices on any of the items in the display cases. I had to ask the girl working there what each item was. However the young girl that helped was very pleasant and didn't mind me asking so many questions. Will definitely stop by here again the next time I visit NJ.
If they read reviews and are looking to make improvements, that would be my first recommendation. Please label your items!!
I absolutely love this place everything they make is delicious. Tanto como su comida Portuguese y su comida Dominicana
Great food they have now Dominican food is tasty and bakery is good too.
