THE LEAD VERDICT
“tehir trees leches cake is actually Instagram worthy - three perfect layers with that glossy caramel drizzle catching light all nice and it tastes even BETTER than the photos dead serious”
“display case lighting is kinda harsh and unflattering making it hard to get a good pic of the pastries without editing the crap out of it”
ALSO FILED
“the coffee isnt the main thing here but they do a decent cortado that goes well with their pastries. cafe con leche was sweet and comforting, very authentic venezuelan”
“only a few coffee drinks - like just basic espresso stuff. no pour overs or fancy brewing methods for actual coffee nerds”

CONTRIBUTING CRITICS
“for real thier venezuelan empanadas aare the real deal - the arepa flour gives them this authentic texture that's way different from the usual wheat ones, and the black bean filling is properly seasoned”
“the sweet empanadas felt more like fusion stuff than traditional which is weird cause they're missing that subtle spice complexity you'd expect from actual venezuelan pastries”
“the cachitos have like really good layers - you can see the distinct pastry folds and theyre crispy. proper butter in there creating all that flakiness and the dough has perfect balance”
“ngl some of the cheese sauce was too thick and kinda broke WHICH means it prolly gottao hot or sat too long”
“perfect for late night sweet cravings - open til 8 on weekends with fresh empanadas still warm and the cheese ones especially hit different after being out late you know”
“sunday they close at 7 which means i've gotten shut out more than once when i'm really craving their dulce de leche cookies soo good”
“their tres leches is honestly transcendent - sponge is perfectly soaked not soggy and that delicate cinnamon finish just takes it to another level compared to typical versions”
“they don't have wine or even coffee which feels like a total missed opportunity when you've got pastries this good that need proper pairings”
“cachitos are basically venezuelan croissants with ham and cheese and tehyre so good. flaky buttery pastry thats clearly made fresh every day. ok but perfect for weekend brunch”
“coffee was jsut meh not like amazing compared to the pastries which are incredible. felt like they didnt try with it”
“the tequeños were amazing - crispy outside then you get melted cheese inside and theyre not stingy with the ají verde. that cilantro jalapeño kick was exactly what i needed”
“empanadas were flaky and well made but honestly kinda bland, couldve used some spice in the filling”
