This place is absolutely amazing! The food was super good, perfectly seasoned, and full of flavor. We ordered the chilaquiles, enchiladas, and the spicy breakfast. Everyone loved their dishes. The matchas were also so good!!
Even tho the place was super busy, the line moved quickly and our food came out fast. They had amazing customer service, everyone was super friendly, and the owner is truly the sweetest. The place is also so pretty. There’s some good places to take pictures, I loved the decorations. I definitely recommend this place and will absolutely be coming back in the future!

We came to this cafe on a Sunday around 10:30 am and it was super busy, yet customer service was amazing and we didn't wait long for our drinks. We ordered from the Holiday menu and when our Grinch Drink got messed up from the cup lid, they were generous enough to remake my drink. I am super grateful for their time and efforts to make our experience jolly! The Grinch drink was super cute, and the matcha flavor was delicious! I will definitely go back to try their food, everything around me looked delicious and smelled great.

Went in after hearing co-workers discussing it and was told they had breakfast burritos. Greatest up inside. Plenty of room to sit down and an impressive display of their breads and drinks. The menu on display did not show burritos, but when I asked the cashier taking orders, he said they did. Apparently they have a whole other food menu but it is not on display at this time. The burrito was $18, which was higher than most places in the area. The size was smaller than I had hoped BUT the taste made me forget about those previous negatives. One of the best I have had since moving to this area. The flavor was on point. Every bite was delicious with the flavors just popping. Very well made and now have to go back and discover what other meals I can find. Hopefully they will get their menu updated because I feel there are missed opportunities for them.

I was really excited to try this new café since everyone's been talking about it, but honestly, I left disgusted.

Seating is first come, first served, and we waited about 30 minutes for a table. Once we sat down, the food came out pretty fast -- but that's probably because it didn't have flavor. I ordered an omelet that came with beans and breakfast potatoes. The beans were super watery, and the omelet tasted like it had been diluted with way too much milk.

My friend got the creamy chipotle chilaquiles ($13), added carne asada for $7, avocado for $3, and even got charged $1 for requesting her eggs over medium -- almost $24 total. She said it wasn't anything special.

I got an iced Mazapán coffee which was good not too sweet and not too bitter but again nothing special. 1 thing I will say all the employees were very nice.

The real problem was how many flies were inside. But the worst part was when my friend noticed a cockroach fall on my chest after we finished eating. I flicked it off, and it landed on our table. There were also a few small bugs flying around and even a spider on my friend.

For a brand new restaurant, that's just not acceptable.

I really really wanted to like this place! Bc of the hype you know. Okay so first off tables and chairs are first come first serve! there is no server or greeter who will sit you or attend you that’s on you.
Two it gets very very busy and has limited seating! just one long row of seats. It’s overwhelming to see everybody standing around waiting for a seat or waiting/snooping for when the next person will leave. Also it’s very nice inside but feel like there definitely could be more tables added, I’m not sure a merch corner is absolutely necessary or just that big when that could be more seating.
Three the place has flies flying around
and 4 when I finally got my order it definitely looked great! But FOUND A HAIR in my food. They did redo my plate but came back with no egg. Which I specifically added to my plate.
The tables don’t have salt pepper or syrup no napkins you need to go get that yourself which is a bit inconvenient with all the people around.
5, they were working on the store and bringing in pallets & fixing up the wall i believe, and setting up a new trash can while everyone is in line which could be a hazard and the line was out the door. The staff was EXTREMELY nice and friendly! just feels very disorganized. I don’t think I will be coming back but their pastries are very cute! And the place itself is very nice. Over all paid over $65 which I don’t think was worth it. Cute place tho!

A review can be hit or miss. Here is a honest take. Service was slow. Tables dirty. Portion of breakfast burrito small and high priced but flavor was amazing. The orange sauce was on point. Sweet bread okay very tasty as well. Order came out wrong. we were charged 3 breakfast burritos and only got one. We had to wait longer. As well as another customer. I feel like ownership should be involved more in logistics especially when trying to make a impact in a boutique shop launch. Could go to Rosita in Manteca and get better deals and faster service but this flavor is unique and you should try it once. Plus there is always more authentic places but the taste here is unique. I would say A for effort and C for execution for now. Does not mean they can evolve and do better. Maybe some day they can get it right in logistics. For now they have opportunities to work on.

Beautiful atmosphere immersed in true Mexican culture. The food is fabulous! I ordered a white mocha and it was by far better than Starbucks. The conchas are made fresh and so delicious. Loved the tamales with chunks of meat. My husband ordered carne asada skillet and is already planning our next visit. 10/10 highly recommend!

Such a vibe! Con Azúcar has the perfect blend of authentic Mexican flavors and cozy coffee shop energy. The coffee is amazing and don’t even get me started on the conchas! The staff is super friendly and makes you feel right at home. 💃☕️🍞
