"Based on other Yelp reviews, I decided to try the Guava cheesecake, priced at $7, while the whole cake goes for about $2.50. The server asked if I wanted it cut into 4, 6, or 8 slices, and I opted for 8, wanting to share it with my dining companions. The Guava cheesecake is light, fluffy, and moist. You can definitely taste the cream cheese, but the flavor of the guava is surprisingly mild. Typically, guava is known for its strong and aromatic profile, yet in this dessert, it tasted more like strawberry than guava. It also had a very vibrant red color, which made me wonder if food coloring was added, as guava usually doesn’t retain such a bright hue when cooked. Those who find guava overpowering might be pleasantly surprised by its subtle flavor here.
One of my friends ordered the Guava empanada but found it less impressive than the cheesecake. The crust was rather dry and unappealing, while the filling tasted similar to that of the cheesecake. Another dining companion had the egg croissant, which she found to be fresh and tasty. I didn’t order coffee, but those at my table who did seemed pleased with their drinks.
The prices are quite reasonable, with most items between $2 and $4. An interesting aspect of the restaurant is its layout; according to health code regulations, patrons must enter through the front and then access the back section, which serves as a community hall or forum. During our visit on a Sunday morning, there was an AA meeting in progress, which made it a bit awkward as we walked through their gathering to reach the main dining area, though they appeared accommodating.
Keep in mind that parking is limited to street parking, so Sunday mornings are your best bet, as metered parking is free then."
