The drinks and pastries are really good. I have tried most of their drinks with my favorite being the horchata latte. I like their diverse dessert menu with seasonal items like the mini roscas. Also I really like the venue, it has a nice view of the park. But the custoner service could be better aside from two young ladies that are really nice.

The other day, the lady behind the counter that I greeted just went to the back with not even a quick note, like, "I will be back soon" or "someone will come to help you soon. " Nothing. I ended up leaving because this wasn't the first time I had experienced something like this. Many times I have arrived and had to wait for someone to notice my calls or bell (they put one out at the front for this purpose). Basically, depending on when you go, you may have to work for their attention.

I went to get crepes during the weekday and it turns out they only have them during the weekend. This is not stated on their menu.

The drinks are only available in what I would say is a medium. I wish they had other sizes. Not a super big deal but just wanted to share in case it is helpful to anyone.

I am posting this in the hopes that this will help them improve because I really want to give them a 5-star review and recommend them. But, as of right now, I would much rather recommend another place that also offers good food and drinks with good customer service.

I was very thrilled to have some chai, as I've never been there. I went yesterday and wasn't pleased with the service. I got there with two other friends 20 minutes before closing and the staff didn't want to prepare us what we wanted because they were about to close The slices of cake were good though.

Purchased a cake for babyshower, picked up and it wasn’t ready on time, they made it all sloppy and the lady in charge still had an attitude instead of apologizing!

I love this place! It's a small hola in the wall that definitely earns a 5 star rating. It offers a wide selection of fresh made pasties and fresh artisan coffees. Prices are reasonable, service is great and always friendly.

When my boss tells us he's bringing in these treats, everyone shows up ON TIME!

Everything we've tried from Terzo is amazing, you can really taste the love that goes into each thoughtful creation.

My parents sold bakery equipment locally when I was a kid, I've tried every pastry in town. I can confidentially say the croissants are incredible, light, fluffy, impressive lamination.and I'm still angry that my coworker took the one I was planning on sneaking into my purse (you know who you are).

Give this delicious bakery a try ️ it's the place Chula Vista has needed for decades, what they are creating inside is incredibly special.

My rating is based on my purchase of an 8 inch tres leches cake.
I bought this cake early in the morning. The cakes have a very nice presentation and decoration. The service on the other hand is very deficient. I asked the worker if all the fruit looked that way (browning and dull in color) and he answered in a rude manner that is the way they receive it. One would expect a better service when the day has just begun and its not that busy.
The cake was also bad. Bad in texture, flavor and price. I paid 40$ expecting a light and airy sponge cake soaked in a mixture of milks you could feel in every bite, but my expectations were not met. The cake looks big and tall but when you cut into it you find a really thick layer of vanilla mousse. The cake feels dense and heavy, the milks don't really taste like tres leches, and it is overly sweet. It is way to sweet for my liking and unejoyable. I would not consider this an authentic tres leches cake nor worth it. You can find a better tres leches cake at Hans and harry's bakery or Northgate, better in flavor and price.

I am happy to be able to write a review for a WEDDING CAKE that Terzo Bakery made for us! It was a 2 tier strawberry shortcake and it was amazing! It was literally some of the best cake we have ever had and our guests loved it, too! The pricing was very fair compared to some of the other bakeries we visited. We had a little bit left over after the wedding. It was gladly eaten with coffee in the morning. Dessert for breakfast, don't judge!

Hidden gym for coffee and desserts. We ordered a mini tres leches and a iced mexican chai. Both were delicious. I recommend the iced coffee on hot days in SD. The mini tres leches is really good. Good portion if you don't want the big one but the little one will want you to buy the big one for a special occasion. They have a restroom and really nice shaded sitting. Customer service is great. Im making this my getaway for a date with my wife on weekends. Its near other restaurants and breweries. Parking is not that bad just bring some change to pay the meter. 1 dollar in quarters will buy you over an hour of parking. This spot is 5 stars.

Coffee was one of the best I’ve had. Lovely workers and establishment is kept neat and clean. Very relaxing place to enjoy a nice cup of coffee or dessert!?

Had the iced latte, was really good. It's a nice little spot for relaxing. Didn't have them, but their pastries look really nice. I didn't know this nice coffee shop was there, definitely recommend.

I had the Aztec latte and it was tasty. However, I tried a cake pop and it had no cake flavor. All I could taste were layers of sugar.

Not happy about my experience at this place. I placed an order for a cake on 04/29/2022 for today, 05/10/2022. I just came to pick it up and it turns out that they sold the cake that I had ordered (and paid for) to someone else. The girl at the front called the baker (owner) and although they did offered to make one for me, they expected me to return at a later time.

If I had placed my order at a certain time it’s because I needed it at a certain time. Time is money. They did not offered anything else. Not reliable, will not be coming back.
