This is the place I'll drive on the freeway during a rainstorm for some good pan dulce. Located in plaza Mexico shopping center, surrounded by various other bakeries and shops for Mexican delights... but this little bakery is the winner. My mom and I are very picky when it comes to our pan dulce. It's been a staple in our home growing up and now in my home it is still there on my dining table to share with my friends. Vivian's bakery has the soft, flavorful, delicious sweet bread with the best recipes. I can taste the difference in the bread here compared to any other bakery. It's just better! Trust me. The customer service is really great as well! I've been here on my good days as well as my bad days, and the owner has been gracious with me. Even once, I was short on cash and asked her to take out a piece and she smiled at me and said to bring what I owe for next time. Such a sweet lady! I can rave about the bread all day, but I've also got to mention a special item here. They serve atole, which is hard for me to explain what it is. It's not like coffee, it's thick but not like oatmeal. There's several flavors but the best one I've had here is also a rare flavor, I've never seen this offered anywhere else and it's... GUAYABA (guava). The guayaba atole is SO DELICIOUS. I can't even begin to explain what it tastes like! It's just GOOD and sweet, so if you don't like sweet I wouldn't recommend. But also, while in line I ALWAYS overhear people say they're getting the Nuez (walnut) atole. So that's really popular too. I wasn't a fan, though. Anyway, please give this place your business if you want to try some GOOD pan dulce and maybe some of their other treats. You won't be disappointed!

Bought a tres leches cake here based on reviews it was supposed to be great. It wasn't. Unfortunately it tastes terrible and was dry. Maybe a pre order freshly made tres leches cake would have tasted good. However don't buy the ones behind the window as it seems they are sitting there for several days. Or at least the one I got tasted as though it had been. Sorry to say, as I was really hoping the tres leches cake would taste good but it all went to the trash.

The atoles drinks here are so delicious that I crave atole during the summers as well. Haven't had their pasties but they look scrumptious as well. The queue system is a bit disorganized but the ladies manning this humble abode help things move quickly.

Tres leches cake and cake pop were good. The other bread pastries were only ok, better in the toaster. I would get the cake items again! Prices decent.

Ordered a cake and was not done with the decoration I wanted or the filling I paid extra for and they did not even write the birthday message.

I asked for the first image and received the cake in the second image. I paid $170 for my cake to look like this.. if I would've known they weren't gonna be able to achieve the cake look that I wanted I would've went with something easier and more simple.
