Walked in wanting to order a cake for my daughter’s birthday and found the older person behind the counter with an attitude when I started asking simple questions. I understand if you are having a bad day but it’s no excuse to have attitude with customers. I simply walked out and will not return. Really sad because they once did an amazing cake for her baptism party.

This place is a hit or Miss for NACATAMALES, if you are traveling from outside of San Francisco your better option is Oye managua, twice this place has disappointed me.

The 3-year-old man who serves provides a "TERMY SERVICE" which is a shame because the cakes are very delicious.

The man who is serving is too pedantic, he does not need to be talkative but he is friendly, how horrible it is to go shopping somewhere and the person serving you has that look on his face!!

Como Nicaraguense no hay mucha opciones de pasteles Nica. El Señor que estaba atendiendo el negocio tenia una cara de amargura. Como si fuera que le llegue a pedir me regalara los pasteles. Maneje una hora para llegar, y media hora para encontrar parqueo. Para que después de todo terminara bien desilusionada con el pastel. Compre uno de guayaba y tres individuales de tres leches. Desafortunadamente estos pasteles son para que asta el que no es diabético termine con diabetes. El pan super seco, y super dulce. Era exageradamente empalagoso y seco. Tristemente no lo recomiendo y no volveré a regresar. Mal servicio junto con muy malos pasteles. Ahórrense su dinero y tiempo.

If I could give a 0 star I would in a heartbeat !! The owner is sooo rude.!! I went 2 months ahead ofMy event to reserve a cake for my daughters quince. He gave us a price and told us to come back 2 weeks prior to the event.. so I went back 3 weeks before my event and he told us to come back this Saturday because I needed to talk to the baker !! We’ll I show up and he literally tells me he can’t give me the price I had in mind and that I needed to bring the paper he gave me and that he didn’t have an employee to deliver my cake ! Giving me 10000&1 reasons why he couldn’t do it!!! Why waste my time!! Lelenita’s is not what it used to be !! Stay away!! Don’t waste your time nor money here !!!

Wish I could put 0 stars. The owner is rude not a people person. The cakes are nasty, bad taste and bad presentation. Taste like days old and super dry. The place doesn't even look clean if you look at the displays of cakes they are dirty. And the prices are crazy, not worth for what you get TRUST ME DONT BUY FROM HERE WILL DEFINITELY BE DISAPPOINTED GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!

We love the guava cake, and the frosting perfecto. Service was fast and easy, all my questions where answered for a last minute celebration.

My family has been buying cakes from here since I was in the single digits and I’m almost 40, they got the best guava cake in the Bay Area, the tres leche is too sweet for me but my family loves it too, I read some of the comments and I will say there was a time that I too felt the cakes I received were not so fresh, the sponge was a bit stale but for the past 3 yrs now all the cakes I’ve bought have been to die for, this coming from someone who gets a cake because it Monday and why not lol the attitude eh don’t be so touchy, when you come here he’s straight forward and it depends on the weather hahaha so just buy your cake and enjoy it, get you some espumillas or rosquillas and call it a day. I also suggest their Pío quinto and sopa borracha, worth a try

Oh where do I begin! I needed to pick up a last minute anniversary cake for my son and stepson (don't worry, they were already dating before my husband and I got married haha... welcome to San Francisco!) Anyways, they completely nailed the cake! They included my favorite photo of the two, and the cake paired perfectly with my Barefoot Bubbly Pink Moscato (I even helped myself to two slices!) If you're ever in the city I definitely recommend this place.
