We visited the restaurant during brunch buffet. This was s great way to sample what a variety of the menu without ordering everything at once. It's fair to say the food was good but the desserts were amazing. I ate 3 cannolis.
After getting extremely full we walked across the way to the bakery called Carlos Bakery. This is just the retail bakery side of the Buddy V. I am not sure what the deal is but there is always a line down the hallway with stantions. The wait was 45 minutes. You get up to the pastries and wait another 15 minutes to get your name called to pay. It a bit insane to have only 2 cashiers that can ring you up and keep this line control thing going. The people who put the pastries into a box and out your name on it then stand around to get rung up is inefficient.
