Reviews for Azucar in San Diego, CA
A must visit when you?re in San Diego! All the cakes, pastries, and treats are beyond extraordinary- beautiful and delicious! I... discovered this gem two years ago while staying at Ocean Beach then drove here from Mission Beach while visiting this last time.I wish I could find a bakery like this in Colorado, the customer is top notch. Treat yourself! Read more
Last night I spent $160 at a fancy Italian restaurant. This morning I spent $20 at a Cuban bakery called azucar. The bakery was... magnitudes better as far as tasty food and service. I'm only sad that it wasn't 11a yet so I could try the sandwiches. GuessI'll have to revisit San Diego, oh well. We had the Cuban pie, 5/5 (like a Cuban sandwich with flaky sweetness added in). Somesort of gluten-free Chia coconut banana muffin, which was killer. The guava cheese pastry was the best of its kind I've ever had(grew up in south Florida). Cortadito was nice-- always a bit too sweet for me but they were happy to do half sugar. The pricesare even fair. I love Azucar. Read more
So good! Guava cheese pastry is yummy. Pistachios de limon is good too. Parking can be limited during the weekend.
The biggest problem that you will have here, is deciding which dessert to get. Everything looks super tasty. Forget about a diet... when you go here, just indulge and enjoy. Read more
1st time here and will not be the last . The double espresso cuban style , the desserts and the cubano all delicious . As... Bourdain said many times , go to where the locals are or something close to that . Read more

This was the highlight of my trip to San Diego! I?m so bummed we found this fantastic place on our last day. I was able to taste... the quesitos, the pastries with guava, the pastelitos, had a delicious cafe con leche and last but not least the cubanosandwich! Everything was phenomenal!!! Seriously my favorite spot from my trip! I was able to bring some pastries back home, allthe way to the east coast and had my friends and hubby try the guava pastries, they loved it! Staff was extremely helpful andfriendly! Everything about this place is wonderful. Read more
I am disappointed that you don't get the same cakes shown on the front display with the fresh flowers of the day. Instead they... surprise you with a different looking version with not so fresh looking florals on top. What I saw in front was what I expectedsince it is for a special birthday celebration. And these pretty desserts are not cheap. Got them early in the morning so maybethey gave us the leftovers in the back? Read more
