Pane E Latte - Sunshine West

This was my first and last visit to this restaurant. The customer service was horrible and the bread was just average. I thought I was buying a spinach and feta flatbread for $8, but when I got home I realized it was just plain Turkish bread. When I went back to the store to discuss the issue, I had to explain myself and show my credit card transaction from just 10 minutes prior. Another staff member informed me that the bread I bought was actually only worth $6.50, meaning I was overcharged. I was then told that I should have asked before making the purchase, and was made to feel like I was in the wrong.

I really enjoy the mocha and the ambiance of this restaurant! The bread looks incredible as well. It's a charming spot in Deer Park that I definitely want to visit more often.

Old cake. Brought two slices of cake raspberry cake I think is weekd old like a piece of rubber and the death by chocolate named appropriate cause if you ate it you would feel ill chocolate changed color due to age never going back again sorry but check your cakes before you sell them.

So Pane E Latte. What can I say about this place? Well let's start with some background data shall we? I am an American on holiday. I did not know what to expect from this place and just found it on a regular stroll about the locale. Was I satisfied? Well quite so. I walk right in no knowing what is what and was greeted by a nice young lady. The place was small but quaint. I kind of liked it. It felt very welcoming and friendly. I ordered a simple black coffee and a spinach and cheese pastry type dish. Said order same out to me, note being I sat outside as it was a very nice day, promptly and for which I did not have to wait long. Coffee was a tad on the smaller side but was sufficient. The spinach and cheese pastry was nice. I quite enjoyed the dish but it didn't leave a lasting memory. Coffee, despite the size, was respectable. Definitely not the best I have had but far from the worst. I went back in and had an iced coffee and that too was brought to me outside and was just as nice. Much more than was I expected. I was expecting a simple iced coffee. Case in point an iced coffee that I was accustomed too is the same as a regular coffee just cold. This was much more. It was like a shake with ice cream on top. Will I complain about this break from normality? No I will not. I liked it a good deal. It just threw me for a curveball. What else can I complain about? Well, since it was the first time I was at this location I asked for recommendations and did not get any. Is this a big deal? Well, it is a double edged sword. On one hand it is a sign that everything may be good but on the other hand it may be that the location does not have its own identity. What selection is great here? What will be a good order considering I don't know what is good here? I do not know. I did not get a recommendation. I walked in blind seeking guidance and was left still blind. I don't know if I experienced everything this place had to offer or if I should return wanting more. It may be a minor gripe to you but to me it is rather important. I like knowing what a place has to offer. I like to asking for a recommendation and trying said recommendation to see if it was indeed a correct choice. Pane E Latte was indeed a nice place. Walking in I had a nice experience. I just wish they had the wow factor that I desired. Tell me what is good. Guide me to experience the best that you offer. That little extra step goes a long way in the eyes of the guest. If you make us feel like you want us to experience the best you have to offer we will come back to see the rest. What I experienced was, although nice, not enough to make me go out of my way to return and see more of what can be offered.

Pane E Latte is a delightful fusion of Italian, French, and Mediterranean cuisine. It offers a variety of options as a deli, specialty foods store, cafe, and bakery. It is the perfect spot for a work lunch break, offering delicious dishes like spinach and ricotta pastry and lemon meringue pie. I recently had a sit-down meal of chicken cotoletta with a side salad and fresh bread, which was filling and delicious. The meal only cost $15.50 and was well worth it. Next time, I will be sure to save room for their tempting cakes.
