  Great little bakery hidden in the corner of a plaza. This place is a gem. They have a lot of baked goods and cakes ready to be purchased. They also take special orders as well too. They also offer Banh Mi ( Vietnamese sandwiches) which are really good too, I always grab at least 10 before I head back home. Remember to get the veggies separately if you plan on taking some with you. The boba is good too, my personal favorite is the Taro slush. The place is more of a take out spot. They have tables in there that you can use to dine but people mainly grab and go. Currently, their hours aren't that great due to lack of employees but you can tell it's family owned and they're trying.
  
  I always stop by whenever I'm in the Louisville Area.

  A quaint bakery that is a total treasure. Not only do they offer baked goods that are quite exceptional, they have very YUMMY macaroons. They also have Banh Mi (Vietnamese sandwich); selections of Boba, teas, smoothies, iced coffee, Vietnamese coffee; beef jerky, pate chaud, buns (onion-bacon, hot dog) and pre made meals. DaLat's offer Asian desserts and a few American sweets. This bakery have a French influence in other words, their frosting is not sickly sweet. It's very RICH & CREAMY. It appears that most customers get their items to go but they do have 3-4 tables if you want to stay and eat. Prices are very affordable. Staff are friendly and helpful.

  I love local hole in the wall places but I could only give 3 stars. I was in the area and had seen it on Yelp so I decided to stop in for lunch. I arrived at 1:30 so I guess it wasn't peak time but the place was fairly dark and no one was out front.  It was interesting-I didn't really know how to order but someone finally came out and he was friendly and helpful. I think the only item that you can order is a pork sandwich so I went with that and a green milk tea. He suggested adding tapioca balls to the tea. I'm adventurous so I went for it!
  
  The sandwich bread is like a hoagie roll that is toasted and has strips of meat, cucumber, and cilantro. I really loved the flavor! I recommend getting it to go. The dining area hadn't been tended to and it felt strange sitting there in dim light.
  
  In the short time that I was there, several people stopped and got drinks and bakery items to go. The bakery items looked pretty amazing.

  My family has been going here for years and they never seem to disappoint. You can get cakes ordered here, boba made, some desserts, and pastries. They are also known for Vietnamese sandwiches also known as, Banh Mi. I come here for the banh mi and Vietnamese coffee and they are known to be authentic.

  I absolutely love DaLat. Aside from the fact that everything here is delicious, you truly can't beat the price. I come here mainly for the sweets and pastries because they're mouthwateringly good. DaLat's baking style is rooted in a French-Vietnamese flare, which sets DaLat apart from most bakeries. I'm not big on frosting, UNLESS it's been made by DaLat. It's not sweet like typical frosting, but is instead rich and creamy. The cake itself is moist and spongy, and the buttercream frosting compliments the cake so well. My favorites are the mocha cake (think tiramisu) and the coconut taro cake. I actually had DaLat make my wedding cake, and it was a HIT. I highly recommend DaLat for weddings, dessert, or just an afternoon pick-me-up!
