The Best Things We Ate This Month - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"By George in downtown’s The Candler Hotel feels like an out-of-era experience because the restaurant sits in a regal turn-of-the-century building that looks out toward the path of the Marta trolley car (which none of us have gotten used to). And I’d like to say dessert at By George feels like old elegance, too—this fluffy dessert is already among the best of them. But soaked in the sweetness of tres leches, this cake feels more like a spoonful of spongy coconut cream. If the Greek gods ever had the opportunity to re-appropriate a dessert that should actually have the name of ambrosia, we're pretty sure this would be their pick." -Nina Reeder, editor" - nina reeder, juli horsford, demarco williams, jacinta howard

It's a chain store from Mexico, an interesting introduction to commercialized Mexican pastries, especially the jello cream cake and various flavored tres leches. Not too sweet, pleasant. The cakes were cute, and the place is spacious, bright and clean. Next time I will try their coffee if I have a chance.

My favorites are the pistachio ice cream and the citrusy sorbet (forgot what type of fruit it was). Ice cream was creamy and nit tgat sweet and the pistachio flavor was on point. It had bits and pieces of the nuts. The sorbet was reallt citrusy, had a balance of tartness and sweetness. For the cakes, we had the tiramisu, blueberry tres leches and mixed fruit cakes. They taste good but I'm not fond of moist cakes, like they were soaked in some syrup. But they were ok, sweetness is just right. The server is a latina who cannot understand english as she always asked another staff or probably her supervisor to translate. Language barrier aside, she was very nice and exert her effort to serve us. I hope they put more chairs for dine in customers. Will probably come back if Im in the Little Italy area.

UPDATE: THEY NOW HAVE ICE CREAM!!! dark chocolate, pistachio, cookies n cream, passion fruit and strawberry. 2 scoops for about $7. Not bad at all. The ice cream was delicious, especially the strawberry and passion fruit. A must try! Great place to get quality Mexican Tres Leches Cake (basically a more moist version of Sponge Cake). Nice staff who are more than willing to explain each flavor. Also, the flavors, tons of little unique flavors. They also sell flan (caramelized egg custard) , cheesecakes, different chocolate-based truffles, and cookies . Everything is delicious!!!

4/29/2025- Absolutely Delicious Tres Leches Cake! Celebrated my dad’s 80th bday and this cake made the difference! It is so fresh. I bought the mixed fruit one. The bread is ideal size and simply moist and delicious compared to other businesses. This cake is not cheap and the price is well worth it!!! Also recommend to buy individual cake slices. Raspberry and cappuccino were delicious!!! Have a memorable cake FOR YOUR LOVED ONE ON HIS/HER BIRTHDAY! Capy rocks!

Very friendly and attentive service right when you walk in. Coconut tres leches cake was divine… Light, refreshing, and not too sweet unlike lower quality cakes. I got a free sample of an interesting pecan dessert too! That one wasn’t anything to write home about, but it’s good to try new things.

Got the tres leche. Meh. Place was sterile, small, and they only had a handful of meticulously space baked goods. The place looked like a model of a chic little bakery, and the desert tasted they put too much into just the appearance.

$7 For basic slices of cake ALL in the tres leches style I purchased the red velvet and the strawberry. They were good - nothing spectacular- certainly NOT. $7/slice was not worth that for basic flavor,and basic presentation (in a plastic clam). Just meh!
