El Dorado Bakery — Restaurant in South Valley

This was my first time here. For the most part, my experience was okay except I didn't know how to grab donuts or pastries. I feel like there should be signs instructing customers what to do since no one on staff was able to tell me.

Never going back, I will drive to the main El Dorado Bakery on Gibson and 2nd. If I could give zero...
