I love this place. I've come here serval times especially for their tiramisu matcha latte…read more Unfortunately, every staff member makes its differently. Out of all the times I had it, I can say 2 times it was made the best. The best ratio of cream, matcha, sweetness, etc. They always have a variety of pastries to pick from. & though the line can be a little long sometimes, they move fast. I've sat in the restaurant a couple times, usually there is a lot of people, but it a really nice establishment.

We got the pinkfong cake for my daughter's birthday since it looked so cute. However the taste was…read morethe issue as it did not taste good at all. The frosting used on the outside and the cream used on the inside was not the fluffy and soft kind we liked and was not similar to the other cakes from this bakery that we liked. It tasted like hard butter and unfortunately we had to throw out the entire cake since everyone refused to eat more than the first bite. My husband asked the employee if this was a vanilla sponge cake and they said yes since he cannot eat chocolate cake. Unfortunately once we cut it, it was chocolate. It was a waste of $50+ and would not recommend unless you're just purchasing for pictures and not to eat. The mango and strawberry croissants were good with sweet whipped cream. I liked how the cream also tasted like mango in the mango croissant. The sweet pretzel was also good and crunchy. The inside of the store is nice with plenty of tables. I also liked how there were a lot of outlet spaces.

I reached out multiple…read moretimes wanting to place a few orders (cakes, Lunar new year gift set) including contacting the owner directly, and either didn't get a response at all or received vague replies days later. When I finally did hear back, the tone came across as arrogant and dismissive, as if taking a customer's order was an inconvenience. Instead of clear communication, I was given excuse after excuse for why my order couldn't be taken--delivery issue (i don't understand why this was an issue for them at all, because i clearly stated that i can do on-site pickup), limited capacity, etc. If you don't want the business, just say so. Don't string customers along and waste their time. A bakery should be welcoming and professional. Unfortunately, that was not my experience here. I won't be reaching out again.

At 11:07, I looked into the store and saw movement although the lights were still turned off. The staff member saw me and came to the door. She informed me that they had a last-minute catering request and she needed about 15 minutes before opening the door. She said that if I could come back in 15 minutes that she would offer me a discount. When I returned 15 minutes later, I told her I wanted to order a cinnamon roll. She said that I didn't have to wait earlier if I was just ordering a cinnamon roll. However, she did not ask what I was ordering during our earlier interaction. So that means that I waited for nothing. At the very least, she should have apologized for the inconvenience that I experienced and since I used the Groupon offer, I was not offered anything for waiting. Also, if there is a last-minute catering request, that should not affect the opening of the store. I was disappointed with the service that I received. The only redemption was that the cinnamon roll was really good. I ordered a customized roll with cream cheese, coconut, caramel sauce, Oreo, and pie crumble. It was divine and worth every calorie.

Hey friends! I worked an event at Kentlands so I decided to stop by for a sweet treat. Last time I…read morehad it was years ago and it was amazing, so I was super excited to come back. Of course, it smelled amazing when I walked in. I ordered an Old Skool Roll($7). It was soooo good. It was the perfect texture and perfect amount of sweet.

They switch out some flavors based on holidays or months. This month (may) is aapi month so they have a lot of delicious Asian inspired ice cream flavors. My favorite is mango sticky rice, Thai ice tea and black sesame crumb cake. Some of the past flavors I like was orange chocolate chip, Bethesda brown brickle (always on the menu), salt & cream oatmeal cookie, bourdon walnut pie, and earl grey speculoos. Yeah like I said I've been here a lottttt!

Sarah offers plenty of flavors, but none of them truly stood out…read more I was stunned upon entering as the wall was covered with every flavor imaginable. There were endless fruity and chocolate combinations to choose from. I had a chuckle at their Luck O' The Irish flavor, a leprechaun inspired mix of mint Oreo and Lucky Charms. There was a sign stating that samples were limited to two, but I appreciated that the employees let us try a few extra given the overwhelming variety. *Lavender Honey: leaned far more heavily into honey than lavender. I was disappointed by how faint the floral notes were. The base was overly milky and dominated by sweetness rather than any delicate herbal flavor. *Cherry Blossom: suffered from the same issue of muted flavors. Supposedly a rose water and cherry combination, neither ingredient made much of an impression on the base. The rose lacked any fragrance and the cherry failed to provide either tartness or brightness. *Salted Caramel: slightly too aggressive with the sea salt, though it could have worked if the caramel had more depth. Instead, the caramel lacked any rich, toasted flavor, leaving the overall profile rather flat. The variety was entertaining, but the execution fell short. Many of the flavors sounded far more exciting than they actually tasted. The mix-ins and toppings needed to be incorporated more generously, and the bases themselves required stronger infusions to carry the advertised flavors. In the end, the playful names were more memorable than the ice cream itself.

Overall: Japong Bakery is a hit for bread, would come back to try some more…read more Food: The bread here was fantastic, each one has their own charm and there is a wide enough selection that everyone has at least one that they will like. I especially liked the sandwich bread, it reminded me of the breakfast sandwiches I would get in Taiwan. Service: Normal service for an Asian style bakery, you get the bread yourself and pay at the register. Ambiance: A chill ambiance inside with a few tables. Enough to have a small group, but not exactly roomy enough for larger groups.

Last Sunday, I wanted to happily buy a cake for Mother's Day but after I already paid as price tag was shown. The owner suddenly came over and said there was an extra charge because it was a "Mother's Day Special" . Apparently "Special" means rising the price by surprising their customers. Honestly, if there's a holiday surcharge, I would truly understand! But it should be clearly stated before payment -- not after. Very disappointing experience. I only bought it because my mom loves mango cake, but I definitely won't be coming back again I am pretty certain that you're not allowed to raise the price on an item already paid for. It's not the money. It's the principle. This is unethical.

Also cool how it's attached to like an anime store, so you can do some eye shopping while waiting around. As for food, I think the dessert was ok. The kakigori was honestly a bit flavorless. I think honestly some condensed milk or just more sweetness/syrup can make this better. Just tastes like it's missing something. And the pancakes are decent. Honestly, I thought the mochi ice cream was the best thing there in my opinion. Also, the food took SO long to come out. Waited at least 20 minutes but it's calm. Have yet to try the food here but will probably be back because my friends like the vibe of the interior. Will update you once I do!
