Through the years this was the place to go for bakery items in Chinatown, but if I have to be honest, the customer service lacked any kind of helpfulness or positivity and the atmosphere of the bakery has always kept me doubtful on my next return. The items rarely changed, and it was very limiting .Thank goodness more bakeries have opened up. It's kind of sad that they have not maintained the store or updated it to keep up with the growing trend. read more

My friends and I randomly came upon this after eating nearby. Its located in the Chinatown Plaza of Las Vegas. It is located in a quiet surrounding which was a bit sketch but it was a great decision! We grabbed a tray and stocked up on a lot of their baked goods! We got a wide variety of goods ranging from the hot dog bun, sponge cake, pineapple custard bun, pork buns, and more. The prices here are definitely more pricier than it is back where I am from. There wasn't much business within the actual bakery, so I was kind of expecting the goods to be bad, but the buns aren't that bad at all! My friends and I ended up stopping by again to stock up on more baked goods for our road trip to Cali! There is a minimum charge to be able to use your credit card. So be sure to bring cash! read more

Diamond Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

The sweetest people, so accommodating with orders. Their coffee rolls are absolutely delicious and they always sell out. I've been coming here since I was a little girl and their bread and pastries continue to be the best I've tasted. read more

First of all this bakery deserves more stars. I was first hesitant to come here and preferred to go to a bakery at the next retail complex as it has better reviews on Yelp. However, after I got to that bakery, there were not many things to choose from and nothing was either warm or fresh. So reluctantly I followed my husband to Diamond Bakery instead. To my surprise, 90% of breads & buns were fresh and some were even still warm when I got there. All were calling me to pick them and place them on my tray I ate a warm sweet bun with custard and salty egg filling on the spot and it was heaven!! We grabbed a box full of bread to-go and we were ready en route to Grand Canyon. read more

This place has been in Las Vegas for years and the original Chinese bakery in town. It is connected to the Chinatown mall. They have a great variety of items that are steamed, baked and fried. Everything that you are looking for with old school Hong Kong classics and more modern Taro options. Two kinds of egg tarts, chicken and BBQ pork flaky pies, steamed chicken and BBQ pork baos, baked buns of every kind including chicken, BBQ pork, hot dog, coconut, cream, ham and eggs, cheese, red bean, pineapple. There are Chinese cakes by the slice or you can order whole ones for special occasions in mango, strawberry, taro, green tea and more. They have classic jelly/cream cake rolls and almond cookies! Get here early before they sell out of some items. This place reminds me of my childhood and visits to San Francisco Chinatowns. I know a lot of people are going for the new Asian bakery trends but this place still makes the Hong Kong classics that is now a dying art. Please support these long-standing family businesses! read more

Diamond Bakery - Ham and Egg baked buns, steamed BBQ pork bun, baked hot dog bun - Bakeries Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

you better close your bakery!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My order was cancelled after 45 minutes of waiting It will take 5 days before I can get my money back to my account read more

TLDR- I ordered a birthday cake, they got the order wrong, and the staff actively said they wouldn't do anything about it. I ordered a mango mousse cake for my brother's birthday. After driving all the way from north Las Vegas to pick it up, I received a cake with a plain whipped cream frosting and fruit on top--absolutely nothing like what I ordered. The frosting was sickly sweet, the cake was dry, and the fruit was either canned or severely underripe. When I called to tell them they had placed the wrong order, they claimed I had ordered the wrong cake on the phone. I am sure I placed the order correctly because I order this cake every year. They then proceeded to make absolutely NO effort to rectify the situation. It ruined our birthday celebration and my brother was very disappointed to not have received his favorite cake. Will not go back ever again. They obviously have no regard for customer satisfaction. read more

An "Asian cake" differs from any cake you can get at the grocery store in that it is much lighter in density and sweetness. The frosting is not overly sweet. Diamond Bakery is my go-to for Asian cakes for birthdays and holidays. I've been going here for as long as I can remember! Don't expect your cakes to be beautifully decorated, though. Even the frosting around the cake will be very imperfect. But it's fine if you don't look too closely. Service is iffy at times. Anyway, taste is good, and it's not super expensive (~$30 for an 8in cake). Other pastries are available, such as coconut cream buns and egg tarts. Come earlier in the day for these, as they'll run out! read more

This bakery has been around for years and I've been coming here with my fam since I was a little kid. They have a pretty good selection of desserts and sweets treats. I highly recommend getting their vanilla roll cakes. It's bomb! Other bakeries make it too dry or not as flavorful, but Diamond Bakery has one of the best. They are also able to do customizable cake orders. As for their savory treats, the chicken or pork steam buns are very popular. Towards the end of the day, they tend to be sold out!

(2/23/2019) Stopped in to pickup some teatime snacks for a trip into the Valley of Fire, Nevada state park, later in the day. Got a variety of fave stuffed buns, taro, red bean past, hot dogs (!!), pork floss. Bread is like a light brioche (eggy, milky, not too rich), buns were sufficiently filled without overflowing. Individually wrapped and portable. Prices reasonable. Perfect for the purpose. read more

Diamond Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

From the first bite I took of their Chinese style baked goods I knew I'd return despite having to walk several miles to and from my hotel on the Las Vegas Strip. In the world of Chinese bakeries I think Diamond Bakery is pretty darn good and very much comparable to one of my San Francisco Bay Area favorites Sheng Kee Bakery. Surprisingly I had very little soreness from running in the Rock n Roll Las Vegas 1/2 Marathon just about a dozen hours earlier on Sunday night, and since I considered this a vacation I definitely wasn't about to sit around in or near my hotel like a couple of my friends decided to do. A long, leisurely walk was in order so I chose Chinatown having never really explored the area before. After an exploratory visit inside a Ranch 99 Asian supermarket yielded zero results as far as finding something to snack on I came upon the Diamond Bakery and a nice 4 star rating on Yelp. Yelp friend Matt G and the Las Vegas Yelpers' rating did not disappoint as I gathered an arm full of individually wrapped pastries to take with me on my walking journey. Everything I tried during my walk I liked from the Baked BBQ Pork Buns to the Chinese Rice Tamales to the Pineapple Buns, and by the time I returned to my room I still had food left over. I whipped out my camera and captured what I had later in the day. Japanese Style Hot Dog Bun (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/IcOvxejpd5FLFIkj20Opqg?select=Mw5zFwaUWjAwE04lrwRTMA) - I feared this would be a bit salty, but it wasn't at all. I would easily buy this one again. It's braided bread dough that forms the bun and houses a quarter inch slice of hot dog inside each braid. Topped with a crispy layer of cheese my only wish was having some yellow mustard to smear on it. Red Bean Bun (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/IcOvxejpd5FLFIkj20Opqg?select=lQxtG3VxFBndCvv-yVGY7w) - Stuffed to the gills with lumpy red bean paste this was easily one of the best red bean buns I've ever had. In terms of volume I'm definitely certain there was more red bean than there was bun in this pastry. Make sure you pop a Beano or two before devouring this one! Winter Melon Cake (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/IcOvxejpd5FLFIkj20Opqg?select=3gP1L6c1YWXWtGKTbk3cqw) - The super flaky pastry was very good and the winter melon filling was chewy but rather sweet. The amount of filling was also quite generous. I did detect a bit of coconut mixed in with bits of crunchy melon in the filling and that kind of made it a miss for me not really being a fan of coconut. This was probably the one thing I would not buy again, but 1 out of 6 ain't bad at all. read more

A Chinese bakery do exist in Las Vegas...Yay! Located in the Old Chinatown Plaza approximately 5 driving minutes away from the strip, I feel like home now when I ran into this bakery for a quick breakfast before my own work related project. They have the popular Chinese pastries and other desserts. Some of the pastries are self-serve and wrapped up in a package similiar to Sheng Kee. The bakery also have sweets and customized cakes too. Unfortunately, the bakery is not as dazzling or updated like Sheng Kee or Paris Baguette. I had the Cheese and Hot dog bun. I'm not sure what that pastry is called, but I've never seen it before. For $1.50, this pastry tasted crunchy and fresh. The cheese tasted like a Asiago cheese bagel from Noah's. Very unique texture and with the hot dog, it was very appetizing in the early morning. My treat: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/IcOvxejpd5FLFIkj20Opqg?select=1Ag-WnBvzJVPh2xeFjTYig I feel like I'm home with bakeries and businesses in the Old Chinatown Plaza. read more

Large shop just outside the Chinatown mall- the staff speak limited English, but most items are clearly labeled so you can find what you need. The heated buns (bbq pork, etc) are at the counter, FYI. I found the savory options to be better-tasting and better-executed than the sweet ones, but that may just be a personal preference. STANDOUTS: Chicken pie (it's like a chicken pot pie, in biscuit form, with lots of juicy dark meat chicken!) and Portuguese egg tarts (thick crust keeps the eggy custard safe even if you're grabbing to go!). Both of these were good enough for me to consider coming back JUST to get them, despite disappointment with other items and overall service. OTHERS: The bbq pork buns (dough and filling were a little sweeter than I like, but they were nicely filled), green onion beef roll? (bright, robust onion taste to the roll but dry breading and didn't care for the flavor of the filling at all), taro/red bean/coconut bun trio (amount of filling wasn't consistent, taro was the best of the options). Service is nearly nonexistent, no greetings, assistance, or smiles. $5 card minimum (with fee), $8 minimum (w/o fee) is a bit inconvenient. I did not like how my card was taken out of my line of sight to be processed- not sure why the credit card machine would be located on the back wall behind the pastry case rather than adjacent to the register where the customer can monitor activity. read more

Items Selected: Date Paste Walnut Bar Black Egg Bun Yam Bun Red Bean with 1 Egg Yolk Moon Cake Raisin Bread Pudding 3 Combo - Red Bean, Taro, Custard Egg Custard Portuguese Egg Custard Located in an International Shopping Center on Spring Mountain, one of those places where one can invest in any number of statues or costumes mass produced overseas while also culling a few ornate originals from actual artisans, it was on the advice of a local restauranteur that a stop was made to Diamond Bakery and although not the cheapest spot in town for traditional Chinese pastry the results far outstripped the majority while service, too, proved far more devout. Large in size and far less cluttered than most, the pastry case to the left with bagged goods on the right, the selection at Diamond rivals the layout with no less than sixty different options on offer, a notable lack of overlap in ingredients with selections reportedly changing day to day. Based out of California, but offering several hot items and cakes baked on site, it was after much browsing and several questions that an order was elected and with eight items bagged to enjoy at a table outside the $20.33 tab was comprised almost 1/3 by the ornate moon cake, the dense red bean paste just barely sweetened around the hard cooked egg yolk while two styles of egg tarts were each equally low on sugar, instead opting to let the buttery shell and more savory custard notes shine. Moving on to bread pudding, a dish that simply cannot be passed up wherever it might be found, suffice it to say that the raisin-studded block was a bit too cool to be enjoyed straight from the cooler, and even when warmed up later neither the texture nor flavor was particularly up to snuff. Put off by the bitterness of date paste that was unfortunately rendered a bit gritty by too much ground walnut amidst the fruit, the goods once again found footing in a trio of supple breads, the 'black egg' version a truly one-of-a-kind flavor marrying sweetness to funkiness and soy sauce while both the yam bun and "3-combo" featured all sorts of fluffiness with a variety of natural flavors packing the core. Certainly not the sort of place channeling America's Sweet Tooth with its work, Diamond Bakery is the sort of place where an interest in less typical flavors is rewarded, the customer service amongst the best of its kind in town read more

Went in here today looking for pork buns. I waited in line and when I got up to the front I asked if they had any pork buns or bao. Apparently I look like an ax murderer because the girl behind the counter was practically trying to get away as she said that they didn't make them. Another older employee was very short with me and said they don't have them. I asked if they happened to know of any place that sold them. I was met with a short "no!" and then ignored. Not cool. I like how they said they didn't make or have them when there's tons of pics of the buns on their Yelp page... read more

Their tiramisu is too sweet for my tastes. Not the worst that I've had but far, far from the best. Here are the other negatives: * $10 minimum on credit/debit orders (blah) * the buns are made with enriched flour. That's not uncommon but it is a pain because I am allergic, so I can't eat any of the wheat-based items. So, on aggregate, I'd say this is not one of the better bakeries in the area. EDIT: Ok, my impression got worse from there because I'm pretty sure the tiramisu was also loaded with a bunch of preservatives and/or other junk. It tasted a little...off. Not just too sweet, but off. And like it just came out of a freezer, and was stale. Just disgusting. I'll be throwing out the other two items I purchased from here. Gross. read more

Another Chinatown classic that I have been frequenting for years, from well before the Yelp era. A great selection of Asian breads; sweet and savory, the Japanese Hotdog bun is my favorite. A nice selection of French style pastries as well, although I'm not personally a fan. Goes very well with a milk tea from nearby stores! read more

The Skinny: great when you get here around 10:20 am when stuff is fresh from the oven... otherwise you might have a lot less things to choose from (3.75), service: good - if you don't see something, ask the ladies and they'll find it for you in the back (3), value: pricey but will satisfy your Asian bakery fix (3) The first couple of times I came here, I wasn't really impressed. The counters were pretty bare in the afternoon and I walked out empty handed. Then, for whatever reason, we stopped by this place at 10:20 am. I was shocked. They had Portuguese Egg Tarts (a Macau specialty - egg tarts with a golden brown topping from the extra sugar), Curry beef puffs, butter pan loaves, Taiwanese type sammys, rice dumplings. It was like a completely different store. The Portuguese Egg Tarts are okay. I find the filling to be nice, but there are problems with the pastry. Not quite the shortbread crust, it's kind of a hybrid of between the flaky and cookie crust. The curry beef puff is good. The puff pastry is flaky and light while the curried beef is flavourful. The bbq pork puff pastry was ok due to the lackluster bbq pork filling. If baked buns are your thing, there is a caveat. I would say that the bun is a little on the drier side - okay when fresh but isn't that good the next day. For the buns without filling (ie, pineapple buns), you might find yourself a little disappointed. That being said, if you are a filling kind of person, you'll love this bakery because of the copious amounts of filling in their red bean and lotus paste buns. The steamed buns are great and hold up better (I've refrigerated them and resteamed them the next day and it's good.). Fav are the red bean steamed bun - lots of filling, nice lighter texture than what you normally see. I really love their butter pan loaf (I'm not talking about the butter pan buns... see the pic here because I have no idea what they really call it in English: http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=h9RUaaHa5kcQKqtJ-sgS0Q ). I got addicted to this brioche-like bread in Hong Kong from their famous Maxim's bakery. Although Diamond's cannot compare to Maxim's, it still is pretty good. Buttery and lighter than their regular bread, it iswonderful toasted with a little butter/jam. With some great things items, this is my "go to" place when I've a hankering for some Chinese bakery if I can get here when the bread comes out of the oven (10:20am). read more

I love the Diamond Bakery in LA Rowland Heights but this branch in Vegas is nowhere as good. The buns were still decent and they were probably the only items I could recommend getting. Had the BBQ pork, chicken, pineapple, ham/cheese and ham/egg varieties and they were all quite good. Texture is chewy and the fillings were tasty. You can't go wrong with that. However, the traditional Chinese pastries were really disappointing. The Taiwanese suncake was not fluffy and flakery at all. The green bean pasty tasted very mellow and the filling were rather dry. The other pastries didn't have the right flavors either. Just stick to their buns and you will have a better experience. Even better if you can score something fresh out of the oven. read more

Loved their cakes for years, but first time I noticed their section of savory stuff. We tried the beef curry, shredded pork w green onion, and bbq pork manapua/char siu bao. Each was around $1.50 and was pretty good. First place I've found homemade bigger sized manapua since the manapua shop on flamingo closed years ago. Admittedly not the best I've ever had, but beggars can't be choosers in this town. Its better than paying $3 for the mini bao at dim sum. The beef curry had decent flavor but texture of the beef was weird - looked more like dog food so just eat w your eyes closed read more

Awesome place for Chinese bakery goods! Come at 11 for their bbq pork buns! So big and so filling, it's not like those tiny ones you get at dim sum all the time.

Lots of authentic chinese bakery goods that will be very nostalgic if you've eaten this kind of stuff when you were a kid. And it's pretty clean! Great stuff!

I have been buying my birthday cake here for many years since I was 4 years old, as well as other cakes and pastries. However, my all time favorite is their strawberry cake. It's honestly the best strawberry cake I've had in Las Vegas and in my life (born and raised in Las Vegas btw). For some reason the strawberry cake they make his very moist and fluffy. It has a surprising custard-like taste in between the cake and it tastes AMAZING! It's as if I am eating Asia's version of the Twinkie. As far as the staff, they have been really great! I have never had any issues with them! Overall I highly recommend you check this place out and get their strawberry cake!!! read more

The round chocolate cake I ordered for my friend's birthday was one of worst cake I ever had in my life. I was so embarrassed watching my friends struggling to pretend that they liked cake. The cake was old, probably the same one I saw when I put in the order the day before. The cake tasted like the sponge I use to wash my dishes, except my sponge is softer. The icing was like pure powder sugar, it was grainy and oily. Last but not the least, they used this transparent pink color icing to write the name on top of the cake which was so idiotic. The writings blended in the beige color of the cake, and nobody cqn read what it said. I swear I won't go spend $28 for a terrible embarrassment again. read more

Hands down best freshly steamed Chinese BBQ pork buns in Vegas. And their size is huge!! It can barely fit in my hand. I was lucky to have bought a fresh batch that just came from the kitchen and the staff was busy packaging them. Yummy!! For the price of $1.99 each it was worth it. Plus they accepted credit cards which is also another star for my rating because most asian places only take cash which is a huge inconvenience these days. I was only browsing through and bought items on a whim. I did notice however, that this bakery also does cakes and wedding cakes as well as desserts and other small side snacks. If only I lived there I would try it all...... But the next time I come visit Vegas again I will be sure to stop by this hidden gem read more

When in today Monday 1/9/23 at about 1145am. Once I walked in, I read a sign saying buns at 1030 am so I was excited that they still had more in the case and I was assuming it was fresh since it was only 1 hour from arriving. I ordered 10 and I should've notice that they weren't fresh since they looked all flat and not puffy like how I used to buy it. I figured I eat one in the car while I take off. After biting in it, it tasted mushy and wet. It wasn't fully cooked or it was old. I had to split it out of my mouth. Now I've wasted money at $2.65 each. Never again stepping foot in there and I rather go down the street to Asian BBQ where it's freshly made!!! read more

Absolutely horrible. Their breads are so dry, cake was so flaky, service was definitely nothing near basic. We walked and all they did was stand around and talked. I ask them to pack my cake and they didn't even bother saying a word... And I seriously don't understand the whole charging fees for using credit cards??? Its so pathetic. Please do yourself a favor and don't get their ham&egg bread, so dry and lack in flavor. I will definitely never come back. read more

Yummy stuffed buns, manapua as we call it back in Hawaii. We stopped in with visiting family to check it out and there were plenty, just freshly made sitting on the shelves. The buns were fluffy and soft, the inside meat, the char siu filling was actually flavored like the ones we get in Hawaii. The pork was shredded and not chunks like we seen in other stores in Vegas, and the my favorite the baked ones were spot on as well. Newly discovered, this might be worth coming back in for, we do get family in all the time from Hawaii and one of things most requested is manapua, but since this is pretty close, we might be asking for something else! read more

My go-to place in Las Vegas Chinatown steamed BBQ pork buns and baked BBQ pork buns. The quality of their items is consistent the amount of BBQ pork in both the steamed buns and baked buns is reasonable and consistent. They almost always have plenty of the steamed buns and they are kept warm. The baked BBQ pork buns are not kept warm and run out faster so it is best to get there a little bit earlier if you like the baked type. They also offer various other products there. read more
