I bought this bread on Sunday 04/26, today is 04/30 and it was MOLDY. The exp date on the bag is 5/09. I'm disgusted, actually took a bite of this until I realized it wasn't a part of the bread I'm so sad because I thought I found a new spot I could buy my Filipino snackies from. Edit: Thought I uploaded the pictures. read more

Their bibingka is my favorite, I love the crisp of the baked rice exterior and the creamy inside. The bakery feels so Filipino in the best way possible--so many baked goods for trying. I appreciate this business for always having the perfect baked goods that reminds me of the times I was back in the Philipines. Service is well, no complaints. So if you are in search of bakeries in Carson that are near Carnegie MS, this is a wonderful place to stop by with so many filipino treats options on display and prepared for you. Thank you Jbj's Bakery for a wonderful experiance. read more

Their pandesal is always fresh . I like them with my eggs corn beef etc for breakfast.

Favorite place to get filipino food and baked goods. Been going here since I was a child :)

Don't buy the food like this. This are their leftovers and put to the fridge and then put it outside. Then put it back again in the fridge. It's old. They should cook new everyday. Panis na !!!!!!! read more

Jbj's Bakery - Old refrigerated Pansit Canton. I got this thought it's new but it's cold. - Bakeries Near Me - Carson, California

They take card here and the pastries are fresh. The buns are fluffy and are good for the next two days from purchasing. Parking is easy in the lot. read more

The older lady was rude... she barely even spoke to me. I got the pork bun and when I went to eat it in my car, I realized it was very, very cold. I'm pretty sure they've given it to me before asking if I wanted it warm... I wouldn't come back. read more

The lady didn't deserve my non-Filipino husband's effort to say "magandang umaga" the whole time we were picking out our pastry, her with a long face and her attitude like we're a bother to whatever she's doing. Didn't deserve my $24 worth of crap. The pastries are not good, waste of calories !!! The siopao is as cold as her. Never coming back. read more

Went for the first time today and everything I got was amazing. I will be coming back more to try more of their goods. I can't wait to see what else they have. read more

The Good 1. They bake everything on premises, not trucked in like Dunkin Donuts and a lot of Chinese Dim Sum places. 2. Friendly efficient staff 3. Good pan de sal, ube halaya (both better when heated), and various rice flour deserts like cucinta, sapin-sapin The Bad 1. Not fond of their turon: fried lumpia shell with burro or Saba banana with a teeny langka strip 2, Not fond of their ginataan: coconut milk and sugar base with various fresh and preserved fruits such as burro banana, ube, langka, etc. I would probably rate them 3.5 but rounded to 4. I totally support the smaller chains of bakeries, especially when they bake their own. There's a freshness that is lost when you sell day old or frozen then defrosted stuff (McDonalds and Carls Jr. bakery stuff as well as Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts and many Chinese dim sum places). Here you can see the employees in the back sweating near the ovens, stoves, and steamers so there is no chef fashion show like on TV. Today, the counter person was watching a Filipino entertainment show (which is more tolerable than the overly dramatic (someone is an infidel and/or dies Filipino soaps) gag) LOL/ Anyway service was prompt and friendly,. apologizing for selling out of some stuff I wanted. Their turon this day was too long and thin , and too much lumpia wrapper fried - it wasn't like that a few other times I'd been there. Am sorry I didn't take a picture but after two bites I tossed it. It is crispy and sweet with candied brown sugar. But inside I much prefer they use the larger cooking bananas, that when fully ripe, is sweeter and juicier than the hard, not too sweet smaller cooking (burro) banana they use. When I make it, the banana and larger langka pieces take over, here they're an afterthought. Their ginataan is pretty to look at. But again it's that hard banana and hard casava they use. I prefer it with the better big fully fully ripe cooking banana and orange colored more colorful and sweeter yams. And they're purple yam is too purple...Filipino manufacturers use purple dye too much. Why not leave it the color God hand intended? Otherwise, glad to see a real bakery,, not just a places that sells baked goods. read more

Jbj's bakery has been here for over 20 years! Jbj will always have a special place in my heart because that's where I met my best friend since 2nd grade and I love their baked siopaos since I was in elementary school. Jbj sells not only Filipino baked goods, but also Filipino food. My husband loves their palabok and their spaghetti. I always have to order 4 baked siopaos. They have baked and steamed pork or chicken siopao and you can't pick which one because they're both delicious. I also have to get kutchinta and leche flan because that's my husband's favorite, and you can't forget their pan de ube and FRESH pan de sal! Jbj not only has a special place in my heart, but also been a staple in my family. My dad loves their pianono which is like a Filipino sponge cake and their kepeng which is like a Filipino cracker with brown sugar. My lolo(grandpa) and my aunts stops by and gets their pan de ube which is a pan del sal with ube inside. Price is reasonable and the parking in the plaza can be a hit or miss depending on the time you go since there is a school near by. I recommend JBJ's bakery to anyone that wants or craves Filipino goods. There was a time where I was working night shifts in Downey, and I couldn't go home because I was craving for a siopao. So imagine..leaving work from Downey at 8am and head to Carson to get some Filipino goodies before heading home in Long Beach to get some sleep before working at night again...That's how good...Support local businesses! read more

Pretty good bakery for Filipino goods. I wouldn't have known about this bakery if not for Fiesta Barbecue and Bibingka that's located in the same strip. While I was waiting for my food at Fiesta Barbecue, I decided to step into Jbj's bakery and check them out. Get whatever is fresh out of their ovens or fryer. The ukoy, lumpia, and turon all make for great snacks. I've also gotten different things from their fridge or prepared foods section. read more

I only went here because I was waiting for my food at Poke Etc a few doors down. When I walked inside I saw the bread section against the wall. And I started grabbing things! Got the pan de sal bag. Pan De ube. Some jelly looking item. And the coconut puto. I didn't get to eat it till I got home. And then I started eating the bread at home by itself. Made sandwiches with it. Gave some to my kids. I cleared it all out. So good! read more

I come by this spot usually when stopping by at another local take out spot. I must say, the staff here is so nice. I came the first time and was just overwhelmed with everyone but the lady that helped me walked me through exactly everything I had interest in. So far everything I have bought, yucca cake, taro bread etc, have been amazing. The have such a great variety and looks like they also do cakes although I have yet to try one. They have plenty of parking since its a fairly large shopping center and I can tell it is somewhat of a family own business which during these times I love to buy from more than ever. I definitely recommend you stop by and visit and buy tons of their stuff. I will definitely be back myself! read more

First and last time going there ! Didn't notice it when I started eating it until I took the aluminum foil off. read more

Been to this place twice when visiting my doctor next door. I've had their Hopia hapon, ube/cheese pan de sal and pan de ube which were all good. I wouldn't say this was a place to go out of your way for but if I'm the area and want some Filipino baked goods then it's good. There are no prices listed anywhere though for anything which is a bit annoying but there's a sign that's says you will get charged $0.75 for any purchase if you use a credit card other than cash.The Hopia hapon is $4 each so that's like $1 per in a package for reference. It's a bit pricey so take it as you will. And when I bought the pan de ube, Hopia hapon, and ube cheese pan de sal my total was $11-$12. I've been to Red Ribbon Bakeshop and it was cheaper, so I'd recommend that place over this one if I'm being honest read more

They have the best hopiang hapon! But I went today, and they only have it on certain days. Pandesal is good too, but not as fresh as Valerios. I'm don't like the hopiang mongo, but the ensaymada was excellent! 11-4-2019 read more

I happen to walk in here bc I smelled sweet bread. I was greeted by customers and employees because I am pretty sure many black people don't come in, bc it's an Asian bakery; but it was a pleasant experience. These purple yam rolls, Ooommmggg. I tasted it on my way out to my car,by the time I got to my car, I went back and bought another pack. So addicting. It comes with 6 rolls for $2.60.. not a bad deal. A lot of homeless people can be feed . Buy one for you and the other for someone less fortunate, so at least someone can enjoy the rolls like you will . read more

My kids (8 and 12 yrs) and I tried several treats from this bakery today. The woman that helped us was lovely and was so willing to let us know what the treats were because this was our first time tasting Filipino dessert/bakery. The cassava cake was wonderful! The kids both liked it too. Great texture and not too sweet- just right! The pastilles were more neutral, lightly sweet. My 8 yr old LOVED these! We also tasted the turon. It was a little chewy from the sugar on the outside which I think is really tasty. The pan de ube was a huge hit with all of us. We will definitely be coming back for more! Thank you Jbj's staff for being so welcoming and willing to help us learn about the delicious food the Philippines has to offer! read more

I love this place the bread is great and the cookies are great. If you like pastries you should eat here

My kids love the pandeube, bibingka, eggrolls, empanada, and chicken roll. Great for school lunches or work.

We have been coming here for years, mostly for the pan de sal and whatever snacks we see that we want at the time. That is why this pains me to write this! Lately my sister has been getting some puto, and hopia on top of our regular order of pan de sal. Maybe it is just me, but the quality of the pan de sal has lowered from what I remembered it being. In addition, we found mold in a package of the hopia the day after we purchased it. My sister still continues to come here, but I myself will not. read more

Delicious pan de sal with large rolls. Easy to park and visit the bakery. I want to try their other pastries next!

Best macarons in the South Bay. Clean but small establishment Friendly and helpful staff Delectable baked goods, bread and other Pinoy dishes Reasonable prices Love that they have whole wheat pan de sal. South Bay's best local go-2-place to satisfy my Pinoy cravings. read more

Huge mistake if you are looking for good macrons. While everything looked really nice I purchased several flavors of macrons and was so disappointed. They fell apart when I picked them up and the flavor was not as I anticipated. Big disappointment read more

So amazing. Authentic bakery with some traditional Filipino food as well. Love the empanadas and ensamada! My favorite is the fried lumpia which tastes just like my grandma/Lola used to make. You will not be disappointed. read more

Bag of fresh pandesal and a bag of pan de ube. Every time we go. This is non-negotiable. Today we added turon and arroz caldo and bibinka and ube padesal. Cup of coffee at the house and Sunday mornings get no better. read more

I stumbled onto this place while waiting for the uniform store in the same shopping center to open. I'm glad I yelped this place while I was sitting in the parking lot, otherwise I probably would not have gone inside. The gentleman I was greeted by in the store was pleasant and helpful to this first timer, for which I was extremely appreciative. The smell upon entry was welcoming as well. For a person like myself who does not eat beef or pork, I had been fiending for the taste of bao. All of the local places I would attempt to order from seemed to relish the addition of putting pork sausage in chicken bao - which totally defeated the purpose if you ask me. I finally found a place that satisfied my crave. Their chicken bao is not only pork free, but it is DELICIOUS! So much so, I ordered half a dozen to take home. Their chicken empanadas are awesome as well, and while they are about half the size of Red Ribbon empanadas, you can't beat the price ($1!!!). I've also never seen vegetarian lumpia. Theirs is sooo delicious!! Again, can't beat the price ($1!!!!). I would definitely recommend this place to EVERYONE! And plan to return myself in the very near future. read more

It's only the 6th of March and the loaf is already coated with molds. Check out the expiration date stickers on the right side. They obviously tried to remove the older ones but failed then decided to just top those with stickers with later dates. If anything happens to my family especially my baby, you'll surely hear from me. read more

Went to this store 9/27/22 to try their halo halo. I saw that they also sell variety of macarons. I told the cashier (maybe late 40s to early 50s. Filipina. Shoulder length hair) that i want 1PIECE of ube macaron. while she was charging me there was a bum that went inside the store. The store is so tiny that the bum is literally behind me and the other customer. The cashier doesn't look like she's gonna do anything so I am watching my back the whole time and just scanned my apple pay. Then I saw her put 1 tray of ube macaron in my bag. I told her that I just only wanted one and the whole tray. She told me that I said one and either way she cant make a refund. The ube macaron doesnt even taste like ube. Halo halo is good but customer service 0/10. Idk if shes just lazy or what. Wasted my $15. read more

Cassava thing: not my favorite..2 stars. Empanada: United bakery is better than this. 2 stars. 2.5 stars for JBJ Bakery. JBJ Bakery is not so yummylicious!! read more

*** This review is for their pan de sal ONLY *** I grew up eating pan de sal (Filipino dinner rolls). It was pretty much a staple for breakfast and "merienda" (Tagalog to English translation: "snack") and ironically, it was never used as an actually roll during dinner (because us Filipinos love our rice!). Now that I'm going off tangent, my boyfriend's grandmother was craving pan de sal and so we drove to the nearest bakery. JBJ's Bakery is located in a little stripmall across the street from Carnegie Middle School on Carson St. and Bonita. It's pretty much a block away from the 405S entrance towards Long Beach. I grabbed a bag of their mini pan de sal (regular pan de sal comes in a dozen), which comes in a bag of 15-18? (I didn't count). But the price is pretty much the same as the regular. I took a bite of one of the pan de sal's since it was snack time for me as well. I felt the texture of the bread wasn't there. The bread seemed a bit dry too. And typically the bread should have a hint of sweetness, but this batch tasted like it was plain old white bread (which it's not). When you rip a piece of the bread in half, whether it's fresh or a day old, the bread is supposed to be a bit more fluffy when you tear it apart - this wasn't happening at all! Boo and sad to say - no bueno! I can't really vouch for the other baked goods that are offered here, but I'm certainly not a fan of their pan de sal. I wouldn't go back here for the pan de sal. I recommend going to Tropical 'V' Bakeshop (near Seafood City on Carson & Main St.) for your pan de sal fix! I would come back to try out their other Filipino baked goods, hopefully it's better than the pan de sal! (crosses fingers) read more
