L-R: Peanut Bun, $2.05. Sesame Bun, $2.05. Matcha Almond Croissant, $3 (Total= $7.10)
Vic C.

This JJ Bakery is located in the same plaza as iTaiwan and Cluck2Go. My husband and I decided to stop by since I was in the area, two Saturdays ago. We arrived around 2:15 pm and there was already a short line by the register. After briefly looking around, we ended up choosing: Peanut Bun, $2.05- I really liked this bun, it was filled with plenty of chopped peanuts. But I did not like finding baking paper that was forgotten to be pulled off on a few bites and having to spit out that paper. Sesame Bun, $2.05- Luckily the black sesame bun did not have any baking paper when I ate this bun a few days after purchasing. But I did like this bun, as there was plenty of black sesame paste that was the perfect sweetness (of not being too sweet). Matcha Almond Croissant, $3- My husband had this the next day and enjoyed it. --------------------------- (Total= $7.10) Service was friendly. The 2 employees who helped us spoke both English and Mandarin. And what was nice was that they bagged our 3 items in a plastic bag and handed it to us after paying for it (I paid credit card and did not see a credit card minimum sign). The only reason why I bring this is up is because Sunmerry and 85C Bakery both charge $10 for a plastic bag so it was nice to see that this JJ bakery just gave us a bag for free (or that it is already built in the cost of their baked goods). Inside this bakery are a few tables and chairs, which is nice if you want to sit and chat with a friend/ family member and enjoy your purchase here. We ended up taking our items back home. If I was in this area again, I would stop by this location again.

Premium Pork Sung

At first glance you may think this is just another 85° type bakery, but its not. They do have similar things but the pastries are huge! I got a custard bun that was enormous! And some baked cheese bread which ive never seen before. My friend loaded up on the garlic bread and something with hot dogs i think too. The guys behind the counter were very nice. They have some beautiful cake assortments and drinks too. Even pork floss by the jar, which was so cool! It's a good sized space but i wouldnt call it a hang out spot. I would recommend going earlier - we were there mid afternoon.

Popped in to get a few snacks since I was in the area. They have a good selection of bakery items. A lot to choose from. I got in at a good time as the ones I picked were very fresh. The store itself is nicely laid out and neat. Everything was well packaged and placed nicely. I mainly got some pastries but they also have some cakes, which looked delicious. Service was straightforward. Wasn't too busy when I went but you can tell they move things along.

German Pudding, Cheesecake Stick, hot dog croissant.
Dashiell M.

We stopped by today after getting our delicious drinks from dumbstruck, and we were really happy we did! We tried the croissant dog, the German custard, and the cheesecake stick. The croissant dog was solid, but could use more flavor. The German custard was delicious. And the star of the show definitely had to be the CHEESE STICK! I will definitely note that if you use a mobility device that requires atleast 30 inches of width, it might be hard to get through. The aisle/s were extremely tight, making it hard (as a wheelchair user), to fit through. I would definitely recommend that they try to make these wider to be accessible to every person. The service was nice and fast. Straightforward and easy. It is divided into a grab and go bakery (similar to Paris baguette), and a sit-down restaurant. Very different than your "regular" bakery. There is a lot of seating and you do have to wait to be seated. I would describe the ambiance to be slightly fast paced, but very traditional. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much!

Strawberry Mochi
Allen L.

JJ Bakery has always been on the top of my list for Taiwanese bakeries in California. They started in Hacienda Heights and grown to several locations all over Southern California. Their flagship store just a few minutes away has Taiwanese breakfast that's fantastic. Today, I was just grabbing pastries so I went to the Rowland Heights location. I always get my usual Curry Beef Pie and Chicken Pie which they have at all their locations and after seeing a few tiktoks recommending the Mango and Strawberry Mochi, I had to grab those as well. Can confirm that those are delicious! Fluffy whipped cream, cake and mango or strawberry wrapped in a thin layer of chewy mochi. It's a must try! I was also excited to see they had Red Bean Salted Egg Yolk Pastries (Dan Huang Su) which are traditionally sold during lunar new year.

Tried out this location for the first time and it was an overall good experience. Bought some pastries and bao - nothing fancy - and they were good. Bakeries can be hit or miss, but what we got was fine. There seemed to be a pretty good selection of items and there were a good number of people at this location. I'll need to come back and try more to get a better feel for how this place is consistently, but so far so good.

Both pre-made meals top sticky rice ($10) bottom pork chop $10.75 cheap!
Katrina N.

I'm glad I got to visit a JJ bakery on my trip to Rowland heights. The JJ bakery in Irvine is not comprehensive as this one which provides desserts and a dining section for meals. The bakery section included the same items as any other JJ bakery so I'll go straight to the meals they serve. On the table near the front entrance, there were a variety of pre-made meals that were priced very well. We ended up picking up a sticky rice bento box with some pork strips and a flavored egg $10. We also grabbed this pork chop box that included 2 side dishes for only $10.75! Huge steal! Especially when we just picked up a pork chop rice from Monja Taiker from next door and it was $5 more and 5lbs lighter. The flavor of the porkchop wasn't the tastiest but I would do this again just for the great pricing. The sticky rice was really tasty!

Cream Puff Box (6 pieces)
Leilani M.

Wow! First time trying out JJ bakery and loved everything we tried. Cake was light and spongy. Filling layers were layered with precise ratios to cake. Visually these are beautiful but also tastes spectacular! It's the worst thing when they look so good but doesn't taste great. You don't have to worry about that here. It's gonna be delightfully delicious. Neatly packaged and ready to travel! No smeared edges upon arrival to destination. Thank you V&C

Mung bean mooncakes (only on Mid-Autumn Festival)
Joyce G.

Lots of variety of pastries to try. For this year's mid-autumn festival, I've gotten the mung bean moon cake. They were delicious and not too sweet. Service is great and fast. Place is alright.

Kelvin Y.

Good selection of baked goods including interesting breads. Fair prices. Each item is already individually wrapped- much preferred in my view. Service was fas, friendly and efficient.

The bakery is in a strip mall with plenty of parking. It's quite small in there and I can see that it could get crowded when it gets busy. On this day there were only a few patrons. It also looks like they have a rewards program We got Egg tarts, Bolo Bun, Matcha Bun, Red Bean Bun, BBQ Pork ?Bun, and Curry Pork Bun. Everything was good - good size, high qualty. Bolo had the perfect crisp. Buns were super soft and moist with lots of filling. Lots of places you have to take a few bites before hitting filling. These one; first bite! The only slight disappointment was the Matcha bun didn't have a super strong flavor. Staff were fine. You really have to go to them to ask questions as they don't come to you. It's a bit pricey but worth it. We definitely, we be getting more buns from them in the future.

It had been a long time since I had had them and was in the area. I was not leaving without stopping by. I finally found parking and walked in, they had their different bread on display with some having samples available for you to try. They are very casual grab and go type of place. I didn't find exactly what I was looking for, but got something similar. I got a chocolate roll cake and when going to checkout I saw these huge muffin looking like bread. The guy behind the counter was very nice and trying to explain to me what the were but he didn't speak much English, instead he called a younger person to help me and she was super friendly and helpful. I decided to try one and I wish I would've purchased more than one since it was so fluffy and tasty! I came back in a different occasion and the didn't have that fluffy muffin thing and it sounds like it's a Saturday thing. I will be back on a Saturday to try to get ahold of at least one.

Just getting into and around the plaza can be frustrating enough to make me think twice about visiting. Once you finally find a parking spot, Duke Bakery offers a good variety of pastries and breads. The portions are noticeably larger than those at 85°C Bakery, which is a plus. :)) Unfortunately, that's where my enthusiasm starts to fade. While the selection looks appealing, I found several of the breads to be on the dry side and lacking the flavor I was hoping for. Womp-womp. This location--along with their other shops in the San Gabriel Valley and Irvine--seems to follow a similar setup, but the service here felt a bit odd. When I walked in, no one was at the counter, and the employee was in the back, so I had to call out for assistance.

For this first trip, I found myself enchanted by the more traditional Korean pastries - the sweet potato creamy red bean bun, the curry croquette, the salt breads and rice crackers (one of their most popular items they said.) Most everything costs between $3-5. What a steal! I ordered their new item -- a banana latte made with their own banana syrup and cold foam to go with a double shot of espresso. It was tasty though seeing the old timers with their hot brewed coffees and bean buns made me wish I'd gotten something hot too. All in all, I had a great time at Cafe Bleu and can't wait to come back and try some new things. There are lots of tables and plenty of room to meet up with friends or work or do your homework.

One thing to note for anyone with nut allergies: although the ingredient label only listed almonds, there seemed to be other nuts present as we experienced an allergic reaction despite not being allergic to almonds.
