Mexico Bakery - Torta, choco flan, y Agua Fresca - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

This was the second time I stopped at this bakery on my way home. The first time everything was great, everyone enjoyed the pan dulce. I stopped this afternoon to pick up some pandulce. I ordered my bread and paid the cashier. Everything was $17.00 for seven pieces of bread (reasonable) I took my bread home to find the jelly roll slices at the bottom of the bag smashed and in pieces. I cut a cuerno in half and it was hollow. Like I said it could have been an off day because my first experience with them was good. Unfortunately I'm a bit jaded now. read more

Mexico Bakery never disappoints! I ordered the Milanesa torta and it was massive--seriously, this thing was a whole event. Packed with flavor, perfectly crispy meat, and loaded with fresh toppings. It was so big and satisfying, I ended up splitting it into two meals--and it was just as good the second time around. If you're craving a torta that's both delicious and worth every penny, this is the spot. Can't wait to go back and try more from the menu! read more

The tres leches cake itself was good, but I ordered it online and they didn't write Happy Birthday on it like I requested. The worker said the lady who does the writing is only there in the morning. That was disappointing because then it looks like I ordered a cake last minute and it didn't say Happy Birthday on it for my loved one. The lady was coughing as she brought the cake out from the fridge and put it in a box. She didn't cover her mouth at all. Parking can be a challenge. read more

I was looking for a bakery that will be able to make the cake my nice want it. I had bad experiences in the past and I wanted to surprise my niece with a cake that my daughter chose for her. I luckily found Mexico Bakery and not only that but RICARDO was the one that bake and decorated my cake. He called me and gave me some recommendations and changes regarding the colors and design that I chose. I told him to do whatever he thought it was better. I WAS AMAZED WITH THE RESULTS the cake was not only perfect in size and decoration but it was delicious. Ricardo make a tres leches cake with a layer of strawberries, and another layer of peaches.

I get these tortas (Mexican sandwiches) when I have guests from Asia. They're usually amazed at the sheer volume of meat in them. It's almost unanimous that they all love the Milaneza torta. Once while I also get the carne asada torta and during breakfast times I'd get the cubana. You can't go wrong with any of their tortas unless you did what I did - bring to the golf course. It's just too massive to eat on the golf cart. All of your friends will question what the heck it is, and you'll have to explain that this is the best torta in the Bay Area. If this is your first time, get the Milaneza or Carne Asada. The Milaneza is a breaded carne asade (beef). There's some garlic or cumin flavor that I can't make out but I assure you it's yummy. The rest of the torta consist of generous avocado slices, jalapeños, Mexican cheese and I think tomatoes. Although 1 sandwich can feed 2, I'd gladly finish a whole sandwich just because it's so delicious. This is a bakery but I am reviewing the tortas today. Their bakery is not my type of food as I find Mexican breads a little too sweet. It's a standard ambiance of a bakery. There is a cashier that takes your order and you pick up your food at the far end of the counter. Hope this helps your decision to visit here. read more

Came here for their torta and it's as good as I remember it. I got their cheese torta and it's huge! The bread is toasted and it comes with cheese, mayo, jalapeño, avocado, and tomato. The price is hefty, about $16 but you do get a drink with it. The pan dulce is also really good, I got a concha and it's fluffy, soft, and not overly sweet. They do have a few seats to have your meal there and there was parking. The service was great, the lady even gave us a sample of their taro drink and it was delicious! Highly recommend checking them out for some delicious food and pan dulce. read more

5 freakin' stars simply for Mexico Bakery's pan dulce!!! These babies always have me drooling for more... Shout out to my little sis for constantly raving about Mexico Bakery and my girlfriend who officially introducing me to all of this goodness. I actually had the pleasure of having my first bite a few years ago at a party the gf was throwing and I was immediately drawn to these vibrant, fluffy, and obviously stunning pastries. I kid you not, it was LOVE AT FIRST BITE. The concha [shell shaped pastry] was pillowy soft, sweet but not overly sweet, and crumbly coating on top was such an enjoyed contrast in texture. During that first encounter, I lost count of how many I actually ate & made sure to take one for the road. LMAO- sorry, not sorry. Each and every visit is met with the same high quality product, delicious tasting purchases, and guaranteed satisfaction. While I always tell myself to think outside of the box and venture out to new baked goods, I always gravitate to these beauties and have yet to accomplish my goal of veering from my norm. I hear MB's tortas are magical, maybe one day I'll be able to test out all the heavy hype... read more

A big fan of Mexico Bakery... but this one was just not it. I would come back here again but probably a few months later.... They had a lot of Rosca de Reyes which is a good thing! Here's my take on this though: the food. Service: 2/5. the people working at this specific location really need to check their attitude sometimes... I was literally rushed while in line, and the communication was just not there. Like please don't rush me while taking my order... it's just disrespectful. Do better. I was only going to order a champurrado... and they did have a lot of it left but... their attitude just made me feel really dismissed. Food: 4/5. The champurrado was good, the only thing missing was not enough piloncillo.... Otherwise it was okay. Atmosphere: 3/5. While parking isn't big and grand, the decorations for Dia De Reyes made up for it. read more

First timer at Mexico Bakery! Was recommended by my husband's barber to try the Milaneza Sandwich. That sandwich was pretty big... so big my husband and I could split it and both be satisfied. It came with a lot of meat and was very flavorful. Read a lot about chocoflan, so we picked one up with the sandwich. It was okay in my opinion. Overly sweet, but kinda dry at the same time. I would pass on the dessert next time around. read more

Tortas are smaller than they used to be and also marked up but still one of the best and freshest tortas you can get around. Their pan dulce is always to standard so can't complain. In t hospitality, consistency is key and this place has it. Lady's taking orders are always nice just don't expect them to fluff you up. Also a good place to get chips and treats imported from Mexico! read more

One of the most expensive panaderias for mediocre bread! They are selling bread no less than $2.30- all the common types of pan dulce like concha, elote, polvorones, cuernos are all that price and anything else is a bit more. I feel like every month or so they raise the prices a bit more! So disappointing! read more

Today was the first time getting cake from here it will however be the last. the cake itself was okay but what I didn't like is that they soaked it too much that it was soggy and fell apart when cutting into it.

I ordered from this location on Grubhub last night and could not be happier. Everything we got was so tasty and a good size for the price. - Tres Leches cake slice - surprisingly not too sweet and really delicious, definitely fulfilled my dessert cravings - Choco Flan - also very tasty without being overwhelmingly sweet - Pan Dulce - still soft and fluffy despite ordering at the end of the day I can't speak to the in-person experience but I'd definitely recommend ordering delivery from here. read more

Maybe if you guys are going to advertise a deal on social media for your tortas you should let it be known that there are apparently rules for this "deal" and not keep it a secret trying to scam customers into paying full price. Went to the Alum Rock location ordered two tortas total coming out to almost $40. Saw on their instagram story, while still waiting for my order to be made, that they have a deal 2 for 1 torta's Monday- Thursday. Brought it up to the cashier and she said the deal was not valid since it wasn't brought up when the order was made and she can't bring it up herself since it's her giving away food and losing money?? Then don't offer a promotion if your concern is losing money?? Ridiculous. read more

Decided to try tortas for the first time since living in San Jose and to make the long story short, my socks were knocked off! I definitely regret not trying it sooner! My coworker raved about Mexico Bakery and how great the tortas. I was sold and decided that I had to see what the hype was about! I went to the restaurant around 2 pm last week. When I arrived, I was met with the delicious smell of baked items that wafted through the restaurant. I was the only customer there which relieved me since it gave me the opportunity to ask questions tortas and the overall menu. I ordered the Milanesa Torta (breaded meat) with everything on it. I waited about 10 minutes for my order to be prepared and my excitement grew when the aroma of my food hit my nose! The first thing I noticed when I got my order was the size and weight of my torta. It was heavy and bigger than my hand! Once home, I was ready to dig in and with the first bite I was taken on an adventure. This may have been the best sandwich I've had in my life! All the ingredients were fresh and hot! I was only able to eat half the torta since it was huge, but it made for a great meal for dinner! I definitely recommend this restaurant if you're looking for baked goods or try something new in San Jose! read more

I was suggested this place from a coworker local to the area. I was told they have steak tortas that you don't wanna pass up. I'd be damned he was right.. located off of the 101 this place is easy to get to with a small parking lot in the back. Very clean and efficient inside you will find more than you came for. I'd have to say they carry the standard mexican baked bread goods but at a higher quality than 90% of places. Secondly, you're gonna be surprised to find out that they have an almost full mexican food menu as well. I will say that the chorizo burrito was greasy to the point that most people will not forgive or look past the puddle. Not for the weak at heart but lucky for you they have other options. The steak/asada torta to be exact is the numero uno reason to come here. Huge portion and even bigger flavor, you gotta try it.. Lastly I'd like to mention the staff has always been super nice, patient and makes you feel comfortable. That could be due to me pulling out my spanish to order but I'd like to imagine that everybody gets the same experience otherwise it wouldn't be so busy lol. I tell all my coworkers they need to check this joint out, spreading the word. I actually told a friend from socal/LA to try this while they're in town and he gave it the thumbs up so I'd put my name next to this establishment..lol read more

Went in for champurrado, didn't have any despite it only being 8, gave me another drink I wanted to try, made my stomach turn upside down after 3 sips because it had no flavor (legit atoll de Nuez doesn't use hazelnut vanilla creamer) legit could see the oil on top of it... Besides that they are polite, and the aesthetic is good, just never going again because of that... read more

I was craving some Mexican pastries specifically concha and saw this place on the way to a tire shop. I went during the afternoon on a Friday and it was not packed at all. They had a wide assortment of pastries, cakes, burritos and various other food items. I mainly focused on the pastries while there. They all looked pretty fresh. They had different flavored conchas like chocolate, vanilla, mango, strawberry and more. They also had different sizes and shapes. There was amole seating inside but no seating outside. There is also limited parking but on the weekday there were not many people so was not a concern of mine. I brought the conchas to go. They were pretty soft on the inside and not stale at all. I however decided to warm them up a little just to make them a bit softer and and they were good. I would go again and try the other pastries next time. read more

My son and I went to a quinceanera a few weeks ago and the cake was from this bakery, Mexico Bakery. It was unbelievably delicious... Pineapple and coconut something with tons of fruit of fluffy deliciousness! I will never forget how good it was! Then on Friday, my boyfriend and I got the opportunity to check it out. We tried several things... the pastries and carne asada quesadilla were all good! Now that I've seen the pictures of the Carne Asada torta, though, I kind of wish we would've tried that. Next time! See you there! read more

Mexico Bakery - Delicious torta! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

Totally a hidden gem. A low-key traditional Mexican deli/bakery place with great food, friendly service, a lot of food, (huge and tasty portions), and different kinds of pan dulce (Mexican pastries). You can't be wrong in this place, try whatever you want, and be prepared to enjoy every single bite and have a food coma after your breakfast/lunch/dinner, and of course, come back over and over again to try more items of its menu. Yesterday, for lunch I had: - Torta de huevo (egg sandwich with avocado, tomato, panela cheese, and pickled peppers) - Torta de milanesa (steak sandwich with mayonnaise, avocado, tomato, onion, lettuce, and panela cheese) - Fresh orange juice - Coffee read more

Delicious tortas and bread! Rebanadas are the best. Butter on both sides and the softest I've found in the area.

Where do I start... there are two doors to enter the establishment and no organization or signs letting you know where to order and where to pick up. So customers get confused and cut in front of one another. I ordered a polvoron, empanada de crema and a torta de milanesa. I wanted to see what the hype was about with the tortas. I was utterly disappointed. In terms of quantity the torta is huge, way too big to even bite. In terms of flavor the milanesa was soggy and meat was super tough. I barely ate half and tossed out the rest. The torta was a whopping $17! and with the other 2 pieces of bread the total was $22. The empanada de crema was good, hence the 2 stars. Unfortunately I was not amazed enough to be back. read more

Instagram made me do it. I didn't even know what a torta was until I saw someone posted about it. Mexico Bakery is known for their cakes and tortas. They have a few choices of protein to choose from for your torta {steak, chicken, or fried chicken steak}. I got the "Milaneza torta" {toasted sesame buns, chicken fried steak, tomatoes, avocado, jalapeños, mayo, white cheese, no onions} ~$12.50; card accepted. Wait times was about 10 minutes. Parking is horrible tho... good luck. They have a few other locations too! Definitely bang for your buck! Portions here are ridiculous! Torta the size of your head! I appreciate how they cut it in half for you. Literally half of it is the size of a regular burger. I could only finish half of the torta and I saved the rest for later. So filling and meant for sharing. Resembles a compressed styled burger/sandwich but with a Mexican twist! Love how all the ingredients complimented each other in one bite. Liked how there were jalapeños to give it some spice! Nicely pressed torta. I want to try their steak torta next time! Gracias! read more

Mexico Bakery - Milanesa torta - Coffee & Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

What peaked my interest in coming to Mexico Bakery was a Tik Tok video by Daafambam. The Torta and pan dulces looked so good I stepped out of my comfort zone of the streets of Oakland and San Francisco. And it was totally worth it! The parking lot is tiny, only about 6 cars can fit in this lot. Due to Covid restrictions, a total of 4 people are allowed inside the bakery. The toughest part is that there is so many choices when it comes to pastries and cakes, that I felt overwhelmed by all the amazing options. So we settled on: Milaneza Torta and Carne Asada Torta: the tortas are the size of my head. I enjoyed both but much preferred the Milaneza Torta. All the flavors from the Mayo to the onions, avocado, cheese, tomatoes, and meat really blended well to make an awesome torta. But you may need to slightly unhinge your jaw to fit the whole cross section into your mouth. If you don't open wide enough, it'll create a tectonic shift in ingredients and you'll find half the ingredients on your lap. Tres Leches Mocha: the mocha flavor is very light. This may be the best tres leches cake I've ever had. It's worth coming just for this. Conos con crema: I would describe this as a Mexican cannoli. It's light and flaky on the outside and the cream inside is awesome. Oreo cake: it's ok. It's chocolate cake. Pretty standard but I probably wouldn't get it again. Chocolate Flan: fabulous. Worth getting. It's chocolate flan, what else needs to be said. There was so many options, I wish I had a bigger appetite and tried everything. But just from what I tried, Mexico Bakery has enough sweet and savory to satisfy all your Mexican food cravings. read more

The torta cubana is huge. It's definitely something to share or save half for later. The chorizo and hot dog stand out mostly in the sandwich. The rest of the ingredients are there to prop them up. I think the pork tamale was pretty good. Maybe a little thick with the masa but at least that part was tasty too. read more

Tortas!!! Seriously. I rarely eat tortas, but when I crave it I only get them from Mexico Bakery. My go to is the Milaneza (breaded steak) or the Cubano if I'm feeling like a fat kid. They load them up. The prices are more than reasonable and it never disappoints. Albeit they do get messy because it gets so loaded. Sometimes, I also treat myself to some chocoflan cake. My husband likes their donuts and assortment of pastries. In my opinion, a San Jose institution. read more

I had tamales here for breakfast very good flavor, they do need to balance out the meat/masa ratio because it was mostly masa. Every pan dulce I have tried has been really good, soft and fresh.
