Crema's Take

JJ Bakery & Cafe is a casual Taiwanese spot where the pastries and cakes genuinely shine—reviewers rave about their taro red bean pudding cake and delicate fruit-forward flavors that hit the sweet spot. Beyond the baked goods, they offer an impressive spread of traditional eats like braised beef noodle soup and stewed pork belly at bargain prices, making it perfect for a quick lunch or casual meet-up with family and friends. The attentive service and affordable combo meals keep people coming back, though the savory items are a bit more hit-or-miss than their celebrated bakery case.

I never knew a traditional Taiwanese salted rice ball 鹹飯糰can taste this bad! I don’t think the merchant or their chef put in efforts to make a simple food tasting… 油條 aka deep-fried dough sticks inside of the rice ball is absorbed with oil and it’s definitely not a fresh!! Not to mention it’s not cheap too…🤦‍♀️

JJ bakery is a fast and casual Chinese eatery with a plethora of menu items and delicious foods for an affordable price. Today, I got the braised beef noodle soup. Despite being a chain restaurant and bakery, this is one of the best beef noodle soups you can find at this price range. The broth is rich and flavorful and the beef is tender and plentiful. Unfortunately the noodles were kind of average but for $12 I am more than willing to overlook it. I highly recommend!

Nice choice of cake, bread and snack. Cheap for lunch meal when dinning in. The combo worth the price, consisting of soup, vegetables, meat and rice. There are also other choices of some famous Chinese cuisine. The staff is really welcomed. And the dine-in place is clean enough but it is closed for Wednesday. Watch the schedule and come for the food.

The service here is phenomenal. The waitresses were very attentive and the food here is extremely good. I always get the stewed pork belly which is $6.99 from 11am-3pm on weekdays. The bento also comes with a bowl of egg and corn soup which they usually offer free refills on. The amount of food you get for the price is insane. The bakery is amazing. I’ve been getting bread here for several years now and they are always made fresh each morning. The egg tarts here are also pretty good. I also recommend the cold sandwiches and the rice balls.
