Crema's Take
“TMJ's cake donuts are the real draw here—reviewers consistently rave about the excellent quality and surprising restraint with sweetness across flavors like almond, cinnamon, and chocolate—making this the kind of spot worth a detour for pastries alone. The full breakfast menu and fresh baked goods throughout the day keep it packed with regulars, though service can be inconsistent depending on who's working the counter. If you're after straightforward, quality donuts and a solid breakfast in Compton, this is your spot.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. Quick-grab spot. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.

Ordered bacon egg and cheese $10+ no lettuce no tomato. Bacon was already cooked and a bit hard.Guy behind the counter was just tossed my sandwich on the counter. Maybe caught him on a bad day. The doughnuts looked good
Good doughnuts! The almond one has a nice crunch and is medium sweet. The cinnamon one is surprisingly light on sweetness! The oreo one was a bit sweet. They're all pretty fluffy and overall very good!
I've been living in Gardena since 2006 and this is definitely the best cafe we've had. I've only been here 3 times but every single time was amazing. Their menu is huge but breakfast is my favorite and I can't resist. I also have a weakness for donuts and those are great here as…
