Owner lady name Kieu is very nice. They open at 11:30am, but I was in the area and called at 11am. She told me to come over anyway and let me in. I wanted to try the Banh Da Lon because it’s one of my favorite desserts. We ended up talking about me, my parents, her kids(bonding moment because I knew a little Vietnamese). When I left to my car, she ended up running out with a package of the Banh Chuoi for me to try for free. It was very sweet of her, totally made my day! :) The Banh Da Lon was good enough, I wish it was sweeter like I’m used to. The Banh Chuoi, my mom liked a lot — I think they are famous for this. And at $ 2 a tray, come on! What’s there to even hesitate about? Try it!

Excellent mom and pop style vietnamese family bakery! Sweet owners who work really hard to bring you fresh vietnamese desserts daily. Delicious fresh to order vietnamese rice cakes, banana cakes, banh beo w shrimp, da lon(green and yellow striped), steamed white corn with fresh coconut sugar and sesame seeds daily. They have a very great coconut sauce and roasted sesame seeds that are paired with the desserts, and the combination is perfect. The most popular desserts are the rice cake and banana cake. I highly rec’d this place. They also do special orders for any of the daily desserts, as well as banh it-chan, eggrolls, fried rice, and a wide assortment of vietnamese che. The most popular che that people special order are che xoi nuoc: a vietnamese dessert that is composed of mung bean paste inside rice flour in a sweet syrup, usually topped with special coconut sauce and roasted sesame seeds. Che dau trang, che bap are also very good. You would have to call in to order these items, as they are not available daily. Get a group of friends together and place an order, you will not be disappointed! They are generally open until 1:30pm or so. The reason why they close early is because they distribute to nearby Asian supermarket chains, so you can also get the daily desserts there. If you want guaranteed fresh desserts, swing by before then and grab a dessert! There is metered parking in front of the bakery, and a parking lot behind the bakery. So parking is never a problem. CASHONLY!

Delicious Asian baked goods and desserts, but the hours are oriented towards retail/grocery store buyers. If you can get to this place while it’s open, you definitely need to try some of the rice cakes, they are amazing(and yes they’re vegan).
