Yamasaki Bread & Cake Is Popular @ Little Tokyo (Los Angeles). Buy Ring Doughnut , Mini Cream Puff , Steamed Cheese Cake (Very Popular) , Steamed Buns (Curry Man + Niku Man + Taco Man) 😋 Luv It ! Worthy. Recommended.
The whole shopping area is a little slice of Japan, but the bakery really appeals to me. The pastries and cakes are great, much more subtle than the usual American fare.
My family wanted to explore little Tokyo town and we came across this dessert shop. I ordered everyone a slice of cake. I got the cheesecake but sadly this is the worst cheesecake I’ve ever had, it was super dry and it felt like sand, not the way it should taste, (this is the reason I give it a four star). I tried my husbands tiramisu and that one was super delicious, the cream is like a soft whipped cream. I also tried my kids tres leches cake and that one was my top favorite, I loved how it was lightly sweet and moist.
Had the read bean bun and cream bread. It was tasty! They have an arrangement of different pastries and desserts. Staff was pleasant and friendly.
Great place ! I love their fruit cake it isn't extremely sweet like other cakes. Its soft and light. also love their steam buns ,the employees are very friendly and helpful
Anything you get here is going to be a treat.
I HIGHLY recommend the chocolate cake and hot chocolate. It made me so happy.
My fiance lives the Curry flavored steamed buns.
Definitely don't miss this place
This Japanese bakery has so many delicious pastries as well as fresh baked breads.
I got the corn mayo bread which was a savory and soft bread filled with tangy mayo and sweet corn. It was the perfect balance and reminded me of cornbread if it was deconstructed.
The green tea roll cake was pillowy soft and had a nice cream intertwined between layers of spongy cake.
We also got some red bean as well as pork buns. These were incredible! So soft on the outside and mildly sweet bread, and the inside is filled with excellent flavors.
This is an excellent bakery in Little Tokyo.
I waited for over an hour for this place. I am a huge fan of Japanese bakeries and believe they are some of the best in the world. This one does not disappoint. It was reminiscent of bakeries in Tokyo. They have breads, pastries and steamed buns. I had the Curry steam bun and the pork and veggie steamed bun and they were delightful!! I ate one of each happily!! If this company would freeze them I would buy them and eat them frequently for lunch. I also tried the roll cakes because I'm a huge fan. I tried the green tea mocha and strawberry. All three were bomb!!
My first time trying anything japanese beside sushi lol. Decent little place. Beef steamed bun was good. The bun felt undercooked but wasn't. I think that was me who just don't know anything about authentic japanese food. I don't like the concept of reheating already made food thats why I didn't pick egg ham toast which looked old. Pizzas were cooked in the early morning and by 11 am looked old like cheese pizza by slice at 7 eleven lol. Service was good too. Thumbs up
Great stuff here! I really like the jalapeño and sausage bread. Also very good cakes and Japanese pastries!!!!!
Yamazaki Bakery is a must while in Little Tokyo weather it’s cakes, bread, coffee, cold beverage you won’t be disappointed the steamed buns are absolutely the best soft hot and fresh.
I always come here for their desserts and steamed buns. Everything is very fresh and staff is very kind. Every time I come here I order quite a lot as with the pandemic I do not come here often but my whole family loves their bakery so much I try to come a couple times a year. Also thank you very much to the kind lady who helped me out today she was very nice and attentive. Didn't get her name but she was wearing a gray sweater and was working today before closing.
