Pretty good local bakery within Chinatown Oakland. We were able to buy some delicious goodies to bring home from our trip to Chinatown. It is a smaller bakery with a good selection and hot coffee! Service was good and quick despite the lines due to social distancing during the pandemic.

Ruby King is a hole in the wall bakery, overshadowed by the Napolean bakery up the block. Ruby King has some amazing, flaky, egg tarts ($1), bbq puff pastry and curry beef puff pastry. They are best when you get them early in the morning when they are still hot. You have to ask for the egg tarts, they are not on the display shelf. Their mini apple pie is pretty good too with chunks of apples inside. Great customer service.

Boichik Bagels, Rotha, Bouchon Bakery. Places I wished were opened closer to me in San Francisco. Right along that list is Ruby King. Egg tarts are top notch! Grab a cup of milk tea, a cocktail bun, a ham and egg pastry and you have yourself a great breakfast! Add a white egg tart for a morning or afternoon treat!

We were surprised to see such a change in neighborhoods from one street to the next! This area is awesome! So cultural, so many different smells and sites! This little bakery fits in perfectly! The people here are so nice! I got the almond muffin and cookie and they were delicious! The prices here are also very generous! It was less than $2 for both items I purchased! They also have savory items. My Mother got one of their meat pies and it was also delicious. I would definitely recommend going here and will be back!

I always come here for birthday cakes. Tell them what you want written on it and it's done! Tasty, not too sweet and light. Perfection every time and theyve been doing it for decades. And as far as Chinatown goes, the ladies speak pretty good English.

This is like the East Bay version of Golden Gate Bakery but.. actually better. The egg tarts never fails and the beef curry and BBQ pork puff pastry are very good. Best part is, they are hella reasonable price.

This shop has really good egg tarts with super flaky crusts. If you're going to get egg tarts in Oakland, this is the place to go! As of March 2020 they're $1 apiece.

Good food with authentic chinatown atmosphere. ie low prices, no frills, authentic traditional, not for those expecting hipster boutique experience with packaging that cost more than the food. Cash only place. Most items less than $1 or $2 at most.
