    Plenty of eclair options
    David A.

    Original creampuff Chocolate eclair Strawberry eclair The Original creampuff with the vanilla filling is the must try here. Plenty of eclair varieties and filling flavor options. Got the 6 pack box and the handle broke off on the way home. Luckily the creampuffs didn't fall out.

    Ube puff

    Beard Papa's is found within Tokyo Central in the food court. What is unique about Beard Papa's is that you get to choose puffs from a variety of options and choose between 4 flavors of custard filling. The service provided to us was very great with fast and attentive employees making sure they waste no time. The two employees working at the time were very friendly and helped us choose what to get. Eventually, we settled on the Ube puff with the vanilla custard filling. It was good, the outer ube shell was very delicious along with the vanilla custard. For the ambiance, as it's located within Tokyo Central, it shares its locations with many other restaurants packed together. The food court itself offers seats but it's nothing fancy or special. Good experience here at Beard Papa's. I would recommend it as it was very good.

    Located inside the grocery store of Little Tokyo

    Stumbled upon this spot while shopping in Little Tokyo. They have a wide selection of pastries and we wanted to try them all. Love that you select your puff and then select the cream you prefer inside. Flavors taste authentic and the puff dough was nice and flaky yet held its form well. Service was great. The young woman working was professional and kind. She gave great recommendations based on her preferences and what other customers enjoy. Ultimately we selected the honey puff with chocolate cream and the cinnamon puff with strawberry cream. Can't wait to go back and try other flavor combos!

    Classic cream puff

    Beard Papa makes delicious cream puffs. They have an assortment of shells and fillings which you can create delicious treats. These cream puffs stay firm, days after they're filled and still delicious. These make terrific sweet treats, gifts or a simple dessert. Next time you're thinking of buying a cake or pie, get a box of these instead, you'll thank me. The store front counter is right in front if you, its always clean and the staff are very polite. This is inside a Japanese market, you can shop for groceries and other food stalls too. There is plenty of parking in the lot.

    The original puff that I tried was nice! It tasted a bit different compared to a couple of years ago but overall it tasted fine. But then I tried the chocolate cream puffs and they tasted moldy..? I checked the puff for any exterior signs of mold but I couldn't find any thankfully, but it still tasted like mold. I even quadrupled checked to be sure. Hm, I don't know maybe it's just the refrigerator taste but oh well. A bit disappointed as now I have to dump the rest

    Strawberry cream puff filled with strawberry cream

    Have you ever looked at dessert and just could help but smile? Every time I have a cream puff from Beard Papa's that is my reaction. The giant choux pastry shells are dipped in chocolate and topped with a variety of toppings then filled fresh with a vanilla, chocolate, or green tea custard. This beard papa's is found in the little food court inside Tokyo Central and you can't miss it. Please try it if you're ever in the area.

    Ube flavor

    Tried the ube flavored puff with green tea filling and was great! The staff there was very kind and gave excellent customer service and the ambiance is fast casual since it's inside the Glendale Galleria Mall!

    The chocolate filling was AMAAAAZING
    Meagan I.

    I haven't had Beard Papa's in years! What a great these were. So many of my childhood memories include these. The CHOCOLATE WITH CHOCOLATE CREAM inside was the best! We even had them in the fridge for a while but I couldn't wait until they were room temp. They were super rich and wonderfully light. The classic CREAM PUFF was delicious of course. Perfectly plump and cream filled! These are great. The HONEY BUTTER were decent. I couldn't taste a lot of a different flavor. Of course the cream puff itself was still great. I'd probably choose the first two for the future.

    Strawberry Eclairs Shell and Vanilla Cream
    Tom F.

    I love this Japanese transplant and their cream puffs. I saw that they had a store inside the Tokyo Central market I was visiting and had to satisfy my craving. We shared the Honey Butter shell filled with Vanilla cream and the Strawberry Eclair shell with Vanilla cream. The Honey Butter shell is my new Fav!

    Great place. Make sure you try their drinks as well. Wish they had all flavors, at least the basic ones (e.g. chocolate) all the time.

The Blueberry Yogurt one really tasted like eating a cup of blueberry yogurt. The dollop of yogurt was nice and the blueberries were plump and fresh. The Hojicha one also had great flavor. I liked the nutiness of it. The cereal, dalgona, and red bean also added good flavors and textures. I like how the flavorings were embedded in layers throughout the bingsoo. The ice itself was okay though. It could've been softer and smoother, but still good nonetheless. The flavors and toppings really carried the bingsoos. I'd recommend both flavors. The cafe interior is super cute too. Love the design. I saw some people with laptops, so this could be a potential work/study spot? There's also lots of free parking underground.

The café itself is SUPER spacious with plenty of seating, making it a really comfortable spot to sit, relax, study, or catch up with friends. One thing we immediately noticed was how kind and courteous all of the workers were. The customer service felt very welcoming from the moment we walked in. I also loved that when your drinks are ready, they actually bring them out to you instead of calling you up to the counter -- such a nice touch that made the experience feel more personal. For drinks, I ordered the Oreo Matcha Brûlée Latte and my little sister got the Vietnamese coffee, and WOW... both were SO delicious. My matcha drink was rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced with the Oreo flavor, while the Vietnamese coffee was smooth, strong, and flavorful. You can tell they put care into their drinks here. Overall, such a great first experience and we'll definitely be back again soon!

We're already big fans of Aunty Maile's, so we were excited to support this business and drive from South OC here. We love that they expanded the menu to include plate lunches and all the familiar goodies from Aunty Maile's. We came at 3 pm, and it was crowded. There was a band playing - 4 uncles playing familiar, great music and harmonizing so beautifully. An aunty got up to do a beautiful hula dance. It's almost as if we're back on the islands at a family luau. For the first round, we ordered 2 large pizzas (one for to-go), and 4 plate lunches for the 6 of us. A couple new dishes for us here are spicy miso tofu and char siu chicken. For the tofu, I substituted rice and Mac salad for a garden salad. Oh, my goodness! Their salad dressing is amazing! It has a hint of sweetness and tartness and then bam!..the fresh garlic! Yum! Tofu was good, too! Hubby had the char siu chicken with all rice and no Mac salad. It came with a side of hot mustard. Truly onolicious! Only ask for next time is extra hot mustard. For dessert round, we got a dozen malasadas - 6 "simple kine" and 6 "filled," and a shave ice. Everything was great - food, service, and atmosphere. Oh, I forgot to mention that they hosted a pet adoption outside. So, on top of that, they're people with great hearts.
