Los Almendros Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Glendale, California

Outstanding tacos. They take covid safety seriously too. Have made multiple trips over the last couple of months.

I just went here today for the first time after hearing about them since I had an appointment in Burbank. I didn't want to deal with the crowds at Portos. I got a Cubano and some sweet breads and let me tell you it was so freaking good. Also, I got the dulce de Leche Besitos. And they were twice as large as the ones at Portos and dare I say, even better. They are supposed to close at 7 according to Yelp but apparently they close at noon at least today, so luckily, I got there 10 minutes before. The prices are very affordable as well. You will not be disappointed. We are going back soon! read more

This place is amazing. They open really early, which is great since my co-workers and I start at 4-5am. I've had the chorizo with crossiant and it was one of the best meals I've had I'm a long time. On top of that, the service is amazing. read more

I'm telling you - look no further. If you are a studio worker, chillin' in my city of Glendale, lookin' for lunch - go here and get the CHICKEN Burrito and have a phat slice of flan for dessert. If you are a local, like me, get your tamales on this weekend and buy enough for the fam. If you are a traveler ridin' along through north Los Angeles and you need some bomb Mexican food - and you can't get to the East Side at this moment - stop at Los Almendros and get your grub on. If you are a VEGAN... well, get a burrito with beans, onions, lettuce, tomato, more onions, cilantro, and salsa, and you'll be golden. If you are just trolling yelp and you love mexican food, and you live in Glendale, and you don't have a zillion bucks, because you are not rolling in cash like those high ballers, then just do yourself a favor, get a burrito, or a taco from here, and the yummy crispy chocolate chip cookies, and I'm sure you will be satisfied with your life today. read more

I always go in for their pan dulce on the weekends. It's been my go to for a while now. I haven't found a bakery with the same taste besides Porto's. I believe the owner of this place use to work there. He converted this into a mini Porto's. The place is small but since it's always an in and out experience it's okay with me. It's clean and organized. Nothing to complain about plus everyone is helpful and accommodating. If they've ran out of my favorite breads, the will make a fresh batch and it's ready as early as 20 mins. Definitely recommend this place for your bread, cakes, breakfast, and even sandwiches. read more

They have the best cheese rolls. Too bad that they close early. I'm going back for more of that. The whole fam loved their cheese rolls.

Sorry Porto's you got replaced by Los Almendros Bakery for the delicious following items: 1) Potato Balls! 2) Cuban sandwiches! 3) Media Noches sandwiches! Basically a Cuban sandwich in a different bread. 4) Pastrami Sandwiches! The prices are very reasonable with excellent service. Next time we are trying their burritos and quesadillas. Best, Teresa and Rafael read more

Delicious bread, pastries, tamales. They have a beautiful attitude centered on making the customer feel appreciated. Go there every weekend for their tamales and bread to bring home. I highly recommend this place... read more

I literally live for their flan. SO AMAZING! I love their conchas and everything is fresh and sanitary. I would definitely give 5 stars, but lately I've been disappointed in their hours. They say they are open but sometimes they are completely closed. I went the 7/5/19 not even the 4th of July and their hours were open since it was around 11 and the would close at 2 but I got there and there was no one and it was lights out with chairs up so I knew they were closed and not just for lunch. I was very bummed and looking forward to their flan like no other :'( I called no answer. I just hope one day I can eat there soon :( read more

Stopped by after 2 soccer games! Was Hungry. OMG the chicken sandwich was Huge, thinking I couldn't finish it but it I did! It was Delicious! Best Chicken Sandwich in town! Sorry Porto's, this place got you beat! read more

This is my third time coming here and as always amazing customer service. This place is 100% family owned and operated so they definitely put their heart into everything they make. Always leave with a full and happy tummy. One of the girls gave my daughter a free pastry and water bottle which has never happened at any other bakery I've been to before. Thank you guys so much for making us feel right at home. read more

I have driven past this bakery a thousand times and just stopped there by chance. What a find! An amazing hole in the wall bakery where everything is fresh and delicious! The potato balls and cheese rolls here are far better than Porto's! The tamales, only available on weekends, are also excellent. The employee that helped was very nice and efficient. I will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend! read more

Los Almendros Bakery - Delicious and huge potato balls - Bakeries Near Me - Glendale, California

This is a great spot, I always get my bolillos hot and fresh. I love the fact that they have Pan Integral (sugarless sweet bread). I try their tamales this weekend and they were really good, I specially love the fact that they are moist. I usually go to Lupitas for my tamales craving so is nice to have a closer place. They try to make the similar bread to another famous bakery in Glendale, not the same bread but at least I avoid the long line and the whole hour I waste going over there. read more

AMAZING! I've been seeing the new signage from my office nearby promoting their new sandwich menu. I wish I had gone earlier. The bread is as fresh as it gets and the meat in the sandwich was unforgettable. I was very impressed how fast I got my order and how delicious it was. read more

Los Almendros Bakery - This sandwich was amazing. - Bakeries Near Me - Glendale, California

Today I had a meatball sandwich craving. On my way to try a new place, I remembered that there was a sandwich shop I have been wanted to try, but keep forgetting to check them out. I see the sign nearly everyday taking my son to school or karate. I walked in and was surprised to see how cozy the bakery was. I love their simple sandwich menu. I ordered two media noche sandwiches, potatoes balls and a few pastries. I was ready to compare the media noche and potatoes balls to the other famous Cuban place in Burbank. However there was no match! The meat in the potatoes balls had such flavor no ketchup was needed. They were plump and perfectly made in texture. The media noche was delicious. Meat was tender and the sandwich was made with pride. I'm a Jersey native and having food from here, tasted as if I had gone to a Cuban family friends house. I will definitely be back for my Cuban sandwich fixes. I'm giving them 4 stars for food quality and customer service. It would have been nice to see a pastry menu but can appreciate a family owned and operated establishment. read more

What a gem! This bakery is at the top of my list. Where do I start? The staff is incredible and generous. I don't think I've ever met friendlier business owners. They put in so much time and effort into their cakes. The level of precision that goes into making them Just Right and perfect for the client is remarkable. It has been a long time since I have had this (I'm a vegetarian) but I remember their chicken and carne asada tacos being so. damn. good. The items I love the most now has to be the cheese danish. No I change my mind it's the conchas, dipped in hot chocolate. No no it's the chocolate croissant! Ugh I can't decide. Everything is so damn good at Los Almendros. It helps that everything is so reasonably priced too. This bakery is a must try. read more

I loved everything I tried here! The potato balls, guava rolls, and medianoche sandwich! They have a similar menu to Porto's and it did not disappoint :) I am coming back here for sure! read more

Amazing! Hidden gem in the Glendale/Burbank area. I honestly thought this place was closed. I walked in and received great service. I enjoyed their Cuban Sandwich and Potato Ball Sandwich. Will definitely stop by again. read more

I wish I could give them a 5 star! Between my sister and I, we ordered 6 Cuban Sandwiches and 4 media noche All the Cubanos were wonderful! But the media noche were burned! We had also purchased some of the Cuban bread and we had to replace all the bread. The Cuban crackers were wonderful. I hope them good luck, but before they sell their sandwiches, they need to make sure they don't burn the bread. read more

This place has delicious pastries! Everything I've tried so far has tasted fresh, and full of flavor! I can't wait to pay another visit! Love it! read more

Like this place, come here often for their burritos and sandwiches. the only bad thing is they're not consistent with their hours. We've come to find this place closed by noon MANY times (different days of the week). probably more than 10 times. Luckily we live nearby so it's not too much of a wasted trip. Don't believe Yelp hours for this business, don't believe the hours posted on their door either. Call ahead! read more

I like going to this place in the morning there is usually not a long line. Staff is very friendly and they have now expanded their restaurant. I have yet to try something from their food menu. Their prices are amazing and I always return for more. read more

This place has the best almond cookies!!! Every pastry is fresh and just enough sugar...

This place is truly a hidden gem! The food is great the prices are decent and their customer service is great! I have not had one thing that I did not like from here. Their pastries and food are really GREAT! read more

Placed an order to pick up baptism cake at 7am and was there early. I waited until 7am and after 20 more minutes of them stalling the daughter asks if they can drop off the cake later because the cake won't be done until 1 hour later. I was furious due to me driving so far and paying for the cake upfront weeks before. The daughter stated the cake messed up and they needed to redo the words... When explaining to them how upset I was and how this wasted my time and gas the mother says in her poor English , " We never told you to come at 7." Me: "Are you serious?!" I responded with such anger due to my event starting at 9am and no one would of been able to pick up the cake being that it is so far! Why do they even ask what time do I need the cake then? I walked out and they called back 40 minutes later stating they will drop off the cake. I was speechless when I saw the cake. First off the name was misspelled.I thought to myself why did they even bother to try fixing it? It looked so sloppy as if they didn't even try to fix it. The daughter even stated they use fonts online and print it on rice paper? Check out the picture I will post of the cake. If your thinking of purchasing from them I would think twice and just wait in line at portos. This family owned business is a joke. read more

I ordered a Trolls-themed cake for my daughter's birthday and was advised that the figures/cake toppers would be pretty expensive. I decided to get my own but expected the cake to somewhat look like a troll cake based on the colors. When I picked it up, even my daughter was disappointed. She said "this is not a Troll cake!" They said that the colors I requested did not taste good and said it was too late to do anything about it. They should have told me that when I ordered it not when it was too late. I was visibly upset and they gave me some free bread to make up for the messed up cake. I doubt I will order cake from there again. read more

What a great little place. It's no frills, you can tell it's family run and they have limited staff. So I wouldn't go with a time crunch. The sandwiches are excellent. They have real CUBAN bread!! You read that correctly, REAL CUBAN BREAD! The cuban and pork sandwich was amazing. We got some croissants and pastries for breakfast during the week and they are still fresh and delicious. None of the pastries are too sweet. When we went, they must've just opened, because I was hoping for more selection of pastries like the yummy tiramisu that was pictured. I didn't take the coke that comes with the sammie and they threw in a pumpkin pie instead - WIN! I will def be back and I will be putting in a big order of cuban sammies when folks come to visit. Go support the local businesses! read more

My first time at this location. I was randomly looking for a last minute rosca de reyes. I received the best customer service. The bread was so soft and fresh unlike the mass produce stores that make too many and goes stale. I also tried the flan which was one of the best I have had in a long time. My girls had the sugar cookies and were very pleased. I will come back to try other items. This place looks like its a mom-pop shop and would love to support small businesses. read more

Always friendly, clean, and offers a lot of sweet bread variety! The best pumpkin pies for thanksgiving! The best! I look forward to the roscas! read more

Great food, small selection so they can do it right. everybody is really nice and super helpful. it's like a tiny porto's

Holy guacamole!! What an amazing place. It's unassuming from the outside but the food is amazing and it's fresh! Very friendly service as well. Feels very much like someone's home. read more

yes yes yes! Came here after graveyard shift at 6:45 am,and they where open. You can smell the sugar as soon as u walk in. The conchas are amazing, they have super fine flower and the sugar to make the toppings also seemed super fine. I bought croissants, also not too layered on the crust, they tasted sooo good. the girl at the counter was super nice and I appreciate a family run business. Even open on memorial day, thank you! Will definitely try sandwiches next time. read more

This bakery is absolutely my favorite one in my area. They always have great tasting quality food! My personal favorite is there pastrami sandwiches. There other sandwiches are always amazing and made fresh. My favorite part about the bakery is there seasonal pumpkin pie which is to die for!!! They run out fast so be sure to place and order if your looking for some for the holidays you won't be disappointed. And the bread is so amazing it's always nice soft and warm. No don't get me started on the cakes. The coffee cakes they have year round are perfect and very light. If you ever need a cake for a special occasion or birthday give them a call and the details and they'll have it ready for you. They never dissapiont me, I always call them to make cakes for my grandma and they come out beautiful. Not only is the food amazing but the service is even better they always make me feel at home and make sure that I am highly satisfied with my order. The bakery itself give you a humble feel but lively due to the beautiful red and white walls and lovely decorations, I always walk out if there with a small on my face and I'm sure you will too!! read more

Los Almendros Bakery - They're whip is so light and delicious. I highly recommend - Bakeries Near Me - Glendale, California

I have to admit I am not a guava lover. I like sweet cheese Danishes, chocolate croissants, ect. I was having a bad morning and I only had a little bit of oatmeal for breakfast and had to rush for work. I'm 9 months pregnant so by the time I get to work I'm starved. My lovely elderly co worker offered me a piece of some sort of bread with guava. I'm not a person to reject food and be picky when hungry. I took a bite and thought hm, pretty good, I took a bite of the flaky bread and guava and thought oh dear lord baby Jesus this Is REALLY good! It's not like OMG I'm gonna die fall off my chair but I've been to a lot of bakeries and I don't go back. But I already know this is going to be my regular bakery from now on! Finally I don't have to travel to highland park for a good piece of pan dulce! I'm so excited to see what else this place has. read more
