As a bakery, I find this spot alright with a limited amount of standard bakery choices compared to other options like Tous Les Jours, Paris Baguette, etc. In fact, a good amount of options are cookie choices, many of which aren't Asian themed at all. There's also cake choices as well to supplement this. With that said, the bakery items were fairly good quality, even if limited -- similar to what I'd expect from Chiu Quon. They also have a selection of savory dishes from dim sum to sandwiches, and Hong Kong favorites. I'd be interested in trying this on a future visit based on reviews from others. read more

I got the char siu fried egg sandwich. I enjoyed the pineapple bun and the combination of flavors. Parts of the char siu were a bit chewy/hard to chew but the sandwich overall tasted pretty good. The sandwich comes out on a tiny paper container though and it can get messy/deconstructed eating it. A decent value too - about $12, which was a pleasant surprise for me because I feel like a lot of these types of fusion bite places are absurdly pricey. The guy working at the time gave great customer service too. Gave me good recommendations and brought the food out to me in the food court when he saw me, even though he didn't have to. Located in Gangnam Market! read more

My husband and I went to Matt Bakes while at Gangnam Market in Chicago. There selection was pretty limited by the time we got there for lunch. We ended up getting a chocolate chip cookie. It was fine. There was plenty of seating in the food court. I was underwhelmed with Matt Bakes but I'd be willing to try some of there other items. read more

Stopped by this stall at Gangnam Market on a recent trip. I ordered a sandwich from a self-ordering kiosk--a charsiu, hashbrown, egg, and cheese sandwich on a pineapple bun. It was made fresh and piping hot! I waited until it was just cool enough to handle and wanted to get a bite before I left. It was delicious--flavorful, comforting, and unique, thanks to the pineapple bun! Not actually pineapple-flavored for those who may not know, but a sweeter bun. Wow, what an amazing sandwich. The only thing I wish I could've added is some drops of hot sauce! read more

I came two Saturdays in a row. The breakfast sandwich with hashbrown is my favorite. It has sausage and an egg inside. The slightly sweet pineapple bun goes perfect with the breakfast sandwich. I tried the egg sandwich with a hashbrown but it was just okay. The plaintain chips are also really good and can be added as a side for any sandwich. They have pastries and cookies for purchase as well. read more

Ordered the crab soup dumplings. It's 4 dumplings for around $6. There was no soup inside and the crab meat tasted a bit old. Overall, this was pretty horrible. I also am unsure why it took 25 minutes to serve these. read more

Great customer service here. Came in the do some shopping within the Asian shopping center. We opted to grab a cocktail and some late lunch. My husband ordered me the chicken Sando on the pineapple bun. I did not enjoy the bun. They were so nice and changed out the bread for my Sando, to the Japanese milk bread. I enjoyed my chicken Sando and throughly was impressed with my plantain chips. Check this out if you want some yummy grub. read more

Ordered 2 spamwhiches and 1 cha sui sandwhich for my kids. Service was very slow at ~20 min from when we ordered on the kiosk. They mixed up a few items from mine and my friend's orders - so we had to account for missing items even after waiting soo long. This added to the frustration of some very hungry kids. The 2 spamwhiches were made differently which confused my kids. My cha sui was okay but the bun was a bit much. I kinda wish it came with the toast instead. It's something I would get again. Each sandwhich came with a drink from the cooler that the counter person didn't tell us about. I had to deduce based on other orders. I'm not sure I would be back again as there are other options we can try in the food court read more

Service is friendly. Unfortunately I came to try the bbq pork plate but they were out. I ended up getting the fried pork sandwich with plantain chips and a currant juice box. The pork was good but kind of hard to eat as a sandwich and I didn't have a fork and knife. It's a big size on a Hawaiian role with pickles and sauce. The chips were delicious! We had a very good ube turtle pastry for dessert! There is a decent amount of seating for this food court. read more

Matt bakes can be found in the back of the Gangnam market food court. I ordered the three sauce rice noodles which consisted of sesame oil, sriracha, and hoisin. I felt the combo was a bit basic but the rice noodles themselves were very fresh. I ended up having to wait 30 mins for them, which was a bit longer than I expected so I would only place an order here if you're looking for multiple meal size items as opposed to a snack. read more

We got the egg sando and the karaage chicken sandwich. The egg sando is not the like Japanese egg sando - it was honestly pretty underwhelming. The best part about it was the Japanese milk bread. The chicken sandwich was good but nothing special that I would come back for. The pastries looked good but we didn't get a chance to try them. read more

First time trying Matt Bakes and the girl behind the counter suggested the truffle beef egg sandwich and the sweet shokupan special. All I can say is wow. You could really taste the truffle in the thinly sliced beef and the egg was so soft. Nothing was overcooked. Just perfect. And then the crunch from the milk bread made it feel so delicate and savory. I'm drooling just remember the first bite! The plantain chips were a perfect pairing as it was not too sweet and had the perfect crunch. I also enjoyed the sweet shokupan dessert. I'm sorry I forget the name but it was a special over the weekend. It had creamy white custard of some sort inside and it was so good! I can't wait to come back and try the other items on the menu! read more

Food court spot in Gangam market. Was feeling breakfast so I got the char siu and fried egg Sando. Love me a pineapple bun. It was flaky and sweet. Nice fried egg and layer of cheese. Hash brown was super crisp but a little greasy. Finally, the pork was overcooked which took a lot away from the sandwich. Super messy so highly recommend some napkins. Plantain chips on the side were meh. Definitely worth stopping by especially on Monday when it's 30% off. read more

Ambience is a food court in the Gangnam Market. Gangnam Market is awesome and worth the trip on its own, but if you come to the Gangnam market then come with an appetite because they food options are great! The service is as straight forward as you'd expect for a food market. I've had Matt Bakes twice now. The first time I went I got the Char Siu and Fried Egg Sandwich which had BBQ pork, hash brown, fried egg & cheese on a pineapple bun. The Char Siu itself was 8/10 and the sandwich as a whole was 9/10. I'd give it a 10/10 if it had a little more cheese and if the egg was cooked just a little more. This breakfast sandwich gives Kasama's breakfast sandwich a run for its money. The first time I went I forgot to take a pics, but the second time I went I was sure to get a picture. The second time I went I got the Truffle Beef and Eggs Sandwich which included Truffle beef & soft scrambled eggs on shokupan with coleslaw on the side. This sandwich is very savory and one of a kind. I highly recommend you give it a try. The coleslaw was 7/10 which makes it worth trying in my opinion. I didn't get any pictures of the baked goods, but I highly recommend trying their donuts and strawberry bun. I even bought some of the pineapple buns for homemade burgers. read more

I ordered the spam and egg sandwich and was surprised to have to option to pick plantain chips as a side. Even more surprised that they were so good. So was the sandwich but people may not know about the mariquitas. Sandwich was buttered and toasted on the outside. Great breakfast meal. read more

These "slices" are a quarter of an actual slice you would get anywhere else for the same price. Adding insult to injury, the taste is average at best. Cannot recommend this page. read more

Although the service is very good, I would have to say "NO" to their 554, shrimp dumplings & shumai. Their 554 has no taste and the meat is very fatty. The shumai is also very fatty and tough to eat. The shrimp shumai was very unappealing and had no taste. Maybe their sandwiches are better? read more

I ordered through uber eats and wish I ordered more. one thing - the crab soup dumplinga are relishes I added their sauce even added some chili oil it was really good.

I also had a slice of chocolate cake it was creamy and delicious. this store is underrated I'm waiting to get paid to order the ube bun read more

Presentation is good. The pork was chewy. It was cooked earlier and served at a later time when I ordered. The pork is store bought breakfast ham with a glaze on it. read more
