This place continues to offer great Portuguese egg tarts. $2 for one now. I went to pick some up yesterday. It was so fresh. The egg was just so smooth. Not too sweet and not oily. They offered other items as well. Their bao/buns were also very fresh.. I came when they just finished with the baos. I got some pork & veggies ones & bbq pork. It was $2 for one as well. Pretty good. Note. Didn't get to browse the shop. Ordered at the door. Customer service was great. Telephone service was great Parking avail
Parking: Super easy with plaza parking lot. Interior: They were taking orders at the door with menu posted outside. Wait Time: line was maybe 4-5ppl long so took a few minutes. Order was packed immediately so overall it's a quick pick up. Items Order: 9/10 Egg tarts $1.7 (2024)- Custard was bomb, not too sweet. It came fresh, hot, and shells were buttery. $20 min for card or they accept cash/zelle
Phu's Bakery is no-frills. They display their pastries at the window, and you may order at the door in front of a foldable table. We ordered two dozen egg tarts (that were kept warm) and two pork sung rolls, and paid cash. Both the egg tarts and pork sung rolls were delicious. The egg tarts were a hit at our gathering, and the pork sung rolls were a fantastic snack. Highly recommend! The parking lot is a bit busy with nearby food and beverage businesses, but doable!
My goodness! I am in love with Phu's Bakery Portuguese egg tarts! It is really one of the best egg tarts I have ever tried. The crust is flaky and buttery. The custard is creamy, silky, light, and has the perfect texture When I got them, they were warm and very fresh. The first bite was like an explosion of flavor in my mouth. They were irresistible! I also tried hot dog bun without cheese. It was savory and fresh. Their durian biscuit was sweet and creamy. They don't allow entry to the store. You have to order from outside. The service was fast. The bakery is located at Vikon Center. There were plenty of parking spots shared with other businesses. Definitely,I will be back.
Definitely a hidden gem I stumbled across a couple years ago. It's a small, walk-up style bakery, no dine-in, just a window where you place your order after checking out the display of baked goods. I've tried some of their breads, which were decent, but nothing too special. What really stands out here are the egg tarts. They're legit flaky, custardy , and honestly better than what I've had at a lot of dim sum spots. Whenever I'm heading to a party or visiting friends, I'll often grab a box to bring as a gift. Just a heads up they're pretty much cash only, so come prepared.
$20 min credit card charge & $2 Portuguese egg tart. If you don't have cash, you better buy 10 egg tarts lol! The price is quite unbeatable and the egg tart itself is so flaky and warm. You must eat them while they're freshly out of the oven / bakery because they don't sit well after a while. I bought half a dozen so I could save one for the morning and it felt apart but I still ate it, it wasn't as good as when I had it fresh/warm. The bakery shop is old style and it's not for sitting down but they do have a parking lot. Service was fast.
Phu's Bakery is a bakery in Rosemead known for their Portuguese Egg Tarts. They have other breads and baked goods as well; however, the egg tarts are what they're known for. When you come in, they don't let you inside and you order at the door. All of their baked goods are lined up in front of their window. Their popular tarts go for $2 each. I bought four and they were served hot. The pastries were flaky and the custard was pretty egg-forward. It's OK (3 stars) for me because I prefer the dessert with a little more sweetness. Being able to get hot and fresh Portuguese egg tarts is nice and, if you're looking for egg tarts, then you should check it out; however, their sweetness level isn't what I prefer.
I've been searching for a local bakery specializing in egg tarts and other Chinese pastries, and my wife, who is a very picky eater when it comes to sweets, was impressed with the pineapple biscuit, wife cake, and egg tarts. Phu's Bakery is located in the Vikon Center, which is in the same plaza as Tantawan Thai Kitchen. It is to-go only. They accept cash, credit, and debit cards with a $20 minimum, as well as Zelle. Their Portuguese-style egg tarts are perfectly sweet and creamy with a flaky crust, reminding me of the ones we had in Macau. The Wife Cake is also nice and flaky with a sweet center, and I enjoyed the pineapple biscuit as well, but my favorite was the egg tarts and wife cake. Prices aren't listed, but for 2 egg tarts, pineapple biscuit, wedding cake, and red bean cake, our total was $11.25. We will definitely be back for more of their delicious cakes and pastries.
One of my go to bakeries to buy egg tart! In the morning it's so warm and fresh. Since covid, they have not let customers into the store. Most breads are available on display. Some are in the back but written on the menu at the door. There is a curtain that you order and pick up from. Her cash register is still inside though haha so she runs back and forth. Bring cash as there is a $20 spend minimum for credit card use. We always get their egg tarts and it's become a famous shop for egg tarts in the SGV. So warm flaky custardy and slightly sweet. Custard is super eggy and there's nice color on the outside. Breads and buns are on par with the other Chinese bakeries and they do a great job with speciality traditional pastries and bakery products. The owner is running a business not a run club so she may seem a bit rude out front but it's just her RBF. Quick and efficient. There are also no public restroom!
we have been coming here for years for our custard egg tarts, even though it's a little bit pricey it's definitely worth it. The Portuguese egg tarts here are absolutely delicious. normally whenever we have a family gathering, I always buy these lovely desserts after lunch to bring with me. today, I went early in the morning when they first opened and the egg tarts were still fresh and warm. They used to sell out earlier in the day, but I guess business has been great over the years that now, they continually keep baking egg tarts until they close. The lady is very nice at the door. She asks what you want and reconfirms before she charges you. Service is pretty quick. Doesn't take longer than 5 to 10 minutes when you're picking up your baked goods. as long as you purchase over $20-$25 you can use a credit card otherwise make sure you bring cash.
Whenever I'm in the area, stopping by for their egg tarts is a must! They still operate "COVID-style," with orders taken outside the shop--which I don't mind at all since the service is quick and efficient. Just a heads-up: once items sell out for the day, they don't restock--so go early if you want the full selection! The egg tarts are incredibly well made and still taste amazing the next day after a quick reheat in the air fryer. Their pineapple buns are also a favorite, but they were sold out during my last visit. If you're ever nearby, definitely check out this gem of a bakery!

Their Egg Custard is the best in town and worth every penny as it's very dense. Not to mention it tastes amazing. Paired it with some tea for my afternoon tea. Satisfied. read more

I don't live nearby so I ordered a little bit of everything on the menu to go. I don't know the specific price for each one since the price wasn't printed on the menu. But normally it'd be a dollar or two for one piece at most Asian bakeries. They don't let the customers enter the store so it could be a little difficult to order at the store front. Try order ahead by sending messages to the owner on Yelp! They'll respond shortly. read more

Best egg tarts ever! I was debating on what I should bring to a small family gathering for dessert. A friend had recommended these egg tarts previously so I gave them a shot. They are amazing! The Portuguese egg tarts are not too sweet and the crust is extra flakey. Would go again! read more

I don't know how the bread or cake is at Phu's Bakery, as I only came here to indulge on the egg tarts and Portuguese tarts. My parents and the wonderful reviewers on Yelp made it known to me that egg tarts are extremely cheap here - like so cheap that you have to give it a try yourself. The bakery is not too big, located in a decently-sized shopping mall. There's a good amount of parking, so you don't have to worry about that. Sometimes the egg tarts do sell out for the day, so I would advise to come earlier if you're in the mood for these treats. Egg tarts are $0.95 each - a steal when lots of other bakeries are slowly raising the prices of egg tarts to almost $1.50. I don't think they have the flaky crust (not that I saw), but only the cookie crust - I still thought it was pretty good. The crust was not too sweet and the filling of the egg tart was pretty filling. The egg tart itself was light and creamy, almost as if it was whipped to be extra light. I liked that the filling was not too sweet either. I don't think it's the best egg tart I've had, but for the price - I definitely wouldn't mind coming back and getting a few more. As for the Portuguese egg tarts - I almost don't want to write about it in fear that the prices will start to rise once other people take notice. But I also want to give this shop the recognition it deserves! For $1.00 each, that is a BIG steal and win in my book. I've seen some places mark these up at around $3 each! I thought the top could have been a little more burnt and a tad bit sweeter, but the filling was just as light and delicious as it tasted in the egg tart itself. The crust of these tarts were flaky, which I appreciated - not the best flaky I have had, but they were good. tl;dr - highly recommend checking this bakery out if you're a fan of cheap but good pastries - especially the egg tarts and Portuguese tarts! Come earlier to get them as they come right out of the oven! read more

TGIF!! Sweets treat | Friday @ 10:30 am - Bakeries to go Portuguese egg tarts, wife cake, mochi, longevity peach bun (with taro paste filling) Food quality: Must try the Portuguese egg tart (Pasteis de Nata), the best of the best in Los Angeles. The crispy, flaky outer shell crust, holding with creamy custard, blistered on top from the high heat of an oven. Mostly sold out in the early afternoon. Wife cake and mochi are both beyond expectations. Service: it was an order-and-go service, they put a big vinyl curtain with a long table to block the door entrance, absolutely no line crossing! Customers were only allowed order from a distance, so it's hard to comment. Price: reasonable Selections: cakes, bread, special Asian pastries, etc. No brainer. Highly recommend! read more

Possibly the best egg tarts in Los Angeles. Sweet, eggy, and a perfect custardy consistency. The crust is fluffy and flaky. You don't get to go inside to pick but you order from outside the store behind a clear plastic curtain. A dozen were $22 read more

Good Chinese pastries on budget. This is an old store in an old plaza and looks nothing like JJ's or 85. However, the limited number of items sold here are as good, if not better, than everyone else. I'll take the egg tarts here over any other store's and it is extremely affordable ($1 each). I've also tried the almond cookies and wife cake and both are sizable and tasty. I've yet to try the breads here but can't wait to try them the next time. Overall, this is a true hidden gem and I'll be coming back many more times. Highly recommend! read more
Love, love, love Phu's bakery! This bakery is conveniently located near my job. It is my go to place for a light breakfast and even a quick lunch. The pastries here are cheap and they are delicious. My favorite items to buy are their raisin twists, sponge cake, coconut cream bun, and their cheese hot dog buns. Most of the their pastries cost around $1.00 or a little bit higher. My fave, raisin twists, are only $1.00. The raisin twists are one of favorite breakfast things to eat. They taste like a croissant but with raisins. Sooooo delicious! Now, I wish I had some right now! Besides pastries, they do sell loaves of bread as well as costume cakes. They even have egg tarts which are great as well. Phu's bakery has a little of everything here. So, if you stop in, you will not be disappointed to try out some of their baked goods! read more

- 4 portuguese egg tarts, 3 vegetable and pork buns, 1 raisin twist ($9.67) on the menu, the vegetable and pork bun is #1, the raisin twist is #6, and the portuguese egg tart is #53. the portuguese egg tarts were definitely the standout item for me and how i learned of this bakery in the first place!! the egg is full of eggy flavor and isn't overly sweet, and the tart base is nice and flaky. the vegetable and pork bun was also pretty authentic, and it's a great pickup if you need to eat on the road. the raisin twist was just okay for me; i would probably pass on that in favor of trying some other items on their menu next time! - overall i ordered in person. they don't allow you to walk inside the bakery, but they have a paper taped to a window with all the bread options. there was a cashier lady waiting at the door to take orders and i communicated with her through a plastic separator at the door. they take zelle and venmo payments in addition to cash and card, so plenty of payment options! read more
Every time I have people visiting from out of town who want to experience 626 food, I always call ahead and order egg tarts from Phu's. They're always fresh and SOOO delicious. Not too sweet and I LOVE the flaky crust paired with super soft custard inside. You can't beat the price for just over a $1 per tart too. Truly a gem when you don't have to forego taste/quality for price. Staff is friendly and Covid safe with gloves and a table blocking the doorway so you cannot go inside but you can order and they will open the plastic flap and give you your goods. You drop the cash in a box on the table instead of giving it to them directly. read more
