Orders are placed through a tablet, making the process quick and easy. My go-to is the Crème Brûlée Matcha Swirl, and it never disappoints! The matcha is high quality and reminds me of the matcha I had in Kyoto. The crème brûlée adds the perfect amount of creaminess and sweetness, complementing the rich matcha flavor without overpowering it. The combination of both makes this drink absolutely delicious! I've also tried the Matcha Yuzu, which is perfect for summer! It's refreshing, flavorful, and has a nice citrusy twist. Overall, if you're looking for delicious, high-quality matcha, definitely check this place out!

*** Only open on Friday (12 PM - 4 PM), Saturday (12 PM - 6 PM), and Sunday (12 PM - 4 PM) ***…read more CA Bakehouse is a Hong Kong / Teochew / Vietnamese inspired bakery with a new twist in Little Saigon in San Jose. The bakery started as Century Bakery in Grand Century Mall specializing in Green Waffles. The bakery later rebranded as CA Bakehouse and moved to this location in 2019. This bakery is best known as the home of the original Green Waffle. [Parking]: It was difficult to find available spots at this super busy plaza on Sunday at 12:30 PM, but there's a parking structure at the back of the plaza. [Ordering]: This is a takeout spot with no indoor or outdoor tables available. [Menu]: Some of Yelp's top highlighted items are Portuguese Egg Tart, Mochi Cake (Original / Banana Walnut / Guava), and Pandan Green Waffle. There was a controversy in 2022 that Third Culture Bakery sent a cease-and-desist letter to CA Bakehouse to stop using the trademark "mochi muffin," and CA Bakehouse was forced to change the name to "mochi cake." ( https://sf.eater.com/2022/6/6/23156602/third-culture-bakery-mochi-muffin-trademark-social-media ) *** Portuguese Egg Tart ($3.25): It had a strong brown sugar aftertaste. A bit sweet but I liked it. They didn't go cheap on the filling as it tasted very thick. Mochi Cake (Guava - $3.50): Chewy cake with guava filling - I still liked the egg tart better. Pandan Green Waffle ($3): Not too sweet with a chewy texture - it was the best one out of the three and definitely a must-get. *** A solid 4.5-star for the baked goods and bump up to a 5-star for the affordable prices.

CA Bakehouse is located in the Vietnam Town complex. Parking can be a problem if you want to park…read moreclose to the bakehouse but if you're not picky then you can park by the back. CA Bakehouse does not open till 12 noon so that's my main complaint. That's why it took us a long time to ever try it and was only here twice. They are pretty popular so there can be a line. Ordering is done by the door, no one is allowed to go inside and I don't really understand why. There's no way for us to really see and explore what else we want to order. We have ordered the following on both occasions: - Choux (my fave and our usual) - kaya and ube flavors - Pandan-Coconut Milk bread - Banh Bo (honeycomb cake) - Guava filled Mochi cake - Durian, Kaya & Portuguese Egg Tarts - Kaya Croissants All in all, it is good. Hoping they will open earlier like 10am. October 2026

I think I'd still prefer their mango pomelo sago more as the dragonfruit is a bit too sweet for my liking but in general they're mango is always on point.

I asked which options were vegan-friendly, and the person at the register said they have two options: Mango Sago and HK Lemon Tea. I opted for the Mango Sago Bowl. The bowls and spoon are super cute! I loved the fresh mango (I wish there was more on top) and the icy mango base. The sago pearls were tiny and added some texture. I skipped the tea because I planned to get a drink next door, but I would try it next time.

Sara the owner is always super friendly, and so creative. I personally loved the mango sticky rice snow that was sadly only seasonal - can't wait for mango season to come back around again! My go-to order is usually the three mini red bean taiyaki. It's super fresh and crispy when it comes out - my only comment would be that Snowtime trims the edges so that the taiyaki look amazing, but I honestly love eating the crunchy bits, so I don't mind when they're not trimmed, either. There's tons of seating inside, but Snowtime's a very popular spot, especially after kids' weekend sports events are over, so plan accordingly. It can be a bit noisy when it's busy, but chill when it's not.

Went to Dzui after the pho for a drink in hot day and was interested in moon cake they posted in…read morethe front. Apparently the moon cake was gone. I couldn't get any. It will take two more weeks for a new batch to arrive. Yes two weeks. I'm so sad. Went ahead and bought a matcha latte. First sip was just the milk on the bottom. It was so good and sweet touch on my sugar sense. It was so good. Matcha is strong. Once it mixed, the matcha taste is dominating the whole drink. Love every sip of it though. The other drink was a melon drink. It came with tiny pearls and grass jelly. The grass jelly was tough. Didn't like it but everything else was great. Will I go back? Yes I would go back and hopefully they would have both a good drink and moon cake for me. Thank you for being in community.

My absolute favorite matcha spot in San Jose!! I'm a very…read moretough critic on matcha spots nowadays and don't really frequently come back to many- but Aroma always hits the spot for me!!! I've come back multiple times and all their matcha drinks have been so deliciously perfect for my taste buds! i've also tried their che and its approved by my viet mom & aunties and that's also saying a lot haha! My favorite matchas are the jasmine matcha and banana cream matcha!! I tried their vanilla matcha and pandan matcha as well and those are great options as well. Not many matcha spots have jasmine matcha so I was pleasantly surprised when I saw they sold it- I loveee jasmine tea and it's so fragrant and pairs well with the matcha-- so unique and my go-to matcha drink most days I come here! When i'm craving a sweeter matcha, I go for their banana matcha. The banana pudding/cream and biscoff crumble is so yummy and you still taste a lot of the matcha flavor too! Most of the time, cream tops overpower the matcha but this place nails the balance down! Love love love their matcha!! Service can be a bit slow because they use one iPad kiosk for orders and the workers stay in the back behind the curtains to make drinks. Every matcha is hand-whisked per order so they have signs around the store letting us know it might be a wait if busy! I do like the music they play whenever I wait for my drinks. Otherwise I just walk around the plaza until my drink is ready! :)
