Notable Picks
8.1
A Japanese-American bakery operating since the 1980s, built around airy whipped cream cakes and chiffon-based pastries made to order. The draw is the towering strawberry shortcake and cream puffs that reward birthday planners who call ahead. Expect a no-frills counter service format in a small Del Rey storefront where the craft speaks for itself.
Must-Try Dishes:
Strawberry Shortcake, Cream Puffs, Tres Leches

Worthy Picks
7.8
An old-school Del Rey donut shop where the oversized croissant breakfast sandwiches pull more weight than the donuts themselves, all at prices that barely register. It runs on early-morning regulars who know the counter routine and don't need a menu — the kind of neighborhood spot that survives on repeat visits and word of mouth, not signage.
Must-Try Dishes:
Croissant Breakfast Sandwich, Glazed Donuts, Croissants
What Makes it Special: Old-school neighborhood donut shop known for oversized croissant breakfast sandwiches at rock-bottom prices
A matcha-focused Japanese bakery counter tucked inside Mitsuwa Marketplace, turning out cream puffs and cornets at prices that barely register. The pastry lineup rewards repeat visits for anyone locked into the matcha-and-cream lane, though the sharply polarized review history—half fives, a third ones—means expectations should stay calibrated to a grab-and-go counter rather than a destination bakery.
Must-Try Dishes:
Matcha Cream Puff, Cream Cornet, Matcha Boba
What Makes it Special: Japanese bakery counter inside Mitsuwa Marketplace turning out matcha-forward pastries and cream-filled classics at convenience-store prices
