Jiro Cafe & Bakery

This place is pretty small but cute. There are not that many seats inside, and most people seem to be taking food to go. I got the tonkatsu quesadilla for $12 and it was essentially cabbage, corn, and tonkatsu, and cheese inside a tortilla(?) shell. It was an interesting item, but tasted pretty good.

Jiro cafe is an amazing hidden gem of a Japanese cafe nestled in the green hills of Belmont. The pastries and food here are top notch and authentic and this place is actually Japanese owned. Their yakisoba sandwiches to their katsu as well as the melon soda and delicious hojicha lattes transported me to the charming cafes in Ginza, Tokyo. So good!

I love this place. Great little Japanese bakery with all the classics you’d expect. I get lunch here sometimes too, which is also really good. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a Japanese cafe and bakery, one of the best I’ve found around the area.

I absolutely love Jiro Cafe and especially their musubi’s and cheesecakes. What a great small cafe/bakery in a beautiful location! It’s owned by a wonderful lady who is clearly very passionate about her work and taking care of guests, hopefully you get the chance to meet her during your visit!

What a fantastic café! The food is prepared fresh and taste great. Bakery items are authentic Japanese and some of the hot food is Japanese with a little bit of a California twist like a tonkatsu burrito and quesadilla. We tried one of everything from the tonkatsu menu and they were all fantastic. You do have to wait a little bit for your food, but this is understandable since everything is made to order. What a great little restaurant and we will be back to taste some more items

High quality bakery in Japanese style. We got melon pan and the sausage bun. The melon pan got stolen by my brother so I didn't get a chance to try lol. However, the sausage bun is good. The bread is light and fluffy, like Japanese bread supposed to be, and the sausage is high quality. Would love to try sando and drinks there next time.

This is the best Japanese bakery in the Bay Area. Bread and ingredients are perfect. It's hard to find matcha or chocolate drinks with such flavor. Try it once.

Love this place. Feel like I’m in Japan. Great quality, homemade, not too sweet like American deserts. Can’t get any better.

The Japanese style bread and crab sando are great!

Not a lot of japanese bakery selection here in the Bay Area, but this spot is a must-try.

Decided to try a large variety of the menu, and everything was a hit. Would def recommend getting the chocolate and matcha lattes; they are so rich and authentic which is rare to find even amongst drink specialized stores. Also would recommend the cream cornets and the tonkatsu sandwich; portion is huge!

Staff were all very friendly and professional; I you like your bread not too sweet, would def recommend.
