This should be what people means when they say something is “inflation-resistant”. I can’t fathom how they are able to provide baked goods at such a high quality but low price apart from the fact that maybe they don’t have to pay rent?? Definitely recommend giving this spot a try if you’re in the area.
I bought a turon and a pandan hopia, totaling to $2. Both were warm (not partially but warm throughout which suggest they were either made very soon before or were kept in a heated environment) and tasted super fresh. I preferred the turon; the outside was crispy and caramelized, and the inside tasted like a plantain but also had jackfruit umami. The layers were clearly defined and the texture was great. Comparatively the pandan hopia was not as sweet, but the filling was soft and gooey. It’s not really a dough-y or bread-y texture but in between bread and pastry, so it was quite unique.
Wow this place was so good. I got hopie (pandan flavor + ube flavor), a small flaky bun. I also got turon which is similar to Latin friend plantain deserts with syrup. Both were so good. The hopie were both super flakey and had very flavorful fillings, they felt delicately prepared. The turon was very flavorful and tasted fresh. The staff was extremely friendly, I had a great visit to United bread and pastry and will be an ambassador to their excellence at each opportunity that presents itself
This Filipino bakery is hands down the best in town! Every item they serve is pure perfection, from their soft and fluffy pandesal to their beautifully crafted ensaymada. But what really steals the show is their *turon* – crispy on the outside, sweet and perfectly caramelized on the inside. It’s no wonder it’s their most famous item!
Not only is the food top-notch, but the service has recently taken a huge step up. There’s a new team member, a kind, humble, and hardworking man who goes above and beyond to make every customer feel welcome. His warm smile and helpful attitude really elevate the entire experience, making you feel like family the moment you step through the door.
This bakery truly has it all – amazing food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you're grabbing a quick snack or treating yourself to a full spread of Filipino delights, this place never disappoints. If you haven’t tried their famous *turon* yet, do yourself a favor and stop by – you’ll be hooked from the first bite!
Highly recommended – a gem for anyone craving authentic Filipino flavors!

The place was ok. Finding a parking space was a challenge, but mainly, steer clear of their hopia. I was hoping for an authentic and good hopia since it was rated 4.6 stars here and ordered 2 boxes worth $50+ hoping to send 1 box to relatives out of state. But when I got home and started to taste some of the hopia, I couldn't even get past 1 bite. It was stale, flaky, and disgusting. Like it's been sitting there for more than a week. You can tell it was an old batch. The filling was subpar. The durian hopia was disappointing and not a hint of durian. I feel so embarrassed that I sent a box of these disgusting hopia to my relatives. I should've just drove the extra 10 miles and got some from Hopia like it in Winnetka. They do not disappoint. Please do better and improve your food quality because this is an embarrassing representation to us Filipinos.

Stellar store of Filipino sweets and savories. Plus the day I went the Deus-clad shopkeeper was especially generous with his hospitality and let me try the plantain egg roll. Outta this world! ?

Found this awesome family owned bakery on my way to the farmer's market. The Mom owner and son? handling the counter were super friendly, doling out samples to everyone, explaining what everything was...the pastries were flaky and not super sweet and the chicken empanadas were delicious. Can't wait to try everything else on the menu, except maybe not balut. Haha.5 stars!!

My go to for delicious birthday cakes, fantastic Filipino treats, and run by the absolute nicest people who give the most five star service ever. Cannot recommend enough. One of the last good things left on that entire strip of sunset.

Likely the oldest Filipino Bakery in all of Los Angeles and a family tradition. Not only do they serve the BEST Turon [plantain and jackfruit lumpia/eggroll slathered in a light caramel sauce], but, their Empanadas are to die for. Latin empanadas are great, but, once you try Filipino Empanadas you will never go back! Call ahead and order both in advance for fresh, made to order delicacies warm in the box! My uncle has been a customer for years and years and my kids grew up looking forward to these treats at every family celebration. Tell them Daddy Jun sent you!
Vegetarian options: Turon is vegan and vegetarian.

Very homey filipino bakery selling all kinds of bread and pastries. They have empanadas, turon (banana egg roll with jackfruit), traditional rice cakes, birthday cakes, party platters, and pies (cassava/egg). They also have a small grocery section inside.The ladies here are very kind!Parking is very limited. Cash or card.
