Đông Hưng Viên Bakery

I drive all the way from Fullerton just to come to this bakery that’s how good it is! I’m vegan, and their vegan chicken and lemongrass sandwich is absolutely delicious. Highly recommend it! The lady who helped us was super sweet and gave us the best service. She even offered us samples and cut into some of their best sellers right away so we could try them fresh. also tried the taro and red bean paste cakes, and they were amazing soft, flavorful, and not too sweet.
Everything here tastes so fresh and made with love. Totally worth the drive every time! 💚

Their coconut croissant 🥐 was not bad, but I would skip the moon cakes, it's overpriced and underwhelming in taste. The fillings was dry and hard, which was a total disappointment, cause we initially came here for the moon cakes. Totally not worth $10 to $11 a pop.

Great place to go for sandwiches and breads. They have amazing vegetarian options. I recommend the lemongrass steak banh mi. They have a variety of banh mi, moon cakes, and breads like coconut raisin bread.

This place is amazing! I’m vegan and it’s been showing up in my Instagram feed. Once staff found out we were newcomers, they immediately cut into a few of their best sellers for us to sample: vegan empanada and vegan beef puff pastry. When the fried chicken (made from mushroom) was ready, they offered a sample of that. Everything was delicious! The prices are beyond reasonable for a good bakery, let alone hard to find vegan items. I ended up buying an assortment of pastries and waiting 10 minutes for fresh bread to get a super tasty “lemongrass steak” sandwich. This is a very welcoming, clean, exciting place for vegans. Love it!

Many sandwich, baked goods, & drink options for vegans! And everything is very clearly labeled. We love coming here on a whim, especially for their baked goods.

Everything is vegetarian and delicious!

I’ve been coming here quite often and usually enjoy the food, but today I came across a fly in my bánh mì. I only noticed it when I was about to take my next bite and saw it stuck inside. I’m also concerned because I’m not sure if I may have swallowed another one while eating.
I just wanted to bring this to your attention.

The bahn mis here are so worth the visit. They’re huge and very tasty! There are a bunch of options and the bread is always perfectly crispy. They also have some delicious baked goods like the vegan beef puff pastry. Overall, this shop is absolutely worth visiting!

This shop is awesome! There are soooooo many delicious vegan options both in sandwiches and in pastries 🥰 my current favorite is the vegan lemon grass beef sandwich:) I also love all of the vegan pastries 🙌🏾

The staff is also very kind :)

The must-go place for vegan baked goods. They have non-vegan items too but it's all clearly marked. My wife and I live in L.A. and come by the bakery everytime we come to Orange County to see family. We are always glad we came and always eager to return.

I bought the taro soft cakes, sesame bread, another soft sweet bread, a pork pate sandwhich, and the green pandan mungbean pre poured kept in the fridges on the back wall of the store. The taro soft cakes were good, the sandwhich was fine and I thought the french bread in the sandwhich was pretty good, and the other two breads I bought I didn't get to sample since I dropped them off at work. However I am sorry but I believe the drink I bought went bad. It tasted sour and fizzy like spoilt milk and unfortunately there was no date sticker on it so perhaps it went bad as I have had the pandan mungbean drink before at other shops and it is a sweet drink. Maybe I am wrong, but either way the service was 50/50 on the one hand the less senior woman in status helping me was very sweet and helpful answering my questions and on the other hand the cashier seemed easily stressed with just three customers in the store and it seemed like she was scolding the woman helping me because she was taking too long??? At least the cashier explained that there was an egg in the soft cakes I was about to buy and they had ones with no egg. So I thought that was nice that she made me aware before I bought the cakes. I have visited other Vietnamese bakeries and prefer the ones down the street.

Amazing vegan options, the owner was super friendly and kept giving free samples. They serve meat too, if that's your thing, but the vegan options aren't a second priority. The vegan menu and pastries rival their nonveg counterparts in breadth.

My family and I go to the bakery regularly for their bahn mi sandwiches and vegan treats! The fried chicken bahn mi is SO good! Other favs are the vegan coconut croissant, vegan ham and cheese, and my son loves the guava turnover. Gotta try them all!

We tried their almond cookies, raisin cookies, coconut fried rice, and ube rice, and wow, everything was delicious.
