Kien Giang Bakery

Dependable amazing cakes! Note: chocolate cake is a special order and you have to order in advance!

Thank you so much for making this beautiful gender reveal cake in such short notice.
I had trouble finding a bakery that would do the blue frosting in the middle, even well known bakeries wouldn’t do it because «the integrity of their cakes could be ruined do to the food coloring» such bulls****.
It was beyond what I expected. I took a picture I found on pinterest and you guys nailed it. Very happy and it was very delicious.

Durian cake was a hit! Very friendly and fast service with reasonable prices. Recommended.

I love this place, and the cakes especially, but one specific /​woman that works there is super rude, will not be coming back to this location and never recommending this place. Buy at your own risk.

We have been going to this bakery for more than 10 years! We have ordered all of our cakes for every single occasion from here, including our wedding. Their cakes are incredible, and they always go out of their way to make sure the customer gets what they want. If you like Banh Mi Vietnamese sandwiches, I also recommend picking some up, when you go in. Their Banh Mi was voted as one of LA’s best.

Love this place! This is the only place I go to order bday cakes! Been going here for years now. I also love there sandwiches it’s great. $ 7 for sandwich Drink and dessert ! Can’t beat that anywhere else. Give this place a try when ur in the area.

Moon festival falls on September 27 which happened to be yesterday this year. If you’re looking for some amazingly well crafted moon cakes that taste equally as good then this is the bakery for you. Far too often I’ve had great tasting moon cakes but the design was subpar. Other times, the designs are flawless only to be left disappointed by the terrible tasting moon cakes. At Kien Giang, the moon cake both looks and taste out of this world.
You can tell they really care about the product they put out. As typical with most Viet places they usually prefer cash but they do take card here too, much to my surprise, but it has to be $ 5 minimum. Aside from moon cakes they also sell cakes, banh mi, and other Viet treats.
Service is super friendly here. Its a rarity for Viet places to be so friendly, not that there aren’t, but too often everyones grumpy. This place’s service is spectacular. They are so happy to see their customers. Prices are very reasonable. If only it wasn’t so far away I’d come here to take care of all my obligated duties of buying moon cakes for my elders.
PS one of the best Viet bakeries around

Best banh mi I’ve had in a really long time. The bread was crunchy, the veggies were pickled to perfection, there was plenty of meat & pâté. Simply delicious! There was even cucumber in the sami! At $ 5 a pop this place is expensive in comparison to other places in the SGV, but it’s worth every penny! We took our samis to Echo Park and had an impromptu picnic. What a great way to start the day!

My family comes here for their moon cakes. We’re pretty traditional and we’re picky when it comes to traditional Chinese desserts. We’ve been coming to this bakery for years and we are never disappointed. They are English-​speaker friendly, so don’t be shy!

They have the best bahn mi sandwiches! Forget Lee’s sandwiches, come here! Super fresh, crusty bread with the soft steamy inside. And the toppings! Just yum.

As soon as we started thinking about wedding cakes, I thought of Kien Giang Bakery. I was once lucky enough to live down the street from them so I knew they made light and delicious cake. They were very reasonably priced, even for the very large 3 tier cake we wanted. (We did taste a few other cake options but KG was the best by far) We selected their strawberry layered option and I provided a photo of a design I saw on the internet. The ending result was wonderful!!! It looked incredible but most importantly it tasted incredible. Guests kept coming up to us and telling us how amazing the cake tasted. It was really the best wedding cake I’ve ever had. KG will definitely be our first choice for all cake needs in the future and I’m so happy they were a part of our big day.

Oh this place here excellent customer service, omg and their baking it’s so so so good every celebrations I have I go to that specific place and get my goodies. I definitely recommend this place

This place is great! Ordered the vegetarian pork sandwich – couldn’t believe it’s tofu! The staff were friendly and chatted with me while I waited and for $ 5 for a quality and delicious sandwich, you can’t ask for anything more.
They take cash and card (with a $ 5 minimum).

Growing up in Orange County next to a large Vietnamese community made me become super picky with Banh Mi sandwich’s that isn’t $ 12 and isn’t packed with random stuff in it. I mean I love different concoctions of foods, but I was really missing a good banh mi without all the thrills and frills. This place definitely succeeded in just producing the perfect basic banh mi!

I’ve been looking for veggie bahn mi and I ran into this place by accident, best veggie bahm mi ever. I got the combo with a strawberry cake and drink for only $ 7, the cake reminded me of the kind my mom used to buy me for my birthday as a kid.

Got a couple sandwiches here today and was pleasantly surprised. It’s your typical cold cut banh mi w different meats and a smearing of pâté. A great find for 5 $. You can make it a combo and pick a bottled drink and dessert (we got a slice of cheesecake — which was fluffy, a bit too eggy for me, but not bad) fo 2 $ more.
Wish were open late! I’d be buying late night banh mi’s here all the time.

Everyone’s reviewed the sandwiches but I want to talk about the other unique things they sell. I rarely go out to this side of town… but it is one of the few Vietnamese bakeries that carry Lunar new year treats, such as banh tet and banh chung (large rice cakes that consist of glutinous rice, mung beans and pork wrapped in banana leaves and then boiled for several hours). I went a few days before the actual new year and saw the staff wrapping freshly made ones! They also sell the pickled daikon and carrots that you eat with it. During the Moon Festival, they sell moon cakes too! It’s really difficult to find these seasonal, traditional Vietnamese foods in LA and I didn’t want to make the trek to the San Gabriel Valley or the OC.
Other items that I wanted to try that I can’t find near me were the cha lua (vietnamese pork sausage) and the nem chua (cured pork).
I’m definitely coming back to get moon cakes!

Love going to this spot for bahn mi’s as it’s quick, affordable, and great location with it’s own parking lot. I normally order the French bahn mi which is just ham, cheese, seasoned mayo and the normal bahn mi fixings. Satisfies my craving every time. And a full bahn mi for $ 5! Can’t be beat. I think you can add a drink and dessert for an additional $ 2. Besides bahn mi’s, this place is also popular for their moon cakes and really unique birthday cakes. They have some kind of artist living in the back kitchen because their cakes are so crazy!
They also have the best kinds of flavor Pocky that I can’t even find at my local Japanese market. Score.

This is my favorite «secret» sandwich spot in Echo Park for banh mi.
K.G. Bakery is cleverly setback from Echo Park Avenue, so it’s easy to miss it as you drive or walk by. My adoration for Vietnamese sandwiches harkens back to the days when my college roommate’s dad would walk into SF’s Tenderloin district to grab us some. Sure, there was an air of danger then for pork-​pâté so – when I discovered the ample parking, the $ 7 lunch combo for banh mi, drink, and a slice of cake – I was hooked.
The French baguettes are baked daily and serve as the perfect foil: moist center, nicely coated exterior. Pair your sandwich with a San Pellegrino Limonata and try a slice of the tres leches cake. You’re guaranteed to leave happy.

This place is a life saver. When another baker that was supposed to bake a special 65^th birthday for my grandmother had an emergency, I was left with 24 hours to find a bakery that would bake a cake with a picture and wouldn’t charge me an arm and a leg.
These guys said it was no problem. I placed the order over the phone, emailed the picture and picked it up today.
The cake looks amazing! Their customer service was excellent as well and the price was reasonable!
I will definitely order again.
