Maxin Oriental Bakery 美心烘焙 — Restaurant in Lauderdale Lakes

OK yeah the pastries are good but the wife was rude on the phone and the husband was even ruder in person. First time going there and we needed to decide what we wanted, he was pacing at the register grunting and groaning making us feel rushed. There was literally no other customers and he was just standing there clipping his nails. Absolutely not making this up. Then at the last minute I told him we'd like one more item added, and he exclaimed something as if annoyed. I get it's authentic cultural treatment of customers but come on. Also, the place smells like ashtray, wish they would do something about that god awful smell.

Edit: Also I find it odd that within hours of my reviews there were suddenly ten 5 star reviews all done at the same time when this place barely had any reviews over the span of years. And they're all advertising the fresh bread and low prices, come on down. And one even went on to rebut my statement saying the owner was super friendly, lol. If you click on the profile of these reviewers they all gave Maxin 5 stars while rating the same other place 1 star. Must be their competition. Shady practice...

I love this bakery, its a mom and pop shop; its quaint, but high quality for a great price. I've stopped in at random intervals, and the meat buns are alway fresh and delicious; and pastry selections are amazing as well. I would recommend the pork buns for anyone that hasn't had one before- savory, as well as the hot dog bun (it reminds me of pigs in a blanket). From my experience its been CASH ONLY, so bring some cash and be surprised with how much food you can...

Food here tastes delicious. 9/10 would come back here again! Fresh bread is hard to make and find. So glad for this bakery! Bread is sold at $1.80 and $2.00 a piece last time I went!

Notice: Baking high quantities of bread fresh requires high amounts of labor and high temperatures in the oven. This can cause many burns, pain, problems, anger for the chef. The price which the bread is sold at is a downright bargain even though it is not...
