Pâtisserie Chantilly — Restaurant in Lomita

We decided to stop in after eating hawaiian food. We always try to get the seasame cream puffs, which is always sold out. It was 1230. . We mistakenly brought a small to go box inside. When I set it down with the rest of my family they remind us my daughter can't consume food or a snowcone while were eating a cream puffs it's against there rules, the first thing the lady said was that we couldn't have outside food inside. so I just asked for a sesame cheesecake to go because I felt like a leper if we stayed but my daughter had to eat outside while we ate cheesecake inside. WTF. So from now on I'll say to my friends and families " yes their pastries are good , but you'll never get a seasame creampuff, And don't you dare take a picture inside, and never bring food in even if you have the intention buying for your family of 4 AND ordering for a private function at HONDA CORPORATION. Which would have rolled into a event at FEDEX. I intend to take my business were my family are treated well and I can eat what...

I don't know why it took me so long to try this incredible Japanese bakery, but so glad we did! Tucked in a small shopping center in Lomita, they are open for takeout only.

The cream puffs are made fresh to order in three delicious flavors: vanilla Chantilly cream, chocolate, and black sesame (amazing!). The choux pastry is light and crisp.

We also tried the chestnut coffee roll cake, the matcha layer cake, the chocolate ganache tart, and white chocolate-dipped matcha sables. All of which I would purchase again! They have excellent flavor with just the right amount of sweetness. You really can't go wrong, and next time I'm asked to bring dessert to a group dinner, I'm stopping at...

We stumbled into this charming little gem at 2383 Lomita Blvd and left floating on clouds made of chiffon cake and matcha foam. Think French elegance meets Japanese finesse—delicate, light, not-too-sweet cakes that basically whispered to our taste buds. 🍰💫

Paired with a café latte and matcha so smooth it could sing jazz, every bite and sip was perfection. The service? Like a warm hug wrapped in whipped cream—so kind and welcoming! 🤗☕️

We loved it so much we walked out with TWO boxes of cakes (no regrets, only crumbs). And yes, we’re 1000% coming back for the twin daughters’ birthday cake—because what’s better than a birthday? A Chantilly birthday. 🎂🎉👯‍♀️

PSA: If you haven’t been yet, RUN, don’t walk. Your taste buds will thank you. #CakeGoals #ChantillyMagic...
