R' Noodles

I got the tastiest coconut bun here. It was so fresh and buttery that the aroma greeted me as soon as I opened the package. Wish I bought more goodies. Cashier was also extremely sweet.

This place has reopened for several months now. It's no longer sit down, instead it's a grab to go. They sell frozen dumplings, pot stickers, many other frozen goods, but I also come here for their baked goods. They're really fresh and delicious and price is very reasonable. Service have always been excellent and the quality is very high. I highly recommend and I think, they have one of the best pot stickers in Oakland. Very fresh too. Cheers!

Prices seemed a bit high for frozen dim sum but you get what you pay for here. Definitely higher quality than the frozen stuff at supermarkets. The Shanghai bun was juicy and on par with some actual restaurants. Great to have in your freezer for those random dim sum cravings at home. The cake was moist and slightly sweet, similar to uncle tetsu's Japanese cheesecakes. Minus a star for not having cooking instructions.

Discovered this place randomly from the delicious fresh baked bread smell coming out the door. A very no nonsense place selling bread, cookies and cakes. Service prompt and friendly.

The smell of the buns brought me into this place from the street, & my nose did not deceive me! I got a beef curry bun & a cocktail bun for $3.25. They were delicious, the buns were soft and fluffy, the beef was well flavored & the cocktail bun stuffing was just right. Not too much, not too little. Happy I found this little gem.

Absolutely delicious. Smelled good as soon as we walked in. Grabbed some fresh and delicious buns to go, ate them, and then came back like a half hour later for more!

Terrible please avoid to buy bakery from this shop my wife bought this Mocha roll yesterday August 27th, in the next day morning we found mold lucky she ate just only outside layer then found mold.

This places has re-opened as R Noodles & BAKERY. They are selling fresh pasta and fresh baked goods. Their egg custard tart is the bomb! I snagged the last two tarts today and they are delicious. I also picked up some cookies - pistachio, something I have never had. They now sell fresh pasta and Shanghainese or Cantonese "tamales". I also spotted a lot of handmade frozen dim sum type dumplings - xiao mai, jiaozi, and xiaolong bao - not the mass produced brands. This is a welcome addition to Oakland Chinatown.The staff are very friendly and happy to answer questions about their products. They told me they only open back up last week. The place is very clean and well lit. I'm very excited about their new concept.

Mostly posting this so it pops up when I search for jong, joong, zongzi, or tamale (let's go with "joong"), because I keep forgetting the name of this place and where it is.I usually drop by to get the frozen joong. There are a few varieties - one Shangainese, two Cantonese style. I think the Shanghai ones are pork? The Canto ones are pork, one with, one without peanuts. There's also a red bean one, but I am more into the savory ones. $4.50 per piece. I think the Canto no peanuts are the best.
