TMJ Cafe & Dough

OMG!! Coffee that tastes how it?s supposed to. I can taste the espresso in my latte without having to ask for more. I?ve been here a few times so far, and I love it. I?ve only had the rose latte, salted caramel cookies, and breakfast burrito. All 5 stars. Can?t wait to try more of the menu.

Thank you. Soft n delicious Donuts. Apple fritter is one of my favorite ones. Delicious. First time stopping by. Won't be our last.

I've been living in Gardena since 2006 and this is definitely the best cafe we've had. I've only been here 3 times but every single time was amazing. Their menu is huge but breakfast is my favorite and I can't resist. I also have a weakness for donuts and those are great here as well. Their staff are all nice and welcoming and make the experience that much better. I will continue to come here so I can try more things on the menu. I'm updating my review months later and I still love this place. Their option

It is a very neat and organized place. Plenty of parking space and seating area( when seating is allowed again) Donuts are really good, in flavor, size and weight, pretty filling. I got strawberry cheese filled yum! Along with other donuts. The caramel coffee shake is also very good and it has a perfect sweet. It is a bit up on price but its most likely because of the quality of the pastries. So overall THUMBS UP!

Loved this place. Will definitely return to try some of the other menu items. The place is clean and currently only offers take out. My wife and I only tried their donuts but will be returning to try the sandwiches. We were hoping to try the bacon donut xbut they were out. Get there early if you want to try it. Donuts were delicious. I had a chocolate old fashioned and an Oreo donut. My wife had a raisin and crumb donut. They were amazing. They even threw in some donut holes for free. Highly reco

First time trying this place. I noticed it driving down western and it looked interesting. The inside is super cute and clean. The menu is huge, it has breakfast, lunch and drinks. We got the breakfast sandwich A (ham cheese mayo and egg) on a croissant, a blueberry cheesecake pastry and a strawberry bomb. We also got a rose latte and a lavender latte. The lavender was very subtle but the rose was super fragrant. The sandwich was pretty hearty, I smothered mine with jalapeno and it was so good. Everything w

Our first time here.. donut was delicious! And customer service was excellent! We also order a medium ice lavender latte and a large rose latte coffee but to my opinion it was a little on the sweet side. Mayb next time I'll asked for half sweet, if that's possible? ?? But overall, we have to go back for the croissants! It wasn't there when we went but the names on the display lol will make me head back.

I always try to find a brisket pastrami sandwich. I've noticed that the brisket pastrami always has a better taste and texture than on other meats. I found this place that had a brisket pastrami and had yo try it. Ir was really good with their combination of the ingredients. My wife got the Turkey Pesto which it was also good. Everything from here looked good their stickers on the box was really impressive and professional.

THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO FOR QUICK BREAKFAST! I?m from out of town and discovered this place one morning. Then I went back the next three days in a row! Breakfast sandwiches are made to order. The Cheese Muffins were the best muffins I?ve ever had in my life. They use Boar?s Head deli meats on their sandwiches and in the Ham and Cheese croissants. People need to find this place and try it. It might be a little pricey but by god it?s worth every penny. Very very very delicious.

It's been a while since I last came here to get food. And they never disappoint. I got the pastrami brisket and provolone on sourdough bread. Very flavorful! Update: I love this place. I'm not changing my rating. But the pastrami wasn't good on Wednesday. It was full of grease and no flavor. Maybe it was a slow day, and no one ordered Pastrami, or they cooked too much. IDK, but it wasn't my normal experience. The reason why I said I wouldn't change my rating is that this was the first time and hoping the l

The salted croissants are absolutely amazing! And generally speaking all their dough products are top notch. Homemade and always fresh, a great way to start the day.

I was craving a coffee and wanted to try a new spot. TMJ was close by, so I decided to check them out. They have a pretty big menu which was kind of overwhelming. I just went with some bombs and doughs, an iced vanilla latte, and a Thai tea. I wanted to add boba, but they didn't have any. :( The bombs and doughs were tasty, and the iced vanilla latte hit the spot! The inside was clean, and there was plenty of parking. I will for sure come back.

Hey ???? I?ll leave my honest review here. Overall the place is clean, it has good vibe, and cute. No public restrooms. I also ordered a rose latte and an almond dulce donut ?? which both were good. The donut was so soft and fresh. My fav. Is the spicy chicken club ?? good customer service. I come here all the time. Food is really good ????

Ordered a mocha latte. Received poured coffee with mocha flavor. $10 sandwich was very thin and definitely not with the price.

SO DELICIOUS! The staff was very friendly and fast. I ordered a ham & Swiss croissant which was decent size, fluffy and had quality cheese. I also ordered the TMJ Iced Cafe (condensed milk), which was very tasty. It was lightly sweetened, and the coffee flavor came through. The donuts here are something else! I had the Matcha Almond Blanc and Maple Bacon donuts, and let me tell you that the dough was incredible. They were very fluffy and not overly sweet. This place has many options, and they are all del

I had their Pastrami Sandwich, nice crunchy french roll toasted, Boars Head Pastrami, lettuce, tomato. When you use a great brand of meat you can't go wrong. Great Sandwich. Also tried the Veggie Burrito with lots of veggies in a wheat or flour tortilla. Love this place.

The donuts are awesome here! Different varieties to choose from and so soft and tasty! My favorite is the Matcha Almond and my kiddo lives the Snickers with an actual chunk of it on top.We love their thai tea too! The owners are very friendly and gracious

The apple fritter was one of the best I've had. The coffee and doughnuts will have us stopping by again!

I enjoy their Iced and Blended Coffees, They have many flavors and many great pastries you should check out as well.

My friend moises got the thai slushy for me-it is so delish. Never found a slush with good flavor. Thank you MOISES!

Ordered from this spot. Sandwiches are toasted, really good, and filling. Will definitely try them again.

Picked up a dozen croissants before work for my crew. These guys are ginormous and a little on the heavier side but they?re delicious! Eat half for breakfast and the other half on your break. Gotta check out their sandwiches, pastries and donuts next time. They?re conveniently located off the Western Ave. exit from the 405. Corner of 182 and Western. Take a detour and check em out!

The TMJ Iced Cafe was good. Wide selection of donuts and pastries with fair prices.

I had to plan a last minute breakfast for a coworker and since I love the breakfast burritos from TMJ Cafe i thought everyone else would too! They had everything ready when I got there and are always so happy and appreceative. Love this place! Oder the Supreme Doughnuts Box they're gorgeous and totally worth it!

These are by far the freshest, most delicious, heart felt doughnuts ever! I hardly ever eat them but if it's from TMJ I'm definitely having some! Best Doughnuts in town!

I went this morning to place after having a few, which is in the parade once the burrito exchange compensate me. They told me no, and then told me next time say light onion.

Oreo donut yumm Salted Caramel donut yumm Roast beef sandwich (unexpectedly had jalape?os or something super spicy! Noooo) hopefully they won't add that again.

Fave spot, wifi included, coffee definitely wakes you up, perfect for breakfast and lunch. Great music and great customer service too.

I love this place. I love every donut I've tried, and the rose latte turned into one of my all-time favorite coffee drinks. I go every week because I love it so much -- it's such a lovely treat. The owner is super friendly, the service is always speedy, and the place is spotless even when it's busy. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for scrumptious food. (If you want a savory option, I HIGHLY recommend the tuna sandwich on a croissant. It's the best I've ever had.)

I come here pretty often, and every time, I am satisfied with the food and drinks. I love ordering my Iced Matcha Latte here. Their breakfast menu is my favorite. I've had their omelets and burritos. Definitely recommend coming here.

Love this mom and pop donut and sandwich shop!! Conveniently located on a major street corner (182nd/Western) for easy access. Their donuts never miss - light and airy for the raised ones, dense and satisfying for the cake ones. Their full sandwich menu is available any time, and I've gotta say there's something particularly satisfying about putting down an entire roast beef sandwich at 6am. Super friendly service and great food...can't ask for much else!

The best donuts in LA County are right here at Western and 182nd. I recommend the cinnamon twist donuts, Samoa donuts and basic glazed donuts. Absolutely amazing. The best donuts I?ve ever had.

Excellent food. Fresh ingredients and super friendly service.

I love the inside setup of the place. This is a good spot to hangout with friends or do some work. Sandwich was good. Thai iced tea was not amazing, tasted way different from normal. The pastries looked amazing but I didn't try them, but might next time.

Yummy sandwich and friendly staff!

You walk in and it smells delicious!! I got two sandwiches and they were amazing just really good I try to stop by after work and pick a different one off the menus and I have not been disappointed yet. Cookies are soft and Percy with a glass of milk.

Usually not a fan of sandwiches but the pesto turkey sandwich was really good definitely will be going back !!

Their doughnuts are awesome imo. They have some sort of lemon flavors in the dough mix. Very delish. Also their breakfast croissants are pretty good as well. They have a lot of menu items so plenty to try. The staff is super friendly if not a bit soft-spoken due to language barriers. The only downside is the coffee. It's pretty disgusting. ???. If they could get their coffee fixed, I would come here more often. As it is I find myself going to Krispy Kreme or Redondough more often these days because their c

Best crullers ever. Large selection of teas and sandwiches as well. Once I was in line and apparently the guy behind me was wanting to order a cruller. I (ahead of him) ordered one dozen to take back to the family. He was very angry and threw a small adult tantrum in the line, so I let him go ahead of me and order his one cruller. He says, "this is a very under appreciated donut". I could not agree more. Turns out I still got my dozen. LOL

Came here a few times before, now finally writing a review. This place is so underrated! I?ve been to a few sandwich places in Torrance and this is easily one of the better ones. This place is definitely better then Giulianos and yo way. Every time I come here with my husband we share a sandwich with chips and a drink. I think I?ve tried like 3 different sandwiches here and all of them were really good! Also the sandwiches are huge so we always share it.

Great omelets and breakfast burritos, the best apple fritters and cinnamon donuts by far & my go to for flavored lattes.

Pastrami sandwich on French roll is solid! Inhaled it.

There is no doubt in my mind that anything you get will be good. I have no complaints except maybe the hours. I would really like for them to open during the night. Every here and there I get a free donut. That's always nice because it shows how willing they to keep their customers coming back. Also they use Boars Head, the Best!

This place is great! I love their donuts. They're light, fluffy and fresh tasting. I also got the double shot cold brew (I think) and it was one of the best cold brews I've had. I'm going back for sure!

Best deluxe donuts in LA County. Yes, I?ve tried most of the big names. These donuts are amazing. Worth the trip. This is a grab and go location.

Delicious! I seriously love everything I've tried so far at this place. The TMJ Iced coffee has to be my favorite version of a vietnamese coffee because the sweetness is just right. And balance of milk to coffee is perfect. Their sandwiches are also very good, always generously filled with the meats and veggies and quite flavorful! I'm not a huge fan of donuts, but theirs are pretty good, quite big and fluffy. Definitely on the doughy side I think.and amazing variety. My husband likes donuts more than me an

It?s illegal not to provide customers with free water upon request.

We came in for all the different selections of their sandwiches. They were delicious!!! All the different selections of their home made doughnuts were great. The place needs more exposure. That being said. Kind of hard to spot on , off the street!!.

Delicious donuts and super friendly workers. I love this place!!!

I ordered 25 sandwiches from TMJ off their basic sandwich menu. The manager and staff were very nice and the food was very presentable for our company lunch.

The owner is a super awesome human being! The staff here is very friendly and provide authentic quality customer service. I fell in love with their "oven-gold turkey & provolone cheese" sandwich lightly toasted on croissant and their "Pi?a Colada" shake as well as their "Berry Blend" shake!! ?? Oh!! Let me not get started on their fresh delicious doughnuts!!!! Mmmm!! Everything is made fresh to order here and the location is clean and safe with everyone abiding by Covid-19 health regulations. You will not b

So glad to have a good cafe within walking distance now! The coffee and drinks are pretty great, breakfast burrito is very, very good, and doughnuts are solid. Does the plan glaze best Randy's? No, but it's pretty close and TMJ is much eaiser for me to get to. Sandwiches are solid too!

TMJ Fan Club sandwich was delicious, and the Chai Latte was perfect. Got two donuts (Dulce de Leches and Old Fashioned) and got some donut holes for free! Awesome place that is worth every penny!

This place is great. Their drinks, their pastries, my favorite is the ham and cheese croissant. I think it's underhyped. They should be packed with the quality food and drinks they have. God bless! #Jesus loves you

Pass this place from time to time. We were having a family celebration and decided to try this place out. I'm so happy I did. Their crossisant breakfast sandwiches were amazing and huge. I called in my order and was ready in 15 minutes. This is now going to be my spot!

Super good drinks! ( My favorite is the Thai Tea shake with boba) Also has really delicious doughnuts and other baked goods. (My favorite is the cheese muffin) If I could give more stars then I would definitely give this place a 10/10 The picture is the Rainbow Cloud (Coconut Milk Tea with Crystal Boba)

TMJ is the best corner cafe in the area. Their menu is far smaller than Yellow Basket (which used to be there), Fantastic's, or Country Cafe, but their prices are comparable or lower for what they have. They have breakfast and lunch/dinner options as well as a DELICIOUS coffee shake, among various milkshakes. They opened mid-pandemic so they are very safe and due their support!

You will pay.50 cents more for a donut that's the same taste as everywhere else. Spent $8 on coffee and two donuts. Anywhere else will cost me like 5$ to 6$. Won't be returning.

Ordered a coffee and apple fritter donut. The coffee was ok but, the apple fritter was absolutely amazing. Wow. I'm going back for the baked goods again.

6 out of 5 stars! Not only does the food look good its bussing!! So so good. Fat boy recomended!!

I've been to a handful of donut shops in the North Torrance/Gardena area, but this is my favorite place and is now my go to. They also had decent drinks as well!

Food taste great, really high priced, but that's ok because it's good. Don't visit if you're black! They are extremely rude to us. If u don't mind being treated like you're a nuisance that it's a good lunch spot.

Coffee was good and service was friendly but their crossaints are over baked. Tasted like a skyflake dry cracker. Id come back for the coffee, but their baked goods was not that good.

Loved this place. Wish there was one closer to me in Long Beach. Had a dirty chai (the best) and the turkey avocado sandwich (WOW). The sandwich was one of the best ones I?ve had. Can?t wait to go back again. 10 out of 10

"The Food is Excellent.? I had the Matcha Almond Blanc, a sandwich and their Jasmine tea. It was delicious.This place has lots of options. They have great customer service.

This place was apparently so good that my wife had it and still hasn't shut up about it for the past 2 weeks. Every day all I hear is: OHMUHGAWD it was soooo good. She had a frozen coffee and a donut, and a croissant sandwich sort of thing. If you haven't tried this place and loved it. Youre the problem.

My girlfriend and I live right down the street from this place and we've been going there for the past few days to try different things from their menu and literally everything we've ordered has been delicious. I highly recommend TMJ Fan Club sandwich and their breakfast burritos.

Inconspicuous corner coffee shop among a lot of competition that stands out for authenticity. Great service, generous and fast. Top tier house iced coffee, ham & cheese croissants and donuts.

My plain coffee was burnt, the sandwich barely had a thousand island and lastly the bathroom was closed for customers. The people at the counter was great.

This is my neighborhood Cafe and I love it! Delicious coffee, incredible pastries and donuts and above all a wonderful staff. I'm all about supporting local and this place is a little slice of tasty magic.

First time coming here got the spicy chicken sandwich and dulce de leche croissant. The sandwich is a big serving very good and the dulcet de leche is amazing ! Will be coming back !

Service is fast and straightforward. Very organized and clean. They serve boarshead deli meat here which was a surprise

Great coffee and breakfast Delicious and the staff is always friendly!

My wife and I tried this place and loved it! From the donuts to their sandwiches, including the coffees & teas. Everything is made fresh to order.

No restroom, which is very annoying. Otherwise, I'd stop here more often and have business coffee meetings here. Good sandwiches, good donuts, and I like the dirty chai.

Pastries are always fresh and delightful. Croissants are flakey and super buttery!! My daughter is in love with their lavender latte and my son loves their doughnuts ??

I usually reserve reviews for good businesses. Well this is not one. I don't think it is fair for other businesses that comply with city code and have restrooms available to be put in the same category of this one which doesnt even have restrooms for customers.

Second time here and i always hear arguing behind the counter. Hope is not with the employees. Maybe thats the reason why she/him greet us without energy or enthusiasm. ??

Yes I recommend this place is a great excellent donuts terrific service very polite generosity I would recommend it to my neighbors my friends my family also my cousin came down from Corona to come and taste her delicious donuts muffins and her Danish and they're wonderful coffee even though gas is up they made the effort to travel to come to this fabulous donut shop so please try it any retiring parties any office parties graduation this is the place to get a terrific excellent sweet tooth delicious donuts

Jalapeno croissants are really good always fresh. And the owner is always friendly and the morning staff is great ????

The pastries are OK, but the same quality that any other donut shop , but if if we talk anout ham cheese and egg and the breakfast burrito it was pretty good.

The freshest, best tasting donuts in town! This is my family's go to spot for donuts! Customer service is great as well.

Great place , fresh to order food. Great family owned business. Friendly staff. I would like to to say that their Oreo cookie doughnut is delish! Love love it

So much I wanted to try here, and I will be back. The danish and breakfast sandwich were delicious. Big plus is they open early, plus good service. Easy to enter and exit.

Great breakfast sandwiches! Donuts are good but a tad too oily/greasy for my taste. Pretty expensive too!

My girlfriend and I have been coming here almost daily since it first opened! Love it! They have all become our friends here!

The donuts are delicious! Went here for the first time today and will definitely be back! Loved it.

Found this place by accident & is my go to for lunch/coffee throughout my work week. Food is consistent, fresh & coffee is strong!
