Patisserie Tomoko: A Delightful Japanese Bakery Experience in Brooklyn

I finally visited this place last weekend after saving it on my list for a while. My friend, who isn’t really into desserts, skipped the dessert course and ordered an Americano with the staff-recommended Matcha Tiramisu. The greenery-filled interior and natural sunlight gave the space a warm, vintage vibe that felt super cozy. I was hoping for a rich and bold flavor, but the matcha tiramisu turned out to be lighter with a subtle matcha taste, which was a bit disappointing for me. That said, I think people who prefer more delicate flavors would enjoy it. Overall, it’s worth a visit!

There are some interesting desserts here. They also have a Pre-fixe dessert menu. The Cream Puff is and the Pumpkin pie is also very good. There desserts are Japanese with French techniques. It's not cheap but the quality is worth the price

Last night I dreamed about the yuzu cheesecake, the cream puff and sparkling yuzu drink. Yesterday, I finally ate desserts at Patisserie Tomoko with Raj who had told me that he wanted to take me there. Raj has been here countless times and likes it a lot. We sat at the counter which was comfortable. Bring a weekday, there were few customers. We ordered cappuccinos, two cream puffs, a gâteau au chocolat and a yuzu cheesecake. All the pastries were delicious. Then Raj told me that I simply had to have the refreshing yuzu drink. Freshly made, it was ambrosial. I could have had two. We ate slowly and finished every bite. Chef Tomoko and Chef Hiro were hard at work prepping. Billie Holiday was singing among other jazz singers. Chef Hiro enjoys jazz. The weekends here get busy so it was good that we came on a weekday. I am planning to return for more of the yuzu cheesecake and drink. The interior had lots of foliage and some pictures.

It was on my list to check out this place for a while. I was excited to try the pastry, but there was no seating so we decided to have prix fixe dessert ($29.50) at the bar. Next time we will just get the ready- made pastry from the counter and take it to the park to eat. Chestnut tart looked amazing. For three course dessert, we chose Mont Blanc. Since its tasting course, portions were small. If you compare with ready-made pastry you see in the display, it’s about 1/4 size. Each course was creatively plated and nice. Cappuccino was good.

Have wanted to go here for so long and finally did. Delicious! The pumpkin pie (apparently made with Japanese pumpkin) was delicious and won high praise all around the house as truly unique and high quality. Also enjoyed the chocolate was banana dessert. Look forward to trying more goodies in the future!

I tried the Pecan Caramel Tart and the Chocolate Banana Tart, and they were absolutely delicious. The flavors were layered beautifully, you can really taste the quality of each ingredient. The pecan tart had that perfect balance of rich caramel and toasted pecans, not too sweet, just the right depth of flavor. And the chocolate banana mousse cake was incredibly smooth and airy, with the banana adding a natural sweetness that paired so well with the chocolate. Truly a memorable dessert experience. Highly recommend!

Really lovely bakery !!!! I loved my smiski cake so much ! so cute and made me smile so much! I couldn’t eat the beautifully made art work ! The taste was sooo rich too ! This is actually my 3rd cake from them, the first time was my boyfriend’s birthday last year (it was so yummy we forgot to take a picture), the second was for his birthday this year! All 3 times I have interacted with them they have always been so kind and the energy is very calm and chill ! Very authentic spot that has earned my patronage ! I will gladly order again for another event :+)

The dessert selection was great, tastes amazing, and presentation even better. Minor note on utensils and plating (hard to eat certain items due to plate instead of bowl), and perhaps exchanging stools or seating that's more comfortable for eating dessert instead of drinks.
