Our Roots

Growing up on his mother's hearty and delicious recipes, Joon always instinctively understood the unmistakable healing power and comfort of good food. This belief motivated his 20 years of experience as a professional baker and patissier in South Korea and the United States. 

Years of hard work and innovation gave way to the restaurant familiar to so many now: JLB Eatery. Joon’s beginnings as a patissier and as his mother’s son continue to inspire our food philosophy today. We make our food with love and care. Our ingredients are high-quality and fresh. And - as our community knows so well today - our hamburger buns are baked daily with the very recipe Joon spent years perfecting to its heavenly softness.

We are so excited and grateful to grow with our community, and remain steadfast in our belief that at JLB Eatery, you should never leave without a full and happy stomach!
