Ordered the Chicago Salad, Tomato Pie & Potato (added pancetta-amazing choice) and asked for them to be well done. Really enjoyed the flavor & balance of both the red and white sauces. On Chris' recommendation we tried the Churro Custard with a side of hot honey! Can't wait to go back for another amazing date night

The decor is classy yet casual. There's a cute photobooth and play area for the kids. As for food, I was super excited to try their Al Pastor pizza, a Mexican-American take on a pineapple pizza. Unfortunately, by the time I sat for dinner, they were out of most of their menu, including the al pastor. I am NOT docking them for points for running out of things on opening weekend. It's so hectic I'm sure, and it's a lot to have to figure out. They were able to make the pizza with pork belly instead of al pastor though. It was pretty good, but honestly forgettable. I also think that their menu is pretty expensive for their portions and offerings. I know they were running low on items, but the toppings were definitely skimpy. I would like to come back to try a couple of more things from their menu, including their extensive variety of beers.  PRO TIP: save room for dessert and get fresh churros from the very nice lady outside at Churros Juquilita

Truly the best pizza and parppadelle wagyu pasta I've ever had. And I kid you not, one of the best iced teas as well. I can't wait to come back next time I visit long beach!

The pastas are delightful and the wine list is great, which honestly is all I need to feel good about a spot. My husband is a pizza person through and through, and even though Marlena is not really positioned as a pizza place, the pizza won him over completely. That says a lot. The ambiance is wonderful and the fact that it's mostly outdoors makes it dog friendly, which is always a bonus for us. The food across the board is just solid and well executed without trying too hard to be anything other than what it is. A really warm, genuinely enjoyable dinner in Long Beach and one we will likely be returning to.

I ordered a double espresso, but they spilled a bit of it on the saucer before it got to me; and they forgot about it (they brought out my friend's coffee order but forgot about mine). I'm big on checking on the table periodically (ie refilling water, etc), and ours didn't. I had to stop someone to get a water refill. But the food was delicious! I ate every bite. And love all the breakfast and lunch options; also all the sides and salad options too. I think it's gonna be a somewhat regular spot for me.

I walk here from work and the wait times fluctuate depending on the weekday (mon and fri are…read moreusually the busiest during lunchtime). The drinks are consistent and ive had several matchas so far. Id say the matchas are more on the watery side (i dont mean diluted, but the matcha is not that creamy). The following is my review of the matchas ive tried: 1) banana jackfruit matcha: jackfruit taste isnt strong and i wish it was a bit stronger. It was more fragrant than flavorful. however, i do enjoy the taste of banana and jackfruit together. Its very unique and i havent seen cafes with this flavor combo before 2) mot hai ba (pandan + coconut): my all time favorite. The cream top help makes the matcha thicker and all the flavors are balanced well 3) strawberry shortcake matcha: strawberry flavor is not that strong imo and most of the strawberry flavor i got was from the topping itself. I recommend this to people who wanna try matcha for the first time 4) lychee matcha: initial taste threw me off, but its refreshing and it grew on me the more i drank it. However, i personally wouldnt get this again The only qualm i have with this place is that there hasnt been any air conditioning in the store during the two weeks ive visited. IT IS STUFFY AND HOT. i sweat so much whenever i come visit. fortunately, the drinks come out super fast. The lack of ventilation is not stopping me from coming back tho
