I love this place. Large variety of breakfasts: Mexican antojitos, Burritas Catrachas (Honduras), Chapin breakfast (Guatemala), Guanaco breakfast (El Salvador), many Mexican breakfast, baleadas catrachas (Honduras, mexican and salvadoran tamales, over 18 pupusa flavors, over 8 tamale flavors, chalupas, empalmes, huaraches, pambazos, tlayudas, morelianas, plus all the typical mexican dishes like tacos, over 15 kinds of burritos,flautas, gorditas, memelas, mulitas, nachos, flour and corn quesadillas, taquitos, tacos dorados, tostadas, etcetera. Also delicious birria, picadillo, chiles rellenos filled with cheese or picadillo, And hands down the best chorizo in town, according to our clients What's not to love? Oh, and don't get me started on the chicharrones in green sauce. They also make cakes and unique pastries, including authentic cannolis and the best coffee cake in the Antelope Valley. Again, what's not to love? read more

Talked to the owner for awhile after purchasing my usual tamales & pupusas (which are unmatched). He eluded to the fact that numerous other Mexican restaurants in his immediate area are troublesome to his establishment but I personally feel he has no competition based on his tenure there, the unmatchable cuisine, and the huge selection on their menu to choose from. The only concern is how long the pandemic will last which is, at present time, the main concern for all establishments. Therefore, I join the many other positive reviews (which far outweigh the negative ones) to shout "MARIBEL'S IS THE BEST!!" read more

This business Maribel's has been here for more than 20 years, the Maribel's on Lancaster Blvd was our second store ,a little different than the original and it was owed by the original owners son . He was forced out by the landlord because he wanted to rent the space to somebody else. We have never been closed. The original owners are still there as mangers. The new owner-has introduced a variety of foods from Mexico City and it's surrounding neighbors but we still sell pupusas and tamales , come and enjoy Good food . read more

I recently bought the cake and dessert table for my daughter's 16th birthday, everything was delicious. Their tres leches cake, with guallava and strawberry, the velvety red one and the carrot one are a delight. And yesterday I tried a new one that they have with tres leches and red fruits, it is delicious. Their birria, pupusas, cakes, burritos, quesadillas, red enchiladas, stuffed chiles, chilaquiles, everything I've tried is delicious. read more

She kept arguing we needed to inform her in order for us to get the discount. It is not my responsibility to remind you of your prices and promotional offers. They need to honor what's advertised.

The place itself is clean and the staff are genuinely kind, but the ice cream just didn't wow us. It felt a bit generic for the price. While sitting there, though, I noticed they had a full food menu. Salvadoran food, to be exact, and I absolutely love a good pupusa. So we ordered a couple... and wow. They were seriously good. Since that visit, we've come back multiple times, but only for the hot food. The pupusa plates and the Salvadoran dishes in general are consistently delicious and taste homemade. The desserts, on the other hand, are still a complete miss for us. So here's my honest take: skip the ice cream, come for the pupusas. If you're craving solid Salvadoran comfort food, this place is definitely worth it.

Their selection isn't huge, but the quality of the bread makes up for it. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that the customer service could be a little friendlier. The woman helping me was nice, but I felt a bit rushed while I was choosing my bread. There is plenty of parking, and they accept cash, credit/debit cards, and tap-to-pay, which is very convenient. As for the ambiance, it's a very small neighborhood bakery. It's more of a place to stop in, grab fresh bread, and head out rather than a spot to sit down or hang out. Overall, it's a great local bakery if you're looking for fresh, tasty Mexican sweet bread.
