    Menudo con pata y granos (homemade corn tortillas!!!)
    Chad K.

    Great food. I just wanted some more meat in my bowl. I got it "con pata" so the pig foot took up most of the room in the bowl and there is not a lot of meat on the pata. More tripe would have been better. Other than that, I loved the recipe. Nice and thick with the right amount of spice kick in there and fresh sides (lime, chili, onion, oregano). And the tortillas tasted handmade. Warm, fluffy and delicious. Next time I'm just going to order it "sin pata", but other than that, a perfect bowl of menudo.

    Was in the area and stumbled upon this awesome home-bakery! This Mexican & Guatemalan inspired bakery was such a perfect treat for the day! Aesthetics & Ambiance: 8/10 the ambiance is quiet and low key and the aesthetic feels like you walked into your childhood bakery. Service: 9/10 everyone was so kind, and walked me through each item so I knew what the flavors were. They also brought complimentary chips and dip with was a nice touch. I'm not entirely sure the name of each item, but... The sugar & vanilla cream bread: 7.5/10 was a bit sweet but the vanilla cream was perfect! The bread topped with cream and sugar: 6.5/10 it was good, but the bread being so tall with it only on one side left the bread a bit dry. The strawberry & cream pastry: 7/10 was really good, the bread does get a little tough. Get it warmed up before and it's amazing!! They have many other amazing pastries to try!

    Pupusas
    Norma S.

    Came here on a Saturday around 4pm. Parking lot available. Plenty seating inside. Friendly service they had some music playing. Ordered the pupusas revueltas they were big and flavorful. The jugo de papaya and mango were freshly done. The pickled onions topping was really good. Only thing the table could've been cleaned a bit more throughly. And metal utensils. All in all good for price to taste was worth it!

    Panadería plus a restaurant all in one. They also have natural juices, smoothies, aguas frescas and coffee beverages. They have a pupusas special on Wednesday: 6 pupusas for $19.99. They offer menudo daily and lots of yummy desert options too. They have a fairly large seating/dining with AC with clean restrooms and lots of front parking. (That can be an issue with a lot of LBC establishments and super inconvenient when you want to go to eat but can't find parking). Definitely recommend and would come back!

    Caldo de Res con arroz

    The food is 100% authentic Mexican and Guatemalteco food. Everything is full of flavor and portions are full filling. Service is fast and attentive. Ambiance's is great everyone is so friendly! Would recommend and return with the whole family to try everything on the menu!

    Wonderful people! I love their baked goods, my new all time favorites! Gives very friendly family vibes too, feels just like I'm greeted as family.

    Molletes
    Kristina F.

    This Marilu's location (versus the OG one down a few blocks on Cherry) was less panaderia and more little cafe with an amalgamation of home-style Guatemalan, Salvadorian, and Mexican fare. My husband and teen ordered pupusas, which were piping hot and freshly made, with a generous amounts of filling (especially the frijoles). Their curtido was tangy and they had this awesome chile to spice it up along with the standard salsa roja. I ordered the molletes, fresh bolillo split and slathered with beans and a healthy sprinkling of white cheese melted on top. It was simple, delicious, and super filling. We got my toddler a licuado de platano. They must have known it was going to be for him because they mixed in some choco milk powder in too. It was SO much for the cost. I'd go back just for that.

    pupusa revuelta & chicharron con queso!
    Brianna S.

    I had an amazing experience here! The revuelta and chicharrón con queso pupusas were absolutely delicious--soft, flavorful, and packed generously with filling. You can really taste the quality and care in each bite. The curtido (pickled cabbage salad) and salsa that come on the side were just as impressive--fresh, tangy, and served so you can top your pupusas just the way you like them. As soon as we sat down, we were greeted with a complimentary soup and warm bread, which was such a comforting and thoughtful touch. The entire meal felt like home. To top it off, the cashier/waitress was incredibly friendly, sweet, and polite. She made sure we had everything we needed, was very accommodating, and made the whole experience feel welcoming and relaxed. Highly recommend this place especially for pupusa Tuesday where each one is 3.25!--authentic flavors, great service, and generous portions. I'll definitely be coming back for $21!

    Great bakery! Some kind of amazing strawberry roll with coconut on the outside and a solid cup of coffee. Good service and chill ambiance.

    Skarleth C.

    Honestly, this location has the best pupusas ever! Whether you're dining in or taking your order to go, the quality is always great. One of the perks of eating in is that you get to enjoy their complimentary veggie soup. The ambiance is nice, and the staff are very attentive. I do recommend ordering ahead if you're picking up especially on Tuesdays!

    Picamas Salsa Brava
    Dustin B.

    The chilaquiles plate looked too big so I ordered a torta version. I asked if it was spicy and the lady said a little. She was right. It was just spicy enough for me. The griddled torta bread was super fresh. The chips were lightly sauced and placed on the bread with black bean spread, mayo, and crumbled fresh cheese. Before it arrived someone popped out and asked if I wanted onion on it and I said yes but no onions were in the sandwich so I blame my poor Spanish. The red sauce on the chips was pretty basic with a strange bitter aftertaste. Maybe it's more Guatemalan or Salvadorean than Mexican. I'm used to richer warm red sauces. All in all I like the place and people and want to try other dishes but wouldn't order this torta again.

They recently expanded to the space next door to expand service and hours! For a short while, Colossus had chairs and tables outside. I went at least weekly to enjoy a casual breakfast. The tables and chairs went away as LB City doesn't allow without a public bathroom! Now Colossus has a sit down restaurant, full table service along with two very nice restrooms! They also have plans to bring back rhe casual sidewalk seating! We went for breakfast. Serving some of their regular (and beloved items) and also some new ones, like a French Style Omelet and Stuffed Grench Toast! You can still order any kind of coffee or tea drink! Many of us have our regular favorite drinks! The restaurant is open from 8am-9pm. They serve breakfast/lunch then after 4pm dinner including their beloved pizza! That's my only complaint here, I want pizza for lunch, or even breakfast, hint, hint, hint! Service was excellent! Sydney was our server and he was very friendly and helpful. Although the menu is limited, you want it all, hard to decide and he really helped! Sydney surprised my friend with her order and she was thrilled. Great pick too! For drinks we ordered our usual and as always made just how we like them. I ordered a Matcha Latte, my latest usual. Nice taste and texture and one of the best around! My friend ordered her usual, Lavendar Honey Latte, and enjoyed it. It was nice having our favorite drinks in coffee cups vs to go paper! For food, I ordered my usual the Breafast Croissant with Bacon. IYKYK their croissants are amazing, then add the eggs, cheese, and bacon, it's just the bomb. Although it's my usual, again, getting it served on an actual plate and being able to sit down and enjoy it piping hot, just special! My friend had the French Style Omelet and definitely enjoyed it. Next visit I plan to try their Stuffed Brioche French Toast! Of course next visit will have to be dinner so I can have some pizza!

Drinks: I tried their seasonal Cookie Butter Latte. It was very sweet, so I recommend adjusting the sweetness if possible. I could tell they use a cookie butter flavored syrup rather than a natural cookie butter. The espresso shots tasted good, but it was overpowered by the syrup. My friend ordered the Banana Foam Latte. She also thought her drink was sweet. The banana foam tasted good, but it disappeared within 10 min. Pricing: Prices are more than average, but I'm not surprised considering they're located on a popular street.
