    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!

    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.

    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.

    Mini Conchas
    Elizabeth A.

    I tried the conchas and champurrado and I must say that the conchas are so soft and the champurrado was not overwhelmingly sweet as others. I will definitely be coming back to try the agua frescas and the pupusas.

    Marius Bakery never disappoints with service and good flavor. Been here several times. But today, I didn't want to miss Pupusas Tuesdays. Love their pupsas and overall food and baked goods. Andrea and her staff make the restaurant a quite welcoming experience!!! Come check it out!!! You'll love it too!!! ------- La Panadería Marius nunca decepciona con su servicio y su buen sabor. He estado aquí varias veces. Pero hoy no quería perderme los Martes de Pupusas. Me encantan sus pupsas y, en general, la comida y los productos horneados. ¡Andrea y su personal hacen del restaurante una experiencia muy acogedora! ¡Ven a visitarlo! ¡A ti también te encantará!

    A very amazing place for pan dulces and pupusas if you're ever on the East side of Long Beach

Also, after reading the clap backs from the owner on IG/Yelp reviews towards other patrons, it has turned me off and made me more hesitant to support her business.

There are also three tables outside that seat four, four, and two for a maximum of ten. The place fills up fast, but empties just as quick. And their baked goods go quick, so grab them while you can! I ordered the Cuban Empanada as an appetizer. The savory rice and bean filling was a perfect compliment to the sweet ripe plantain filling and hint of sweetness in the dough. They are baked and the dough is thick and chewy, so if you're not a fan of that type of Empanada, be warned... I ordered the Cuban Sandwich as the main course. It was DELICIOUS and I would recommend it to everyone! If you're a purist, like a few of my friends and family though, be warned. Their take on the Cuban is made with Ciabatta not Cuban Bread, Mozzarella not Swiss, and is toasted not pressed... I ordered a Vanilla & Dulce De Leche Cookie for Dessert. It was AMAZING! Soft chewy on the inside, a little crunch on the outside. The taste of a sugar cookie with little sugar bombs of Dulce De Leche throughout. Perfect. And I washed it all down with a Tres Leches Latte (Hot). It was DIVINE! Very much on the sweet side, which I absolutely enjoyed to the last drop. But, if you do not like it too sweet, you can ask them to lower the sweetness level. Also, they will give you an option of dairy milk (2%), almond milk, or oat milk when you order.

It was our first time here, so we wanted to try all the flavors! We got the beef, chicken, BBQ pork, Cuban, chicken curry, veggie, and ropa vieja empanadas. I LOVE the crispy exterior of the empanadas, although interestingly, the first bites always tasted slightly salty. The fillings all had decent flavor, but none of them were outstanding or impressed me enough to want more. I will say, the green salsa they included with the order SIGNIFICANTLY improved the taste and experience of the empanadas. By itself, I'd rate the empanadas 3/5, but with the salsa, it definitely goes up to at least 4/5. But I dislike that the empanadas can't hold their own without the addition of the salsa. The shop is located in a plaza with a decent amount of parking. I think there were a few tables outside to enjoy the food, but not much seating otherwise. The girl at the counter seemed sweet and helpful and immediately greeted us when we came into the store. While the empanadas here aren't for me, it does seem like many people like them!
