I want to start with how excited I was to try the Mariachi Bakery!!! The short Tik Toks my wife kept sending to me all week had me super amped up for today's visit!! Last night, I placed my order for pick up at 6:30AM Order consists of the following: Large Cafe de Olla, Churro Crumble Cake, Chorizo con Papas Torta, Ganzito Tres Leches and 4 Conchas 1 of each Easter Color (blue, geen, yellow & purple). I arrived at 6:11 a little early, but the store was fairly empty. One table was occupied with a father, daughter having breakfast, and one couple walking in the same time as me. The couple and I were greeted by 2 different girls. Mine asked me if she could help, and I said I was looking, but i did have an online order I was picking up @ 6:30 she also asked my name and when I told her she said it was ready let me get it. She came with the Cafe de Olla, a box with 3 conchas and my torta in a separate bag. She then began telling me they ran out of the purple conchas and the churro crumble cake. She also said I should take the guava cheese bread in lieu of the crumble cake, and I told her I don't like guava cheese and asked for her to replace the missing concha with one of the other colors and as she was putting in another green this cook or assistant comes out with purple conchas and I said I guess your not out and asking her to replace the green with the purple. I then asked about the crumble cake again on how could you allow me to place an order online and be sold out before 15 minutes after opening, she said just take the guava and I said no thank you... I asked if it's still cooking thenI would wait since that's what i really wanted... She walks back to the kitchen area and says this guy will wait for the crumble cake, and then the kitchen kicks out a square of cake... Now I then say I guess you weren't sold out, and she then put the piece in a cooker.... So once the crumble cake finishes, she plops it in the box with the conchas... I asked her if they were out of the gansito tres leches cake because she never placed that in the bag either, and she gave me a dirty look and grabbed a slice and handed to me like I upset her... Now that I had all of my orders, I left and headed to work where i would try the crumble cake with my Cafe de Olla... Let's just say that the crumble cake almost made crumbles out of my teeth as it was hard as a rock... I gave up on the crumble cake and tried the torta, and it was half soggy and stale for a bakery, i figured the bollio would be yummy but not... My wife did like the Gansito Tres Leche, and kids passed on the conchas... What I learned probably shouldn't order online from a bakery because who knows what they're going to give you... Overall rating: 2 Stars Customer Service: 1 Star Food Quality/Freshness:: 1 Star Store Cleanliness: 5 Store Order Accuracy: 1 Star I kept the Crumble Cake in case anyone didn't believe how hard it was...

Read moreBeautiful new small business that just opened in Downey on the 11th of October! Everything is sooo delicious including their chocolate croissant and their conchas!! They also have plenty of Mexican inspired lattes and frappes, my favorite has to be the churro latte! Such a great environment for studying by yourself or with friends and staff are so friendly! They notice you from the second you walk in till the moment you walk out! Congratulations Mariachi Bakery on your second location! Welcome to Downey. You're such a wonderful addition to this beautiful neighborhood!

Read moreI stumbled on this place. I was going to the bank and parked in front of the place and had to give it a try. I got an Abulitia cold brew and it was chill. However I got the abulitia ice latte and that was way better. They need to add some more water to their cold brew, but that is just me. We also got some food there as well. A cool spin on Empandas. They use a filo crust. So it is very flaky. Services is a little slow so don't think you will be in and out. They staff can be a little more lively not so serious. Maybe that can help with the wait. Their hot baked good are a little pricey, but worth it. Again another however is the conchas are really good. NOT DRY AT ALL and decently priced. Would go back for just them...
