Churriño Gourmet Dessert — Restaurant in Long Beach

Who doesn’t love a delicious churro with tons of toppings.

Located in Long Beach, I would say this plaza is very empty and not much going on. When I arrived I thought it was pretty much an abandoned plaza other then the traffic from the local gym but anywho… it has tons of parking available which is always a plus.

This place was so cute and very modern. They had great little photo sections and everything was cleaned/organized.

The churros were made fresh to order and and they had a great selection on filling / toppings. I placed two orders and they both came in cute packaging. I feel like you can’t go wrong with churros rolled in cinnamon. My favorite was the chocolate filling, it was so thick and flavorful. My least favorite was the Jam filling, kinda tasted like watery jam that you put on a sandwich. All the toppings were fresh and again had a good selection.

The service was ok. First, I’ll start with as i walked in and looked around it seemed like the employee had a friend there hanging around and then all of a sudden it seemed as they didn’t know each other… from my perspective it looked like she was giving her FREE Churriños (but that’s none of my business) LoL Second, The employee had some big purple marks on her neck that were just catching my eyes and they weren’t bruises, if you know what I mean. LoL (but that’s none of my business) Third, The only employee there was not very friendly or welcoming, she just stood around on her phone waiting for me to place an order. She never really welcomed me, nor explained how the menu works, I noticed there was a loyalty program but she never cared to mention it or explain how that works.

This was my 1st time visiting this location and I won’t say it will be my last because the churros were good LoL but with the service I definitely won’t be going out of my way to come back...

UPDATE (8/2/2020): Imagine a new batch of bite-size churros. They’re crunchy and sweet. Now fill it up with condensed milk 🥛 Top it off with fresh fruits 🍓 And dip all of that in ice cold soft serve 🍦 take all that senses in and you’ll soon forget the 🥵 in your area 🥵⁣ •⁣ 📍Check out Churriño Gourmet at the Promenade in Long Beach for Brazilian churros & gourmet desserts. You can order online and pay in-store. They even have 🥳 happy hours from 3pm-5:30pm. Come out to try their churro-inspired menu 🤩😎⁣ • ORIGINAL: Recently opened at Long Beach promenade, this gourmet dessert shoppe offers a unique unique play on churros. They infused them with chocolate, strawberry jam or other delicious fillings. Then the churros were topped with all kinds of toppings. My favorites were rainbow cereals and of course, gold flakes. FANCY right? To make it even more indulgent, you'd dip the churros in smooth and velvety gelato. Ok that's how we do churros justice!! • The place offers other plays on churros too. And hot coffee drinks to welcome in the holidays. Make sure you come by Churriño and enjoy their unique...

11-21-23 2nd review. $20 for a churro cut in three and a small cup of gelato. The service is almost always mediocre and they are always out of churros. Very overpriced for what you get. I wish someone would take this awesome idea and make it better. It does taste good but there are just too many places in Long Beach that offer better desserts and service. I love the churro. Delicious but a bit disappointed with the service. I asked for ice cream but they only had one flavor. I think matcha or something and I just wanted simply vanilla with a regular churro. There was NO one in there and the water container was unfilled and you had to turn to use. I mean I love the idea and location but unfortunately it feels slightly like one of those cover ups for a smuggling operation.😳🤷🏽‍♀️ Lol still getting a churro...
