Maria Paz Pastry and Cafe

I have ordered the famous cheese cake several times for all of our family occasions. The best cake for both taste and money. Delivery is fast and efficient too!

I tried their cheesecake and it was absolutely delightful! What really stood out is how perfectly balanced the flavors are — it’s not overly sweet like many cheesecakes tend to be. Instead, the mild sweetness is beautifully complemented by the natural saltiness of the cheese, creating a rich, smooth, and satisfying taste in every bite. The texture was creamy and light, making it easy to enjoy without feeling too heavy. For the quality you get, the price is very affordable, which makes this an item you definitely shouldn’t miss. Overall, a must-try dessert for anyone who loves well-balanced flavors and great value. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Tried their cheese cake. Delicious not soo sugary. Very affordable price for everyone.

I first tried the cheesecake at Maria Paz in 2023, and it instantly became a favorite with its rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced sweet-and-salty flavor. With the recent Instagram buzz, I tried it again, and it’s just as delicious and consistent. Generous enough to share with 3–4 people, it’s affordable, tasty, and worth every bite.

Secretly hidden, in a small pastry shop, in downtown Abu Dhabi, lives Maria Paz. This is my new favorite cake… …and that’s coming from someone who isn’t a fan of sweets! The cake looks simple and clean. But once you have a taste… you’re in for a big surprise! Creamy exterior and very soft breading covered in a shredded cheese. The filling between layers had me fooled. One taste of the cake had me stop guessing and enjoy the blissful, tasty moment. There are no tables or chairs. The pastry shop has a small entry space. Take your order with the bakers. It’s a humble and warm shop. They are busy. Catch their attention and take your order quickly. Panic ordering from new comers happens often but collect your thoughts and run with it. You can’t beat their price, especially for the huge cheese cakes! Looking forward to Maria Paz cakes being accessible world wide!

My wife is from the Philippines and was craving home style cheese cake. I’m British and had never had this before, but have tried many Filipino desserts. I got the kutsinta and cheese cake, kutsinta for me and cheese cake for the wife. Both were excellent but the cheese cake really surprised me. So buttery and indulgent and I’m definitely be getting this again!

Best cheesecake in UAE for the price and quality. Humble Initiative by Philipino Pastery chef Maria Paz. We tried from Abudhabi they have outlets in Dubai and Sharjah if I am not wrong Must try their cheesecake tube which is below 15 AED , worth the penny
