La Esperanza Restaurant & Bakery

I’m a regular at this location it’s my go to spot when I don’t feel like cooking plus it’s around the corner from my house. I called around 8:15ish 3 times and they didn’t answer. We then walked to the restaurant and as soon as we walk in the register girl says “we’re only taking pupusa orders” I said that’s fine… my go to is always the pupusa special my family loves it. She’s ringing up a person ahead of us once it’s our turn the cook behind her tells her no more orders. I asked her what time do they close. She responded 9pm it was 8:25. I mentioned I called previously before coming and no one answered… she said she was taking orders over the phone and that’s why they didn’t answer but couldn’t take my order anymore. If your sign says open till 9pm they should still serve their customers. I was disappointed won’t be going back..

I ordered the Huevos with green and red sauce. The green is very hot. It tastes great. Everything is excellent. The rice and beans have a different taste than Mexican and I like it a lot. Mmmm the fried plantains are so good and Salvadorian tortillas I enjoyed very much. I highly recommend the breakfast that I had.

Had been a few years since I initially went and went there again recently. It’s a good Guatemalan and Salvadoran restaurant. I had the Desayuno Chapin, wasn’t bad asked for sunny side up but they ended up over easy, chorizo wasn’t bad; the platanos fritos con crema, frijoles revueltos with the queso fresco were good. My lil one enjoyed the kids pupusa meal that has 2 of them with apple slices, frijoles and rice. The agua frescas were good had the Jamaica and Tamarindo. Instead of chips was given small tortillas with frijoles as appetizer. Would go again and try their other melas for lunch or dinner, went for a brunch meal this time around. Definitely check this place out and support your local Latin American restaurant!

Price of Dishes Too Expensive. If the prices were comfortable I would recommend this place to my friends.

If you’re craving authentic Salvadoran food, this is the spot. The pupusas are, as the name suggests, absolutely perfect—crispy on the outside, filled with cheesy, savory goodness inside. The classic cheese and pork combo is a must-try, but their bean and cheese variation hits just as hard. Don’t skip the curtido (pickled cabbage) and salsa; they add the perfect tangy balance.

The atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming, making it an ideal spot for a casual meal with friends. Definitely worth a stop if you’re in the mood for comfort food that hits the spot.

I have to say that it's the first time I've ever had Yuka fries and I was not disappointed at all. Everything else I tried was great but the fries took the cake. Definitely returning.
