There is about a 50/50 chance of my order being correct but it has gotten alot better if I clearly write in the instructions what I am asking for. This is a great lunch option because the portions are HUGE so I can roll it over into another lunch meal. What bothers me is that easily half the time I get only curtido and no salsa, or only salsa and no curtido, and I've also had neither of the curtido or salsa in my order. I feel like these ingredients/sides are important since the pupusas would be dry otherwise. Like today, I only got the curtido and no salsa and what I wrote out for my order was not what I asked for. Delicious regardless but there has to be more attention to detail. When it's right, it's amazing; when it's wrong, it's a bummer.

Ufff what can I say it's a 50/50 chance of good food or bad food here !

First & foremost I love Salvadorian breakfast I usually get the huevos revueltos or huevos rancheros plate ... love love the rancheros eggs always come out so good ... my dilemma for getting a bad plate is their platanos.. OMG there are times I don't know who's cooking but they've thrown a whole platano in my plate so cutting the platano , just straight sautéed the outside but guess what inside is raw ! Your supposed to cut a platano usually into 4 ... this has happened to me on 3 occasions . Anyways service is regular , sometimes you'll get the nice happy guy & sometimes you'll get the girl who's a bit standoffish .. just small attitude nothing big . They have a big dining area , and are in a plaza with other businesses but parking is plenty!

When I was lost and confused since a lot of tags were missing and I didnt recognize all the pastries they helped us identify a bunch of them. Lol, I realized later their website also lists a lot of them. The slice of cheese cake was delicious, great texture and flavor. I also love the mexican biscuits, Bought one to make breakfast sandwiches. It's savory and delicious (also huge). We got mexican tamales but next time I must get the guatemalan ones! Definitely Will be going back for more. Highly recommend La Esperanza.

My go-to spot for conchas in the Torrance area…read more Tucked inside a small strip mall, La Esperanza is one of those hidden gems that's easy to miss but absolutely worth finding. Their conchas are always fresh and consistently well made. I love how balanced the flavor is--not too sweet, with just the right hint of cinnamon that never overpowers the bread. Soft, fluffy, and perfect with a cup of coffee. The parking lot can be a little sketchy , but don't let that stop you. If you're in the South Bay, this place is definitely worth checking out.

The food was delicious; fresh, comforting, and with that homemade sabor you can't fake. We tried a bevy of pupusas: revueltas, frijoles con queso, and queso con calabacita. The masa was perfectly cooked--crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy inside--and each filling was generous and satisfying. The curtido and salsa were good, though me hubiera gustado un poquito más de sabor y picante to really make them pop. Overall, an excelente spot for some bomb Salvadoran food. If you're craving pupusas, este lugar no falla.

She literally immediately passed out after that third bite. She spilled the soup all over the floor. Rice and vegetables everywhere. We called 911 bc we were so scared.
