If you come here, you absolutely have to try the fried pork. The chicharrón pupusas revueltas are incredible--the pork is savory, perfectly seasoned, and blends beautifully with the melted cheese and beans. I also tried the standalone fried pork chunks, and they were nice and crispy on the outside while staying tender on the inside. Pair them with the crunchy curtido and salsa, and it is the ultimate comfort meal. Fast service and authentic flavors. Will definitely be back for more! read more

This is a friendly, neighborhood spot serving pupusas and other Salvadoran dishes. They have a variety of flavors, but most of the pupusas are in the $4-$5 range, and all of them come piping hot and ready for epic cheese pulls. I had a few classics: bean and cheese, reveultas (pork and cheese), and spinach and cheese. You really can't go wrong. I plan to make this a frequent stop. read more

Fresh made delicious pupusas! When I'm craving a good pupusa I head to this place. Highly recommend this location. The restaurant is in a small shopping center which provides limited but free parking. The restaurant is clean and a good size with plenty of seating options. read more

HORRIBLE FOOD! I ordered 3 different types of Papoosa's and they all were equally Bland & Tasteless. Even the "salsa" was barely seasoned watered down tomato sauce muck. But the worst of all was the tilapia fish (Mojarra Frita), I guess no one bothered to tell the cook that fish 'should' have some, or ANY seasoning and/or marinade!?!??! Horrible! And to make it worse, my wife's stomach has been ill for 3 days since eating that fish, which I assume must have been old or not properly refrigerated. I had high hopes for this restaurant, but I was HUGELY DISAPPOINTED! My opinion.... AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS!!! read more

As mentioned before. A place i visit every month. I got the usual eggs with spinach. It was amazing. I tried a new plate called Pollo Con Crema. It was served with a side of extra Crema incase you wanted more. It was amazing. I recommend. read more

Best thing about LA is having world cuisine menu.. and I'm Salvi.. so I'm always on the search for some fantastic, Sabroso(tasty) pupusas!! And the pupusas here are Sabrosos(tasty).. I got my pupusas with everything(Con todo) I also enjoyed their Ensalada- is a fruit salad drink.. the name doesn't translate well into English but it's basically a drink made with various fruits native to Central America that usually taste like the best apple juice..Ever!! All of my friends always enjoy their 1st Ensalada.. I got my order to go because my abuela( grandma) didn't want to get out the car.. Alzheimer's SUX!! read more

Es Con Sabor West - Pupusa con todo - Salvadoran Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I ordered Pupusas here for a work luncheon for a team of 9. I placed a pickup order a couple of days in advance. The young woman who answered was very polite & helpful when I called. On the day of my event, I went right up to the cashier and they gave me my order. It was piping hot! I burned my hands, lol. The price was reasonable, and the serving size was significant. Everyone raved about the food! The Salvadorans were very pleased, which was a great sign. I'm glad I chose this restaurant for our lunch. I think I may have found my new pupusa place! read more

este lugar es increible muy deliciisas popusas quede facinado esoero lo viciten pronto lo recomiendo al 100% Felicidades a sus cocineras/os

Delicious comida Salvadoreña with friendly service! The pupusas and the sopa de res were delicious and the service was friendly and prompt. The place was clean as well, including the bathroom. read more

Whenever the craving for pupusas hit I try to make my way here to Es Con Sabor. Today I got the bean and cheese, the revueltas con todo and the chicharron pupusas. When I picked up my to go order, it was HEAVY! In my order they added 2 salsa cups and 2 cups of loroco. I loved that their made to order pupusas were not super oily yet still flavorful. The dough was strong enough to hold all the packed in ingredients yet soft enough to cut through. Their hours are a bit off so don't always go by Yelp business hours. Hopefully you're close enough to stop by and try their delicious food ! read more

I just became a papusa fan! The place I work at always get these on thursday so decided to see why.

I feel real disappointed with my meal today, I was really hoping to like this place because it's close to work. I ordered 1 pupusas revuelta and it was practically all masa. Don't know if the person making them today was new but it was just bad. No flavor and I couldn't finish it. read more

This restaurant was really good. I stuck with classic Salvadoran menu items. Pupusas chunky, you may only need to eat one. The plantains omg could have been on the desert menu, they were fresh, hot with a beautiful sweet glaze and tasted great. The yuca, pretty, fried to yellow/light brown perfection, soft on the inside with a light crunch on the outside. I don't know the name of these beans but at a Salvadoran restaurant on Beverly years ago I had these black beans that were fluffy or whipped (not runny) just fun to eat and damn good. Will ask next time. Lastly The lady at the register was cool. I'm American and I wanted to try a number of items and the way I was ordering would have cost me more money but she picked out certain dishes on the menu that consolidated what I wanted so I didn't have to order a bunch of side items. Mad points to her for having integrity to not easily taking my money and for that this place now has a new customer in me!! read more

Their cuisine is good. But they must stop selling their food in cheap, hazardous containers. read more

Okay so everything looked delicious so we over-ordered... We ordered many pupusas, plantains, and more... And this was our second dinner! :) I can't really say much more except come out and try the food. It'll speak for itself. FYI, the ladies who work the restaurant are super kind. You can tell that people constantly come back since they know so many people who walk through the door. read more

The last time I had a pupusa was around high school when a Salvadoran friend from high school had taken a group of us. That's been probably at least 10 years ago! But I always see the pupuserías sprinkled throughout the Westside and tonight I finally decided to stop by Es Con Sabor West which I see all the time driving down Venice. This place seems like it's mostly a sit down restaurant but I ordered to-go. They have a lot of Salvadoran food that's /not/ pupusas but I ordered two pupusas - queso con loroco, and revueltas con todo. Honestly, thank god for the prior experience I had from my friend recommending queso con loroco because I would not have known what to order otherwise. The loroco pupusa ended up the best, too. That's what I would recommend. From what I understand loroco is a type of plant - I don't know if I can really taste it distinctly, but I *think* it makes the cheese have a little bit of a sour taste. Anyway, the cheese con loroco pupusa hits the spot. The woman that took my order was very nice as well. Really enjoyed coming to this place. read more

Great pupusas plus delicious rice and beans at very fair prices. Not fancy, but pleasant atmosphere with friendly service.

Delicious pupusas! My favorite are queso con loroco 10/10 The size is average good for the price The flavor is delicious too! Give it a try! The only downside is that I went today and they gave me a agua fresca bad. It smelled like dirty wet cloth & the fruit was so old! I paid $6 for old water! So disappointed It's raining in a LA nobody wants to drive back and get wet why couldn't they do it right the first time? read more

Called at 8:02 and 8:05 and no answer only answering machine. Yelp and other website says it closes at 8:30. Weird that they won't even pick up their phone. I'll take my business elsewhere. read more

Pupusas are definitely the highlight here. The yucca dish makes a nice shareable dish to balance out the cheesy-meaty flavors. Highly recommended, our first time trying Salvadorian food! read more

Es Con Sabor West - Pupusas, pastelitos, yucca dish - Salvadoran Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Solid pupusas!! A bit overpriced, but on par with West LA prices. Service was great, super kind people working there.

Food: this is the best place to buy pupusas on the west side PERIODT. They run about $3 a pop and are always fresh, bubbling over with cheese and goodness. My go to is pork and cheese which is fire, beans and cheese are a close second. The curtido is on point too. Atmosphere: while people do dine in here, I view this restaurant as a take out spot. I usually phone in my order of hella pupusas then swing by to pick them up 25 minutes later. They take cards at the front and I'm on my way in 5 minutes. Service: again, I don't dine in but the staff has always been nice during my interactions with them. Summary: fire pupusas, get you some. read more

Great food! Pupusas are always cheesy and delicious! I recommend the pastelitos and ensalada drink! Hits the spot!

Going west, you dont expect for pupusas to taste the same as it is in the heart of the latino community, but coming from a Salvi (yes me), this is my spot to go! Ill drive the extra 20 minutes, pay just a little extra, but trust me, they wont have you waiting for long and the pupusas are Their spot is clean and staff is friendly. read more

Great pupusas! The service was also amazing! Wonderful ambiance. Will definitely be coming back!

As a Salvadorean I can honestly say that this sets the bar. Making the climb over the valley is worth every platano. Pupusas are a must, hearty and not too greasy. A pollo tamale is also a great entree choice. End it with platanos con creama. Buen provecho! read more

Great service by the staff. The ambiance is humble and relaxing. Food, pupusas are great.

It's easy to find good pupusas. It's hard to find great ones. Es Con Sabor just made that search for greatness much easier for Yelpers. We ordered a litany of pupusas to go (10), and even after the 15 minute drive home, they were piping hot. Each order of two came with a generous portion of curtido (it had the perfect flavor to complement the richness of the pupusas), as well as a generous portion of tangy tomato sauce. We piled on the curtido, doused them in the tomato sauce, and took bite after bite of melting hot pupusa. Normally 2 pupusas is more than enough for me. Today I had 3. Now I have some close friends that are Salvadoran, and I know they typically stick to the Revuletas and Queso varieties - but Es Con Sabor knows its' demographics. Located in Palms near Culver City and West LA, they offer a huge selection of pupusas with veggies & cheese - Loroco, Calabaza, Zanahorria, Espinaca - and they do them extremely well. So if you're one of those special diet types, or you just prefer the veggies (like me) this is your spot. Overall, this place will get you fluffy, melty, fresh, home-made style pupusas with all the standard fillings as well as a selection of veggie fillings that will more than suffice your craving. Their accoutrements are just as quality as their main dishes. My only advice is to order one more than you think you need. read more

Are these the best handmade to order pupusas in the entire Metropolis of Angels? There are some noteworthy places I frequent with amazing pupusas. These are definitely among the best. Long Beach might have better slaw and salsa. But as for the pupusas alone? We might need some blind taste testing. Let's get on that! read more

Es Con Sabor West - Just sat down with the menu... - Salvadoran Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I love pupusas so much. More than I love most people. So when the craving hits, I have to abide. Been getting takeout from this place since before I lived on this side of town, and I've never been disappointed. Yes, it's true that I haven't investigated the menu thoroughly, but guess what? I don't care. I'm reviewing what I know, and what I know are the pupusas. I tend to stick with bean and cheese, with extra curtido thank you very much, and an order of plátanos con frijoles y crema. I have never been disappointed when ordering from here, either for dine-in or takeout. Prices have gone up considerably since they first opened, but on the west side, that makes sense, and who says food like this "needs" to be cheap anyway? Not I, sir. Service is always polite, food comes out quickly and is delicious--what more do you need? Support this place if you're in the Culver City area and craving Salvi food. read more

Can't go wrong here! If you're craving good Ep Salvadoran food this is a great place to go to on the Westside. I've been here often - especially when I feel sick bc the chicken soup is the truth. I also love the Ensalada drink - I feel like I may have been a fruit bat in a former life and the Ensalada drink really does satisfy my fruit cravings. The Pupusas are also very very good! My boyfriend ordered chicharon last time we came and he loved it! The service is always friendly, warm and efficient. The establishment itself is very mom and pop. Just your neighborhood El Salvadoran restaurant which you can hop into any day looking any kinda way - except stinky. Don't come stinky and take people's appetite away. Parking can be a pain bc it's in a small strip mall and shared by several other businesses. read more

I must say that those place is real good. Top 3 PUPUSAS. I'm going back again really soon

I go here for my pupusa cravings and leave satisfied every time. I try to sneak in side of plantains, rice/beans, yucca. There is usually enough to save for a snack later on:) It's quite filling! The curtido and salsa with the pupusas are tasty too. They make everything fresh and the food is always hot and delicious. They even have the orange Cola Champagne to complete the Salvadoran meal :) read more

The food here is not acceptable , the consideration they have for their customers is next to nothing I ordered from this place and they took a long time just to send me an old fish. That was so stale and stiff that there was no way to actually eat. I would not want anyone to waste their money at a place where they care so little for their customers satisfaction. Do yourself a favor and save your money! read more

What can I say? Best pupusas in town! And I've had my share! I highly recommend the bean and cheese (to start with)- game changer! I look forward to trying all the great looking options on the menu. The decor is welcoming and the staff is always smiling and friendly. Wish they were open 7 days a week, however post pandemic staffing issues have effected a lot of places. Parking is easy and in LA...that goes a long way! read more

Mmmm this place is yummy and so close to home. If I don't feel like driving to the Salvadoran Corridor on a Saturday for some street pupusas I come here. The filling is so tasty! I always get the revueltas (cheese,bean,pork and loroco). It's so tasty! A little on the salty side which I like. Their sopa de pata is really good too! Also if you're sick they've got this grilled chicken soup full of veggies! So tasty. Can't forget the refreshing Ensalada drink either, I'm sure it'll give me diabetes one day hahahahahaha anyways check them out. Great service, great pupusas! read more

Recently came here after a patient of mine recommended them for great pupusas. It is a tiny hole in the wall restaurant, but cute and cozy. The waitstaff is friendly and we were seated right away. I ordered a few revuelta pupusas and some platanos, the basics, just to test them out. After all, when you've been eating grandma's homemade pupusas your whole life, your standards are definitely high. The food came out in about 10 minutes, and everything was piping hot. The pupusas were decently sized and bubbling with cheese. I cut into them and they were just stuffed with filling. So good! I topped off my meal with the platanos which were also quite tasty. Although they aren't grandma's homemade pupusas, they came awfully close! I will definitely be frequenting this little spot in the future! read more
