The owner was very nice and took the time to tell me about the menu and his Colombian background. I came on a quiet weekday, and if no one is at the counter, make sure to ring the bell next to the cash register. I'm looking forward to coming back to try the smoothies and some empanadas. It seems like a small husband-and-wife operation, and everything is made to order. There's also plenty of seating available in the food court.

I round up and give them a 5 although there's a tiny bit I would take off for the booths not being clean although I walked in at Opening. Essentially you order at the front through the machine or the lady at the counter. She was friendly and process quick since it's an express location. You can still sit and eat but you are not served. I would definitely go again for a quick bite. Satisfaction guaranteed.

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.

So glad that I did! Seated quickly, received the soup, bread, and green sauce very quickly. Received the entrees super quick, and the food was impeccable.

So many things change over time. This used to be our go-to place for feasting on Peruvian cuisine…read more My Dad enjoys what we order from here so we decided to order for our Father's Day dinner. Such a letdown. The order was delayed 45 min and no one even felt bad about it. Get our order and the two whole chickens look suspiciously like one chicken. And they gave us the wrong order and when I called, the guy on the phone says it's basically the same thing. Nope. Chicken is not beef. And when I mentioned the major delay (which delayed our dinner) and the wrong item, no apology. I guess years of loving the place, I approached our disappointment with a light touch but maybe that gave them the impression I was okay with their delay, and their oversight of actually messing up our order. The prices have gone up and the quality and portion size has decreased and while I am slow to share reviews where I express my disappointment, it was such a bummer from a long beloved restaurant that I felt the need to update my 8 year old 4 star review.

The toppings were excellent and the rice that comes along with it is exactly how my mom makes rice. So yes, I will be coming back. They do take time to make food cus it is cooked to order so give them time to cook. About an hour. The draw back is you have to ask for a fork. Napkins, etc. Be specific and ask ahead. It's annoying, I know. La comida es igual que la que hace mí mama. Regresare por eso. Pidan utenciales etc. Por adelantado. Es como mendigíar por esas cosas.
