Their lunch meals are great - strongly eecommend a tamale combo. The takeout line can be a bit long but it's worth the wait and service is usually quick.

Giddy Up! | Sep 12, 2018

Masa, or the cornmeal is naturally gluten free but you may want to call and ask if they put wheat flour in their recipie. If they do, which is wierd, you can call and ask for a custom batch without wheat flour.

The service is really horrible and they don't have bread, it's a shame that earning so much they don't make an effort to give a good service

Penny Sheridan | Sep 11, 2020

As a baker, I understand why they run out. It keeps it fresh daily, which is why it's always good, which is why the lines are long and the people keep coming.

There are two sides to La Esperanza 1. The bakery that sells bread and pastry goods. 2. The retail store located on the North West side of the parking lot. The retail side is where you will locate the items you need to make your menudo.
