Salteñas taste amazing, I have been grabbing empanadas as taste tests when visiting my family in the OC and tried these today! Very delicious along with the cheese empanadas highly recommend!

Bolivian Salteñas are bomb!!!! Those are the ones look like empanadas I love the beef ones better. When we come from NorCal we always gotta stop on the way back

I really enjoyed eating their salteñas(Bolivian meat pies). It’s like an empanada but with a juicy stew inside that has meat, potatoes, peas, boiled egg..). The dough that the empanada is made of is my favorite, a bit sweet. Doesn’t perfectly match the flavors from the salteñas from Bolivia where I am from, but they are still very tasty . Their “llajua” (Bolivian hot sauce) is tasty, needed to be a bit spicer for my taste.
In the past I have also bought frozen salteñas from them to take them to northern california and my family really enjoyed them. Just place you order ahead of time and buy dry ice.
They also have api(purple corn hot drink) and cheese empanadas on the weekends, which i really enjoyed eating as well as Mexican pastries or pan dulce.
Tip: eat salteñas while they are hot

This is during the pandemic, so they don’t sell their other typical Bolivian food. For those who know what “Api” is, it is only sold on Sunday’s, did not get to try it-bummer. Now the salteña was really good, the whole point of stopping here. I have not had one since over 15yrs. The dough is just right, a little sweet with the filling done right and savory. I do think it was overpriced at $3.50 each one. But I guess for being here in LA and not near anywhere else, they gotta make that money , definitely worth it instead of probably waiting another 15yrs . Try it!

If you’ve never tried Bolivian food then this is the place for you. On any given day you can have the salteñas which are similar to empanadas but way way way way better. On the weekends you can try traditional Bolivian dishes. Service is very friendly and the prices are reasonable. I recommend it if you happen to be in the area and if you aren’t, I recommend trying Bolivian food.

The deli is nice and clean always. The Bolivian Salteñas are as authentic as being in La Paz or El Alto!

Visited this place during weekdays. Did not have the chance to try other dishes since plates were available only during weekends. The 3 star rating is for the Salteñas I ordered which were not hot, it less than warm…. more towards cold side. Guess, I’ll stick to my other favorite Bolivian restaurant Bebas instead.

They have gone downhill since the owner passed alway. Women at the front never greet you and their bread is always stale. Oh and not to mention it always tastes days old and stale.

I came here for one thing and one thing only, Salteña! They are always warm and fresh. There are bite size beef cubes, a slice of egg, and veggies in the Salteña. I love the crust. If you want more than 8 at once, it’s better to call ahead. Also, empanadas are weekends only! Oh, and cash only!
