Guatemalan restaurant
La Esperanza Restaurant brings a taste of Guatemala to Oakland's El Valle Carniceria y Fruteria. This casual spot offers a cozy atmosphere for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, featuring beloved comfort foods like carnitas. While diners appreciate the flavorful offerings and quick service, some have raised eyebrows at the pricing, with unexpected charges on the menu. Fortunately, the wheelchair-accessible setting is family-friendly, making it a suitable choice for solo diners or those with kids. Bring your appetite and maybe double-check those prices!

September 17, 2024La Esperanza Restaurant is a hidden gem for anyone craving authentic Guatemalan cuisine! Located inside El Valle Carniceria y Fruteria, it offers a casual atmosphere perfect for solo dining or family meals.
I tried the carnitas - so flavorful and tender! 😋 However, the prices are a bit steep; I paid $49 for just two orders and two sodas. The absence of posted prices was a little surprising.
Despite the cost, the comfort food and quick service make it worth trying, but I'd recommend keeping an eye on the bill! Will I return? Maybe for a special treat... 🍽️
