El Espino Restaurant — Restaurant in Baldwin Park

I’ve been coming here for a while but the last couple of times I came they got the order wrong and I didn’t say anything because I really don’t like to make an issue with that but I told her on the phone order because in person they keep getting the order wrong. I told her I wanted it all three things. Then she started suggesting other stuff and I’m like that’s not what I was asking for so my pupusa turned out wrong again and because it wasn’t what I ordered they still wanted to keep the money and just tell me to take it and I’m like yeah I’m not gonna probably come back to this one. They’re nice but she wanted me to pay extra and it’s like I just got through telling them there’s multiple times where I not only paid for Meet and they didn’t put it in there, but I tipped her. This time she was looking at me real close when I did the tip and I didn’t put it because I was going to go check my pupusa first And they were still wrong. I always tip but you know I don’t wanna be ripped off. I always want beans, cheese and meat and as long as I’ve came, they don’t remember so this time they left the beans out. The ladies nice but I think if you focus on getting the order right, it’s better on your tips. That’s the only reason I rated the way I did. I almost wanna call consumer affairs because the stealing with somebody asked for something else and you charge them and it doesn’t even state on the receipt what you’re charging them for then you end up tricking them and I was trying to figure out. Did they run out of beans why do they not like to put everything all at once if they’re cutting back Just tell...

Rudest cashier experience at this restaurant. The pupusas are good but the waitress gives so much attitude to customers. When I called to ask about the prices I was given the price of $1.85 then when I arrived I was being charged $3.25. The cashier explained that two types of pupusas I ordered were never on sale and were regularly $3. I then asked why she didn’t give me all the prices as I wasn’t only charged $3 I was charged $3.25. This is why customers ask for prices when ordering through the phone just to be given a false advertising. I never asked for any sale through the phone I only asked how much each pupusas was to estimate how much I could afford. Never coming back again. Be polite to...

Love their food. Normally, I place my order several hours ahead. I always let the person taking the order that I need them 1/2 hour to an hour before I pick up so that my order will be ready. Otherwise, it can take a while. Love the food, very good flavor, not greasy. You don't have to drive to LA for good food. The restaurant offers pupusas at a discount on Wednesday and Thursday. I always place a big order and freeze the rest. The food keeps up. Highly recommend it. Never dined at the restaurant, I enjoy the comfort of my home. Enjoy the food while watching a movie. Pupusas, tamales, yuca con chicharron, empanadas, atol de elote and fried...
