Found randomly and great the food was great the place the service was great. The parking was pretty easy.

We heard another couple tell us about this restaurant claiming that they made great pupusas... I think my husband and I can come off as good snobs because we initially scoffed in disbelief that there were delicious pupusas in our neighborhood that we had yet to try. And boy... were we wrong. I'd compare these to my preferred spot in LA that only accepts cash. Warning, their pupusas are large! At least close to the size of an 8.5 inch Dixie plate. First time, we ordered 2 each but could only finish one per meal. Their cheese was on point too. Oh, and their fried platanos with frijoles and crema... I could eat those all day. Their beans have the perfect flavor... We've ordered twice to go by phone and both times, the food was delicious. The lady that answered the phone didn't speak English so I had to practice my rusty old high school Spanish. So worth it! read more

The pupusas were so so delicious! Beautifully sized and stuffed these pupusas were not greasy like other places I've tried. The place had music in yhe background which was very nice. The service was so great as well was welcomed right away. And got to meet the daughter of the owner. Very thankful for her service. Delicious, tasty, amazing read more

Food is delicious. We love the beans. We always order for pick up. Food is always ready on time.

Doesn't look like much from the outside but the food is sooooo good. The pupusas are the best I've tried at a restaurant and I've been to quite a few in Los Angeles. My husband got the carne asada & chorizo plate and he said it was delicious. We've also tried their breakfast and it was so good. The platanos with beans and sour cream were delicious. read more

Loroco Bistro - Carne asada y chorizo plate - Salvadoran Near Me - Whittier, California

The service here was amazing and the food tasted amazing! However, when I got here it felt insanely hot and it was really getting to me. I wish they could invest in some air conditioning of some kind. read more

Good pupusas! I'm Salvi but I don't like to eat pupusas as often as my mom, so when I do have a pupusa it better be good to satisfy my craving. My mom and I both approve and my bf who isn't Salvi also loved them. I like having my spots where I know I'll be happy when I order from there. Some may say it's pricey but everything went up in price after covid hit. I came here during the pandemic in 2020 and prices were a little less but at the end of the day I'll pay for what I like. Both times I called it in and picked it up but they do have plenty of seating and they also sell beer which Is nice. I ordered the shrimp and cheese pupusa and the pork, cheese, and bean (revuelta) both were good they're big. We also ordered a plate of platanos (fried plantain) which we all loved, they were ripe and perfectly cooked! Usually I don't see shrimp pupusas other places I have been to, I'm glad they had the option here I enjoyed it, they also have a good selection of veggie ones too. I personally liked this place better than a pupusa food truck I recently tried in Whittier. Glad they opened up I will be returning to try the cheese and serrano pupusa! read more

Favorite Salvadoran Restaurant ! I have literally tried everything on the menu and I have never been disappointed! Food is delicious and always taste fresh ! The costumer service is a big plus ! Everyone is nice and make you feel welcomed! read more

The ambiance and food is amazing! They have the most authentic food in town! Me and my family are willing to drive over an hour. The service is great and the bilingual waitress her name is ASHLEY was very attentive and helpful. She thoroughly went over the menu and even let me and my family try out the drinks to ensure we would fully be happy with our choice 10/10 for the food 10/10 for the service. We can't wait to come back. read more

I love this place , best Salvadorian food I've ever tasted but the female waitress was rude and left us waiting when she only had 3 other tables. We left because she didn't even offer us drinks. Very disappointed read more

I would like to start by saying the Service was amazing!! Friendly, polite, hospitable and made you feel at home. Now let's the talk about the food. I had the steak with chorizo. The flavor was outstanding, full range of seasoning and to be fair it was a large portion. The pupusa, where's also savoring! read more

Las mejores pupusas que he probado, en general la comida esta bien y rica!!! El servicio no es tan bueno ahora las meseras no son tan amables y el ambiente esta normal es familiar read more

La sopa de pata que ordené estaba muy ácida, demanciado y no pude comerla. Tiene alguien que checar que la comida esté bien hecha. $25 por la sopa es un robo. No la pude tomar, y eso que traté. La panza estaba tan recocinada que se despedazaba. No volveré a este lugar. Aunque la mesera fue muy amable no fue una buena experiencia read more

Very authentic Salvadorian flavor. Drinks are expensive. Next time I will do take out. Pupusas taste was right on and they're big.

Excelente comida,servicio. Lugar amplio y limpio. Buenos precios. Gracias. Es un verdadero placer comer en este restaurante. read more

me encantaron las pupusas aquí! no están muy grandes pero el sabor y la calidad de queso es excelente! no es el lugar mas barato pero la comida y las carnes valen la pena las porciones están bien para compartir también. se los recomiendo la ensalada de frutas está riquísimo read more

This place was great! So glad I came here for dinner tonight (for takeout of course). The food portions were amazing for the price point. When I picked up my to-go order, I immediately thought, "oh wow, that's heavy." Food tasted awesome too and fresh ingredients! Definitely coming back! read more

Oh my YUM!! I was pleasantly surprised. We telephone ordered for pick up. Couldn't believe how big the Pupusas were! They were generously stuffed. I'm of Salvadorian descent and everything we had surpassed my expectations. Pupusas: Queso con Loroco, Frijol y queso, Serrano Chile, all delicious! The salsa was tasty. My only complaint is that there was not enough curtido. I'm used to Salvadorian restaurants usually being generous on their curtido however, we had 2 whole Pupusas left over and no curtido left. To me, the curtido is a MUST! It makes the Pupusa. Plátanos Fritos con frijoles y crema: So good and they were generous on the serving size which is a big plus for our family Looking forward to trying more of their typical Salvadorian dishes and drinks. I can only imagine how good they are. read more

Loroco Bistro - Pupusa de Queso con Loroco - Salvadoran Near Me - Whittier, California

Service was horrible. Just to give us water they took about 25 minutes. Waitress had attitude

Love everything that we've ordered so far The horchata and fresco de ensalada are so tasty. The typical breakfast hits the spot and always a fav of mine, and the pupusa ahogada is not traditional but so good with the fried egg on top of a pupusa of your choosing, plátanos fritos, beans, crema, cheese and avocado. So so good! Great portions and great customer service. Will definitely continue to come here for a long time! read more

Went on dec.31 to eat here . Place is very presentable and clean.Was disappointed with the service .My food was cold when the waitress brought it out . Looks like she wasn't all there . They definitely need more staff to keep customers happy. With the spike in prices they should definitely work on customer service. read more

This place is AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS. Whittier has very few good food joints. But, this one is FIRE. Pupusas de queso con serrano. Ufff delicious.... they also give you two types of salsas green and red. Green BOMBBBBB. Their aguas frescas... DANKKKK too.. I will definitely come back for more goodies. read more

This place opened up recently and as a Salvadoreño, I was very excited. Location: It is a very open and clean restaurant. A lot of natural lighting so you can nab a good picture to show your friends/family of the good food you're about to eat. Bathrooms are very well kept and modern. They also have a small bar that I'm sure will be poppin' once this COVID stuff blows over. Food: The food so far has been very great! Very authentic taste. It is prepared quickly without skimping on flavor. I'm anxious to try everything else on the menu. The horchata Salvadoreña is dope too! The flavor here reminds so much of El Salvador. Service: The Service here has been phenomenal. Every time I step inside I am immediately greeted by the whole staff. (Reminds me of the typical movies where everyone yells out your name.) The waitress makes sure to check up on you and your meal to ensure your needs are catered. Definitely a good sign. I hope this restaurant gets the recognition it deserves and thrives within Whittier. They are exemplifying El Salvador's culture perfectly and I am proud of that. I will be coming here frequently apoyando mi cultura y mi gente! read more

I feel upset writing a bad review of the restaurant I can say I love the food pupusas are great and I usually come once a week with my family and every time I come there's always something with one of the waitresses I believe her name is JENNY, there are times when we walk in, and see that she's the one serving we already know she's in a mad mood and this every time we go I just wished at that moment that there would be another waitress but unfortunately, she was the only one serving We try to make the best of it and be polite as much as we can And enjoy the food But the vibe and energy suck because we can't enjoy the food and ask for simple stuff because she would come and serve with a mad face or bad attitude Besides that, I can say the breakfast plates are good read more

I have been coming to this place for years and I can honestly say it has declined. Pupusas are so much smaller. There is hardly any meat in the Pupusas. The "manager" walked around like she owns the place giving attitude and talking bad to customers. New policies have been placed with no warning to customers. Everything is over priced now for less food. Would give it 0 starts if it was possible. read more

I'm sad to write this review, food is great last week I ordered pupusas and other food items. I picked up the food when I got home the forgot to give the garnish and salsa for the pupusas , that's what gives it the flavor . I called to let them know I saw the owners daughter in the restaurant , she didn't want to answer the phone . They don't want to take responsibility for making a mistake.. sad read more

I was around the area and checked the place out. 10/10 the service was great and the waitress was very friendly and took her time explaining ,the food was delicious and very well plated and came out quickly, I definitely recommend this place and I will be back read more

Great food! Hands down one of the best if not the best comida Salvadoreña out here. Recommend it read more

Food is great customer service is ok the lady looks like she is mad all the time I went there to grab some pupusas I order a drink to go I asked if she could give me the Mexican Coke when my order was done she said no. Coke wasn't that cold but o well I wants going to make a big deal about it read more

Ok first off the pupusas here are HUGE! They are literally the size of the Togo box so really eating one is totally enough! I thought the Serrano Chile con queso pupusa was the best out of the pupusas I ordered... it has a good kick! I also ordered the chicharron con queso which we felt was lacking... it didn't have much meat and was mostly cheese... we also had the steak with chimmichurri sauce and that was sooooo good! And we ordered some platanos which are hard to mess up, in my opinion... the cabbage we felt was also lacking... could have more zing to it... and the salsa was ok too... but really love the skirt steak and chimmichurri... read more

Do not open to the corresponding time. I came with my family at 10 am thinking they would be open. I tried calling as well and they did not respond. read more

We come here at least 2 or 3 times a month. Best pupusas ever!! But all their food is good, and their portions are pretty big. You will not be disappointed. read more

The service is very slow. We only ordered an appetizer and pupusa. The pupusa was very cheesy and good. Not sure if the other flavors are good as well. They are quite pricey depending which flavor you order. read more

I've been getting take out from them a few months and the last time i ordered out I put well done on the asada and it was burnt and flavorless, and now the staff seems just rude, not returning . Sad situation for the business that has potential. read more

Food is . Pretty Busy Restaurant. Friendly Staff. Will definitely come back. Highly recommend ‍‍‍

BEST PUPUSAS locally near us, In Whittier /La Mirada area. HUGE in size! My husband is El Salvadorian, he loves his Pupusas. But he is picky..We usually drive to L A (on Lorena, Which closed permanently) Second choice in Pico Rivera. But they started forgetting stuff in our orders, so forget that drive. I wanted to surprise him for after work Lunch so I searched Yelp & thank you lord I found this place. The neighborhood isn't that great & I am familiar with this side of town so I hesitated but decided to take a chance. This place is clean & practicing Safe Social distancing which I am great full for. We walked in , waited for the hostess to call us to her protected counter. Not sure if she spoke English, my husband ordered in Spanish. My husband started ordering whatever he seen. Lol. 2 Spinach ( the best I have ever had, Not greasy & you can see the good amount of spinach) , 2 Squash ( Perfection with cheese melted rite) , 2 Bean & Cheese ( tasted like Homemade beans) & 2 Revueltas ( Flavored Ground Chicharron meat mixed with beans & cheese) Pupusas at $3.50 EACH ( I thought was a little high/ But THEY ARE HUGE)!!!! So WORTH it!! We really enjoyed that the cheese was cooked to perfection, NOT greasy or over cooked... The cheese was white in everyone we ate. We also ordered a Refrescos Ensalada ( Fresh fruit water drink) with Floating fruit. It was delicious! $5.99 Large. Also for Dessert platano Empanadas (Banana fried with Creme inside) Delicious, But a little greasy. As for the PUPUSAS....My hubby only ate 2.... Normally he eats 5, So you can understand how big these are. My little one kept coming back to try all of them so in her book She loved them as well. Our TOTAL COST was Approximately $45.00 But very worth it. It was a bit of a wait for this order but no bad, approximately 20-25 minutes, we were asked to wait outside. So maybe now we know we love them we can call in the order I'm the future. We will be returning soon. There is a U shaped parking lot that goes around the back to the front on both sides for lots of parking. Great hidden place. read more
