La Rancherita Bakery

My friend is Bolivian and he catered these saltenas for his birthday and EVERYONE loved them. I ended up finally coming here a year later to buy the beef saltenas myself and they were just as amazing as I remembered. They're like Bolivian empanadas. They're super flavorful and juicy, and one is big enough to satisfy my hunger (but it's tempting to eat another one!) I will say that I couldn't find a menu so I'm not sure how consistent their prices are or if they change it up when they like. They're also cash only. I came in thinking they'd be like $3 each but they ended up being $4.75 each - luckily I had enough cash on me.

These are a blast from the past... they taste like my childhood. One bite of these describes a million memories. Served by a good man from La Paz ! That's where my grandpas from and the service was excellent! The vibe was cool, I felt very honored to be here. Being a 2nd generation I love to see business with bolvians running it. Long live Bolivia ! Yelp rating 100/100 on the saltenas

I married into a Bolivian family, and we come here for one thing and one thing only, saltenas. I had never heard of a saltena before. Once I had my first one I was hooked. We used to split getting our saltena fix from Beba's and her, but the past two years we strictly have come to the La Rancherita.These are always delicious, hot and never disappoint. The outside of the saltena is a sweet, pastry type bread that is knotted and crunchy on top, soft on the sides. The center has the meat mixture that ties it all together. Only drawback is that over the past few years they have gotten smaller and gotten more expensive. Last weekend here they were $4.50 each. Inflation and shrinkflation hit at the same time. Cash only, so make sure you have some before you arrive. If you have the chance, call the order in so its ready for you. Since we come from out of town, we always call in so they can either be piping hot or sometimes we order them frozen for us to make at home. Also, the parking lot is super tight. I like to just drop someone off to pick up.

Quality empanadas, great staff, be sure to order ahead for large orders and don't forget cash.

Saltenas were delicious and fresh, the lady was very sweet , the place smells so good, fresh bread!!!

My mother in law likes the fresh bread from here for when she makes certain Mexican sandwiches. They make them fresh daily and you can always get them fresh out of the oven.Only draw back is that it is hot as hell in the bakery. Get in and get out quick or you might boil. :)

Best saltenas I had in USA. The service is great. They had them fresh in the morning and to take out and bake them at home.

Customer service is bad. Saltenas are okay. The lady who helped me last time was mean more likely I won't be coming back just because of that. I'll go to another saltenas place wheee they greet customers in a nice and kind way.

I have always bought my Rosca de Reyes bread here. Since a couple of years ago, their bread is super dry. They charge so much for the rosca. I am being ripped off by the quality of it. The rosca used to be soft, fluffy, nice sweet taste of pineapple and oranges along with other fruits. Now, it is dry and stale without those fruits and ingredients.

Great authentic Bolivian Salteñas, Llauchas, llajua, passancalla and great service! A staple!
