It’s a small place but the food is worth going there. I ordered camarones endiablados and they serve them with tortillas and let me tell you those tortillas are good!!! The sauce of the shrimp was a little bit salty but overall they were good.

They have a separate plant based menu. The Combinacion Esperanza (vegan) is so good
This might be the best spot in Pilsen for mole. In fact, La Esperanza won the 2021 People's Choice Award at Mole de Mayo, a summer event that gives local Pilsen cooks and restaurants a chance to highlight their best recipes, with two winners crowned at the end of the fest. The owner, Rosita Camarena, takes influence from her mother's cooking and uses chiles imported directly from Mexico in everything from their chilaquiles de mole for breakfast to her classic lunchtime chicken mole. Their extensive menu also caters to vegans with a section devoted to plant-based chorizo, enchiladas, and quesadillas. Note: They're also BYOB.
