La Salsa E Valley Pkwy Reviews
If you don't like fresh, local, authentic, delicious, and addictive salsa then this probably isn't for you. This has been the only salsa we'll buy for years because it's so much better than everything else. It can be hard to find, but it's consistently at Windmill Farms, Sprouts, and some other local stores (occasionally I've found it at Vons but not regularly). It's hands down the best and most authentic salsa you can buy; to get any refresher you'll need to get a molcajete and an abuela.
Delicious! Best salsa I've ever had the pleasure to eat! I hope they come out with a chunky version as well! I see the "hair" people are accusing this of having, but they are mistaken! The "hair" is a long fiber possibly from the tomatillo or cilantro plant!! Don't let those ignorant comments detour you from having a spectacular flavor experience!

Best salsa period. Just like fresh made restaurant salsa, but better.
Best salsa ever made on the planet!
Best salsa I've ever had.
DO believe the hype. Just pick up a tub and see for yourself...
I love the hot salsa!!
Best salsa ever made!
Awesome salsa!
I am obsessed with this salsa. It has become one of my favorites . It is perfectly balanced with a slight kick that’s not over powering. Definitely recommend ! The best salsa !

Muy buen lugar
It's the best salsa I have ever had. I can't believe it is so inexpensive and fresh.
This is seriously the best salsa I've ever had. We purchase ours at Vons. You can't just stop eating this stuff after one or two chips...its so addictive.
Absolutely the best store bought salsa that I have ever eaten. It is way better than most salsas at these Mexican restaurants and Taco shops hands down! Get the hot...
Literally the BEST salsa in the world! It’s so fresh and the flavor is just astounding!
We are always trying new Salsa at different place looking for the best taste and by far this is the best Salsa we have ever had!! Love, love, love it!
Best Salsa! Period. It always hits. Would love to know the story behind this amazing brand
Best salsa I ever had! Too bad I live in Ohio, fortunately I come to San Diego several times a year.
Delicious salsa, I buy it at my local Ralph's (paradise hills) awesome taste.
It is literally the best salsa I've ever had, we go through two containers a week :o
SO GOOD! My fav salsa. Made in here in SAN DIEGO!
This salsa is amazing and made right here in san Diego! I can’t get enough of it.
Thank you for making such a great salsa! When are you going to sell a large party size?
I was looking for a salsa with low salt. My primo introduced me to this wonderful salsa. I can't believe it only has .07% in it. It's so good. I swear there has been times I was tempted to drink it stright out of the container. I prefer the HOT because i like things on the spicier side. Give it a try you'll be glad you did.
Not possibly or maybe...but DEFINITELY the best salsa I've ever had. The roasted garlic version is absolutly so flavorful. I've brought chips and La Salsa Chilena to gatherings and announced that any other salsa that you think is good is about to be thrown out the window, run over by a bus, then swept up by a street sweeper. Get your taste buds ready because your wig is about to be pushed back! I've even gone to the store for friends and bought a container for them to try. Again, love me some Roasted Garlic version. I love that there are actual chuncks of garlic in here. Not bits of a piece of garlic clove, but actual garlic cloves. There's gotta be at least 5 split cloves in each container. Regardless of how many, I'm a big fan and will continue to be as long as I see it when I go to get it.
I love salsa and this may be the best brand I’ve come across in a while. So fresh and so tasty! I love the roasted garlic salsa! Look for it in the refrigerated section.
My favorite salsa! They make good stuff - right balance of cilantro, garlic, heat, fresh and great flavor. Best I've had - and I do love my salsa.
THE BEST! No really THE BEST salsa I have found premade is the Hot La Salsa Chilena..found now in most stores. I buy it Frasier's. It's the yellow chili that makes it plus every ingredient is balanced perfectly! YUm!!!
I love your salsa🤤 All the fresh ingredients with a small amount of salt make the PERFECT salsa. Bonus: The label's are easily removed from the container & lid so it's totally reusable.
Everyone at the company! Why is there no website? Did we miss it??? All I can say is this is crack salsa. Recently moved to Menifee, CA from Chicago and this is the best damn thing I've tried in a long time. We like spice and great, fresh flavors and this is IT. We had just moved here and I was shopping at Ralph's and saw this in the BACK of the store in the cooler section and thought we'd try it. Absolutely addicted. We like the HOT (not reallly that hot but we'll take it) and we buy 2-3 at a time. Recently, as we were checking out at Ralph's, the employee mentioned she CRAVED it while pregnant. Such a good product, love, love, love it.
This is the best freshly “home made” store bought salsa I’ve ever had. Been buying it for years. I moved from SoCal to NorCal, I’m hoping that they bring it to the Safeways over here in NorCal! Specifically San Joaquin and Sacramento Counties 😭 When ever I do fly to SoCal I always pick some up and bring them home hehe
Fresh, simple, authentic and delicious. This is the best salsa ever. I discovered it when I lived in San Diego and now that I moved I miss it daily. I hope they start supplying Whole Foods and Sprouts outside of San Diego.
I've been living in Guatemala for 10 years and I'd like to consider myself I salsa connoisseur. I have literally traveled the world tasting salsa along the way this is by far one of the best salsas I've ever eaten. It's shameful to say I go through a pint a day... Nearly a gallon a week ... just me all by myself. The family is super sweet as well. I have no problem dumping my money into such a nice family. They have a booth at farmer's market on Wednesday in OB. Check it out and see for yourself.
Been eating this for about 24 years , Only one problem i cant stop eating it . Love it , I use it with unsalted corn chips from trader joes but they dont stock chilena , try alberstsons, vons or sometimes ralphs. Great on tacos and burgers too.
This is hands down the BEST salsa you can get at any store! Fresh ingredients and excellent flavor! So good I quit making salsa fresca at home.
This salsa is absolutely amazing. The flavor is rich, authentic, and perfectly balanced — you can really taste the quality and the traditional ingredients in every bite. It has just the right amount of heat to keep things exciting without overpowering the food. You can tell this is made with care and real passion, not like generic store-bought salsa. It elevates everything you put it on — tacos, eggs, chips, literally anything. Warning: once you try it, it’s very hard to stop eating 😂 Highly recommended for anyone who loves real, authentic salsa.
BEST SALSA EVER!!! We love salsa & so hard to find a good store bought one!! This is it!!! We buy like 5 at a time because it’s so good!! We used to only be able to find it at Sprouts & now I can buy at Ralph’s! So glad it’s coming to more & more stores!! Do you guys make a hot sauce too?! If not, I have faith yours would be amazing!!
Best store bought salsa EVER and I’m not exaggerating! Most salsa at Ralph’s is flavorless, or not spicy when you buy hot, or it has a million sketchy ingredients but not this one! This salsa is super tasty, perfectly spicy, and has a short list of recognizable ingredients. This is the only salsa I’m buying going forward since it’s straight up addicting!

Saw the comments about the hairs. I couldn’t believe it, mine has a bunch of these hair looking things. I have no idea what this is.
Full of what seems to be strands of plastic. Absolutely delicious, but these strands are deeply concerning.
Got a gray hair in a tub of mild salsa, a thick beard hair about two inches long. .Purchased from Sea Trader in Pt. Loma. Disgusting for sure, sticking with legitimate brands from here on out. Have purchased expired product in the past, and was trying to be patient and all, but last straw for this garbage! YUCK 🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮
What’s with all the hairs in the salsa? Tastes good but……yikes!
I bought this salsa on two separate occasions, both times it has multiple hairs in it! Black and grey hairs, short and curly, long about 2-4 inches. Can't believe I gave it a 2nd try, but again - there's hair in the salsa!
