The Cuban bakery that made Glendale a pilgrimage — potato balls, cheese rolls, and strawberry fields cakes at impossible prices
Porto's is the great equalizer of LA dining — a Cuban bakery where a $1.75 potato ball may be the best single bite you eat all week. The Portos family built a Glendale institution that now draws pilgrims from every corner of the city. The cheese rolls are legendary: buttery, flaky, just enough cream cheese. Order the guava strudel, the medianoche sandwich, and an iced cortadito. Cash-register lines move fast; the hardest part is deciding what to bring home.
