Will definitely be coming back!! My fiancé and I loved the combos this business had to offer. Pupusas and tacos were delicious. Will be coming back for their other dishes.

Don't get anything that involves a tortilla. They have handmade tortillas that they use a certain type of flower for that's kind of thick and it sucks it gives you the texture of eating rubber with real food on the inside. The atmosphere makes it look like a dingy Market but it's supposed to be a restaurant so the atmosphere takes a huge hit. The service though was very great they're really nice and very informative. I would rather clip my toenails and eat them than to ever eat from this place again. They charge way too much for the size portion that they give and you will be heavily disappointed if you eat anything from there that has to do with the tortilla you should go somewhere else to be completely honest. Also No I am Not CONFUSED on what type of food they had. Its El Salvadorian fo

I have loved the Salvadoran food I get here for nearly 20 years! They have had MAJOR improvements since I first went there in 1999/2000, and still serve the same delicious food plus offer a small selection of store goods. I was fortunate enough to meet the daughter of the original owners who is now running the restaurant and store while the parents remain involved cooking!
