El Vicentino

El Vicentino is perfect! On the recommendation of my El Salvadorian friend celebrating a birthday, I visited El Vicentino on Saturday, March 6 for what can only be described as the most authentic El Salvadorean experience I've ever had. From the best pupusas I've ever tasted to authentic soft drinks, if you close your eyes you would think you are in El Salvador, but you can have all the flavor, history, and culture here in Queens, NY! I'd strongly recommend and if I lived closer, I'd be a regular! And you can feed a family on a budget.

The pupusas are incredibly delicious, offering a remarkable sensation of freshness. The beans are irresistibly addictive. I absolutely must sample the Sangria, it is simply divine. I will return next week. The prices are exceptionally favorable, making it irresistible to refrain from placing multiple orders. September 15th: Commemorating a significant occasion. All are invited to attend.

It's a cozy restaurant with a terrific menu. We wanted to try some Central America food, and we weren't disappointed. The waiter recommended the shrimp and pork pupusas, which were great, and they also offered sangria, which was a nice combination with what we ate. Had their Bandeja Salvadorena and Yuca y Chicharron. The yuca and fried pork was delicious. Will go back and try other menu items. Outdoor dining is an option with the cooler weather approaching.

As someone who has been looking for good Salvadoran food in NYC, this is the place to go. The place is small and intimate; but the portions are large and the prices are amazing. The server, manager and owners were so nice. I will be back again.

Great food and atmosphere. Service was excellent, quick response and very kind.
