Customer Reviews
I loved everything about this restaurant—except the parking lot. It’s quite small, and getting in and out can be a bit tight. Now, onto the food and service! Jose was an amazing waiter—welcoming, friendly, and attentive. I ordered a pork and potato tamale, a chicken and cheese pupusa, and two beef tacos. Every dish was delicious, and I couldn’t be happier with my choices. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!
Amazing food, the pupusas were phenomenal and the people rubbing it are very sweet. They sell a locally made quesadilla salvadoreno and its the best ive ever had. Can't recommend enough.
Main takeaway: Just get the pupusas! Solo ordenen las pupusas! We got two dishes: the Salvadorean breakfast and Cheese and Chicharon pupusas. The pupusas were nice and cheesy, but lacking on the Chicharon part. The Salvadorean breakfast on the other hand... the cream we got was definitely spoiled. The beans tasted like they were left out, bitter and definitely not what I grew up eating. The platanos were flavorless and stiff. The eggs were alright. The tortillas were nice homemade ones. The place itself... was small, dark and you're "almost" walking into the kitchen as you come in. There was a strong smell and it wasn't a pleasant one... the seating area is what you'd expect, but I feel you should be coming here to pick up and not sit down to eat. I'd agree with another reviewer that
Really good central American restaurant, remember Central America, not Mexican food, so you don't get disappointed, really good pupusas.
Chicken tamale was bland and mushy and the pupusa lacked flavor as well. I also ordered menudo and it was greasy. Not eating here.
