I found this wonderful restaurant while searching for panes rellenos on Christmas Day. The food was sooo delicious and authentic and the service was great. I ordered panes rellenos, pupusas, and tamales de pollo; the food was hot, fresh, and "homemade". This is my new favorite Salvadorian restaurant.

We came in on a cold Sunday morning and so had the place almost to ourselves. It was very quiet. The tv was on but the volume was down. The service was quick and our server was professional, friendly and helpful. And the food was excellent. I had the desayuno guanaco and hubby had the desayuno loco. We would for sure order them both again, but we won’t because we will try something else on our next visit. Excellent choice for breakfast.

The pupusas and plantains are fabulous! Great prices and service too. Dine in is good for kids and groups, but their dining room isn't much. It's a great takeout option, and if you order from their website they give you a free drink.

Really great food. Had the Pupusas de Chicharron and a Garden Salad for lunch, left full and satisfied. I even had extra salad to take home for later. Their drink options are great too, even offering Jamaica and Horchata drinks along with your meal. Definitely give this place a go if you're with friends or family, or just in the area.

I was craving pupusas and looked in the area and saw this and order some because of the rating. I ordered 2 pupusas and yuca con chicharrón and it was so good and their big , it’s on my top list of good pupusa places . My top one was La fogata and went for 15 years till they closed down . So this will be my place to go

We come here a lot. It's become a default destination for comfort food. Consistently well made El Salvadoran dishes that somehow remind me of home, even though I grew up in the eastern hemisphere. I have yet to try a dish I didn't like. Sometimes I just get a taco and coffee and barley spend $6. Other times I get one of their larger dinner combos that take me past $20 (with Topo Chico to drink), but I often take home leftovers because the portions are generous. Their soups are great.

Place was really clean and service was very humble the way the food is arranged to go is very organized and clean. Food was hot when I got home and tasted amazing. El lugar estava bien limpio y eran vien hamables. La comida estava sabrosa y bien puesta para llevar.

Absolutely loved the papusas! They were big, cheesy and perfectly cooked! (Even better re-heated on the pan at home!) The pasteles de pollo were crunchy and flavorful! We got the chicken and potatoes- and the best chortido I’ve had yet! Kudos to this restaurant!
