Friendly staff. Excellent papusas, solid queso, homemade spicy green salsa. For a little Arkansas town, this was better than could have been expected. Would return.

DISGUSTING FOOD & NO APOLOGY!!! WAITER WAS YOUNG & WOULD ROLL HER EYES upon us asking for anything, once WE STOOD UP to pay our tab , since we couldn’t even get our receipt handed to usTHE cashier/cook older lady seems frustrated and takes a deep breath and stares at me like she has something to say.. but yet NO apology nasty food we’re truckers on the road and decided to give this hole in the wall a try disgusting do not go bad customer service for such a small town! 🗑️🤮

Beautiful day for a ride, so we decided to check out Cafe La Merienda in Danville for the first time. The papusas seemed to be highly recommended everyone, so, that’s what we started off with, three different kinds, and they did not disappoint, in fact, they were the best we’d ever had, as were the guacamole and handmade tortilla chips too. Next we had delicious plantains and beans which were amazing, but, the main dish was outstanding, we shared a plate of fried yucca, crispy pork and tiny little fish mixed in with a lovely cabbage….we could not believe how tasty this dish was, the yucca was perfectly crispy and fluffy in the middle, delightful!Everything was so very delicious, the service was wonderful and prompt, everyone was so sweet there, especially our server, and it was very inexpensive, our four shared courses came in at under $30, which is amazing in todays expensive world of dining out.I literally cannot wait to make the trip back there to try some more authentic delicious Salvadoran dishes. YUMMY!

Vegetarian options: Plenty of choice for vegetarians.

Parking: To s of parking out front.

First, is the entrance that smell that has to do with poor kitchen ventilation. If don't believe try it just by opening the door and is a strong smell. Food I gave a 3 star I just try the pupusas nothing else. The service had no good service just take the food order and vanished. Atmosphere mediocre outdated I have no idea if the bathrooms are ok.Finally, the time to pay, the cashier made several mistakes in prices and numbers were outrages for a few pupusas and a fish and some weird food that my sister ordered. One time mistakes are ok, but making the same mistakes three times is to closed the business.Is better to take out and maybe the price is cheaper. There is a sign that prices have changed, with that said it can be costly
