El Pulgarcito Restaurant is a hidden gem serving authentic Salvadoran cuisine. The restaurant may be small, but the food and service are phenomenal. The menu features a variety of dishes, including pupusas, caldos, and banana leaf wrapped tamales, all made fresh to order. The staff is kind-hearted, friendly, and passionate about ensuring a great dining experience. The restaurant is clean, with a clean restroom, and is kid-friendly. The menu is in Spanish, but the staff is happy to explain the dishes. Must-try items include the pupusas, fried fish, passion fruit drink, fried plantains with beans and crema, and the chicken tamale. The food tastes super fresh and reminds guests of home cooking in Central America. The owner is sweet, and the cozy, homey vibe makes it a great spot for a delicious and authentic meal, whether dining in or taking it to go.
