Salvadoran Restaurants near Bellflower, CA

“First time here for breakfast. My wife and I ordered the Huevos Rancheros comes with 2 eggs, beans, sour cream, cheese, fried plantains and chorizo and 2 homemade tortillas. Let me tell you it was delicious. We’re definitely coming back for more. The service was amazing Yasin was our waitress very hospitable and very professional.“

“I have been eating at this restaurant for more than one year. Their food has a great taste, and the service is excellent and friendly. All the plates look like they were cooked with love and care, compared to other Salvadoran restaurants I have visited in these areas, where they serve food to make money regardless of whether the dish is well cooked or not. Excellent restaurant!“

“Come here for a nice Salvi breakfast you'll love it! I've been coming here for years and I'm never disappointed. Family friendly food is consistent and it's local. I recommend the breakfast they have quite a bit of options and the pupusas are very good here. The curtido and salsa is also on point. I also like how well lit and clean the place is that's a big plus for me.“

“Larga espera,No habia casi gente y esperarmos mas de 1 hora..La orchata horrible era pura azucar,La comida puro aceite y sin sabor..No se si seran los mismos dueños pero nada que ver como cuando abrieron..La mesera pesimo servicio.“

“This place is amazing, the food is delicious, and the portions are so big that you can honestly share a plate. I cannot emphasize how delicious the food is. The meat is tender and juicy, the salvadoran plate felt authentic, it had that taste that is so missing here in US. Even the Peruvian plate was delicious and better than Inka Mama's. I would definitely recommend eating here.“

“My family was in the mood for Central American food and after a quick google search I found this small hole in the wall restaurant.Glad I came here the food was delicious. The pepperoni popusas were bomb and cheesy (a lot of places skimp out on the cheese not here) . The garnachas were also good an order gets you 8!!!. Good bang for your buck.Will be coming back for breakfast.“

“great food. great service. I recommend this restaurant“

“This place is much better than Comalapa across the street. The staff is friendly and their flavors are 10/10. Their pupusas are gigantic. I got the breakfast eggs with beans, plantains, tortillas, cheese, and sour cream, and their portions and flavor are the best. The beans were bomb. 100% recommended“

“Absolutely delicious! The pupusas were fresh, perfectly cooked, and packed with flavor. The curtido and salsa were the perfect complement, and the service was warm and welcoming. You can tell everything is made with care. I’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place to anyone craving authentic, homemade pupusas!“

“I've never been there at night but it still gets good. I go to breakfast often and I love the re-vamp they have done. The menu has a new look even the workers are more professional. I really like the pupusas at this restaurant. 10/10 I recommend Bon appetit!“

“El personal super amable , las pupusas y el atol de elote delicioso !! Hemos ido varias veces y siempre son tan serviciales !! Muchas gracias 😊“

“My husband and I just tried this place tonight and it’s so good! We ordered the revuelta, been and cheese, and plain cheese. They were all full of flavor. Would definitely come again.“

“I'm not Salvadorian, but I love Salvadorian foods. This restaurant makes me even more of a pupusa-lover. Since I don't know Spanish, the Google translator helps me to communicate with the employees. But I even love it. Definitely, more often I will come back to order my dinner from this restaurant!

Wheelchair accessibility: Park rear with handicap placard, and there is wheelchair accessible entrance.“

“Had pupusas to go and they are amazing, had lots of cheeae and tasted to good wth the curtido amd tomato sauce mix in. The price and size of rbe pupusas are a good deal.. I highly recommend this place. First time tasting their pupusas and coming back.“

“Homey restaurant that serves up fresh homemade El Salvadoran food. Everything was fresh and good. The fried plantains with black beans and eggs with fresh tortillas I feel we're meant for pupusas which works for me. CASH ONLY. Street parking only with locals as most customers like myself. Hole in the wall special!! And know the homeless try to come in and beg for money which is interesting because the paying customers just ignore. Provecho.“

“Delicious food and good service“

“I recommend this place they have nice service and the food is good I love to come hear with my family“

“Food is really good, delicious popusas!“

“la comida bien salada, pedi 4 pupusas y curtido me dieron como para una nomas la sopa de Pata bien fria y solo vegetales tenia no tenia Pata ni panza y la Horchata estaba agria y le dije a la mesera k me la cambiara me dijo k nose podia k mal servicio y todo Bien caro“

“Small restaurant.When coming here I enjoy getting their pupusas for take out. Very rarely eat in.They mostly speak Spanish so for me there's a little bit of a language issue. I guess on a fundamental level they are good with customer service. For their patients mostly and for not rejecting me and/or some other negative experience.Would I go again? Yes for spontaneous urge for pupusas.Would I recommend? Yes, I Encourage at least a few visits. To draw own personal feel. Support small business that has great pupusas, plus potential good food.“

“This a great place for pupusas.I had both a loroco and a revuelta pupusa. The loroco was very cheesy and had a very nice light veggie taste from the blossoms. The revuelta was full of flavor and not overly salty.The cortiodo had a nice bite to it and a pleasant balance between the herbs and vinegar.I also had a tamale de elote, it tasted very fresh. It came with crema and beans, and was a nice finish to my lunch.I think they make their own tamarindo Agua fresca - it had a nice tartness without being overly sweet.“

“I absolutely love eating at Vicki’s Restaurant in South Gate! If you’re craving authentic Salvadoran food, this is the spot.

My go-to order is the pupusas revueltas — they’re always perfectly stuffed, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and served with fresh curtido and salsa that taste homemade. You can tell everything is made with care.

Their pastelitos de pollo are another favorite — flaky, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. And the pan con pollo? So good. The chicken is tender, well-seasoned, and the sandwich is stacked with fresh toppings that bring everything together.

The food tastes traditional and comforting, like something straight from a family kitchen. The portions are generous, and the flavors are always consistent.

Highly recommend if you’re in South Gate and want real Salvadoran comfort food!“

“The fact that everyone who rates the place less than a 5 star because of service and not food tells you everything you need to know. THE FOOD IS GOOD! Ive never had a problem with their service. They've always been polite and no nonsense. Ive eaten there ( small place) and also ordered it for take out. So , I recommend this place for their excellent, authentic food.“

“buena comida auténtica comida. salvadoreña excelente 👌 servicio“

“I went today on a whim and tried out their Pupusa's. I tried the jalapeno and cheese, beans and cheese with chicharron, and the chicken and cheese. All three were big and had a great portion of all the stuffings. Great salsa and curtido as well“

“I recommend this place they have nice service and the food is good I love to come hear with my family“

“If you plan on wanting to eat at home, definitely order ahead..Wait for Pupusas is usually about 20 minutes. The people there are very nice, they have reasonable prices, and I feel like they are consistent with the quality of their food( at least for the last 5 years that I've been going).. my go tos are usually Pupusas de queso con jalapeño and bean and cheese, oh and the loroco ones. Plus an order of yucca frita with chicharron.“

“Best pupusas ever. I’ve also tried their sopa de gallina, pan con pollo and yuca con chícharron which have all been excellent. Our go to is the pupusas revueltas grandes which will be a little bigger, have more filling and are so cheesy! We accompany our pupusas with the plate of Platanos con frijol y queso and a large ensalada drink, hits the spot every time. Everything is made to order so you might wait a while but it’s definitely worth it.“

“Best place to get pupusas salvadorian, best ones I recommend for intense flavor would be revueltos. The salsa that comes with it is a tomato salsa, bit watery-BUT not spicy at all AND delicious(especially the chicken/cheese pupusas!). Flavorful cooked plantains, sides, and chorizo sausage amazing! The staff are nice too! Definitely recommend!“

“Rica comida, buen servicio!!“

“litterly everything is great here . so glad to have some great tacos in town .they are great people too . over just great experience you will love it .“

“good pupusas across from Nogales High“

“I have gone to the champas because I have to pick up the pupusas that my wife orders to take away. They make some plantains that wrap beans and they are tasty and the pupusas too, except that I suffer from acids and vinegar because it makes my stomach upset, since I had an appendix operation, but if you have a good and healthy stomach I recommend them but not excessively so that it doesn't hurt your stomach too.“

“las pupusas sopa de pata👍“

“The food is good and decently priced.I like the fact that you can get Salvadorian dishes or Mexican.Since it's located in a lower-income area, the atmosphere is not even mid-tier.Don't let that discourage you.I enjoyed the chilaquiles with a side popusa.“

“buen ambiente y muy buena la conida“

“me gusto mucho las pupusas riquísimas la a ten ion excelente está en mis planes volver para probar más comidas“

“I’m only doing review on the food because it’s my first time trying it and I ordered through Uber eats. I ordered pupusas revuelta, cheese , beans & cheese, and some plátanos fritos and omg IT WAS DELICIOUS! I took my shot by ordering through uber eats and I’m glad I did 😊 can’t wait to the try sopa de gallina!❤️“

“Very delicious authentic comfort food. Large portions very delicious and friendly workers!! 5 out of 5 ⭐️“

“An exceptional place. We had breakfast, a typical salvi breakfast plate,huevos rancheros, freshly made tortillas, cafe de holla, and Jamaica, all perfectly well made. Their service was when beyond asked for fries 🍟 for us son, even though it was not in the menu they made us fries.

Parking: Parking on the right side of the restaurant.

Kid-friendliness: Kids seats available“

“It's was good I liked it. I will definitely go again.“

“My new fave obsession: Mangonadas from Espiguita De Oro! Sooo good and so unique. I admit I was slightly intimidated to go in because I don’t speak/read Spanish & worried I would know what was what. But the staff answered all my questions—super friendly. I also ordered a Philly cheesesteak empanada & a bbq pulled pork empanada. They were HUGE & delicious. But I’m telling you, you’ve got to try a mangonada!“

“I just tried Loroco Bistro restaurant for the first time, and I was blown away! The food was absolutely delicious and hands down some of the best Salvadorian food I’ve had. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and made with care. My husband and I are definitely coming back! Plates were full, services was great the staff was very attentive and they had the tvs with the games on so we were happy!! .. highly recommend!“

“Excelente lugar 😇sus deliciosos menú 👌 😋 y las pupusas son de éxito 🙌 😋 muchas gracias 🇸🇻 un lugar muy salvadoreño muy encanta“

“Today is my 4th time coming here, close to my house near South Gate park. I've had breakfast 3 times & today I came for a Sopa de Gallina. I must say their food is delicious, the presentation is very appealing & their service has been consistent & pleasant. I would highly recommend you come in & try it for yourself. Thank you for the great food & service. Jose D. ?“

“Muy rica comida, el lugar es muy limpio y los precios son razonables.“

“Don’t let the city scare you, this is a very nice and clean restaurant.

The food is very good, they serve both Salvadoran and Mexican food. I have only tasted the Salvadoran food, pupusas, sopa de pata, traditional breakfast etc. the dining area is spacious and will accommodate a large family. If you want authentic tasting pupusas or Salvadoran food this would be the place to eat.

There is plenty of onsite parking for both the restaurant and the other business.“
