Salvadoran Restaurants near Berkeley, CA

“Muy buen servicio buen ambiente“

“I am Salvadoran. I had the hongos pupusa, the chicken pupusa, the yuca con chicharrones. Every bite was an adventure. The Salvadoran dishes are made so creatively. Flavors stayed on your tongue as the sauce of la yuca. The drinks exceptional good. I had the mango verde cocktail….so rico. It was like eating Salvadoran food on fine china.“

“Deliciosa comida recomendadisimo al 100% y muy buena atencion“

“What a hidden gem!! Every single bite of food was just amazing. I am born and raised in El Salvador and I don't usually have a good experience with pupusas in the U.S., but this place? INCREDIBLE.

Why are you still reading this? Go enjoy some delicious pupusas!!“

“Son las mejores pupusas del area! Las chicas siempre muy amables 💓💓 los platanitos siempre están riquísimos , suaves y dulces!“

“It should be renamed Pupuseria la bamba or at least pupuseria y taqueria la bamba. The pupusas revueltas my friend and I had for lunch that day where mmmmm... the curtido aaaaah... and the salsa, wow!!!... With that said, you would have to go try them to understand what I mean. Genuine salvadorean flavor with a nice plate presentation for those who like to photograph their food!“

“I stumbled upon this place by chance, without reading any reviews beforehand, and I don't regret it at all.

The place is small, but it doesn't feel cramped. You can tell they keep it clean, well-maintained, and brightly lit.

The staff is fantastic; they explain everything with a smile, and you can see them preparing your order as soon as you place it. Despite that, the wait time isn't long.

I took pictures of the food almost at the end because I was so focused on enjoying every bite. So I can say their reputation is well-deserved.

P.S. If you like spicy food, ask for their habanero sauce. It wasn't as spicy as I expected, but it does add that extra touch of flavor.“

“I love this place. My favorite spot to get a breakfast burrito because They put just enough servings inside the burrito and its always wrapped so nice. I also liked the carne asada burrito, the pupusas and the service is good. Very nice people.“

“Pupusas are made fresh. Get your revueltas, or jalapeno y queso here. Takes 15 minutes or so to make so come ready. 2.50 for any pupusas. Tacos here are also delicious, comes with a lot of meat and very well flavored. 2.00 each. Horchata isn't super sweet which I like but cost 3.00 each.“

“My experience was awesome. I lived across the street from them and they made me feel like family. The staff, owners, and chefs never failed always the best. Im sorry I had to move. But maybe he can open a restaurant in Reno NV. I miss your food and your hospitality. I tell my friends about your place. Im sorry happy you came along way and now. Look at the best El Salvadoran Food in Richmond Ca. Your friend Sandy“

“buena comida las pupusas una delicia“

“Me encanta que la comida es hecha al momento y con sabor de casa. Las porciones son grandes y llenadoras, el trato que nos dan es muy amable y familiar!“

“Everything was wonderful. I had the cheese and loroco pupusa and a fried squash dish whose name I can’t remember. It was recommended by my Salvadoran nephew. He also loved everything. Others took home pastries for later.“

“Well I came in about 12:40. The place was empty. I ordered pupusas revueltas and tamal salvadoreño. Today they did not have the Regia beer that I love, but Pacifico is okay. Pupusas are great with Curtido and salsa. Authentic taste is so satisfying, reminds me of grandma's cooking. Tamales were delicious and fresh. The dining room was empty but I saw people come in and order to go. I ate so fast it was soooo yummy. Oh yes I almost forgot, it's cash only!“
