Salvadoran Restaurants near Fullerton, CA

“Everything was delicious. From the first coffee that came out to the last bite, my little one kept asking for more chicken, so flavorful.
You have to try their tamales, the masa has great taste and the texture is perfect. Their pupusas were perfect ratio of masa to filling and were not greasy at all. We also tried their gallina guisada with rice and salad, perfect! This is not a regular menu dish, but try anything guisado, and I’m sure it’ll be great also.
I enjoyed the service and atmosphere also.
I don’t write many reviews, but I had to for El Sabor de El Salvador because I definitely recommend.“

“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.“

“Recomiendo rio Restaurante por la comida muy orijinal benga buen servício“

“So this was my first time trying the food here and I was disappointed. I definitely recommend this place. Looked clean, organized and again the food was great. I got the bean And cheese papusas, and tamales. If I am ever in the area and craving salvadorian food, I will be coming here again.“

“Love love loved it ! I don't like to eat out any Mexican restaurant. Always a major disappointment. My mom taught me very well what good food is . And, most places is bland and just not cooked right. And to damn expensive. I Highly recommend this place . They made me feel like I mattered. In dying mall I was mind blown and content. I wish them well. Very Genuine people.“

“The food is very delicious, the corn atol is very delicious, the best in the entire state of California, and the empanadas de leche are delicious. My respects go to this restaurant, simply the best in everything, including the pupusas. And the kindness of Juany, very kind and very patient to answer questions.; and very attentive at all times“

“My God! These pupusas were very good. My mother and I loved them. My mother never eats pupusas, but when she tried my pupusas she wanted more. I really recommend you try these. The tamales were amazing too. My grandmother and mother loved them.“

“El caldo de ayer,me encanto.ese lugat me gusta.porque la comida esta sabrosa.y lo mas importante de un restaurante para mi.es el baño,felicidades estan muy limpios,.les recomiendo este lugar!!“

“We stayed next door at the Great Wolf Lodge and were looking for dinner that wouldn't cost us an arm and a leg. We found this Pupuseria next door and decided to give it a try. I must say that we enjoyed the pupusas very much. They were delicious. The pricing was good and the size is that of your average pupusa. Our server was really nice and helped answer any questions that we had. He came constantly to see if we needed or wanted to order anything else. We actually did order a few more pupusas and a macho banana with condensed milk (which was delicious). I would definitely come back to eat here if I was in the area, or when we come back to the hotel next door. If you are staying at the GWL, just walk over, it's next door. No need to move your car from the crazy parking structure.“

“If you are looking for a good beef broth, come to this restaurant, it is small, clean and has very good food. It is almost always full so the service is always a little slow because they have to attend to tables, orders, customers, etc. I highly recommend the beef soup (beef broth), the dish is perfect and they add a lot of meat more than vegetables. It is advisable to go early as it takes a while to serve the food.“

“The food was DELICIOUS! But make sure to order online and PAY online, if you order online and pay at the store it is even more expensive, like one dollar extra per item. The store only has one entrance and the way the seating is set up, it is crowded. Other than that, super friendly people and did I mention the food was DELICIOUS.“

“Seasoning can be better with a lil more salt overall. I like the zucchini and queso pupusa. I was a bit disappointed about the frijoles consistency though. I’ve had better pupusas. But I want to support the business in my neighborhood rather than driving 30mins to fix my pupusas craving. Not too bad. I would come back.“

“We stopped here by accident. I needed a restroom my daughter was hungry. The pupusas were out of this world and handmade right in front of us. We were on our way to pick up my other daughter from the airport and we came back on the way back so that we could share how good they were. There were nice clean places to sit and counter service and a fridge full of drinks. The prices were reasonable and the service was excellent“

“Was in town for a few days and saw this place. I grew with El Salvadorian friends asa child and to this day every Sunday his family gets together to make homemade pupusas; and that’s what this place reminded me of. Fresh homemade food. It’s a small place and you can see them making and grilling them on the spot. The guy working told me that it was going to be a wait for the food because they were busy and apologized. As I waited he kept checking up on me and then he gave two for free because of the wait. They were UNBELIEVABLY good! I got the cheese, beans and cheese, and meat ones. I highly suggest stopping by if you can.“

“If you’re looking for real authentic Mexican food here is the hole in the wall. Delicious Popusas. The birria Tacos with Hand Made tortillas hits the spot! Blessed to have places like this open and sharing our culture foods to others. Come try this place!“

“todo esta delicioso.... la comida 100% salvadoreña“

“They make great pupusas And chicharron con yucca. The fried yucca tastes so good. Almost like french fries but better Be prepared to wait if you order in the morning. They open at 9, but that's when the staff gets there. If you want something quick forget it. It takes a minute to get everything going. If you don't mind waiting or coming in later the place has a nice vibe. The music is a bit loud for my taste. I like to hear the conversation with my companion.“

“Service was friendly and attentive, The pupusas were made fresh to order which added to the yummy nom nom flavor 🤤 Dining in let's you hear the fresh pupusas being made, my mouth was watering as we waited. We will come back for more soon! The bean and cheese pupusas were my favorite.

The kids menu was fair, my toddler had a great time and ate more than half of his food: it's a win win.“

“Very friendly and helpful.All the waitress are very pretty.The dishwasher even greeted us with a Buenas Tardes,Opened the door for us.That kicked off a great evening dinning there.Can't complain everything went smooth,Popusas were freshly made brought to us hot.Great way to end a hard working week.Gracias“
