The food here was so delicious and is made with love. My girlfriend picked us up an asada burrito, platanos fritos, pupusas de frijol, chicken and pork. The food was fresh, meat was tender, and pupusas were savory. We had quite an appetite. The authentic Salvadorian food and flavors had us satisfied and full-bellied for a reasonable price. Will be returning next time we’re craving amazing pupusas. Thank you Salvador

The best people! We had a little mix-up with my order, but they were so nice and accommodating while I waited. I highly recommend it to anyone – vegan or not. I especially loved the vegan tamales.

One of my favorite restaurants in LA! The food is delicious and made fresh. It is owned by a lovely family that are super kind, and you can tell they love cooking and serving food. They have a full vegan menu too. Just finished my lunch and I am already looking forward to the next time I get to eat there.
They also do catering/large orders so keep them in mind for big gatherings.
