Salvadoran Restaurants in Los Angeles, CA

“My friends and I came to place because they are known for their pupusas to celebrate one of their birthday. So they ordered the different pupusas and I got the ribeye with shrimp for my food. They loved the pupusas and it's a big portion. The ribeye steak and shrimp was delicious especially the pico de gallo that came with it. The customer service was amazing and there a private lot in the back for parking.“

“This restaurant is like a pearl in a clam in HP neighborhood. They serve delicious Salvadoran food. The restaurant can sit about five tables. It's clean and well lighted. There are two colorful wall paintings depicting life of Salvadorans. The cashier has a cheerful voice which enlightens your day. She's very friendly and knowledgeable.“

“What makes this place special is that you get to watch them make the pupusas. Their pupusas are wonderful and they have a wide range of other Salvadoran items on their menu. We had to wait fairly long, but it was worth it. They are hand made special for you and the get loads of business.“

“I had an event last week and order various items at Saritasl's pupuseria. I ordered pupusas: carne asada, chicken, shrimp, revueltas and they all tasted amazing. I highly recommend this restaurant. My coworkers enjoyed the amazing tast. Thank you for the amazing service ❤️“

“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!“

“Amazing food, my girlfriend and I stumbled upon this place while walking. The host was so friendly, explained the menu and answered our questions as we are new to Salvadoran food. The prices are great too. We will be coming back for sure!!!“

“Just one detail that I want you to be able to correct is the tanning that you can grind the marjoram a little because it has some very long twigs and one of those sticks got stuck in my throat and I couldn't get it out until with the help I took it out with some tweezers. I hope you pay attention to this detail.“

“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.“

“The Pupusas were delicious not greasy at all. They taste freshly made. The horchata was also very good. I was impressed, andI don't mind waiting when i know that the food is freshly made! I would come back if we find ourselves in that area again. The service was also good.“

“The chipillin tamales w beans were warm n soft n the pupusa was cheesy n brownly crisped so nicely. I could feel the luv in the food u kno . The guy at the register described diff dishes on the menu w sm care n brought out salsa n 2 types of hot sauce w the cabbage :9 also the Salvadoran horchata was so good, it’s nuttier n earthier n less sweet . All for $13 . Felt like a warm hug :~)“

“Some of the best pupusas I’ve had. This place is a great little whole in the wall spot with amazing food. We happened to stumble upon it and it made our day. They make you feel so welcome and we tried everything from the pupusas, siete mares, tacos and burritos. This spot is a must try!“

“Best seafood I’ve had in years!“

“I love this little but great restaurant, pupusas and seafood are delicious in general al dishes they serve are rich in flavors, I saw many people complained about the old lady the owner,That depends on how the customers treat each other or how they spoke to her. Both she and the people who work with her are very kind and helpful. I have known that restaurant forever and I still like the food like the first time I went to eat there.“

“Good spot for a quick bit or a full meal. I stop like ritual every morning for my pan con frijoles/huevos/creso duro, can't go wrong. The food is delicious and the girls are nice, not mean like other places I've gone. I think it is a spot that is underrated, been in a corner, no parking lot. Feels cozy. Like one of those little spots, you go in El Salvador and get surprised.“

“Great food and friendly service the pupusas are the bomb 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽“

“This place is a hidden gem! First time trying out their liver with sautéed onions with veggies and rice and let me tell you it was worth it, I also ordered their signature Salvadorean dish Chicarrón pupusas with red spicy tomato sauce and pickled cabbage curtido and they were one of the best combos I've ever had.“

“Authentic Salvadoran pupusas!

El Jocoreño is a little piece of Latin America in Los Angeles! Right now basic pupusas are $3.50 which is a great price for a sit down restaurant and the pupusas are amazing.

The restaurant is humble but it’s not a hole in the wall. The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming. People say “Good Afternoon” as they pass bye quite often. Locals come here and they have loyal customers. It’s a little piece of El Salvador! I love the atmosphere and listening to the cumbias in the kitchen!

This is my favorite pupusa restaurant and I’ve been to other good sit down pupusa places!

I had two pupusas revueltas with beans. They have chicharron and cheese as well. I also had a special Lent pupusa made of rice flour and shrimp. All pupusas here are not greasy, they’re thick and packed with flavor! Very important because many places sell greasy pupusas. I also had a delicious cup of tamarind water! One of my favorite drinks is Salvadoran horchata which is different than Mexican horchata. I like their version better. Try it. It’s amazing!

The service here is so good! The lady that attends you is a sweet woman with great manners and very efficient.

I believe they are cash only still.

Meter parking outside. They have a small lot behind the restaurant!“

“Biggest thing to know is that is cash only. The place is very compact, but homey.
Good food, and well seasoned. Only issue was how expensive it was. Parking is a little tough, but worth it for a little piece of Central America here in LA. Posting the latest menu updates circa 09/2024“

“Outside seating ambiance was amazing“

“Very good service. Love your food dishes with the correct temperature and presentation. quality ..apart from helpful attention ..only on some occasions I find some that serve as bad for getting out of the commitment ..I would ask that they maintain the temperament of kindness regardless of their personal problems or some problem with kitchen to serve ..nothing more than that ..but in general I give 8.5“

“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.“

“OMG! Thee BEST pupusas Ive ever eaten! The curtido & salsa that goes with this dish is so tasty, make sure u order XTRA to put on top. Not becuz they give u a small portion, becuz it's so yummy delicious, your gonna definitely wanna pack it on your pupusas. A must try if u enjoy pupusas! But parking is not ideal. So bring a friend to jump off your car to get order to go, while u spin the block.“

“-Todo delicioso. guacamole con chapulines, tasajo de carne y el mole negro, todo exquisito. Recomendado El Sabor de mi Tierra.! 👍😃💯♥️“
