The food was good but a little expensive and the service was not very good. Unfortunately they try to upsell and give you bad information

Friendly staff. Inexpensive dishes compared to gas lamp district. Everything tastes fresh and handmade. The hot sauce is deceptive!

This place is amazing, I have been going for years! The service and the food quality has stayed the same. The staff is amazing and so king. The atmosphere is lovely and welcoming. Their homemade salsa is the best!! I love taking my friends here.

Food is excellent! Service is typical of a Salvadorean locale… once your food is served, the server won’t check on you. You’ll need to ask for your check, pay and go. I’ll still eat at this place because the food is delicious.

I really enjoyed their pupusas.
Great food. Be prepared to wait up to 45 min for your order to be brought to you if it's during their peak hours (we went at 11 a.m/lunch time). Worth the wait IMO. I don't have a favorite entrée, but a pupusa is a must every time. I've had, the casamiento, bistec encebollado, salpicón, yucca frita y chicharrón, and the bistec ranchero and the Agua de ensalada....all of which I would recommend.

It had been a few years since I had been here and was completely disappointed to the poor quality of food and quantity. Mind you, years ago this was a place we often went to and invited many friends and acquaintances to it. The popusas are poorly prepared. It’s a shame. Never going again.

The pupusa’s here are soooo good! And the customer service is great! Only bad thing is the parking. Highly would recommend!

We were looking for Salvadorean food in the area and this did not disappoint!! The platter was amazing and offered a little bit of everything for all of the cravings, I will definitely be back.
We love the papusas and salvadorian horchata!

Pickup:
Today ordered their Desayuno Tipico and a Cheese Pupusa.
I eat at this establishment because usually the Desayuno is delicious. I would rate it 5 stars.
The only remark I have about this is that they give barely any sour cream.
However, the Cheese Pupusa was not good. There was barely any cheese. For 5 dollars as well is crazy.
I would forgive the price if the pupusa was actually full.
