About Chalateco

Chalateco is a popular restaurant serving El Salvadorian cuisine, offering a unique change of pace from Mexican food. The restaurant is known for its flavorful dishes, with a focus on plating and presentation. The staff is friendly, attentive, and helpful, making it a great spot for families. The menu features a variety of options, including the Salvadorian Rice and Beans, Quesadillas Gus, and Enchiladas, which are all highly praised. Many customers enjoy the house salsa and Tripas Tacos, often driving from nearby areas just to dine there. The atmosphere is lively, with the aroma of el Pastor and chicharrones wafting from the outdoor cooking area. During weekdays, it tends to be quieter and is mostly a to-go spot for fast Latin American style food. While prices may be a bit higher than some may expect, the overall experience is worth it. Visitors recommend trying everything and falling in love with Chalateco for its delicious flavors and friendly service.
