Customer service needs to be worked on while I was placing my order the cashier was talking about her personal life which is not a great idea when you have a customer in front of you . I’m still giving a 5 star because the pupusas revueltas were super delicious and the plátanos fritos omg the BEST 😋😋
Great Pupusas, also got the yuca with chicharon, pupusas were nice and filling and they got some good drinks in their fridge.
Growing up around the corner this was the continuous spot, recently visited and the staff is super rude and condescending now, well the cashier anyways.

La Piñata is a family-owned restaurant known for its authentic Salvadorean food, especially the pupusas, which are highly praised for their taste and often disappear quickly during work group lunches. The menu also includes popular dishes like sopa de pollo, pescado frito, tamales, and pollo guisado. Many customers prefer to take their food home because the restaurant can get loud inside, but the quality remains excellent. The restaurant offers great parking and easy wheelchair access.
While the restaurant has an authentic feel, service can sometimes be slow, and there have been issues with incorrect orders. The horchata has been described as a bit too sweet, and in one instance, plantains were not delivered. The location features an air filter that is not functioning, causing the front door to stay open year-round, which makes the interior colder during winter. Despite these challenges, visitors often find the food worth the wait, especially the pupusas, which are considered the best around. Vegetarian options like cheese and bean with loroco are recommended, with the suggestion to ask for a spicier salsa if preferred.
