Food is just ok, nothing special. Frescos were really diluted and lacked taste. The restaurant does not have a good exhaust so they keep their doors open even with the cold weather, even then the smoke of the kitchen still lingers in the entire place. So if you have asthma, order to go, and if you want to avoid getting the flu come when it is no cold.

Nice Salvadorean restaurant, cheese pupusas were very good, the revueltas lack chicharrón taste, not as good, type of pork skin maybe? Overall it's good, had better ones. Bathroom needs improvement.

Lovely family owned business that serves up authentic Salvadorean food. Some of our favorites are the pupusas, sopa de pollo, pescado frito, tamales, and pollo guisado. 👌🏽. We usually take out our food because it can get loud in there.
