“Salsabor Restaurant is a true hidden gem! The food is bursting with authentic Latin flavor — everything tastes homemade and fresh. I tried the carne guisada and empanadas, and they were absolutely delicious. The staff were friendly, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Perfect spot for a flavorful meal that feels like home!“

“Has to be the best pupusa, I have ever had. So good! Got the cheese and bean combination. I think what it takes it to the next level is the green sauce. It is just a little spicy. The pupusas itself are soft and just delicious. The ladies were really nice! Definitely coming back“

“If you’re craving authentic Salvadorian cuisine, Mis Raices is an absolute must-try! From the moment you walk in, the aroma of homemade flavors makes it clear this place takes its food seriously. The menu is packed with delicious options — but the pupusas are the real star. They’re made fresh to order with just the right balance of masa and savory fillings like revuelta (beans, cheese, and chicharrón) or cheese with loroco, and they come with perfectly tangy curtido and salsa that elevate every bite. Food is made fresh and you can hear the ladies making the pupusas.

The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, with friendly staff who make you feel right at home. While the restaurant is cozy (and can get busy at peak times), the food and overall experience more than make up for it. Prices are reasonable for the quality and portions you get.“

“Muy deliciosa la comida excelente y me encanto la pequeña librería“

“one of my favorite local spots for pupusas the service has always been super friendly.“

“This was our second visit--the first roughly a year before. If I lived nearby I would eat there as much as I could. The food is terrific and the price is more than fair for the repast. Every course from appetizer to desert was excellent. If you find yourself in La Veta you shouldn't skip it.“

“Delicious hot food, refreshing drinks, and fresh papusas. Friendly, fast service. Some entres tend to be very light on salt. A request I have for this place is to please place bilingual signage in front of each food item for easy identification and ordering. Although, they do have a menu on the wall, it's difficult to read for some. Other than that, food is fresh, hot, and delicious!“

“Menchita's was such a sweet surprise the food felt like it was made with love seriously every bite was packed with flavor I had the empanadas and wow they were crispy outside and so juicy inside The place isn’t fancy but it has that homey vibe that makes you wanna stay longer Staff was super warm and welcoming like you’re part of the family Portions are generous prices are fair and the drinks were spot on Definitely coming back next time I’m in the area“

“The pupusas are good, we ordered beans and cheese with loroco, some with rice and others with corn. Very friendly service, the two men who attended us.
The very Salvadoran horchata.
Clean place, clean bathroom and toilet paper ??“

“This restaurant is amazing! The food is flavorful, fresh, and perfectly cooked. Portions are generous, and the menu has a great variety for all tastes. The staff is welcoming and attentive, making the dining experience even better. Definitely a go-to spot for a great meal.“

“We met with friends at this restaurant for dinner. my friend recommended this restaurant. Well, it was very successful. The crew welcomed us with a smile and we had a fantastic feeling. The meal was delicious. We enjoyed every moment and we will visit this place again. Recommended.“

“toda la comida y las pupusas están deliciosas mñn también los frescos están buenisimos son naturales☺😍😘😘“

“Second time going and not only is the food absolutely delicious, but the customer service is very excellent. They actually greet you when you come in their doors and they treat you well. Reasonably priced for the portions and quality they give. Definitely recommend. I purchased 2 meals.“

“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“

“Being mexican this salvadorean spot is super good I get the tipico 3. 2 over medium eggs with platanos, casamiento and chorizo. It's my go to every time, we come at least once a month my kids love the pupusas. Great authentic salvadorean food“

“Muy rica las pupusas y la mariscada“

“Don't come here and expect valet parking. Park in the rear.Don't come here and expect a concierge. Walk to the front and open the door.Don't come here and expect a waitress. Announce yourself and sit down.Don't come here and expect some fancy restaurant. Appreciate the humble ambiance.Don't come here and expect the food to come in the blink of eye. Do bring a friend and converse while the food is prepared.Don't come here expecting to use your overpriced phone or plastic to pay for the meal. Bring some cold hard cash.Come here to enjoy some of the best food you will ever have. The dish soup is just amazing. The beans just perfect“

“Very nice staff, fairly quick service, great food. Although I will say, I've had a bit of inconsistency with dishes like the taquitos dorados in how they're prepared. I'm mexican, I'm not sure if it's a central American thing to add radish and cucumber on top of this dish, although the first time they were big slices, so I simply removed them myself but the second time it was finely diced so be aware that dished with a lot of preparation could vary a bit from time to time. That being said, the pupusas as amazing! My favorite is the chicharon con queso, I'm a big guy, and I'm honestly good with one, although I wouldn't mind 3!“

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

“A nice and quiet place, good food, a little more atmosphere, music, yes, but you can go to eat a Salvadoran meal with a Salvadoran woman and have a quiet time having a good time. The food and the service are important, and also many thanks to the cook because she cooks very well. well thanks for everything we will be back ?“

“(Translated by Google) The best attention that I have received has been in this place I recommend it to the fullest and the owner of another planet is super attentive, handsome server and above all Latino ????????????(Original)La mejor atención qe he recibo ha sido en este lugar se los recomiendo al máximo y el dueño de otro planeta súper atento guapo servidor y sobre todo latino ????????????“

“Perfect Salvadoran experience. If you have gone to Salvadoran restaurants, you know most are modest in the way they look inside, and this is no exception. Several small to medium tables in a single room. Most of the food is prepared when you order it so be prepared for a little wait. We had pupusas and an order of yuca con chicharrón. The revuelta and queso con loroco were perfect as well as the curtido and salsa de tomate. Two pupusas and I was stuffed!

Now, they do offer filling combinations that I had never seen anywhere else (I've been eating pupusas for over 50 years). I decided to try the shrimp pupusa. A couple of bites and I knew that was a mistake and I would never be ordering that again. It's just not a taste I expect in a pupusa, and nothing improved it. This is NOT a deal breaker of going to eat there. Just know that if you select from this extended menu, these are not typical of true Salvadoran pupusas.

No alcohol/alcoholic beverages served. So if you want a beer, get the food as takeout.

This is a definite must try if you are in the area.“

“la mejor comida del valle😋“

“The atmosphere is calming relaxing and entertaining. The service is good but it takes time and patience. I am surprised of the portion for my usual drink is big which is surprisingly nice and I usually of pork Pupusa and shrimp ceviche which is good“

“My first time ordering was over the phone, waited about 20 minutes and they were right about on time. Most restaurants take your order and forget the time. As for the Carne asada burrito and the Bean and cheese Pupusas were delicious. I will definitely be going back. Staff was nice.“

“(Translated by Google) I just love it !!!!! all the Central American snacks!!! Please visit them ??(Original)Simplemente me encanta !!!!! todos los antojitos centroamericanos !!!, son muy deliciosos?., también hay mucho productos importados de El Salvador y Guatemala… y amo a todo el staff ellos son muy amables y atentos …. Por favor visítalos ??“

“Ricas pupusas, antojitos salvadoreños y Pan.“

“I went in 20 minutes before closing when you’d expect the worst service but actually I received the best service! After my terrible experience with Mi Casita on Vanowen and Kester, I came here as my last resort.My pupusas were filled with flavor and not dry at all, the sauce was great and the curtido could of been better it takes more refrigerated. They also sell charamuscas here and their horchata is the best. The ladies were extremely nice and I got my order in less than 15 minutes. I’m definitely coming back here!“

“Me gusta mucho el ambiente familiar y su karaoke me divirto mucho cada vez que vamos mis amigas y yo“

“Best pupusas in Arleta, I recommend the gallina asada soup (delicious), sopa de res and the sopa de pata. Also the mojarra frita if you want to eat well and have real nutrients come here. It's a nice place to eat there as well they have a nice patio in front of the road where you can relax. 🫡 Estelitas Forever!“

“Delicious! Amazing food! Great service!My fish fillet with rice, beans and salad was very tasty.The scrambled pupusas also taste great.Passion fruit water tastes exactly as it should, not too sweet and not too sour, just the necessary flavor to refresh and quench thirst.Portions are very large, cater to the ferocious appetite, well I think so.The place is not very big, but the service is very good. I would definitely go back!!! test passed.“

“Oh, foods that I missed eating from my country and here I find them, even their seasoning is the same as mine, how funny he is, Salvador, it's good that here they haven't lost the reason for cooking, it's knowing that he doesn't just cook for a client, yes. not for someone in the family.“

“5 stars - A Holiday Treat!

We had the pleasure of enjoying Christmas lunch with family at this amazing, family-owned authentic El Salvadoran restaurant, and it was such a treat! 🌮❤️ The flavors were absolutely incredible, and the warm, inviting atmosphere made it feel like the perfect holiday gathering spot. The locals were so welcoming and personal, and the staff/owner were incredibly kind and amazing. As a special touch, they even gifted us a homemade order of plantain bananas with fresh handmade sour cream – it was so delicious, it literally melted in my mouth! Highly recommend if you're in the mood for a true El Salvadoran dining experience! Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas! 🎅🎄“

“OMG this is the 3rd time in a week that i order the pollo en crema (chicken in cream) is so delicious, so testy, full in flavor, and convine with the rice and the black beans is and explosion of flavors in my mouth..... I will not admitted but am getting addicted to this food.........?? this is a recomendable place to go !!!“

“Parking is horrible. Not their fault. Their sweet bread is delicious. A lot of talking between the employees it's hard to hear when they are asking you a question. The bakery itself is very small. I haven't tried their food but the sweet bread is good.“

“I give it a 4 stars because my 7 mares soup was missing seafood, even though it did taste very good. Their carne asada, to my taste, it could have tasted better. Their pupusas revueltas, definitely great. And the waitress was friendly with a smile on her face. ☺️ altogether the bill was $90. 4pupusas, 1siete mares and 1 carne asada plate and 3 drinks. You be the judge if it is pricey or just about right?.“

“great food and customer service is good the waitresses are great definitely would recommend 👌“
