Salvadoran Restaurants near Sylmar, CA

“Pupusas are delicious! I’ve tried many different restaurants in the valley and this one by far takes it. They are off of Foothill Blvd (in front of the Vons) Tuesday-Sunday. Hours vary from 9:30. Very affordable and they have an area where you can sit and eat. Also very clean, gloves are used to prepare your food.“

“First time eating here. I ordered 3 Pupusas Revueltas with a medium Horchata. The food was pretty good. The hot sauce they offered was okay, it could have been more spicy but it the did the job well. The Horchata did taste a little funny to me and also was kinda of chalky tasting. So that's why I took off one star from the overall score. Other than that, the food was very good. I really did need some comfort food and those Pupusas really hit the spot. Whenever I'm in the mood for Pupusas again, I'll stop by again.“

“My favorite chicken teriyaki takeout place.“

“Wow! Delicious Pupusas and Sopa de mariscos! I am a very critical Salvadoran when it comes to Pupusas and Salvadoran Food, with over 40 years of experience 😋 This Restaurant has definitely met my expectations. Specially cause the Pupusas are $1.99 Monday Thursday. Loved this place and will be eating here every time I come down to the valley.“

“The pupusas were delicious. They were the perfect thickness; there was plenty of filing, and the masa was not too thick. Cooked to perfection, they were not greasy at all. We enjoyed a nice selection of the different types offered. Our party included a Salvadoran who knows his pupusas. We also ordered a plate of rice, beans, and fried plantains. They were wonderful. We definitely will be going back. The staff were courteous and very helpful. Everything was clean and tidy inside of the restaurant.“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“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“

“la mejor comida del valle😋“

“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!“

“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.“

“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“

“The food is amazing, everything is fresh and made when you ordered, this is authentic Salvadoran food, the pupusas is a must have and the yuca frita is amazing, and the owner works really hard to make the experience in the restaurant a family experience. However there are some costumer who are very demanding and want everything on the spot, you need to understand the goodness take same to complete the sircle. If you went through the food on the spot otdeysge“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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 !!!“

“Ricas pupusas, antojitos salvadoreños y Pan.“

“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?.“

“We enjoy eating out. Yesterday we came to this magnificent restaurant which friends recommended to us. We enjoyed a delightful experience there with great meal and a professional crew and a talented cook. We put this restaurant in our list and we shall certainly go again very soon. We highly recommend.“

“excellent gallina soup.hand made tortillas.“

“Been here many times over the years and every time the service is topnotch, food is phenomenal and i always want more. I wish i can have some right now. A must stop for me

Vegetarian options: Several vegetarian options, beans and rice and cheese pupusas are well balanced source id vegetable proteins

Kid-friendliness: Family operation, kids welcomed“

“Very delicious pupusas! I especially enjoyed the chicharron & cheese and the jalapeno & cheese. Flavor is wonderful especially with a little of the pickled cabbage and salsa on top!
I also tried the Atol de Elote, which is a sweet corn drink, and loved it!
The service was also fantastic! The gentleman who helped me with my order was very kind and very informative about the menu
Would go back in a heartbeat!“

“The best pupuseria I’ve found so far. Authentic, comforting, and reasonably priced. I highly recommend!“

“They have a special that runs on Thursdays with pupusas revueltas 🔥👏😋, which love and appreciate. They dont give tiny pupusas because they're on special. They give you a good portion size one. I also get other pupusas and they're incredible as well, and the salsa is actually pretty impressive compared others. I'd definitely recommend their food. I always order mine to go and they're this sweet cashier who's customer service is top tier. Ill get her name next time 😉.“

“I found this little gem of a restaurant by accident, and I love it. They feature Mexican/Salvadoran/Central American foods in a clean, efficient atmosphere. If you order the handmade tortillas, they will be the thicker variety common to El Salvador, but the thinner Mexican style are also available.I love the dish menudo, and here it is available daily, not just Saturday and Sunday. In addition, the restaurant features a bakery, and a selection of delicious pan dulce is offered daily. Portions are large and prices are reasonable. I will be back many times.“

“The food used to be real bad but to my surprise it has greatly improved they must have hired a new cook! The place is very clean an so the restroom soccer games on flat screens you may have to wait for food but is all about the time of the day and how busy they are like any other place for this I give them four stars“

“Mi esposo y yo siempre vamos porq el personal es muy amable en especial les recomiendo el atole de elote es riquísimo vale la pena ir a comer al Roca Fuerte las pupusas deliciosas visiten y se convencerán q es cierto lo q digo“

“Was skeptical coming in, but now that I did, I was missing out. The food quality is amazing. Can't think of another place like this. Expect humble and casual which for the prize is expected. Can't stop talking about the food quality and flavor, it beats almost all places out there. Extra stars because my mom loves it too! Caldo de gallina is her favorite, and pupusas mixtas I ordered where delicious and perfect size!“

“Muy buena comida, y lindo lugar para hacer tus celebraciones“

“todo está cálida en pieza por el servicio de los trabajadores, y meseras,calidad. y terminan con una delicias, de comidas, y antojitos, delicioso 😋 😋 😋 😋 .........⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐......“

“This place is definitely a hole in the wall. It’s nothing fancy. But for those who know, it seriously looks just like grandmas kitchen and has that at home feeling to it. The service is desperately terrible but none of any of that matters because the food is ridiculously amazing! If you enjoy Salvadoran cuisine, you can catch someone’s grandma in the kitchen making pupusas and they taste insanely authentic and possibly the best I have ever had hands down. I can wolf down 4 “Revueltas” or “Queso con Loroco” with cheese oozing out of the sides and burnt crispy in a bliss of goodness. The sauce and cabbage that goes on top is incredible. This place is as home made Salvadoran as you might ever get without traveling to the suburbs of San Salvador and sitting at someone’s grandmas kitchen table. This is a must stop for anyone craving a good pupusa!“

“atol de elote muy rico el mejor“

“Sale of Salvadoran and Mexican food. I have only eaten cheese pupusas and scrambled pupusas, the one I liked the most was the cheese pupusa, I loved it and the scrambled pupusas are good. The banana empanadas with milk are delicious. There are very good fresh waters. There is variety and many other foods. Clean place and good service. I like it.“

“The pupusas are good, the pata soup is given to you without any nerve and pansa, just vegetables and soup that taste good, but that's why I won't buy the plantain empanadas again, they are terrible, I had to throw them away, they should improve the quesadillas if they are good and the pupusas.“
