Salvadoran Restaurants near Wilmington, CA

“exelente y calidad de comida“

“Great clean and well run spot in Wilmington! Delicious and freshly made authentic salvadoran food. The quesadilla, sweet bread, served nice and warm made in house is a must. We had the mojarra ? frita and chicharrones entomatados served with nice refried red bean, rice, and freshly hand made tortillas. Family restaurant with spotless facilities. Will be back!!“

“Muy buena comida me encanta comer ayi siempre q vamos para este lugar entramos a comer también hay muy buenas pupusas aserqense al Restorán estela“

“This a great place for pupusas.I had both a loroco and a revuelta pupusa. The loroco was very cheesy and had a very nice light veggie taste from the blossoms. The revuelta was full of flavor and not overly salty.The cortiodo had a nice bite to it and a pleasant balance between the herbs and vinegar.I also had a tamale de elote, it tasted very fresh. It came with crema and beans, and was a nice finish to my lunch.I think they make their own tamarindo Agua fresca - it had a nice tartness without being overly sweet.“

“Food is really good, delicious popusas!“

“Anytime we come to the LA area, a stop at El Metapaneco is absolutely mandatory. The food and family atmosphere is top notch. The pupusa's are hands down the best I have ever tasted, and I married into a Salvadorian family! If you like pupusa's, you'll LOVE El Metapaneco!“

“Buenísimo!!! Lo recomiendo . Un buen lugar y buena comida .“

“Personally, I love it, only that a couple of times they forget the tortillas and another two times they gave me a thigh with the bone peeled from the leg. Someone ate the chicken. I didn't want to complain because the food is good.

Kid-friendliness: The food is very good“

“Everything was very delicious, good service, good atmosphere, I really recommend it.
I have seen the reviews of some dissatisfied people. What happens is that there are people who want everything quickly, they are bad and they make excuses for everything. Remember this is a hot food restaurant.
It's not junk and fast food“

“The pupusas are great. The black beans super delicious and the platanos fritos.
I called ahead for pick up it took about 20 mins. Food is great will be coming back to try there other stuff on the menu. Totally recommend this place.
Parking is limited. I parked on the street.“

“The lady knows my voice! She automatically says Hola Josefina! Yesterday, she made me a lupus with cheese and CALABASITAS! She makes tamales. The chicken ones are so good. I bought a dozen at 10 am. took them home by 300pm they were gone. She takes orders ANYTIME and makes hundreds of them for CHRISTMAS! I love her!“

“Yum!! We came here on the recommendation of a friend and we were not disappointed!There were a couple of people at tables waiting for food when we arrived and there was plenty of seating.My son ordered chicken tacos, I ordered papusas, and the people we were with ordered papusas as well.The food was delicious!! My son loved his tacos and the papusas were amazing!We'll be back!“

“Healthy simple food.I like it just the way it is. I got the #1 ejotes con huevo; scrambled eggs, green beans, onion, tomato & bell pepper; accompanied with queso fresco, beans, crema, avocado slice, and thick corn tortillas. Fresh, simple and not heavy. Plus the price is also fair. If we ALL ate good simple food vs fast food chain, we all would be better off“

“Had the Carne Asada plate with beans, rice, and a salad. The Service was exceptional!! Food waa great as well. The Jamaica was the best ill ever taste!! I definately will return to try a different plate.

Parking: Has no problem(s) with finding parking .

Wheelchair accessibility: Now that i realize iy, the front door did seem a bit narrow but i coukd be wrong, so ill leave this as not sure.“

“When you’re craving authentic pupusas in the South Bay area, this is the place to be. It is a very modest place that offers made to order food, always warm and fresh.

We ordered the Revuelta Pupusas and a side of plantains. It definitely hit the spot. I appreciate the work that went into making it. It is evident in their food.

Quality food can't be rushed. Yes, there's a bit of wait time. So do something to pass the time. To avoid the wait time, you may want to phone in your order for pick up.“

“The food is good and decently priced.I like the fact that you can get Salvadorian dishes or Mexican.Since it's located in a lower-income area, the atmosphere is not even mid-tier.Don't let that discourage you.I enjoyed the chilaquiles with a side popusa.“

“It was my second time having food from El Salvador and the food here was better than most stuff I’ve ever had in my life. Everything was super delicious. The fried plantain was very soft and sweet, just how I like it. The ingredients on the breakfast plate complemented each other very well. The chicken tamal was amazing and the pupusa had so much flavor that I was wondering where all that flavor was coming from. The staff was also very friendly and helpful suggesting the most traditional and popular dishes. Definitely wanting to come back. Thank you for your hospitality!“

“(Translated by Google) The attention of the beautiful girls and the owner is the best! ... The delicious food ! I 100% RECOMMEND THIS PLACE(Original)La atención de las chicas lindas y el dueño es lo mejor ! ... La comida deliciosa ! RECOMOENDO 100% ESTE LUGAR“

“The atmosphere is quiet and there is a table for billiards and jukeboxes with a tremendous sound! Isabel is a beautiful person, very kind and courteous, I used a friend called El Negro (Good vibes) my experience was very good here I recommend this place if you are looking for shade by night...“

“the best food at the best service totally recommendable La mejor comida al mejor servicio totalmente recomendable“

“I was in town so I dropped by this little hidden gem. The food was authenticity delicious. I loved that they focused on Mexican and Central American cuisines. I had the Mexican Breakfast and my husband the Guatemalan Breakfast. Both were good. The staff were friendly and polite. Place is a bit hidden in a strip mall, definitely worth a visit.“

“Love this local spot for authentic Central American cuisine. Pupusas are always on point and my Dad lives their Caldo de Gallina. Always fresh and beyond delicious ? Love the plantain empanadas, they are a must try!!! Great for catering orders, too.“

“All good but I went for some chicharron with cheese and what I disliked is that... 1-they have a lot of fat 2- they leave the pupusas on the grill for a long time which makes them toast, and number 3- I think they put a lot of salt or a lot of seasoning to the pork rinds since I tried them and I did like them but it did feel like they had a lot of salt and then since it has cheese, the cheese has salt I mean you should look at that in the pork rinds with cheese ??“

“The food was great, service not so great my server will take forever to check on tables and make sure if everything was good . Also when I asked for something she will forget. The place inside was so hot they need air condition or at list a fan. I recommend to call for a pick up order instead do not dine in.“

“Excelente todo el menú pero las pupusas 10 de 10 .“

“Muy buena comida y económica“

“It's a very mom and pop shop, but they are worth a visit!
I've only had the pupusa so far, but I am excited to try their other dishes as everything smells extraordinary.
The pupusa were cooked perfectly, with that little bit of crispy edges! So good!
Their curtido was really fresh too! I normally like a pickle curtido but theirs was really fresh and nice!
The salsa roja was really nice too.
Everything made sense together and was quite delicious!
I can't wait to try more and thank you so much!“

“The food is good, the service and atmosphere are not, be careful, check the receipt when you pay the 24dls that they had to charge, they charged me 257.00 and to get the money back I had to go several times until they returned it to me after 2 weeks.“

“Ordered Sopa de Patas ...Well condimented as it should be .All ingredients accounted for : according to childhood/teenage memories of my favorite before mentioned soup .A large party ( 18 ) was to my left.Given the waitresses the benefit of the doubt for somewhat SLOW service .Why they were playing Mexican music in a 100% Salvadoran restaurant ?!?!?!?“

“Order Three Cheese Popusas
Delicious!!!
But... The Curtido Not Fresh Is Fresh Because It Has Been Refrigerated For Days!!!!
The Sauce Is Still Not Fresh From Days And Without Taste....
It's been several times now that Boy they put the curtido and the sauce on me and I don't even try them...
But.. The Very Delicious Popusas“

“Customer service very welcoming“

“My first time trying the pupusas and they were amazing! I got the revuelta, queso con loroco, and calabaza, they were all big and filled with the tasty filling. I also got the Salvadoran horchata and it was the perfect amount of sweetness. Really sweet service, I would come back.“

“The best pupusas I have ever had! Lot's of cheese and very fresh tasting. One pupusa is actually enough to fill you up but, since they are soo good you will want to have a second one!
Will definitely come here again to try all the different pupusas they have in their menu“

“Food is so fresh and delicious, I love their pollo en crema, pupusas, chilaquiles, garnachas, café de olla, atol de elote, omg I Can keep going but the point is you must try it!!!!“

“Food is very good all the time only down side for some would be the wait time but it's made fresh I highly recommend it

Parking: Alot

Kid-friendliness: Pretty good

Wheelchair accessibility: Its next to a wheelchair access sidewalk and 2 big doors for wheelchairs“

“Delicious pupusas I recommend it 100% 4 years ago I published this because they were the best pupusas in long beach, unfortunately they are no longer the best, I arrived a month and a half ago and saw a chow, it seems that a customer was arguing with someone in the kitchen apparently for gossip, sorry but that is a restaurant and they must behave in their work, but that is nothing I ordered some pupusas and they looked like tortillas, I will not visit this place anymore, I hope they improve everything“
