I've been here a number of times and gotten a variety of different things. All of them great. Highly recommend the pupusas! Really like their beans as well.

I got take out.. everything was hot and fresh. I got the chicken Milanese and was excellent. I also added the cilantro onion pepper cup which helped with added spice and freshness.

Wow! If you want amazing food, spectacular margs and fantastic service you HAVE to eat here! It started with our waitress, she was warm, friendly and so helpful with menu suggestions. There were three of us and we each order something different. All three of us loved our food and we each also got a different margarita... wow! They were so good, and we all know our margaritas:) We are visiting as we help move our son into DC and this will be a regular place to visit when we come back to the area.

I love this place! The food is great, the service is great, and the prices are great. I just had breakfast there - Huevos rancheros - and it hit the spot. Dinner is also always spot on. Whether you're local or traveling, this is the place.

Ordered to go. They took my order but did not place all my orders in their system. I even tipped 20% over bill. Only found out after leaving the restaurant. I’m very disappointed.

Hubby wanted to try Salvadorian food and found this restaurant with good reviews. The restaurant was tiny with only few tables inside and few seats at the small bar. Lucky for us, we were immediately. Since we never had Salvadorian food, we asked the server for recommendations.

- pork & chicken pupusa & chicken tamale: both pupusas were good. Slight crispy on the crust yet soft. The pork and chicken fillings were well seasoned. The chicken tamale had soft & savory dough and the chicken was good. The refried bean was simply delicious! The rice was succulent and good.
- milanese chicken: chicken was tender and the coating was crispy. The black bean was good and well seasoned. The fried plantains were delicious!
- horchata: it was very sweet but it had good strong cinnamon flavor.

We had a great meal here. The Salvadorian food was new to us as we are visiting from the UK. The lady very kindly explained the different options and portion sizes. Everything was delicious and the service and atmosphere was spot on. Would 100% recommend.
