Went with my mom and husband and had a delicious lunch! We all got fresh fruit juices that really hit the spot. I got the beef enchiladas and a side of plantains with sweet scream -- both were so delicious and authentic. My mom got a veggie burrito when she said was the best in the county! Definitely will go again :)

I came in on a recommendation from a coworker. This location was in a central location. The place was clean and the staff was super friendly. It was a great choice to go and I will return. The berria tacos and horchata hit the spot.

Love. Food was delicious, the server was sooo lovely, felt like a NYC bodega slash restaurant. We enjoyed it and look forward to coming back.

I didn’t bother taking a photo when the food arrived but trust it’s yummy.

I got food there for the first time yesterday! I ordered tacos carnival, 3 leches dessert and Papusa. I inhaled papusa in the car. The food was absolutely amazing , and it's pretty cheap, compare to other restaurants. The lady was very welcoming. Definitely will go back. Recommend 100%.

Amazing meal. I live in Little Salvador in Boston, surrounded by great Salvadorean food, and this place stacks up against any of the best places here. Everything is fresh and delicious. Very affordable with great service. Lo recomiendo cien por ciento. We

Delicious food and awesome customer service

Got a traditional vegetarian Savi plate plus cheese pupusa and fries on the side. The crema was very unique and cheesy, the tomato salsa, & salsa verde were very good. The maduros were cooked to perfection.

Also enjoyed fresh watermelon juice with limes and ice tea. Friendly service, not long wait time, & clean space! It’s nice they had grocery items available for sale. Will return!!!

I love love love, La Placita!! They have the most authentic tacos and pupusas in the Berkshires. I was disappointed to hear that they would be closing their location on North St. However, their new space on Wendell Ave is super quaint and cozy to spend your lunch break or early dinner snack. disappointed, if you want something fresh, they've got aguafrescas are always made to order and tasty to enjoy in their outdoor patio space. I'm delighted to have la placita as a little space of Latino Love. Welcome to the neighborhood!

The food was great until U found a bug in my food once. Couldnt go back ever again

For anyone who craves decent Mexican and El Salvadoran food, this is about the only option in Pittsfield, and it's really good. The owner-chef really cares about his customers and the food he makes, and it really shows. I don't think there is a dish on the menu that we've ordered and didn't like. They are also great with to-go orders, which are always still piping hot when we get home. And the in-restaurant market is fun for getting some authentic ingredients for cooking our own Latin food at home.

For those who aren't familiar with El Salvadoran food, I recommend being adventurous. Don't know what a papusa is? Order some -- they are delicious. Never tried fried plantains? Don't miss out on Placita Latina's, served fresh and hot with a side of crema. And the standard Mexican fare is above-average as well -- we love their street tacos, empanadas, and enchiladas.

We did encounter a couple of hiccups as Placita Latina first got off the ground. One was that we sometimes had to wait a long while for our meals, even when things weren't busy. Another was that the meats were occasionally very salty -- much more so than when we visited before or after. But those minor hiccups have not stopped us from returning there frequently -- or from recommending it to friends. (And, FYI, everyone we've recommended Placita Latina to tell us they are very happy that we did!)

Kuddos and thanks to everyone at the restaurant who has made our visits there "muy especial." ;-)

I have not dined in yet, but I have had exquisite food delivered. Everything I have tried so far has been delicious. I can compare to other similar restaurants and Placita Latina Restaurant & Market is, hands down, the best. From the Chimichangas to the Taco de Birrias and authentic style tacos, I am hooked. I have tried other styles of some of the same dishes elsewhere (on days they are closed) and they cannot measure up. I highly recommend trying and make sure to thank them for their delicious food! You won’t regret it.

The service is good, food probably the worst Mexican food I have ever tasted. Bland flavor needs a lot of improvement. Small tacos, barley any meat and one tortilla.
