El Comalito offers delicious and affordable food, especially known for their top-quality pupusas. The Latin-style packaging, although could be improved, adds to the experience. Despite a slightly cold atmosphere, the friendly staff and tasty food make up for it. Customers recommend trying a variety of dishes like tamales and nuegados, and the portion sizes are decent. Some reviews mentioned that the pupusas are a bit salty but still good, and that maintaining consistency would make the place even better. The food overall is very good, though a few customers noted issues with service, such as forgetting orders or limited kitchen hours. Recently, there was concern over the rising price of pupusas, which some felt was too high, leading them to consider other options. Overall, El Comalito remains a great spot for authentic Latin American cuisine, with an average cost of around $20 per person for larger plates.
