Honduran Restaurants near Silver Spring, MD

“It’s a really nice place to have a drink or eat with the family“

“Absolutely INCREDIBLE food. The BEST pupusa we have ever had. SO many amazing flavors! To the people who are complaining about the service in their reviews. El Salvadorans are much calmer and slower paced that hyper-demanding Americans. They are not in a rush. They take their time and produce high quality creations. Give them a chance to do that. Let them do their thing and experience how wonderful it can be. Sit back, relax, enjoy the friendly conversation and the music and the televised soccer matches. Their food is all made from scratch. Let them work the way they need to work to make something special for you. TAKE YOUR TIME and enjoy it. The food is only one part of the total experience. Absorbing yourself in a different way of being for a bit is good for you, makes you more well-rounded, and helps you to be a better person.“

“Gets 5 stars for the taste, quality and vast selection of food. It’s the “local’s favorite spot”, so you know it’s good. Be sure to order your food to take it and enjoy at home though because it’s definitely not the type of place you want to sit down to eat (you’ll see why when you’re there)Don’t forget to order yourself an Atol de Elote, it’s the best thing ever! (Warm winter drink of sweet creamy corn with a few kernels) trust me - you will be hooked on it.“

“🍽️ Benito’s: Incredible, Authentic Honduran Food – A Total Gem! A Must-Visit Central American Flavors

If you haven’t been to Benito’s yet, put it at the very top of your list. My little brother took me here for the first time, and it’s safe to say he completely knocked it out of the park with this recommendation. From the moment you see the menu, you know you’re in for an authentic, flavor-packed experience.

Here is the breakdown of the incredible spread we had:

The Main Event: Bistec Encebollado / Fajita Platter
The star of the table was a beautifully executed steak platter, packed with vibrant colors and rich, savory aromas.

The Meat: Tender, perfectly seasoned strips of steak seared to perfection.

The Mix: Sautéed with a generous mix of sweet onions, and crisp red, green, and yellow bell peppers that added the perfect crunch and sweetness.

The Sides: Served alongside a flawless mound of seasoned orange rice, a fresh, crisp salad topped with creamy avocado, diced tomatoes, radishes, and a squeeze of lime to cut through the richness.

The Ultimate Comfort: Pupusas
You cannot walk into Benito’s without ordering the pupusas. We got them served hot off the griddle with that signature, beautiful golden-brown char. They were thick, comforting, and stuffed generously. They came paired exactly as they should be:

Curtido: A crisp, tangy, lightly pickled cabbage slaw that adds the ultimate refreshing crunch.

Salsa Roja: A smooth, warm tomato salsa that ties every single bite together.

The Extras
To round out the meal, we had fresh, warm tortillas tucked in foil, a side of rich red beans topped with crumbled cotija cheese, and a sampling of vibrant green and orange hot sauces to kick the heat up a notch.

The Verdict: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Benito’s delivers massive flavor, generous portions, and that unmistakable taste of authentic, home-cooked comfort food. Shoutout to my little brother for introducing me to this gem. I will absolutely be back for round two!“

“Friendly service! Try the chicken baleada! Pair it with fried plantains and guanabana!“

“la mejor comida catracha de el área“

“Sapodillas in SE DC delivered a meal that felt like a celebration on a plate. Every dish came out vibrant and full of flavor, and the presentation had that quiet elegance that makes you pause before diving in. The service matched the food—warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Samantha, the owner, was especially delightful. She moved through the dining room with an easy brightness, checking in on guests as if hosting a dinner party in her own home. Sapodillas is truly a standout in the DMV and absolutely worth the visit. Try everything but don’t miss the Oxtails and the Dulce De Leche Pancakes.“

“Love, Love the food, the only downside is that they change cooks every so often, and the food doesn't taste quite as good. I really appreciate that they have one waitress, who is very attentive. I can't remember her name at the moment but she deserves good remarks for our customer service. And making me keep patronizing the business, even after I was disappointed in receiving a bad meal. She's a very good asset to this business. She probably knows who I'm speaking of. And that's the only reason I'm giving the restaurant a four star, because it's like up and down.You never know what the food is gonna be like on any random day. Don't get me wrong. When the food is good. It's good. And when it's bad it's bad.“
