Papi Ricko Latin Kitchen & Lounge Latin American •
1226 Central Ave A, Charlotte - 8.97 miles

“Wow Papi Rico has many delicious plates but the standout is without question their tacos trompo al pastor. The pork is perfectly marinated, tender, and carved fresh with just the right balance of smoky and sweet flavors. Each bite is layered with authenticity—from the juicy meat to the subtle char and the bright pop of pineapple that brings it all together.
The tortillas are warm and fresh, the toppings are simple yet flavorful, and everything tastes thoughtfully prepared. On top of that, the service truly elevates the experience—Regina and Natalia were attentive, friendly, and made us feel genuinely welcomed.
If you are looking for some of the best al pastor tacos around, Papi Rico absolutely delivers and is well worth the visit.
Great exceptional service from Regina and Natalia, thank you ladies!“

“If you’re looking for authentic Salvadoran food in Charlotte, El Pulgarcito De America on Central Ave is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm and welcoming—simple, cozy, and focused on what really matters: great food and friendly service. It’s flavorful, affordable, and consistently satisfying.

The menu is packed with traditional favorites, but the standout dishes are definitely the pupusas—thick, handmade, and loaded with flavor. Whether you go for pork and cheese or try a combination plate with tamales and empanadas, everything is made fresh and comes in generous portions. The flan is also a must-try—rich, creamy, and the perfect way to end your meal.

The service is known for being kind and attentive, making you feel right at home whether it’s your first visit or your tenth.

Overall, El Pulgarcito De America is one of those places that might look modest from the outside but delivers big on taste and authenticity. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the Central Ave area.“

I lost my phone in Charlotte and and Uber driver that didn’t speak English found it walking down the road. Since he only spoke Spanish I went to the bar and Nohemi not only talked to him she negotiated the return of my phone. NOT ONLY THAT. She came out side in the 22 degree weather to help me translate with the guy!
If you come here ask for her, take care of her ,
My faith in humanity is restored!!!!
Thank you Nohemi!!!“

“As it was my first time going, I wasn't sure what to expect. It's a fried chicken establishment much like KFC and Bojangles. The difference is that the chicken is, IMO, better than the competition. Better (lightly) seasoned, and not overly greasy. As a side dish, I tried the plantains which I never had before. Not bad! And I guess that because I never tried them, I was unprepared for the flavor and texture. I, personally would like for them to open a location in Monroe, NC.“
