The pupusas were amazing!!! I had 4 different types and they were all yummy. I'll definitely be coming back to try out the tacos. Give this spot a try. 🤤

Reasonable priced empanadas. Chicken emp is great, but the beef…too much going on there. Beef empanada got corn, carrot, potato?!, red pepper…like, nah. Just do all beef or a bit of onion but why all these veggies?

Too expensive , small portions . 3 tacos and 2 pulidas 23.00

Paid $40 for two veggie burritos and orders of rice, pinto beans and pico. It was not worth it, nor was it good.

Their veggie burrito were supposed to come with veggies (seems like a frozen blend), cheese, beans, lettuce, sour cream and guacamole. After getting home, it seemed like there was no cheese, guacamole or sour cream. Halfway in, we saw the tiniest bit.

They were out of yellow rice which is odd. The portion of pico was very small and the beans had no flavor except for sazon packets.

I called to ask what comes in the burrito and they let me know and offered to remake tbem in exchange for the original ones. I agreed but about 30 seconds later I called back to decline because I didn’t want them to waste their food and I didn’t want to walk back in the rain. They declined my call 2 times.

At the end of the burrito, the bean liquid was leaking out making everything a mess.

Excellent food and friendly service! A must in the neighborhood.

Stopped by Irma’s Cafe an hour before closing, but unfortunately, almost all the food was already gone. The only thing left? A couple of tacos—literally the only option. The staff was already gearing up to close, so the whole experience felt a bit rushed.

That being said, the tacos we did get were actually really good! Now I just need to go back at a better time to try more of the menu. Lesson learned—go early!

Excellent place to eat, very friendly and clean in addition to the authentic Mexican seasoning, the beef broth and the chilaquiles are the best! I loved the beef steak too

Super disappointed… they offer a pupusas special every Thursday, they advertise closing at 9, it is the 3rd week in a row that i come to place a to go order around 8, and that the lady at register tell me they are closed, with a smile… i am not sure what to make of it, but it is almost insulting… oh well

Such a great mom and pop restuarant that has both delicious Salvadorian and Mexican food. Went here with friends and we each tried a mix of their pupusas, they took a bit to come out but they were clearly made fresh and well worth the wait. We also had their tacos and guacamole, so flavorful and filling. Our server was attentive and very kind. Great reasonable prices for the high quality. Limited indoor seating but can take it to go. Will definitely be returning

I’m in love I’m obsessed ! Went here for a TOO GOOD TO GO order . Got the chicken with rice ! It was pretty good. I saw they had a deal on Thursday 4 pupusas for $10 . I was SOLD ! Got full from the chicken & rice order which was $4.99 on the TGTG app. So I didn’t get to eat the pupusas. Heated them up the next day & they were so cheesy and beany . I got the cheese & bean ones. I think their pupusas are amazing ! The curtido was so good I could eat it alone. I’m coming back every Thursday . My grandmas name is Irma too !
