“Muy buena comida y buen servicio“

“Amazing food! Although I ordered takeout this restaurant serves the best chips with guac hands down in all of NYC! the churrasco steak was 4/5 just because I was expecting a different taste but the steak was juicy nevertheless the rice and beans tasted really good. Other reviews are probably fake because my food tasted just fine I have nothing bad to say concerning this resteraunt definitely be ordering delivery again sometime soon“

“es un lugar muy lindo limpio y la comida buenísima“

“I’m a regular here and live on the block! The prices are unbeatable, despite having to go up the last couple years. The food is always perfect, the service is always friendly, and I love how many options there are! Leaving a review mostly so that the owner can see how much we want maduros as a pupusa filling option. I tried to a few months ago, but was told that it’s a popular request, but the owner won’t allow it even though maduros are already a menu item. So anyway, Owner, please please please please please just let us have maduro pupusas!“

“I love this place. Lovely and pleasant. The best chicken soup I’ve ever had. I order it every time I come here.“

“buena atencion, amabilidad, comida salio a tiempo sin mucha espera y la calidad fue buena. lo malo que me queda lejos para volver 😒. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.“

“Always a wonderful experience. It feels like you are walking in to a Family members house. A wonderful warm feeling of comfort, amd the popusas de chicharron con queso are GREAT! Don't forget to try the tamal de elote. Delicious dessert!“

“son las mejoress si las recomiendo“

“Good Salvadoran flavor, their typical dishes really taste like our land. The pupusas here are delicious and well done!
I think that the atmosphere and appearance of the place needs to be improved as it seems a little run down in appearance. The place could use a makeover to elevate its category, but I must emphasize that the food is definitely very good.“

“Everything was really good, from the food to the people. Really nice service, really polite and patience (i had dificulties to pay, since i didnt have cash) btw this is an ONLY CASH stablishment. But I gave 4 cuz of personal preference. The rice can be changed to a normal white rice. That rice is kind of not that tasty and it is damn pricy.

Parking: Not that many spots. I got lucky I got one right in front of it. But it has a 30 min parking spots.“

“❤️ everything there Foods amazing Services amazing Everything amazing“

“I enjoy the food and environment“

“I've been to a lot of Salvadoran Restaurants and El Vicentino is my favorite. The Carne asada was juicy and flavorful, the natural drinks were authentic, service was amazing, ambiance was clean and colorful. family friendly environment....I could go on and on... but it's better you just try it yourself to see what I'm talking about 👍 🇸🇻 🇺🇸“

“love the food and everybody friendly,always enjoy my meals“

“I’m sure everything here is good but the corn tortilla quesadillas are so great they’re all I order. I’m a world-class eater but can’t quite finish off the platter with three quesadillas! Res en adobo, chorizo, pastor are all consistently great filling options. Nice people, no frills decor.“

“Excellent service, my 4 years old daughter is very hard to Please, i when to different places to see if they can do my daughter’s cake and the answer was: I can try my best, not exactly but I can do it, and answers like that, i was not feeling comfortable about it, when I contact sweet Alicia, she just answer my question saying, “it’s going to be more beautiful than the picture”, she was right, my daughter’s reaction was a happy face, and she cannot believed that her cake was exactly the way she want it and it was delicious, I definitely recommend their services.“

“I called in for papusas and got a variety to try! I loved every single one but can highly recommend the papusas with pork and beans; it is definitely my new favorite dish. The wait was about 15 minutes after I called to place my order, which was not bad at all. The owner was very kind and gave us a slice of pizza to try for free, which was good as well. Overall, great experience, and I will be coming back soon!“

“Hands down this place gets all the stars!!! The food was out of this world, very authentic, you can tell it’s family owned, family recipe which tells me it’s all made with love.I walked in and was greeted by all of the staff. I already knew I wanted from the hot buffet, but I’m terrible with ordering food in any kind of authentic restaurants because I can’t say anything Spanish. I also was ordering in a confusing way because I just didn’t know how else to say what I wanted but the woman who helped me was fantastic! She was beyond patient with me and laughing and made me feel comfortable and not like the biggest pain in the butt. I did decide to pull out and use google translate because I knew it was me making things sound more complicated. She laughed, and that cleared up everything, and she even used it back to make me feel less silly which was the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen. I actually walked out with the biggest smile on my face because of that woman, she made my day.I’ve worked in the food business for over 20 years and in management and I have to say, you don’t find service like that anywhere anymore. If that was anywhere else I would’ve gotten a lot of attitude and frustration. I was so pleased and enjoyed my first experience so much that I can’t wait to go back.Even though it’s almost an hour from me, it’s totally worth the trip. Aside from the amazing service and friendly staff, the place was very clean, the food was out of this world, the portions were huge. I got for 2 people and after I got home it wound up feeding 3 people. I give them 10 ⭐️’s because 5 just isn’t enough.“

“Best Store In The Longwood Area Enough Said“

“Their pupusas are delicious but I still don’t know how to order and they hung up on me. What is the difference between Revueltas con Queso y Chicharron and Frijol, Queso y Chicharron? Someone please help me so I can order and not get hung up on. ??????“

“Food is always consistently delicious. I’ve ordered their food but when I’m on the go, I order their mix pupusas. And let me tell you, these people don’t mess around. They make sure everything is fresh. The tomato sauce is nice and thick. The cabbage taste crispy fresh. The restaurant itself is nice inside with lots of seating availability. This is the type a spot I recommend you try.“

“Easily one of the best Mexican spots in Westchester. We brought the kids and they couldn’t get enough of the tacos, pupusas, and tamales. Everything tasted fresh and homemade. The food is super flavorful and authentic, and the whole place has a friendly, laid-back vibe. Great for families or anyone looking for a solid Mexican spot. We’ll definitely be back.“

“los mejores ceviches de camarones y mixtos y las pupusas riquísimas se las recomiendo Buen servicio“

“(Translated by Google) It was not directly there that local is in the other premises but you can say that the restaurant has a very pleasant atmosphere and the food that is offered is good taste. It is good that it is in good place with the public transport in front and it is easy to get to the place ..(Original)No estaba directamente ahí ese local esta en los otros locales pero puede decir que el restaurante tienen un ambiente muy ameno y la comida que se ofrecen es de buen gusto .lo bueno que esta en buen lugar con el transporte colectivo de frente y es fácil de llegar al lugar ..“

“Great Spanish everything. Me encanta la actitud positiva que tienen cuando se trata hacia la gente. Carismati@s. The place is very hospitable and cozy. The food is great. Mostly Central American food as it is Salvadoran . You will love the Guatemalan chuchitos and Salvi pupusas..thumbs up!!“

“Su comida es muy buena y el ambiente es familiar para compartir solo o acompañado“

“can't go wrong. so delicious“

“We were a group of 5: 2 seniors, 2 adults and 1 child. The atmosphere is great, the food is delicious and the service excellent. We have eaten Ethiopian food many times and Nuria would not leave you disappointed. We had a wonderful experience. The kid said:” I could eat this kind of food every day”. This says it all.“

“Had a 10 hour layover so stopped off here for a late breakfast. I’m glad we did - we only had $20 between us but we split a breakfast meal and a couple of extra papusas. The food was delicious, tasted fresh and filling. I was especially impressed by how well you could eat as a vegetarian here.

We both left feeling satisfied despite only sharing a plate. It’s a shame the place was cash only and we were low only dollars as I really wanted to try their horchata and some of the refrescos in the fridge.

The place is small with only 3 tables but we managed to secure a place and the guy working there was friendly and prompt.

Will definitely try to check this place out again if I’m coming through Jamaica.

Vegetarian options: Beans, papusas, cheese, soup, plátano, frijoles, eggs“

“We ordered carnita tacos and the presentation was very good, although the meat was a little too salty, you could eat it, the atmosphere is like a bar where you can go to talk with friends but it is also familiar. In conclusion it is nothing wow but it is not the worst either so you can pass on the customer service is good.“

“The best seafood soup I have ever eaten!!! I could not stop raving to my colleagues about this place afterwards. Lots of various seafood items (shrimp, clams, crab, fish) - there was probably 300 g of protein if not 400 g in a delicious broth. Soup came with yellow rice on a side and freshly baked corn tortilla. I have never liked corn tortilla before this one (prefer the ones made from flour). The portion was $20, but it was two lunches for me. It took about 15 minutes to arrive once I placed an order so you need to have at least one hour for this place. I will be going back to try the other menu items.“

“Good food Pleasant atmosphere“

“Fantastic authentic Italian espresso bar with phenomenal sandwiches. There's a small Italian-sourced grocery section with pastas and sauces that are delicious and rare to find. They have fresh bread delivered daily and the cold meat and cheeses are delicious. Amazing family run service.“

“First timer here had a long Saturday night lol ordered HomeFries eggs and bacon and toast with a hot chocolate. I felt better within the first two bites. And the hot chocolate you can tell was super fresh. Not only was the food good you can tell it was made with love and amazing energy. If you’re looking for a good breakfast this is the top of all the competitors in the area! Will certainly order again!“

“I Was Stuck On A Bus For An Extra 30 Minutes After It Had To Detour Because Of An Accident Then Another Detour Because Of Construction On The Van Wyck Expressway. I Had To Go To The Bathroom And Catch A Connecting Long Island Bus. I Saw 2 Restaurants. I Went Inside La Playita. I Explained To The 2 Ladies Behind The Counter,I Just Had To Pee And I Would Purchase A Soda. I Thanked The Ladies And Caught My Long Island Bus.“

“Delicious food. I am notnfrom central America, so, we ask the waitress about some of the dishes. All shebdid was like say the name of the dishes. I can read that, so we asked what are they? She rolled her eyes and walked away passing us off to another waitress to take our order. I ended up having to Google some of the dishes. Wait staff weren't too nice. I guess you must be Guatemalan for them to be nice and all over you, or male for the first waitress to want to help as she was all over other male patrons. That was my only dislike, again the food was very good.“

“The chef here sees ingredients as opportunities for creativity. Every interaction satisfies, and every dish offers freshness and flavor. On top of that, employees never disappoint with their service. Their cooking approach demonstrates originality and every option has distinctive tastes. We're eager to experience this place again!“
