Very dissapointing experience. Decided to try this place for the first time. I don't know how authentic "Salvadoran" or "Columbian" this food is. All the meat was cold, sitting in containers for who knows how long. Rice and beans lukewarm and overcooked. There was completely no seasoning. Portion very small for the price. I always try to support small independent vendors vs franchise but will not go back.

We loved everything we ordered! Highly recommend this restaurant for the most delicious food including our 3 apps and the Parrillada for 2. So much food we had lots to take home! We will be back - Raul was awesome and service was excellent. Can’t wait for the daily specials.
Friendly staff but the quality of the food doesn't match the price. The steak in the bowl I had isn't freshly cooked and doesn't look at all like the photo in the menu. It just tastes like a typical fast food restaurant, but more expensive. Very disappointing experience, won't be returning.

The food was not good at all. Ordered pupusas and it was not cooked enough raw dough. Salsa was very bland and to watery colslaw smelled not fresh And the lady that attended us forgot to give the coleslaw and salsa had to ask and she was not impressed customer service needs to improve. First and last time my family goes there.

A bunch of yucas but a small portion of chicharrón ? For 14 dollars ??
The bandeja Paisa is underwhelming and straight up bad. $24.99 for a portion that is small compared to the price. The rice and beans that it comes with are bland without any sort of spice on it and its not called "chimichiri" its chimichurri.

I was entirely shocked and disappointed by my experience at this location in the market. After looking online and seeing the various papusa options they had on their menu, I showed up, and ordered two varieties of papusas (jalapeño papusas and chicken papusas). The person working was extremely rude and told me they were only serving bean papusas. I asked when they’d have other papusas available and he said they won’t. I said I had looked up the menu and that was the reason I had come, and he said “maybe Friday we will have jalapeños. But we only have bean. That’s it. Only bean.” I decided to order 3 papusas anyway since I had come all that way for papusas, despite them not being the kind I came for. The amount I was charged did not reflect the prices listed on the menu but after all that back and forth, I left with my papusas. The whole experience felt very condescending and it made me feel as though I was causing trouble for this employee. Some of the worst service I have received in this city. The papusas were tasty, though.

Ordered once last week, you forgot half our order. Pupusa was good so we thought we would try again. Today pupusa was stale, you forgot the sides for them. (Salsa and slaw)We won’t be ordering from you guys again. What a horrible experienceTook over an hour to delivery as well.We are using nacho salsa from ring a wing.

I always wanted to try Uruguayan food, and lucky to find one in London, Ontario as there should have a Taste of Uruguay in this city. Asada and South American cuisine is quite underrated when it comes to international food besides Italian, Japanese, North American (US and Canadian), Vietnamese or Chinese. I got the Uruguayan dish that is around $15.00; and it has the steak, French fries or chips along with the salad. I recommend the Chimichurri on the steak as it is popular sauce in Argentina and Uruguay as I would highly recommend especially you are eating South American cuisine. I don’t know what the salad is called; if you choose the Uruguayan dish. I like the salad a lot and it is so refreshing a lot better than just Caesar or Greek salad. They do have empanadas, pupusas and other Latin American dish including Brazilian and Canadian. I recommend this Latin American restaurant to anyone in London, Ontario. I would try the Carne Asado again and Uruguayan food. They do have Colombian, Peruvian and Central American as well as Mexican. I will return back here in the future. Gracias for the best taste!Parking: Parking is limited near the Covent Garden and there are some spots near the Ontario building just a couple blocks or anywhere under 500 metre walking distance as some parking available may require to pay in the metre or risk of getting a parking ticket. Best to plan ahead before coming here to avoid any hassle of parking and other unexpected stress in downtown London, Ontario. Please be aware of the homelessness or some aggression in this area as try your best to stay safe outside in public.
