Excellent pupusas, a bit expensive at 5ea but plenty of filling and cooked well. Also sampled the plato mixto, the steak, chicken, and shrimp were cooked to perfection. Can't say enough good things
This place is great. Pupusas are delicious. It’s cozy
Really good food and amazing ambient, the service is really good and at the ends very good price.

Carmelitas Restaurant offers a delightful mix of Mexican and Salvadoran cuisine, creating a perfect marriage of cultures. Guests praise the delicious eggs rancheros, camarones ala diabla, and chilaquiles rojos con huevos estrellados. The enchiladas verde are also highly recommended. This neighborhood gem has a welcoming atmosphere and great service, serving comforting dishes that live up to the hype. The pupusas are fantastic, fresh, and stuffed just right, dripping with bright, zippy house sauce. The carne asada and tacos, especially the al pastor and carnitas tacos, are top picks. Recently, customers enjoyed barbacoa and chicken tamales, all outstanding. The restaurant is a top choice for flavorful dishes at reasonable prices, with warm and genuine service that encourages return visits. They also serve a wide variety of drinks, with the fresh horchata being a highlight. The space features a bright yellow facade, mismatched vintage plates, and an iconic sauce bottle, making it a comfortable and clean environment.
