Had a great lunch here. Worth checking out, especially if you’ve never had Salvadoran cuisine. Was quite the experience.

The owner and staff were very nice and friendly, but the food was aggressively average. Nothing was particularly terrible, but nothing stood out either. Everything was bland, and the salsa was basically just tomato sauce. The margarita was overly sweet, with barely any trace of alcohol.

I'm usually pretty forgiving when it comes to restaurants if they have some redeeming quality, but this one was a total miss.

Food was perfectly seasoned.
Mango juice was delicious.
Fried plantain was tasty.
First time that we had tortilla soup and it was amazing.
Im Colombian but I love a good pupusa. Definitely recommended!

Good meal, friendly waitress, nice to eat on a terrace. Favorite part of the meal was pickled cabbage.

Came for a quick lunch and enjoyed our tacos. Service was quick and kind. We ate on the patio and enjoyed the bustle of the street.

As a Salvadorean, I'm embarrassed that this restaurant is even serving pupusas—they were awful! The curtido was sweet, and the salsa was just tomato sauce. It was truly disappointing. What's worse is that they're selling Salvadoran food without even knowing how to make it properly :(

None of the food my family and I tried was good. Nothing like the texture of Tamales is supposed to be and even their classic disk the papoussa was very off and unappealing. Chicken inside was blended and mixed and barely visible. In addition their pizza closely resembled frozen pizza with a few added toppings. Salad and sauce was also presented in Tupperware containers? When these issues were addressed the cook only took offence and began trying to justify everything stating that they had never had bad reviews and that everything was still full price. Although the experience overall was quite unpleasant the server was very kind and helpful.

Other comments are pretty relevant : the pupusas are ok but the food does not seem fresh.
I took a trio which contained a drink. The waiter listed the drink I took explicitly as part of the trio's options, and I was charged extra for it as a "special noon price". It was later that 7pm. Sneaky.
