The service is fantastic and the food is as authentic as it gets. They don’t have to load their food with sodium to make it flavorful. The ingredients are fresh and it tastes home made. I LOVE bringing my family here.

El Pulgarcito is a restaurant known for its delicious and authentic Salvadorian food, offering a variety of dishes that are all homemade, including their tortillas. The papusas, chicken enchiladas tostada, and pork and cheese popusa are highly recommended. The menu also features pupusas revuelta, stuffed with refried beans, cheese, and pork rind, served with slaw and tomato sauce, which many customers find delicate and delicious. The homemade tortillas are corn, similar to masa but a bit thick, not like typical corn tortillas. The enchiladas are described as being like a chalupa but much better, a favorite part of the meal. The staff is friendly and attentive, providing great service and assistance to customers. The restaurant is a great choice for those with dietary restrictions, as many dishes are made of corn. Visitors appreciate its authentic flavors and often recommend it as a good alternative to chain restaurants, especially for breakfast and lunch.
