We got take out and the food was well presented, well packed and tasted amazing, fresh and made with care. It was definitely a good pick-me-up after a hard day! We'll definitely be returning for more dishes.

El Faro Mexican and Salvadorian absolutely delivered. I ordered the molcajete with chicken, beef, and shrimp, and it came out sizzling, packed with flavor, and paired perfectly with a spicy, well-balanced salsa and fresh, warm corn tortillas. I also tried the pupusas with chicharrón, queso, and frijoles—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and loaded with goodness.

Everything tasted fresh, portions were generous, and the service was quick and friendly. And in case anyone’s keeping score, I’m still proudly undefeated in my lifetime streak of never having a bad meal and never eating anything I wouldn’t happily order again—El Faro helped keep the streak alive.

The absolute best coffee and pancakes I have ever had. But the experience would be much more pleasant if the temperature inside wasn't so hot. It should be cooler especially during the summer.

I asked for enchiladas tejanas and got some watery non red sauce instead.

The Customer Service was great. The cook came up as I was being checked out to ensure everything looked OK. I was looking to get the happy plate, that's what southerners call it, some may call it Arroz Con Pollo which consists of chicken, queso, rice and peppers but they didn't have that or queso(white) cheese.
