El Papaturro is a restaurant that offers delicious pupusas, seafood platter, chicharrón with yuca, and refreshing fruit water. The fruit salad drink is particularly refreshing and not too sweet. The cheese and loroco pupusa is tasty, but could have more cheese. The cabbage (curtido) has a slight spicy kick. The restaurant is known for serving traditional Salvadoran food that locals enjoy, with very affordable prices. Parking is easy, and the place is wheelchair accessible and family-friendly.
Recent visitors appreciated the good pupusas revueltas and the pan de pollo, though some miss the traditional cabbage instead of lettuce and steamed veggies on top. Many look forward to returning for breakfast plates and seafood soup with crema. Some noticed that the cheese used in the pupusas has a different flavor than expected, but overall, the food remains great value. Service can be improved, as sometimes staff do not return after serving, and the cream with the corn tamal could be more flavorful.
