La Salvadorena is a small, homey restaurant serving authentic Central American cuisine. The pupusas are a standout dish, particularly the Cheese and Chicharon pupusas, and the chicken and cheese pupusa is also highly praised. The milanesa torta is another popular choice among customers. Some dishes, like the Salvadorean breakfast, have faced criticism due to spoiled cream and lackluster flavors. The atmosphere is cozy, although it may feel cramped, with a strong smell near the kitchen. The parking lot is small, making entry and exit a bit tight. While there are concerns about sanitation and cross-contamination for those with food allergies, the affordable prices and friendly staff make it worth a visit. Mrs. Doris, one of the owners, is noted for her delightful personality, and the staff are welcoming and attentive. The restaurant offers flavorful, homemade dishes that are a hit for those seeking authentic Central American flavors, including delicious menudo.
