We came here for Valentine's day and I understand it gets busy but everyone around us got their food before us, even people who ordered half an hour after us. Not only that but none of the servers came over to check on us while we were waiting for food. The kid who was bussing the tables was the only one who checked on us like twice.

The restaurant is beautifully decorated for the holidays which makes everything so much fun! The food was fantastic! I wanted something local and considered safe and this fit both of those wants. I think the price of the food is also amazing! I love that the staff is kind and friendly! Will definitely stop by more often

Delicious pupusas and at a great price, my wife and I come all the time!

Used to go at least once a week and had the most exquisite Salvadoran food ever. Now the place sucks, prices seem unevenly matched for the plates and their specials are all scrambled egg dishes. Miss the original owners and recipes.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ El Mexsal: Where Flavor Throws a Fiesta 🌮🎉
El Mexsal doesn’t just serve food—it serves vibes. From the moment you walk in, the smells alone let you know you’re about to have a very good time. The food comes out hot, fresh, and packed with bold flavors that clearly didn’t come from a shaker labeled “mild.”
The menu has all the classics done right—tender meats, perfectly seasoned rice and beans, and salsa that makes you keep reaching for “just one more chip.” Portions are generous, prices are fair, and every plate looks like it was made with pride (and a little love).
The staff is friendly, fast, and makes you feel like a regular even on your first visit. Whether you’re there for a quick lunch, family dinner, or margaritas with friends, El Mexsal delivers every single time. Come hungry, leave happy, and start planning your return before you’re done eating. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🌶️🍹
