Follow up on my review: I called the store to tell them they sold me beef soup with no beef and their response was to say that wasn't possible and then she said it was a simple mistake, they asked me at what time I bought the soup, I asked what difference does it make there was no meet regardless of what time I bought it. Needless to say, they didn't solve anything, the person I spoke to was rude and didn't care at all. Wish I could say something better about them as I like to support small businesses but I will never go back there.First review: I've ordered the beef soup and they are very stingy with the meat. I got one today and there was absolutely no meet in it. I tried, the first time, to give them the benefit of the doubt but how are you going to picture and sell beef soup with no beef. Never again will I give them my money and will discourage anyone from wasting their money there.

Went here with my girlfriend and let me say, the food portions are extremely generous, and on top of that it tastes amazing, the fries were super crisp and seasoned properly, the Torta was MASSIVE and full of a variety of fillings, Pupusas did not disappoint, And the Horchata was some of the best i had, for $30 being able to feed me and my girlfriend AND still have leftovers. The service was also exceptional, the only minor complaint i have is the tables seem neglected but Who cares i just wiped it down, i would recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic hispanic food at a good price.

I gave this place a chance many times and the food is always bad; I am done wasting my money; I always end up throwing the food away; they don't know how to cook over there.

Unacceptable! Unbelievable, I ordered through uber eats and they sent this pollo con Tajada burnt soggy plantains they supposed to be crunchy but it was all soggy and disgusting I didn't even eat it the chicken was so dry this is not the chicken u supposed to use on this it was so dry and hard. Plus they even put the cup on a bag and spill it all of it how u gonna do that?

My wife and I came here hoping to find authentic Mexican and/or Salvadoran food. Sometimes, authentic doesn't mean good tasting, as in this case. The eatery was located in the back of the "supermarket". Supermarket is a misnomer here. It's a small grocery store with many Latino and Mexican items. The store was well organized and clean. The eatery was small in size and had 4 tables and 14 chairs. We ordered the Pan Con Pollo and the Taco Dorados. The Pan Con Pollo was a traditional Salvadoran chicken sandwich. It had white meat chicken with lettuce, tomato, cucumbers, pickled beets, marinated cabbage, carrots, and mayonnaise in a French sub roll. The menu states that it should also have contained onions, cauliflower, radish, and eggs. Those were missing. It came with an oily orange colored dipping sauce, which was probably the tomato consommé that the chicken was stewed in. It was a lightly flavored chicken broth with a hint of tomatoes and seasoning. Too weak in flavor. It made the bread completely soggy when you dipped it. This sandwich was OK tasting, but it could be better. Unfortunately, the chicken meat was NOT thoroughly checked for BONES. We found 6 bones in the meat while eating the sandwich. One piece completely shattered when I bit it. So, I spit it in the trash. That's why you'll see 5 pieces of bones in my picture. The Taco Dorados had 5 pieces of rolled crispy chicken tacos with a red salsa and marinated cabbage. The tacos were slightly crispy and not oily. The white meat chicken was somewhat dry with little flavor, even though there were specks of green herb present. The red salsa had a very mild flavor of red chiles and tomato. It tasted very diluted. There was no lime, acidity, salt, or peppery bite flavor. This was extremely disappointing. It's hard to believe that they don't know how to make flavorful salsa. The marinated cabbage had a few bits of carrots and lots of shredded cabbage. The marinade was slightly peppery with barely a hint of tanginess and salt flavor. If this was supposed to be curtido, then the marinade needed oregano, onion, vinegar (apple cider preferably), and a little sugar. This was incredibly bland. The order was called in and it was ready when we arrived. The service was friendly. The eatery was clean and tidy. The 2 star rating is due to the bones. That can cause a medical problem if a shard gets stuck in the digestive tract. They need to find a way to avoid this. The food needs a lot of improvement. We won't be returning to the eatery, but the grocery store is a possibility.

This place is a solid choice for Latin food. I ordered the sopa de res and two pupusas. Wow, I was surprised. Much meat in the soup and it was fall off the bone. Super delicious. I wish they added some spice on the side. The popusas were good but not great. The cabbage you get on the side was pretty amazing. I will order from this business again and so should you.

The worst pollo con tajadas a had ever eaten. I don’t know about other food, but don’t even attempt to trying it.???
10/10. I order from here often. Everything is hot and fresh I don't have pictures of everything but my favorites are Pollo en Crema, Costillas de Res, Parrillada Salvadoreña, Pescado Frito, Pupusas, Baleadas and Horchata. Highly recommend.

This place is great-- ordered two tacos and a carne asada plate from Grubhub. Everything is delicious, and being from Miami, I'm super picky about my Latin American food. Definitely check this place out or order on Grubhub.
