Peak customer service, never experienced it as good as this. A MUST try and guarantee you'll be coming back for more, I know I will!We had the delicious pupusas: one chicken, one revuelta and one frijoles con queso, all delicious.We also tried the torta de Pollo, which if I weren't already dead set on trying the chilaquiles next time I would get this for sure.Husband had the Walter Frys and loved them.Watermelon Agua was chefs kiss.The owner is incredibly sweet and welcome and also one of the chefs. Amazing all around!
This darling little restaurant has the touch of "family owned" that I haven't seen in soooooo long. The first time here, the daughter took her time to help me as I was was explaining that I wanted a fish burrito. (Pero no hay). The menu item I ordered was similar but way better... a Fish Tronquito. Yes this place is a fusion of Salvadoran, Mexican, American with unique menu items. Wow. It was amazing! ? ? ? ? Yummy!! The size is very generous and they cut the Tronquito in half.My husband was more interested in saving a seat outside in the patio and just said order me a chicken bowl. He never orders "bowls". So when he tasted mine, lol, he ate the other half!!! Truly it was that good (in addition to his Chicken bowl). LOL! ?? Also I had guacamole and sour cream. Their spicy hot sauce has a great kick to it! Love it. ?❤️?❤️?My friend ordered #27 chicken >> Enchilada, Taco Dorado, and Taco Placero, and he enjoyed it, too!So you order and sit and they bring the order to you and wait on you. What a giving family. Son, daughter, and Mama owner. They asked us many times if we needed anything.Can I tell you about us ordering some lemonade? They referred me to a deliciously hand made fusion of cucumbers, ? lemons and some propreitary recipe. It had some fresh green something or other as well. Whatever it is, it is so refreshing, delicious, and something I could drink daily. A perfect blend. Coming from San Diego the owner and I hit it off. She's a sweety and gave me more for the road.Now there is a fried banana dessert with powered sugar sprinkled on the side, which is so wonderful too! She gave that to us on the house as well. I am so wonderfully favored!!!All fresh ingredients, made that day to order. Nothing is frozen to microwave or frozen to defrost to cook. It's fresh. Veggies, fruit, and meat. What a refreshing place! ?
We ate at here a few months ago while on vacation, and it was some of the best food I have ever had! And the owner is one of the sweetest women ever. Felt like we were family being welcomed in her home. If you find yourself in the area, do yourself a favor and stop in for a meal, you will not regret it! I will for sure be going back on the next trip in LA.
The food was so good, huge portions and the service was amazing
Quite literally the best breakfast I’ve had in LA! The food is so flavorful and the aqua frescas were delicious! The owner is so sweet and brought us homemade cupcakes and free drinks for our walk back! Please support this business it’s an absolute gem!!
It was my first time trying out Salvadorian food, I almost picked another place for breakfast, but I’m happy I didn’t, the food was delicious. I tried 3 different entrees, the papusas, the garnaches, and el vulcan. and all of them were amazing! The service was a solid 10/10. I highly recommend grabbing a agua fresca on the way out too! Will definitely be going back soon!
My wife and I had a great first time visit at this family owned restaurant. A good ? place to bring a date, family or friends.???️
Absolutely wonderful! Never even had or heard of a pupusa before, so I gave it a try, and was not disappointed!! They are amazing! They are like nothing I've ever had! When she was asking me how hot I wanted it, she asked with a chuckle, "Do you wanna cry out of one eye or two?" We laughed, and I said, one. Then, as I was eating them and she came over to check on us, I told her I was crying out of both eyes - one because it was delightfully spicy, and the other was tears of joy! We laughed again!The facility was very clean. Even the restrooms were spic and span, and smelled very nice. That's an important measure of a food place for me. The staff are amazing, and the woman behind the counter is about the sweetest human being I've ever met. Will absolutely be going back!
We are from San Diego looking for a tasty place to have lunch. This was the best food I've had in a long time. The food was made fresh from the time you ordered it with clean ingredients from scratch. Pupusas are wonderful the way she made them with a variety of add ins. Head chef is truly gifted at what she does.
Incredibly underrated spot with very friendly staff, delicious food and drinks!
