Truly amazing food. Steak well cooked, generous with little, unexpected extras (the cabbage was an amazing optional addition). Service was cheerful and friendly, glad to help with questions on what some of the items translated to in English.

Love the pupusas mix here

Love the pupusas here...

The food here is great! The staff is very friendly. The salsa and guac are both very good. One of the best places to get pupusas. It comes as a bonus that their Mexican food is also very good. Fun place.

Great pupusas! I came with my mother in law who is from El Salvador and she agreed the food was excellent. Friendly service, will definitely dine here again.

This place has delicious food and good service. The price is a little cheaper than other places which keeps me coming back. Food tastes very authentic and is pretty filling too. I like the Mexican dishes and the Salvadorian papusas here so you can’t go wrong. Service is quick and friendly. Give this place your business!

Normally my experience here has been a good one! But this time it was terrible. We walked in and the waitress didn't seat us but waved generically to some tables, saying to seat ourselves. After 10 minutes we got up and got our own menus, and after 20 minutes we called the waitress to take our order and get drinks. When we had waited 45 minutes we asked for an update and she said, "Oh it's another 45minutes." When we said we had to leave, she overcharged us for our drinks. It wasn't even busy!

The food was very good. I had the 2 beef enchilada lunch special. The salsa had just the right amount of flavor for me and was not too spicy (I can't stomach overly spicy things). I gave 4 stars because we had to wait for extra chips and drink refills. To be fair, they were really busy and only had 2 waitresses for the entire dining room.

I had pupusas for the first time here. It came with a jar of pickled cabbage and sauce. The pupusas were delicious. Perfectly cooked and filling, balanced by the cabbage and sauce.The steak and onions were also pretty good, with a generous portion that also comes with your choice of corn or wheat tortillas.Overall I'd say it was a great experience and I certainly wouldn't mind going back again.
