Reviews for El Salvadoreño Restaurant in El Monte, CA
This mom and pops place is very good. The portion, specifically pupusas, is very large and delicious. They are made fresh so be... patient with them. The chicharron and yucca is very good. I wish I was not hungry so I only have one photo. Read more
It was to hot to stay and dine in for breakfast no AC so we walked out not trying to be uncomfortable while I eat and pay for... it. Also they don't have hotcakes some salvi restaurants do have pancakes. We wanted the salvi breakfast and somehotcakes/pancakes. Read more

Food is incredible here, it was my first time going to a Salvadoran spot. I got a steak plate with fried shrimp and a couple... different kinds of pupusas. Everything was amazing and I?ll definitely be coming back. It did take a bit of time for the foodthough so I suggest calling ahead for takeout. Read more
The wife was in the mood for pupusas but since we hardly ever have them we weren't sure where to go. Googled search lead me to... this place, had seen as for years as a burger joint but somewhere along the line they became a Salvadorian restaurant... Placeis nothing fancy, please keep that in mind. I thought the prices were a little expensive but then I saw the actual size of thepupusas, pretty good size. Ordered 2 revueltas and 2 de frijoles, damn good gotta say. My wife said they were in the salty sidebut perfect for me. She could barely finish one by herself. I read a prior review saying they were super greasy, I don't thinkthey're anymore greasy than any typical pupusa. I mean, your ordering chicharron with cheese, it's gonna be a little greasy.Also ordered the empanadas de platano, I can only give them an ok... My only gripe about the place was that a got a dirty lookfrom the cook because I ordered a couple things ala carte which I guess was too much work for her, lol... I ordered 2 burgerpatties with cheese and grilled onions. Is that a lot to ask for?? They still sell burgers so it's nothing out of theordinary... One more thing, it did take a litter longer than expected for my order to be ready. Overall I would recommend... Read more
They take for ever to cook a meal I stop to eat breakfast and they took 45 min to get me the food just for 2 eggs with beans and... plátanos they need more cooks to cook faster Read more
