Such an amazing authentic Salvadorian restaurant! I tried the ensalada tropical and it was delightful. It was topped with summer... favorite fruits and a delicious fruit dressing and Pawn. Read more
If there were more stars to give, I would!! The absolute best pupusas around are found here! The restaurant is bright and clean... and such a pleasant atmosphere! We went for lunch and the lunch specials were perfect! Lots of variety for great prices. Thestaff was friendly and attentive. We will most definitely be back again soon! Read more
Food and service was really good! I saw the previous reviews about bad service but had no. issue at all. The lunch special was... such a great deal for only $14.99. I got 2 pupusas (chicharrones & revueltos con frijoles) and side tropical salad combo. Theportions are huge! I also tried the fried yucca and chicharrones, which was really tasty. The pork was crispy on the outside,juicy and tender on the inside. The refried beans were delicious too. Next time I will try the seafood soup! Read more
Please order to go. Service is the worse. You have to wait about 15 minutes for them to say hi and maybe offer something to... drink. I was there on tuesday not busy day only 2 tables and still I was waiting to order something for about 15 min. DefinitelyI'm not going there anymore...please do you self a favor if you lime the food order to go or hopefully someone opens a differentSalvadoran restaurant in the area. Read more
Absolutely delicious food, made fresh to order. We will be back soon! Best pupusas and plantains I've ever had so far ????
We were fortunate enough to be able to dine-in during the pandemic, right before another lockdown in Tracy, California. The food... was phenomenal. All of the flavors, presentation, and variety... reminded me of my favorite Caribbean dishes. We had thechicken/cheese/veggie pastelitos, cheese & Loroco papusas, chicken tamales, black beans, rice, tropical salad, and avocadosalad. This is truly a hidden gem! Read more
What food comes to mind when you hear Salvadorian food? For me, it's papusa! I h've spent a total of two days in El Salvador,... and I loved it. One of the most fun experience I had was making papusa in a papusaria near the airport. How does the food herecompare? With my limited knowledge of Salvadorian food, I think this place is pretty legit (apparently so do many others). Weordered: !Hot Corn Drink! - this was my favorite part of meal. It was an extremely hot corn drink, almost like a sweet cornchowder. It was hard to drink because it was so hot and creamy, but I thoroughly enjoyed every sip/bite of it. *Papusa Combowith Fried (or Steamed) Yucca, Beans and Sour Cream - 2 papusa of your choice (I got fried pork and chicken with vegetables, Iprefer the former); I didn't really care much for the beans or the sour cream (more runny and less flavorful than normal sourcream) *Meatballs with Fried Plantains, Salad, and Tortillas - meatball was pretty soft, and had a strong mint flavor to it. Ididn't fancy it, but my boyfriend enjoyed it (he likes soft food and meatballs). The tortillas looked and tasted just like thepapusa, minus the fillings. We also got an appetizer of fried potato balls with chicken and corn. It was good with the hotsauce. Overall, I had a good experience here. Service was good, and food was delicious. I can't wait to come back to try somesoups and get that corn drink again! Read more
