Nestled in the corner of a housing complex is an unassuming red roofed restaurant serving authentic Salvadorean and Mexican cuisine. I think they excel in pupusas which are one of the favorite things I get from this restaurant. I also love their tamales de elote. Not a fan of their other dishes but because I’m neither Salvadorean nor Mexican, I don’t have any bearing if the food is good or not. I’m just not a fan, personally.

We always enjoy this restaurant and make a point of having lunch here whenever we’re up in that area. The pupusas are excellent and the Mexican dishes we’ve had were very good. The service is always good as well.

We haven’t been here in awhile and from the first taste regret staying away so long. The food was really good. My steak was delightful and the pupusas were outstanding. Their prices are affordable. The place just needs a little sprucing up but the food makes up for the atmosphere.

The food was so good and affordable. The fried plantains were so yummy, I almost forgot to take a picture. We mainly came here to try pupusas and it did not disappoint! The waitress was also very kind! Definitely recommend.

Good, local restaurant. Reminds me of a mom and pop place which are typically good. I got locoro pupusa’s to try and a cheese enchilada because I read they were good… and they were! For an entre, got the Camaorones Acajuta which was very tasty. My friend recommended the place so while he was in town we went for me to tey it out. It was as good as he remembered.
