Définitivement le meilleur restaurant Salvadoreno à Montréal. Prix très compétitif surtout lorsque d'autres restaurants vendent les pupusas à 5$ chaque! Ceci ne sont pas très grands ou trop petits. Leur format est identique aux pupusas traditionnels. Comme boisson , la horchata est 100% authentique. Chez d'autre restaurant il rajoute trop de lait & la couleur trop pâle. Je le recommande à tous.
