Finally was able to try Restaurant El Chalateco, a Salvadorean spot. The servers were all warm & welcoming. They have 6 combo deals ($11.00 to $16.49) if you order before 5:00pm. You get to choose your pupusa/tamale/drink.

- Curtido & salsa roja - salsa was thin, watery
- Platano con crema ($4.50) - decent but could have been crispier & more caramelized
- Combo #3 ($16.49) - 1 pupusa (de chicharron), yuca con chicharron & a drink (guayaba). Yuca was excellent & came with several chunks of fried pork
- Combo #6 ($12.50) - 1 tamal (pollo), 2 pupusas (revuelta & de queso y espinaca) & a drink (horchata). Pupusas were tasty. Tamale was moist & fluffy. Horchata was nicely spiced

It was great finding this place while on vacation in Montreal. The food was excellent & the portions were adequate. We had the yuca frita, carne asada & pupusas & they were delicious!

Tried El Chalateco recently & really enjoyed it!

I ordered the horchata - super fresh & flavorful, definitely a must-try! 🤍 The pupusas were good, but I personally prefer a bit more cheese & pork in the filling:)

I also had the fried pork with plantains & yuca, & it was delicious. The pork was nicely seasoned & crispy, & the combo with sweet plantains & starchy yuca worked really well.

Overall, great spot for Salvadoran comfort food 🤎🤍🤎🤍🤎

The food was delicious. We chose the combo for 4, plenty of food for 5 (10 pupusas, 1 yuca with chicharrón, 1 platanito with cream & a pitcher). The horchata & the tamarindo were great. The staff are very friendly. We will come back.

Excellent Salvadorean restoraunt in Montreal! A must visit for authentic latin american food 👌 Recommend taking different platters (such as pupusas)to share with friends or family with yuca on the side & trying out drinks like horchata also!

C'était notre première visite à ce restaurant & nous y retournerons sans aucun doute. La nourriture était excellente & fraîche. Les pupusas sont excellents, bien meilleur que dans le resto le plus couru à Mtl, pour ne pas le nommer. Les yucas & le porc frit étaient également excellent. L'huile à friture était neuve & cela paraissait dans la nourriture.
La serveuse nous avait averti d'un service plus lent à cause du manque de cuisinier mais honnêtement nous avons eu nos boissons à l'intérieur de 2 minutes après la commande & notre repas principal, 10 minutes après la commande. Cela me semble plus que très raisonnable. Un petit resto sympa à visiter!
