Amazing food at excellent prices. I would go there every week if I lived nearby. The vegetarian dishes like the burrito & the quesadillas are great too.

We had pupusas for lunch. The owner was watching some TV show. It would have been to have some salvadorian music as background music instead.

I don't know for the other plates, but pupusas were not good. They tasted like tortillas with almost no filling. The curtido felt like 2-3 days old & the salsa was way too liquid, like water was added in it.

Nous sommes venus en grand groupe & le service a été excellent (2 employés pour un groupe de 20 & très peu d'attente, bravo) ! Les portions sont très généreuses, je recommande la soupe de poisson !

The portions are really big. I think some of the food is frozen & then reheated since it wasn't hot in the center. Not the best service since they did not even provide tap water for our table.
