I had walked by this place a dozen times & went in on a whim not sure what to expect. I got the Iris Special - a filling plate with eggs, pupusa, beans, plantain, & sausage. It was was perfectly cooked, cohesive, & tasty, particularly the pupusa & beans. Will try the breakfast next time!

Un petit secret du quartier tellement savoureux & chaleureux! On a pris le 1/2 kilo de boeuf en tacos à deux. On sort amplement rassasiés, les papilles saturées & le portefeuille pas trop magané.
