This is a great place, and I will definitely visit again to try their other menu items. During my visit, I got the "3 chilate con nuegados de yuca y dulce de platano" (a yuca dumpling and large pieces of sweet plantain in a chilate broth), which was a soup of sorts that came in two dishes, so you could choose your own sweet to savory ratio as you were eating it. The restaurant is quite large with lots of tables. Although a bit dim inside, there are a lot of large windows that let in natural light. The atmosphere is a bit cozy, and the staff is really nice and helpful. I was also very impressed with the multiple cases of fresh baked goods available for purchase at the front pickup/pay station. They looked so amazing. read more

Overall the ambiance was ok. The traditional drinks like Ensalada, were missing so many ingredients. I had a big party, so we ordered appetizers. We ordered Guacamole and beans. These are very small portions and missing flavor. We also ordered yuca frita. It was ok but was missing overall presentation and most importantly, the yuca was dry. The pork on the side was ok. We all had pupusas, grilled checked and huevos with plantains. For a place in Washington state, I can say they are trying their best. read more

Best pupusas in the area, and I've tried them all. The staff was kind and very helpful. Highly recommend.

Amazing pupusas, area is clean and the customer service is very good! They try to get your order out quick!

The food here is AMAZING. My partner is from Miami/Nicaragua and we go out of our way to stop here any time we want pupusas. We drive from North Seattle just for Berta's! Great ambiance, true to form for a family-run Salvadoran restaurant. Easy going and nice to hang out in. Free parking and wifi as well! Service is great too--the wait staff are very friendly, quick, and helpful. Get to Berta's if you're looking for some of the best Salvadoran cuisine in the Seattle area! read more

I tried this place because I was interested in what Salvadoran food was all about. I actually love their sausages and their bread. The food was wonderful and different. Some thing I wasn't used to but worth trying anyway I wasn't dissatisfied. I was more like incredibly satisfied I would try this place. They have really nice employees clean restaurant and wonderful food. read more

We stopped in for pupusas and everything we tried was excellent. We ordered the loroco, revuelta, and jalapeño pupusas, all freshly made, generously filled, and perfectly cooked. The masa was soft and tender with just the right crisp on the outside, and every bite was packed with flavor. The casamiento was a great side, comforting and well seasoned and both the Salvadoran horchata and tamarindo drinks were refreshing and authentic. The restaurant had a warm, homey feel and was full of locals, which is always a good sign. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and made the whole experience even better. We usually get our pupusas in White Center, but these were honestly our new favorite; bigger, more flavorful, and more filled. It's a bit of a drive for us in Redmond, but it was completely worth it. This is officially our new pupusa spot. read more

Went for pupusa, but fell in love with the rice and beans. Great friendly service. We've already been back for more!

This place is AMAZING! Coming from Southern California, I've missed being able to grab pupusas easily. So we've been on the hunt to find a go to place here in the PNW. We have tried out several places here in Seattle but nothing compares to Berta's. The plantains were the best I've ever had! The jalapeño pupusa was spicy, sometimes a rarity up here, and the frijoles were perfectly seasoned. Nothing was greasy, dry, or overcooked -- which has unfortunately become the norm at different restaurants. On top of the amazing food, the servers were kind and attentive. I look forward to becoming a regular! Everyone should check out Berta's. read more

What a hidden gem!! They have a big menu, but I had to try the pupusas. Lots of fillings (pork and cheese, shrimp, loroco, spinach and jalapeño, etc) and $4 each. They come out freshly made and piping hot with a side of red salsa and curtido. I had 3, which was a perfect amount for dinner. Less than $15 with tax and tip. Plus, the horchata is yummy and there's a big parking lot. read more

Berta's Salvadoran Kitchen - 3 pupusas - Salvadoran Near Me - Burien, Washington

Was in Des Moines early day meeting and stopped by a friends place and wanted to go to a place that excepts Bitcoin. Seems perfecto! I felt like I was in El Salvador. The music, the people the food.... Wow! This was a great start to this day and fulfilled with delicious flavors. The chorizo was like no other one I've had before. Almost like a Filipino Longanisa, and it's not sweet. Eggs cooked to perfection. Handmade tortillas like I had in Mexico. Luis who helped serve us and we had great service. Super friendly and happy and it's a Family business. Tip: come early before lunch. We got in around 10:15 and left fulfilled. Thank you! read more

I was recommended to try this place by my Maintenance tech. When you see the place it looks like a hole in a wall, but usually these places are the best, sure enough, great pupusas!! Service was easy and quick. She went over the menu with us and recommended yuca con chicharron and we loved it! Since Lily's Pupusas closed, definitely going here moving forward. read more

First time trying Salvadorian food and it was super good. I ordered the carne asada and it was so good with great portions. The service was very fast with amazing customer service. Another plus was the prices. For two meals and two drinks, our meal came out to $41 after tax. I couldn't believe we got such a great deal. I live right around corner and can't believe this was my first time visiting. Make sure to visit during happy hour from 3-6pm. Great place! read more

Great service, great food, comfortable ambiance and great selection of food. They had homemade tortillas and the pupusas were like no other. Will be back soon. read more

Berta's was packed with locals and saw some El Salvatore rugby jerseys so there's no doubt this place is solid El Salvadoran food. They have many of the Salvadoran dishes I can't really appreciate, but this place is a solid place for the Salvadoran experience. I had the Chile relleno that was filled with some ground beef, carrots and onions in a relleno pepper breaded with some egg and deep fried. I was tasty although I missed the cheese in the Mexican versions. It came with rice and beans that were quite good. I found that the food here reminded me of the food in Costa Rica that was all homemade, organic and nothing artificial or out of a can. This is the type of food where you have no food allergies and go home stuffed without getting heartburn. The food here is really good and obviously healthy and I saw a few soups and stews that were very enticing that I'd like to try the next time. The place was packed with locals, and I can tell the food is made with loving hands. read more

One of the best Salvadorian restaurants the sopa de gallina was good and good portions. The pupusas were ok lacking flavor. Prices a little elevated but reasonable. Service was good. read more

I love this place! Great pupusas and they make delicious Micheladas here. Service can be slow if it's busy but the food makes up for it. read more

Service was friendly and prompt. Most importantly, the food! Best papusa I've had (went one each of shrimp and pork). I'm not exactly a connoisseur. But two was just enough to leave me wanting more in a good way. Will be back any time I'm in town. read more

This is the absolute best Central American food around. I drive all the way from Downtown Seattle to Burien anytime I'm craving the best pupusas or the best nacatamales I've had since I moved away from my family. You really can't go wrong with anything you try here; from the best brunch in the 'Desayuno Cuscatleco' that generously gives you plantains, chicharron, plantains, beans, crema, yucca, and a pupusa for less than $15 - to the pork nacatamales, pupusas revueltas, and generously portioned sopa de res filled with veggies, beef on the bone, and a deeply healing broth. This place has so much love behind it, is handling all COVID precautions, and you definitely feel the love in the food here. It's tough to compete with Bok a Bok next door and top-rated Burien Fish House also next door, but you definitely need to try Berta's in Burien next time you're looking to venture into Central American food crafted with deep love and care. read more

I promise you, I (or my hubby doing the search for me) will find every pupusa place within a 10 mile radius of my office over here, because I just love them so. Berta's pupusas were as delicious as any I've had, and it was hard to save a few back for lunch the next day. What a nice family too, and the place was clean. I walked in there and they greeted me like a long lost customer. They were easy to get to from my hotel, so I will certainly be back. read more

Berta's Salvadoran Kitchen - Pupusa dinner and future lunch - Salvadoran Near Me - Burien, Washington

My sister said this is a must have when in SeaTac. I had the chicken, pork and cheese, chicharon, jalapeño and cheese, spinach and cheese papusas. All of which were delicious. They went well with the slaw and hot sauce which was included. Plenty of space inside. It suggests ordering there in the restaurant opposed to over the phone. The language barrier didn't allow for accuracy. I'd go back though for sure. read more

delicious food will be back but had language barrier problems. I will bring my Spanish speaking daughter with me. So much food! had trouble ordering drinks also. The food was worth the problems with ordering. read more

I have been craving some great down to earth pupusas and I had seen this place in a few instagram influencers and man! I am happy to have stopped by. You definitely need to have a good appetite because everything on their menu is delightful. We drank, we ate. It was wonderful. read more

The food is not authentic the pupusas are super thick and not so much toppings are put in

Voicing my negative experience here. Just terrible service. Was excited to try them out. But they just looked at us 3 times and ignored us. Taking another customers order who came in after us. Maybe your experience maybe different but this just hit different. Never again. read more

Pretty good pupusa's in burien about 15-20 minutes away from the airport they offer different flavors of pupusa's and other Salvadoran food. The cabbage slaw is super fresh tons of flavor! Also tons of filling! Nice thing about it is there is a little mini mart and a bok a bok chicken place to fill your meal! But that's another review hahah read more

Just delicious. I always order the Pupusas with spinach and jalapeño. Always hit the spot and never disappoint.

I feel like I'm eating in El Salvador!! This beats LA food by far. The amazing food behind this place is Berta, hence the name, but she is the cutest abuelita you've seen! It's like your grandma personally cooking for you the service is good and they're cautious with covid and made some nice changes to make you feel comfortable. Ensalada was perfectly sweet and you can taste the fruit that roots from El Salvador. We drive about an hour to get here and it's 10000x worth it. We are in love with the plátanos , frijoles y huevos... and most of all the pupusas are out of this world! Not greasy, just enough meat and de arroz con loroco makes it read more

First time trying Salvadorian food and I am glad I came to Berta's! Although the food took a bit long to come out it was worth it.

The pupusas are always excellent. I highly recommend trying the rice flower option as well as corn flower - both are delicious and a must-try. read more

Absolutely amazing pupusas , marg, and shrimp cocktail. New spot every time I come to Burien.

Pupusas are on point!!! Very generous with portions, great pricing. Food is delicious!

Good food and service. The pupusas were delicious and not dry when reheated. The yuca was so good and the chicharrón was also very tasty.

Reviewing for: Food and Drinks Location: you need to drive, unless you live in the neighborhood. They have a parking lot that shares space with a few restaurants (bok Bok, who knew?!) Food: AMAZING Papusas- I think I've had each type and they were all pleasing Drinks: They have happy hour 3-6 and their beers are 3.50-3.75, buckets are $22 and all of their liquor is $10. Space: I love the tight space- it's always busy (which means it's GOOD) with local folks and the bar space is tiny. Overall Experience: 5 for the convenience, deliciousness and bar is a plus! read more

I had went after a flight from Colorado, OMG so freaking good I gotta go back for more. I absolutely recommend this place. My favorite new place now that I'm a resident. read more

Berta's pupusas are AMAZING! I haven't had pupusas so good since I left Houston! Pupusas are thick corn tortillas that are stuffed with savory meat, cheese, beans, or veggies. It is then cooked on the griddle and accompanied with a spicy slaw that contains cabbage, onions, carrots, and lime juice. Each pupusa here is $2.50 and you have your choice of filling. I ordered the revueltas, which is a mix of pork, beans and cheese. They were crispy on the outside and soft and very savory inside. The sauce and slaw on top really made it delicious making you want more. read more
