I really enjoy coming to this place. The food is really good, and the atmosphere, while it could use some renovation, is still very cozy. The staff is super friendly, attentive, and always makes you feel welcome. read more

Cafecito Salvadoreño - Pupusas Revueltas (Chicharron, Queso) - Latin American Near Me - Long Beach, California

This is my favorite place to eat in Long Beach. It's feels like grandma's cooking. Food is delicious and tastes like home. I love ordering breakfast here the Salvadoran Breakfast plate and it comes with homemade tortillas. It's usually packed in there so come ready to wait but food comes out fast. It is cash only so be prepared. I love the the chicken tamales read more

Cafecito Salvadoreño - Latin American Near Me - Long Beach, California

the papusas de revuelta y frijol con queso are always fire, nice hole in the wall spot

Hands down the best pupusas from a restaurant. This is as close as homemade cooking gets. This restaurant has been open for decades and no much has changed but the prices. It's an old restaurant with an old school style. Call ahead and give them time. We ordered 15 pupusas for the team and work, it took about 30 minutes to have them ready. But worth the wait If dining in, the food comes out super hot, definitely worth the wait. read more

The pupusas is delicious BUT THEY ARE VERY RUDE. We've order over the phone before & can customize our pupusas to our liking & the first time I come in person to order & try to customize my pupusas I can't. The lady said that they mix everything all together already but their menu says something completely different. When she gave me back my change she placed it on the counter & didn't say anything. read more

Cafecito Salvadoreño - Salvadorian - Latin American Near Me - Long Beach, California

I love this spot ! I've eaten here plenty of times ! They are located on Anaheim , parking is a bit crazy sometimes you can find it nearby or have to park down down the street ! Love the inside of it , super small , there's booth and stool seating . Menu is straight to the point as well as the food ! Salvadoran breakfast here is top notch! Platonos, huevos , y frijoles, con arroz YUM . Everyone has been nice here with their service ! Have not tried anything else but breakfast & pupusas ! But that has been great ! Can't wait to come here again read more

Although I only have the pupusas they are delish, texture the only thing is the spot is not in the best zone , I like it

My mom is Salvadoran so I'm no stranger to BOMB pupusas, and they were really really good. It's a nice little unassuming spot and felt like a local restaurant that I should have visited way sooner. Don't let the busy Anaheim street deter you from coming here! There were so many pick up orders while we dined and I sat for over 1.5 hours catching up with a friend. The service was great, & our server was so nice and welcoming. I have to mention that their platanos con cream & frijoles were also incredible!! AND the prices are great. We left very full, happy and satisfied. Definitely going back soon, gracias! read more

Cafecito Salvadoreño - Pupusa with cheese and beans, pupusa with pork cheese and beans "con todo" and plantains cream and beans. - Latin American Near Me - Long Beach, California

They take forever to make your order and they try to scam you by not giving a receipt and try to charge you again. Also the menu says pupusas are 3 dollars and they charged us 20 for 6. Pupusas were nasty by the way read more

Great food and great prices. Great customer service. I highly recommend the tacos de tripa! So good and are a good sized taco! read more

Cafecito Salvadoreño - Tacos de tripa - Latin American Near Me - Long Beach, California

From the outside this place looks like a dump! I wouldn't have ever planned on walking in if I werent already recommended this restaurant. Once you finally walk in your greater by the staff working at that time, it's a very homey feel to the restaurant. When my party and I ordered we were anxious to try the food. Once the food finally arrive, it looked amazingly Salvadorian. They make your typical pupusa and lots more. The only draw back to this restaurant is the location, it's in a very run down part of Long Beac, don't forget to lock the car. I would definitely recommend the place to anyone and now that I know what I can expect l, I will willingly be back! read more

Great food didn't have to wait to long for my food just no parking so if you see a open parking spot make sure you take it

Tried the tamales and they were so gross super soggy and one piece of chicken, never again.. don't waste you time or money to try the tamales read more

We ordered pupusas (queso, frijol con queso, revueltas)-all were delicious! The yucca & chicharrón were also tasty. The yucca in particular was crunchy yet soft on the inside. The service was friendly and the woman who was working the front was doing it all with efficiency and a smile. They're a small place, so be patient and kind while waiting. The pupusas are made to order and that takes time. Would definitely recommend this place. read more

Really Good Place felt like home, Really good Service And prices liked my food would be coming back soon

Been going here since I was a kid since grew up in the neighborhood but after going today never again. Walked in and noticed 2 people ahead of me and 3 behind me. Not once did they a knowledge me. The 2 guys in front had to be waiting for a while since they just left. Then the lady worker asks the whole crowd waiting to see if there's any pick up orders and the people behind me went up and ordered there stuff when the lady clearly seen me waiting for 30 min and no service. Never again will I go. Service sucked big time. Looking for another pupusa spot now. read more

Este review es dirigido hacia la cosínera de pelo (bleached blonde) postiza guerra la Que en veces Contesta el teléfono y es grosera con los clientes le cuelga a la gente en media frase. Si no le gusta su trabajo mejor renuncie en vez de correr a la gente ! O a caso es negocio de ella? Ordene un desayuno típico la mayoría del tiempo ordenamos pa llevar y sale grasosisimo el platano y huevos también. A hoy ordene un side de chorizo y con instrucciones de porfavorr cosinar lo bien tostado yo aúnque se desbarate y me hace de toz la cosínera con su comentarío de "pero de prisa qiuera su orden!" Con una cara de pocos amigos y ahí fue delante de mi con eso dicho fue ahí donde aproveche a dejar le saber que fea se miraba tomando esa actitud y que reconocí su voz sobre el teléfono cuando avía llamado después de pagar para preguntar cuánto tiempo más para ver si me daba tiempo de ir a la tienda. No por apresurar como asumió con ese comentario tengo años comiendo ahí mi familia y amigos también para que me valla por algiuen de ese tipo de genio. Siempre hay de una manera de hablarle a la gente especialmente a los que los mantienen abiertos. Porfavor hagan mejor piensen antes de hablar siempre con respeto. Las meseras siempre aún ocupadas que estén NUNCA HAN MALTRADO. Mejor ni dejen que conteste el teléfono porque cosinando está y una enjuagadita de agua sin jabón después de usar su cell o contestar llamadas sería higiénico como vi hoy también. Recuerden siempre algiuen está viendo y como tratan a la gente dice mucho de su persona read more

Friendly place. Great pupusas. Fast service. We will definitely be back again. Nice to see a small "mom and pop" type of neighborhood restaurant. read more

Cafecito Salvadoreño - Missing food and DONT RECOMMEND - Latin American Near Me - Long Beach, California

We dined in the first time and got pupusas... they were amazing. Kind of greasy but still crispy and super appealing and maybe 7 inches in diameter. We got 2 frijol y queso + 2 mixtos and I tapped out after 1 because we also got fries, which were so good (they also reheated well... what's your secret?!). Really I was hoping to try the plantain empanadas but they didn't have them that day. Recommended, though I will say that ordering over the phone if you aren't fluent in Spanish is possible but difficult. read more

Best costumer service friendly staff always welcome you with a smile best pupusa in town

Found this Little Salvi gem in Long Beach. Started off with a pupusa revuelta and desayuno tipico, which means typical breakfast. The pupusa was delicious. Best I've found in the LBZ so far. That right there with the fresh cabbage mix and light spicy sauce. Bomb!! Also, the breakfast plate was all fresh and it filled me up to the max. Hand made tortillas too. Almost forgot. read more

My hunt for delicious pupusas has led me here to this little hole in the wall restsurant. My girlfriend is Salvadorian and she has very high standards and even she approved of this place. This place does not skimp on the cheese. These pupusas were oozing deliciousness and they weighed like a pound each. I ordered 5 thinking I would split them between my girlfriend and I but I was wrong. She could not finish her second and I was not about to start the third. Mind you, I can pack food in like Fat Bastard. The traditional pickled cabbage and carrot slaw that accompanies these flour and cheese creations is also a key factor in the success of the dish itself. It needs to hold its own weight apart from the pupusa. It succeded in this case. Trust me when I say this side ccan make or break the meal. I ordered my meal to go and they gave me a quart sized Ziploc bag full of this "curtido." This is very generous and appreciated. The spicy tomato sauce was also good but not great. I will be back because this place got the recipe right. Check it out on your next cheat meal day. read more

Cafecito Salvadoreño - 4 Cheesy Pupusas - Latin American Near Me - Long Beach, California

See all

PUPUSAS. Big, savory, flavorful, and cheap. I've been coming here for years and I feel like El cafecito isn't credited enough. More people need to know about this place, because it absolutely IS another hole-in-the-wall in a sketchy part of town. I've taken so many friends here, and they look at me like I'm joking about having lunch there. Yes, there are bars on the windows. The interior isn't one of everyone's preference or liking, but the food is definitely worth it! Oh God, yes. If you've never had a pupusa before, I recommend the cheese. I make trips all the way to this part of town just to satisfy a craving for a good pupusa. I believe that is their specialty, but many of their other dishes are also great. I love their posole! 9 out of 10 times the service is incredibly friendly. They have a jukebox, a jukebox!! This little gem is a favorite spot of mine, and their prices are very cheap! All in all, 4 stars Cafecito. The place is clean, just a bit old, the ambience is homey. The food is great, and the service is wonderful. Go easy on the pupusas guys. read more

Cafecito Salvadoreño is a very small resto that serves up good food at great prices. I've frequented this resto once a month for the past 3 years, as it is located near my Dr.'s office. Whether it's the $1.35 Carne Asada Tacos, the $2.50 Pupusas or their $3.00 Burrito Special (chile colorado w/ a side salad), it's difficult to find a better bargain in this day and age! Not only do they serve Good Food at a Great Price... it's served up with a Warm and Genuine Smile!!! Drop a few coins in the Jukebox and enjoy your meal in a festive mood. Don't sleep on this little Gem of a resto!! -Peace read more

Have I got a pupusa for you! Giggle. They have the largest portions of carne asada I have seen in my life... if you don't feel like ordering the pozzole. And, if you know whom to ask, they even have pupusas revueltas with larocca off the menu... just be your natural charming self when you ask. read more

Ordered a chille relleno plate with rice and beans, and hand made tortillas. As soon as I saw the cook getting a frozen chile relleno out of the freezer, I wanted a refund. No freshness at all. But decided to proceed with my lunch order.Hey is fair to give a new restaurant a shot. After every time I passed by it will be packed with customers eating outside. Convincing? BUT The cheese in the chile relleno was of the cheapest quality. The beans tasted spoiled. The rice was all right. The hand made tortilla tasted more like a gordita. YUCK. A friend recently told me they are known to let roaches live for free. No More Cucaracha Salvadoreno. read more

didnt clean tables and took long to just bring a glass of water. the tamales were nasty and soggy wasnt edible. tables were all dirty and sticky smelled weird, not reccomended please dont waste your time and dine here. horrible food yall read more

Although the food is decent I can't stress in of the importance of good service. Waiting for an hour for your lunch is completely utterly bad service when it comes to getting your food at a proper time. Might you I went at 2 pm past the lunch rush. Not sure if I want to go there again I rather drive 5 miles out and get my food somewhere where they have better timing and faster workers. read more

These folks do some excellent food. They are very Salvadoran. Only issue I have is that they want a lot of money for some platanos with some beans and cream. That part I would skip. However the pupusas are super good and pretty legit. In fact I was tempted to not do this review because I don't want a bunch of people making a big long line for food read more

The food is wonderful but the wait is long. The Pupusas are delightful and delicious. The 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 are delicious and not pricy. The Waittresses are nice and kind but their main language is Spanish so be prepared. read more

Love this place! Just be prepared to wait since service is a bit slow. But if you have time, I def recommend.

This Place Gets 5 Freaking Stars! The Pupusas are the BEST in the South Bay and they're Stuffed! When I tried the queso con frijoles it was a wrap. They beat out all others around the area. small restaurant, very small but the food is great. read more

Came to check this place out about a week ago. It was around 12:30 & busy. We had to wait for a table. The service was a bit slow, there was only one lady waitressing and two cooking. Still, we were not in a rush so it was fine once we got our coffee=) The actual food was good and priced right. I had two bean and cheese pupusas nice size and coffee was good too. If im in the area will definitely check this place out again! read more
