    Curtido

    Pupusa was made lazy, very greasy, no form, truly the most unpleasant pupusa ever. The curtido was so old it had no color! Also certain days they claim the pupusas are cheaper than they actually are. The cookies they sell are also stale. 0/10 food. It's sad they actually sell this.

    Price of false advertising

    This place is a rip off it says in their window Tuesday's and weds special pupusas $2.50 when I ordered he charged me about 10 dollars and a drink never go there unless you want to pay more.

    Hands down to this little joint. I found this spot because I had been craving a pan con pollo and I decided to give it a try. I've been here three times and I must say the first time I came here, I had the pan con pollo and omg I was in awe of how delicious it was. The second time, I was going to order to pick up and they had run out for the day. I opted for the pupusas. I got a revuelta and a frijol con queso. They were good the only thing i Dont like is their tomato sauce. It's too watery. My third time I ordered a pan con pollo again and i was a bit disappointed because they did not put the cole slaw instead they put a ton of mayonnaise at the bottom and it just made the bread so soggy!! I ended up just eating the chicken with no bread. I guess next time, i will just eat it there instead of taking it home. I tried their ensalada drink and it was soooooo good!!! The parking sucks, i either park quickly in red or have been lucky enough to find parking on the side street. Other than that, I'd recommend you give it a try.

    This place was pretty decent. My friend and I were one of the few there, it's a small place but it's clean. I ordered a pan con pollo and 2 pupusas. Ensalada: the best drink that I've had in all the Central American restaurants I've tried. Wow was it tasty, refreshing and so well put together. My mouth is watering thinking about it. Pan con pollo: was delicious, better than I expected. The juice they give u on the side is really good, well seasoned but it was just a bit too salty for me. That was the only downside about it. Salty, but still edible. Pupusas: queso con loroco & chic garron con queso were better than other places that I've tried. Cooked perfectly, enough cheese but I would've wanted a little more meat. I will come back and try something different here, that's for sure. I highly recommend this place to anyone who lives around this neighborhood.

    The Pupusas are Really Good, they make them fresh when you order them with the cabbage & Sauce in these ready to go bags and the owners are really Nice & also the customer service is Great #SupportYourCommunity

    The good stuff: Great pupusas, platano Frito and ensalada drink ! The pupusas and decent size I had 2. I had queso and revuelta. There $2.25 each but there's a special Tues. and Wed. The creama was excellent reminded me of being in Honduras many moons ago! Customer service was great. The not so good stuff: PARKING, I had to circle the restaurant 3 times! There is minimal parking in the back but I wouldn't recommend it. Try parking on the street. Hope this helps! Enjoy a taste of our Central American culture!

    Had to try this place out seems every food place that opens up in this spot closes down. First impression they are not that friendly but that is how most salvadorian places are. I got the fried yuca and a revuelta pupusa, the drinks are can like sodas, but the ensalada drink are not. They have hot drinks the hot chocolate is really good can be with water or milk. The pupusas them selfs are a good size the filling needs flavor the cheese is too greasy i asked for a spicy sauce and they gave me a red sauce that was unexplainable no flavor not spicy tasted thick,cold an weird. Will i return maybe if i am Around an craving a pupusa lol.

    Never again. A Big Black HAIR coming out of my Pupusa.. GROSSSSS Was really enjoying my food until I seen a Jaír I thought it was mine (so I wouldn't psych myself out but when I tried pulling it , it was stuck to the cheese & everything inside the pupusa.

    Bistec encebollado

    Stopped by randomly. Craving Salvi food. I enjoyed the bistec encebollado despite it being a bit salty. Large portion. Meat was flavorful, tender and moist. The rice was well cooked and the juice from the meat made it a 10/10. The onions we're perfectly cooked, too. Why not 5 stars? The beans tasted pretty sour and over all it could have had less salt (and I love salt). I would go back for sure to taste the rest of the menu. :-)

    La comida está buena pero la mujer que atiende es muy igualada con los hombres les habla en doble sentido. Es una falta de respeto.

    The pupusas were okay.. it's a little pricey, so I would go on Tuesday when they are on special.. The hot chocolate is really good!

    Hello, I would like to share feedback regarding my recent visit. The sopa de gallina india was…read moreunfortunately very salty, which made it difficult to enjoy the meal. I wanted to bring this to your attention in case it can be addressed in the kitchen. I appreciate your time and would be grateful for any resolution or feedback. Thank you.

    Probablemente la peor experiencia en un restaurante que e tenido en este año…read more Llegamos y esperamos 30 minutos por una mesa lo cual es totalmente entendible para un domingo. Llegamos y la host en seguida llegó a la mesa a dejar chips y frijoles. Luego llegó Carolina nuestra mesera con 0 carisma y a quien se le nota que odia trabajar en la industria de del servicio de alimentos porque su servicio al cliente es pobre y seco. Llego a tomar la orden toda de un solo y no las bebidas primero como debe ser. Ordenamos las bebidas y yo le pedí un agua de guanábana (está en el menú) y me dijo que no la tenían, entonces le pedi un chocolate caliente (está en el menú) y también me dijo que no tenían, le dije okay, que hay de los cocos (también en el menú)? Me dijo que si tenían, para 5 minutos después venir a decirme que no tenían tampoco eso. Le dije okay que me diera una Coca-Cola. Luego ordenamos nuestra comida, yo ordené una sopa de res (también está en el menú), 10 minutos más tarde viene a decirme que no había sopa de res tampoco. Mi molestia fue ver que a una mesa de 4 personas que llegaron 5 minutos después de nosotros les salió su comida unos 10 minutos antes que a nosotros y que una de sus comida era sopa de res la cual a mí me negaron luego de haberme negado todo lo que quise ordenar antes. Para asegurarme de no juzgar mal le pregunté a la mesera de la otra mesa que si esa era una sopa de res y me dijo que si. Y 30 minutos después de nosotros llegaron otras personas y se sentaron al lado nuestro y ordenaron sopa de res y para ellos también hubo. Cuando vino a decirme que no había sopa de res de inmediato ordené unos camarones a la diabla y que no quería ensalada y en lugar de eso pregunté si me podía dar más arroz, a lo cual respondió que si. Cuando nuestra comida empezó a salir 30 minutos después de haberla ordenado vienen 3 de los 5 platos primero, siendo mis camarones uno de los 3 primeros, con mucha ensalada (la cual había dicho que no quería) y con un poco de arroz crudo o sobre cocido no sabría decir exactamente como. De los 2 platos restantes llegó la mojarra de mi sobrino 15 minutos después de los primeros platos, y 10 minutos despues de la mojarra salieron las 2 pupusas que ordenó mi hermano (cuando ya todos estábamos casi terminando de comer) (45 minutos para 2 pupusas de loroco? Come on!) Luego de la mesera solo llegara a botar los platos no se acercó más nunca a ver si todo salió bien, si nos hacía falta más bebida o algo más, hasta el final. Los adultos de la mesa teníamos los vasos vacíos porque queríamos ordenar más bebida pero nunca se nos ofreció. En fin, este lugar es todo lo que está mal en la industria restaurantera y de servicio al cliente. Yo soy mesero y bartender y se distinguir cuando es culpa del mesero, cocina, o gerencia y en este caso están todos muy mal. La gerencia por contratar gente sin la capacidad y por no asegurarse de que lo que esté en el menú esté también disponible, y por no supervisar el nivel de servicio que se está ofreciendo por parte de su staff. La cocina por no leer los tickets que se meten (porque en el recibo claramente decía no ensalada sub arroz) Y finalmente la mesera que es la parte más importante para asegurarse que el cliente se vaya contento ya que somos la cara del establecimiento. Al no haber las primeras 4 cosas que ordené ella debió PRIMERO poner MUCHA atención a mi plato y asegurarse de que al menos viniera de la manera en que lo ordené. SEGUNDO cuando se tiene una mesa ya molesta uno hace cositas extras para minimizar la molestia del cliente (llevar una pequeña sopita o una pequeña ensaladita de la casa, un poco más de chips y frijoles, asegurarse de que al menos las bebidas no falten, luego quedarse muy pendiente de la mesa molesta y al final ofrecer un pequeño postre por las molestias ocasionadas. Almenos yo como mesero y bartender con experiencia es lo que hago y mis clientes que en algún momento estuvieron molestos se van con un buen sabor de boca de nuestro establecimiento. Porque igual de importante que la comida es la experiencia! Y de eso se encarga un mesero, de asegurarse que el cliente tenga una buena experiencia en ese lugar. Pero claramente Carolina está forzada a trabajar en Sondonate Grill porque se ve que no le agrada el lugar ni la gente que frecuenta el mismo. Yo siempre dejo al menos un 20% de propina pero esta vez iba a dejar un 10% por la mala experiencia porque soy un capaz de irme sin dejar propina pero que creen? Ni para tomar propinas sirve este lugarcito, ya que no puedes dejarla en la tarjeta, debes llevar cash si o si. En fin, una experiencia 1 de 10.
