I asked about any lunch specials and the waitress said they didn't have any which I found very strange. I said no worries and ordered 2 pupusas and a canned soda. Pupusas were dry on the outside and mushy on the inside, not cheesy but mushy almost watery. I love pupusas and order them regularly, but left half of one uneaten. Also The waitress never once came to check up on me. Still left her a cash tip on a $10 bill and no "thank you, no ay muchas gracias, no que tenga buen dia"..nada de nada. I'm Latina and love eating at mom and pop places because the wait staff are warm and the ambiance feels like home to me. This restaurant does have a lot of bible verses on the walls maybe they should have focused on improving customer service and less on arts and crafts. Oh well, it was a miss for me.

I came here on a weekday afternoon. The restaurant was playing Peso Pluma (who I love) as I…read moreentered. I went upstairs and placed my order with the bar tender. We ordered 5 pupusas de Queso, 5 pupusas de Revueltas, sopa de pollo y arroz con tortillas. The food didn't take much long to be made and the food was very fairly priced. In all we paid $47. But remember to bring cash because they have a $5 credit card charge. My favorite is their pupusa revuelta. The pupusa de queso is missing some flavor and the cheese is bland. I'd rate the revuelta as 5/5 and the queso a 3/5. The rice wasn't too good but the chicken soup was delicious. I definitely see myself returning here.

Somerset Street (also County Road 531) feels like most main drags through small town America, but…read moreif you look a little closer, you still know you're somewhat close to New York City, as the stores and restaurants cater mostly to migrant Latin American populations. I would definitely like to try more of the restaurants out, but on a chilly winter day I chose Tesoro, partly for the promise of "treasure" within, and partly because it just looked like it would be tasty. The place reads a bit different on the inside though, as televisions play fútbol matches on weekends and neon signs, beer cases, and an all-female waitstaff make it an obvious sports bar retreat for men on their day off. The menu is full of $10+ entrees, but we were more in the mood to sample smaller dishes and have an assortment. The pupusas were standard but well done, their cheeses oozing out of the fried cakes. The tamales, as most restaurant varieties tend to be, were lifeless and required a healthy dollop of the accompanying crema, which was also good for the fried sweet plantains.

This tiny restaurant, just off the Dunellen central business district, shines as an impeccably maintained star. The colors are the deep cobalt blue and white of the Salvadorean flag, painted neatly across everything, counter to tables, even to the outdoor café umbrellas. Olga and one or more assistants deliver on a satisfying menu of traditional Salvadorean dishes such as pupusas (stuffed corn cakes) and tamales, complemented with a good selection of meat, chicken and fish main dishes. Prices are reasonable and portions are generous. A lunch of Pupusas with a drink will cost about $5, and main dishes are slightly more. It's a great little place for breakfast or lunch.

The first time I called I asked them do they deliver in my area which is down the road instead of answering the question because she didn't understand me and I understand she didn't because she greeted me in Spanish when she answered she hung up on me then I proceeded to call back I asked the same question again she passed the phone to someone who did speak English he was polite he said yes then asked me what I wanted I answered I just wanted a beef soup, Chicken soup, tiramisu and flan he said give him a minute I said no problem then him and another individual started going back and forth in Spanish until they hung up on me with no confirmation I call back again to see what happened they picked up just to hang up on me then ignored the last time I called completely. I didn't enjoy this experience I wasn't rude I didn't get nasty when I called back I just wanted food but if the cashier and or owners are reading this this behavior is understandable.

I eat here maybe once a month. Normally my high school level Spanish is enough for me to not get…read moremy arms chopped off in Mexico and shaken down by a cop, be in receipt of a beer when I really wanted a Margarita without salt, you know basic stuff like that. I can tell the difference between left and right or an avenue and a street. But no one in high school or college ever told me that my broken Brooklyn Spanish is not always congruous with central American Spanish. My wife always forces me to bust out Spanish when we need it and she didn't realize why it was so hard for me to order food here. Well it turns out there are nuances, like that incredibly tasty Delish spicy cabbage slaw they call curtido in El Salvador is really a condiment for pupusas. And that another curtido encebollada exists which is interesting but not the spicy slaw that would be special to an American seeking something tasty Delish, familiar yet exotic. The slaw is curtido de repollo Para curtido btw. They make guac on the spot awesome pupusas, a really cheap and filling Carne Asada, delicious chicken tostadas only they call them enchiladas and you have to recognize that they slang it up and will say pechuga (breast) as a substitute for chicken which is pollo. Anyhow it's all really Delish, just make sure you ask for it sin tomate or sin salsa Roja. They put this ketchupy concoction on top that throws off an otherwise super tasty chicken salad on a fried tortilla! I think at this point. They've become accustomed to me though and I hope you folks give them a try. Some of the food is really rustic and rough like comida tipica kinda rough and other stuff is just incredible like the pupusas with cactus pad or flowers and cheese.
