I don't particularly care for anything mango flavored, but this had just the right amount of mango, and wasn't overly sweet, either. As for our food, we ordered fried plantains, 2 pork tamales, and 3 pupusas (flounder, chicken, and pork). The fried plantains came with beans and sour cream. The plantains were enjoyable. The beans were mashed so finely, I couldn't help but use them as a dip for the plantains. The pork tamales came in banana leaves, as Salvadoran tamales typically do. The tamales weren't as firm as I wound've liked, and could've used more pork, as well. All 3 of the pupusas included cheese. Of the 3, the pork was my favorite. The pork also included cilantro, which added a flavor the other 2 pupusas lacked. My second favorite was the chicken, which also included squash. Lastly, the flounder was my least favorite, but was still worth trying. In a nutshell, Pupusería Y Restaurante Salvadoreño was worth checking, and somewhere I can see myself returning to.

Such an unexpected flavor explosion of tanginess and spiciness. The orange sauce that comes with it (one spicy and one not) didn't have much flavor on its own, but when drizzled over the slaw on the pupusa was phenomenal!! Onto the chicken quesadilla which has onion, cilantro, and tomato's inside. Huge portion exploding with flavors. The salsa is also very good and cilantro-y. I really enjoyed the Salvadoran rice on the side. Different flavor than Spanish rice with some veggies in it. Kinda buttery flavor. Also enjoyed the beans! The restaurant itself is a little dark and empty. Seems like they mostly do carry out here but I think you can still dine in. The man working the register was super nice and encouraged us to get the pupusas - and I'm glad he did! I've heard great things about the steak tacos and will be back to try them.

I heard great things about the chicken. We ordered the family special which included a whole rotisserie chicken, 3 sides, sauces and 4 canned pop for $35.99. We went with rice, black beans and fried plantains as our sides. The food was piping hot after the 15min ride home. The chicken had a great flavor, the seasoning is unique and delicious. The rice was good, the black beans were a bit on the bland side and pretty firm in texture. We liked the 2 sauces and mild and a spicy sauce. The fried plantains were good, thicker slices than I've ever had before. I would like to come back and try some other items on the menu, pupusa sounds good to me.

The salad was spicy and outstanding. The bean was tasty. The rice was meh. The Pupusas didn't taste much. This is a mom and daughter operation. The mom is the cook, and she is customers friendly.

We went to La Cuscatleca over the weekend after trying Salvadoran food from a place in Ann Arbor…read morethe previous day. I didn't really like the food there so I was a bit confused whether it was that place in particular, or if I didn't like Salvadoran tamales and pupusas in general. I figured going to La Cuscatleca would help settle the question. La Cuscatleca is one of those marketplace/restaurant combos so common around SW Detroit and Dearborn. In the front is the register where you can pick up prepared drinks and tamales. The left half of the store is dedicated to selling Salvadoran sundries and food items. A bunch of ingredients and spices I have never seen before are stuffed into hand labeled bags and adorn the multiple shelves. The grocery area is quite crowded, with only maybe 2.5 feet in between each aisle. The restaurant order window and kitchen is in the rear, and the right half of the store is the eating area with a couple of tables. Ordering is pretty easy but requires you to know at least a little bit of Spanish - you place the order at the window, then find a seat and they'll bring the food out for you. After you finish, you'll get a handwritten bill, which you take up to the front register to pay. Again, just be aware that the people here speak little to no English. Pupusas ($3.50 each) - We tried three on the menu: revueltas, loroco, and chipilin. I think we screwed up the order with our one month Duolingo level Spanish because we weren't brought any salsa or curtido on the side. Still, these pupusas were super rich, completely stuffed to the brim with cheese and the other ingredients, with the cheese actually spilling out the sides and caramelizing a bit on the griddle. The salsa and curtido could have helped a bit to cut through some of the richness, but I think the pupusas in general are top quality. The revueltas is the most familiar with some nice refried beans spread on the interior. I wonder what the difference between the revueltas and the frijol queso is? (5/5) The loroco adds a very nice mild vegetal quality - the are very generous with the filling of cheese and whole loroco buds so you can taste and appreciate the flavor. This was my favorite of the three. (5/5) The chipilin is really, really pungent. It's kind of like spinach with the mouthfeel, but way more pungent in flavor. It's tender and not stringy or tough at all, but it's just a little too pungent for me. (4/5) Tamales ($3.33 each) - We got one puerco, one pollo, one pisque. These are wrapped in foil, then a layer of banana leaf, and finally the filling. As with a typical Salvadoran tamale, these are soft and tender masa, almost like a custard texture. The masa is an absolute flavor bomb - it's meaty, savory, full of umami. For the pisque, there's refried beans added only in the center. The beans are pretty dark looking for refried beans and has a bit of bitterness/acridity to it like it has burned bits mixed in. I'm not sure if it really was burned or it should taste like this. If it didn't have the burned taste, this would be more of a 4/5, but as it stands, it's a (1/5). The pollo has some tender potato and green pepper mixed in and the chicken maintains moisture well (4/5). The puerco has pressure cooked pork mixed in. They include the rib bones and cartilage, giving an unpleasing texture on the interior, but overall the meat portion is pretty tender and juicy (3/5). Atol de Elote ($4.50) - Woah, this is one seriously thick and rich drink. It's like drinking condensed milk mixed with corn and cinnamon. Or like a drinkable pudding or custard. Super sweet and super filling. It's served warm, so it seems great for a cold day (4/5). Bathrooms: One single room behind the eating area. La Cuscatleca is very popular with the local Salvadoran community for good reason. The pupusas in particular are hand made fresh and are absolutely delicious. While we were there, we saw several other parties all enjoying large bowls of soups and stews. We'll definitely have to come back to try those dishes and some of the other authentic specialties.
