The service is great, the food is fresh and there's good parking nearby. The staff is always friendly and they also have a kids menu for the little ones who aren't familiar Salvadorian cuisine. I love their El Tunco platter and it's great to share with 2-3. Their rice is always perfectly seasons and fluffed we always order extra. The daughter loves their yucca cob chicharrón.

The service is good as well they know me by now ans know my order so customer service is always pleasant. The store is nice spacious amd clean you don't ever sit too close to people so you're not feeling crowed when you eat. Would definitely recommend for lunch and dinner. Also just heads up no alcohol served here only beer I believe.

We loved their red spicy sauce and super crunchy fresh curtido. They are packed into small zip lock bags. I forgot to take photos since I was hungry. This little shop is in the middle of nowhere next to a small auto parts shop and parking is limited. The immediate area is ugly and industrial but the pupusas keep us coming back. Best taken to go. It's not a comfortable spot to eat in. We paid 4 dollars per pupusa to go. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

My go to is the 3/$12 Revuelta pupusas and the Plantains with the beans . Top tier beans and plantains. I am so glad I found this place. It is very close to my work. I do recommend calling in your order at least 30 minutes before so that it'll be ready for you to pick up. sometimes they do not answer their phone but they will give you a call back. Keep in mind they do not accept tap pay, but they do accept Zelle and Venmo if you need to make a mobile payment. It is small and cozy inside but there are at least 4 tables if you want to dine in. They do have a few tvs if you were there to relax while waiting or out with your family. Being new to the area, this place will definitely be my go to for pupusas.

I used to come here more often when I worked in Richmond as it was on my way home. Yesterday, I was…read morein the area and figured I would stop by. I am so disappointed at the food changes and feeling bad to give a bad review as I love supporting small businesses and love Salvadorean food. There's a lot of room to improve. I've been eating Salvi food since I was child. If you order to go check before you leave. I had an item missing. I called and was able to get a refund. She handled it nice too since she forgot to add it. I took food to go. I added pictures on all. The tamales both chipilin and pork were good. The masa was excellent. The size was small to medium. The pupusas are tiny, they are good but nothing extraordinary. As they are small there's no cheese stretch or a good feel about the filling. The masa is good. The quesadilla pasty was crumbly, it did not feel fresh. It was dry with no flavor compared to ones I've eaten before. The best Salvi quesadillas are moist. The guava, pineapple, and custard empanada pastry were small. The pineapple one did not feel fresh, more on the dry side, crumbly compared to other flavors. The pork empanada was probably the worst. They were tiny with hardly any filling. The empanadas usually have a ground meat or shredded chicken. This one had pieces of pork so it was not flavorful at all. There's table seating indoors and outdoors. The yucca con chicharron was okay too. Usually it comes with a salad like but this one came with 1 beet, 1 slice of tomato and 1 slice of cucumber with a small bag of curtido. No sauce. Tip: The server gave me a business card and recommended to call for orders to go as the waiting time was 30 minutes. I did not mind waiting. I appreciated her sharing this. Tip: recommend the pork tamal. The pupusas if hungry get at least 3.

The pupusas de maíz are worth ordering, but I'd skip the pupusas de arroz. The ambiance is nice and the space is large, though it's usually busy.

I…read moreordered a steak quesadilla, and honestly, it might be one of the best quesadillas I've ever had. The steak was super flavorful and cooked perfectly. The guacamole and pico de gallo were fresh and really complemented the dish. I also appreciated that they included shredded lettuce on the side, that's a small touch that I always enjoy having it with my quesadilla. The only downside was the sour cream. It was really watery, and I was a little nervous that it might've been spoiled. That part was disappointing. Overall though, the steak quesadilla was amazing. I'll definitely be back for that and I might even try the steak burrito next time.

The food: I had ordered the pupusas plate: 2 pork n cheese with black beans and rice as sides and my partner ordered pupusas plate pork n cheese but replaced sides with fried plantains. Pupusas are 5/5 for sure! They're not greasy and they're crispy! The cabbage salad is on the saltier side than the usual places I've been to. That was 3/5. The plantains were very soggy and greasy and burnt at the same time 2/5.

I'd honestly say we are in really tough times when a restaurant is charging $5 a pupusa. As…read moredelicious as these pupusas are, it's crazy to me that they are charging that much. On top of that, on the menu it's $10 for 2 pupusas. So I don't think it's an option to just order one. Someone correct me if I am wrong. All that being said, they're freaking delicious. I just wish they wouldn't charge so much. I really am going to have to find a spot where they charge less. But I'm probably not because it's freaking delicious. We've tried everything they offer. Chicharron, solo queso, loroco, etc. When you find a good pupusa spot, it's hard to leave that spot and try others. I'm definitely coming here often, they're worth the price.
