I have never been to the store physically but I've ordered multiple times on DoorDash. This place is a gem for authentic food. I absolutely love it. This time I got the mixed fajitas and as always, the bean pupusas. The food is always cook perfectly! Does not come with any sauce, but it's not needed. Will continue to order from here!! read more

I am not a fan of La Cocina De Mi Tierra at all... I placed an order through Uber Eats and was only able to stomach one shrimp taco. This is not a Mexican restaurant. I believe the food is Salvadorian, but it still missed the mark for me. I've had Salvadorian food and this did not compare. The tortilla used is not the expected flour/corn tortilla that a lot of us may used to. The tortilla was too thick for my liking. The shrimp for the shrimp tacos was cut into multiple pieces, instead of being left whole. The beans, were a pureed consistency and looked like slop. The rice was also disgusting and lacked flavor. I will not be a return customer. read more

Nice little hole in the wall type of restaurant with good seasoning and variety of dishes. I ordered over the phone and then went to pick up. Staff were not wearing masks and that was a bit of a concern to me. My food was paid for and ready when I arrived all bagged up, so it was a quick pick however, the place seemed a bit messy inside and them sitting around not doing much. I was not pleased with the taste of the pupusas, they tasted like the meat had gone bad. The steak with shrimp dish was very good, but could have been a larger portion for the price paid. They are a bit hidden so you would have to know that it's there that you are actually going to, otherwise you may miss it by just driving by. read more

Great food, love the ambiance and service always pretty quick! definitely recommend trying out

I discovered this placed through a friend but they were located by the Census Bureau on Suitland Road in run down shopping center. Now they are located in a small shopping center by a apartment complex. They have 2 storefronts merged into 1, so it's much bigger! Since this location is in a shopping center with a parking lot, no one is loitering. The food is still the same! Bomb af! The only difference is that I think they give you a little more food now at their new location. Certain items on their menu went up in price but the quality is still the same! Always ordered my food to go and by the time I get home it's always still hot. read more

I ordered 3 pollo tacos which I thought were going to be bomb but ended up being disappointed. The food had little to no flavor, the only thing that was kinda good was the pico. They give decent sized portions of food but the seasoning is not where it needs to be. The service was slow and they did not know English which is understandable and not much of a problem for me since I know Spanish. The place looked dead when I got there, I was the only person. I would not recommend anyone to go here, it would be a waste of your money. read more

I'll be back to this place during the day. I really liked the vegetarian burrito. It was better than most places, as it included big chunks of carrot, potato, and other vegetables. Many places throw in rice, beans, and mushrooms. My kid liked the pupusas. He actually got the cheese, bean, chicken, and pork. The place seemed clean. The service was real good, even though there was a communication barrier. I got everything I needed and expected. The price was fine, though I got charged extra for the chicken pupusa. Also, the sodas were just from the fridge. Two bucks, which is not bad, but I'd rather pay just a little more for a fountain drink. I prefer a couple refills. read more

I ordered tamales and beans. What I received was something I wouldn't give to a dog. The tamales were steamed while wrapped in aluminum foil. Needles to say, when I unwrapped the slimy mess, the tamale was a wet mush. Disgusting. The beans were not at all what I expected. A small plastic (maybe 3 or 4 oz) container of bean broth. Not a single whole bean in it. I threw out the whole mess. Very dissappointed and feeling ripped off. read more

My favorite dish here is the beef soup (sopa de res). Yummy! It's my go to comfort food! I get it whenever I want something to soothe my soul or if I'm coming down with a cold. read more

It's a hit or miss with the food and service here. Ordered some pupusas and was told it was going to be a 15-20min wait, I was given my food after an hour later and when trying to figure out the time frame I was met with a rude attitude by one of the workers. It was my first time there and my last. Pupusas were okay tho but I felt like the wait and customer service wasn't worth it. I'll recommend los nietos, they have a decent service. read more

I ordered Uber Eats. I ordered Nachos con Guacamole, $7.95, which I found out when it arrived it was really just Chips & guacamole. I could've just ordered guacamole for $3 because I had chips at home but the chips & guac was good. I just added salt to the chips. I also ordered Tacos De Camarones. Camarones where?? I saw popcorn shrimp? Maybe they need to charge more for non-popcorn shrimp or at least give the option to add. The toppings on the tacos was great but I wasn't expecting popcorn tasteless shrimp. I also wasn't expecting the salvadoran tortilla as apart of the taco. I was expecting a Mexican tortilla. The tortilla is also tasteless & thick so I just put guac on the chip & took the toppings off the tortilla & put it on the guac with the chip. read more

This food was great it tasted as good as it looked. The service was unmatched and was truly fast. The restaurant itself was nice and clean. Over all I will be coming back! read more

Came in to order food. NOTICED everyone without mask. I asked if there following covid protocols?, The young girl was wearing a chin mask, and the guy behind the counter had a neck mask! they looked at each other and laughed. So I took my business elsewhere. As a businesses owner they should train and educate there staff accordingly to our times. Costumers are going to eat were they feel comfortable. Won't ever be here again. If that's the front of house imagin the back. read more

I drove by and saw this local Salvadoreño ("Salvadorian") restaurant and decided to give it a try. It is part of a three restaurant chain that are all in close proximity near the Seat Pleasant, Maryland area. Food. During my visit, I decided to have a cheese and pork pupusa as an appetizer ($2 per pupusa), a steak and eggs meal ($14), and an horchata to drink ($2 per drink). The pupusa was delicious, fresh made, and overall great. I saw the wonderful Salvadorian women hand-making my pupusa after I ordered, so I knew it would be fantastic, and taste like it was home made. The steak and eggs meal was also delicious, fresh, and overall great. I was surprised with the amount of food. The steak (carne asada style) was huge, and had great flavor. The eggs were sunny side up and fresh. The side of rice was quite generous, and had a good flavor. The black beans were a bit runny for my tastes, but still tasted good. I was also given fresh made tortillas, which were delicious. Service. The service could use a little work. The ladies that were there when I visited were very friendly, but as far as it feeling like a top-notch restaurant customer service experience, it falls a bit short. Location. The location is a okay. It is in a small lot neighboring some barber shops, and a couple of take out spots. It could also use some work as far as presentation. Price. The food was good, but a bit overpriced. The pupusas at $2 per item are good value, but some of the main courses, albeit generous in portions, are a bit expensive. Also, there are no free refills for some drinks, such as the horchata, which was a negative for me. Overall, I would return for some pupusas, tacos, and other traditional items. I would love to try some of the other main dishes, but they are a bit pricey for my tastes. read more

If you are interested in fajitas go elsewhere. The tortillas were thick and nasty. The ingredients were ok nothing to write home about but again the tortillas were inedible. read more

Great customer service! However, the pupusas revueltas that I ordered had pork that resembled pulled pork. Normally the pork is put through a food processor for a smoother consistency! Also- the tacos I ordered were a disappointment. I was hoping for something for authentic. Not only was there lettuce and cheese on the taco (taco bell vibes) but the tacos were served on a very thick, Salvadoran style tortilla. No. La tortilla esta muy gruesa para que sea para tacos....y porque con queso rallado americano? Pensé que iba ser más auténtico. El chicharrón muy grande para pupusas. Pásenlo por un processor de comida o algo así. read more

Today I order pupusas and some empanadas. They have the best pupusas around!!! I ordered the pork with beans, and beans with cheese. Their empanadas are well priced for their size. Their customer service is great, and prompt. I always receive my food fresh and hot. Highly recommend for some Hispanic food!!! read more

Came by not lunch break to order my husband some chicken soup because he wasn't feeling well. I appreciated that the service was fast, but there was literally a whole chicken thigh in the soup....I had to break it up into pieces before I gave it to my husband and then I discovered part of the chicken were cooked all the way...not the best first impression of this restaurant, but I wouldn't mind trying something else because they do have a pretty extensive menu. read more

Overall my experience was lackluster to say the least. I ordered online through Yelp which translates to Grubhub. That process was easy. I arrive to the location at the appropriate time to pick up my food. The food was ready; however, the person upfront had no idea who the food belonged to. I was asked if I was Uber..I had to search on the receipts to figure out what belonged to me. The food was just ok. Nothing great to write a review about. I ended up throwing 75% of it out as my family wasn't impressed. There was more rice, beans, and salad than anything else. If you're a carnivore go elsewhere. My burrito consisted of maybe 6 pieces of meat. Yes I counted. read more

Great food!!!! Had it once on my own and HAD to come back with friends. The food is affordable, taste AMAZING, and the hostesses are so nice. Clean bathroom as well. All around Grade A Salvadoran food. If you are in the area give this place an honest try. They won't disappoint. The Tamale con Pollo, Carne Asada, and Polla com Cream are the best dishes I've had so far!! read more

What we ordered: pupusas, steak fajitas. Everything was super tasty! The pupusas could have used a bit more spice or seasoning but pretty great! We ordered out so i can't say much about the service. Give it a shot. read more

I order from here for the pupusas! They are really good. I also ordered tacos from here. They really stuff the tacos and everything is seasoned well, but they would test better in tortillas. They use the same flatbread that is used for the pupusas and the texture is kind of awkward (if that makes sense) U haven't tried anything else yet, but definitely come for the pupusas read more

The food is so amazing the customer service is top notch and it's just an overall good place the atmosphere is out of this world.

First order was ok! Taco shells are bit too thick for my liking. Shrimp tacos were flavorful. The actual shrimps were cut into little pieces, which was a bit odd. Pricing for all items ordered was reasonable. read more

Loved this place the first time I went but considering it was a to-go order there wasn't much to go off of except the food was good. But when we went inside to dine in the other night it was terrible. It was empty, should have been a sign right there. You HAVE to ask the manager if you want the "complimentary" chips and salsa apperently otherwise you don't get the choice at all. The food took literally forever to arrive after ordering. Once the food arrived I noticed my moms food was never served so I asked the waitress & who told me we did get it. I'm like no my mom hasn't gotten anything, she's literally the only one who didn't get served. So then she never told me what happened to our food just left me waiting, once I asked again they tell me they forgot the plate because they were "thrown off" when we asked about the chips and salsa. So I'm like what does chips and salsa have to do with the intipuca plate have to do with that anyway, then she's like "oh the kitchen forgot because the chorizo was still pink" at this point we had even paid for the bill and everything so I'm like "so if I hadn't checked to make sure everyone got their food you have just charged us for the plate and let us walk out of here without it" on top of all this the woman who looked to be in charge because she wasn't doing anything but sitting behind the counter was being smart and rude with her responses. read more

Ordered 4 steak tacos and 3 papusas and it is a lot of food! The tacos have a lot of steak cooked perfectly but could really use more seasoning. I got the pork papusas and they are good 4/5. Decent food!! read more
