Next we tried the chunky guac and the Mexican street corn. The guac was really good, the onions and tomatoes brought the flavor to a great spot. The street corn was exquisite! The cheese level was spot on! We tried both the happy hour tacos and you can't go wrong with either. The shrimp tacos had a tasty tempura batter and the carne asada tacos were full of perfectly cooked little medallions. All the toppings were fresh and crisp. Everything was amazing. We can't wait to get back! Great location, great service, great food! Definitely try this happy hour out too!!!

For only 5.95 each they were pretty large. The pupusas themselves were cheesy, satisfying, and flavorful and paired great with the tangy, fresh slaw on top. I appreciated how they provide a huge container of slaw and delicious hot sauces.

They have one seasonal fish with the regular combination of calamari (sautéed to perfection, tender and tasty), scallops, all in a creamy rice base with little steamer clams presented in a semi-circle around the dish. A lovely shrimp, avocado, (mild) red onion salad on the side. How they got the red onions to taste like a crunchy "I'm-not-an-onion" salady thing is a mystery to me, and I cook! I had the panna cotta for dessert. Honestly, just go.

We arrived a bit late and were asked to wait 5-7 minutes. After that, we were quickly taken to our table. There, our waitress handed us the menu where we looked over the selections. We decided to ordered one appetizer to share and two entrees. We decided to go with the Papa Rellena. It is filled with meat and an egg and enclosed in potato. There is a cheesy sauce that it's paired with and it's goes so well together. I can easily chow down 4, but that will be my entire dinner. Our main entrees were the Arroz Chaufa and the Lomo Saltado Criollo. I had the Arroz Chaufa dish. It is a fried rice with pork belly. There are sausage, bok choy, snow peas and a fried egg on top. Everything goes so well together. Overall it is a very nice fried rice dish. My husband ordered the Lomo Saltado Criollo and it's a steak with potato and white rice. The white rice was spectacular as it's seasoned. The potatoes and the steak were really good too. We will definitely come back and try some other dishes along with desserts.

I've been here twice but this last time I went to get a CHICKEN TORTA ($14+tip) and when I opened the box I was horrified. The bread was super dry but what awaited inside was truly diabolical. There was chicken & slices of cheap deli ham, as it said on the menu, but there was also a whole surprise crappy hotdog hiding inside. It was disgusting & inedible, I live across the street from here and will never go again. Arguably the worst Mexican food I've ever come across in my 40 years on this planet

I had been craving pupusas, and the moment I saw they had a good variety to choose from, I knew he made the right choice. I ordered the pork with rice and beans pupusa and the chicken with beans pupusa, and both absolutely hit the spot. They were filling, flavorful, and comforting in the way only good, handmade pupusas can be. The curtido and sauce tied everything together perfectly. Honestly, I could've just stuck with the pupusas and been completely satisfied. But I was really craving plátanos, so I also ordered a side of plátanos with beans and crema ..and wow. That combination was next level. The sweetness of the plantains with the savory beans and creamy crema was so good that I've decided from now on, that's the only way I want to eat them. The whole meal kept me full and happy for hours. One thing to note: you do bus your own table here, which I personally don't mind at all! just something to be aware of when you visit. After I finished eating, I took a walk down Mississippi Avenue, which made the whole outing even better. It's such a charming stretch -- little boutique shops, a cute pet store, a piercing shop further down the street, and plenty of restaurants and dessert spots if you want to keep the day going. Comforting Salvadorian flavors, this spot is definitely worth stopping by.
