Just focus on the pupusas! Hand made to order and It's a spot run by women from El Salvador. When we first walked in, the most delicious aroma of onions, peppers and spices being simmered somewhere in the back of the shop made our mouths water instantly. The menu says $8 for 2 or $11 for 3... They mean you get either get 2 or 3 pupusas in an order of the same kind, not 2 or 3 varieties for $8 or $11 in an order, make sense? Their Revuelta pupusa was tender and seasoned just so on the filling, their Birria pupusa was SPOT ON! The broth served with them was fantastic! Their chicharron pupusa was again soft with a nice crunchy filling as well. The house made salsa roja is beyond delicious, I wanted to drink the bowl of it that was served with the pupusas! Horchata was one of the best we've had too on LI! It's a bit lackluster for decor and seating but it's clean and the food is fresh and damn delicious!

My tacos were decent but had so many bones it was annoying. The menu prices on the walls have not been updated.. it says $8 for the tacos but I actually paid $16 which is double the menu price. I guess we can blame inflation but the prices on the wall should be reflected correctly. I can see myself stopping in here again they have a lot of great snack options It's also way bigger than it looks on the outside

(It was over 90 degrees outside) Then I went to the ladies room and there was no toilet paper. The server finally approached us and we complained about the ac and he said it was turned all the way up. Ok. So we ordered drinks and they were out of a couple of items so they couldn't make what I wanted. He came back with 2 easy margaritas and he told us we could leave if we were still hot. It was almost like he didn't want us there. We didn't know what to do but then our other three friends joined us and they said, "Why is it so hot in here?" But we decided to stay. The food was decent but I would never go back.
