Mofongo with pork
Cristy R.

Drove from NoVa to this little place based on Google reviews and boy are we glad we did. We were greeted warmly, the waitress explained the dishes expertly and when the food came out? WOW. The presentation was amazing to match the flavor of the meal. My daughter got the mofongo with pork, her boyfriend got the shrimp tacos, I got the ropa vieja with salad and tostones, my son got the lomo saltado. We loved how they had a mix of foods from El Salvador, Cuba, Peru, and Puerto Rico. Everything was obviously made to order, served fresh and hot. We loved La Tembuleña and look forward to returning!

Great little spot hidden away. The steak pupusas were delicious. Will definitely stop again!

WHAT A FIND! Tucked next to a gas station on Route 11 in Stephens City, this little gem ("since…read more2019") has a pleasant interior with nice murals and both tables and booths. We had tostados -- an appetizer that makes a nice light lunch -- and a "chicken salad" that is really a generous wreath of chicken strips (unbreaded) glazed with taste sauce and sprinkled with queso fresco. A bargain! Can't wait to go back...

While it's often talked about like a Mexican restaurant, it didn't really feel like one once there…read morethe menu and focus seemed much more centered around pupusas than traditional Mexican. I ended up getting a burrito. The food itself was okay, but nothing that really stood out. The burrito came with rice and beans, which honestly were probably the best part of the meal. Everything else was definitely edible, just lacking that flavor punch you usually expect when you're craving Mexican food. Cleanliness was another downside. The space didn't feel very well kept, which made the overall experience less enjoyable. The biggest issue, though, was the service. The woman working there was nice, but we barely saw her at all. On top of that, the wait time was rough it took over 50 minutes for our food to come out, which felt excessive for what we ordered. Overall, it wasn't terrible, but between the long wait, cleanliness issues, and the food not really living up to expectations, it's hard to say I'd go out of my way to come back.
