    My food demolished
    Eric R.

    I got the #13 Plato de Casa for breakfast. All I have to say is that every bite was beautiful, I'm not a food critic at all but I thought the food was good enough to write this review. Food and service is great, they have a huge menu too. If i'm ever in Vegas again i'm definitely coming back and getting the same thing. Also the ensalada drink is great.

    Tamale

    Food was excellent. I got the pupusas and a tamale. Server was excellent. For something different and local it was satisfying. A lot of tables and everyone is respectful. So no loud or rude customers even when place is full.

    Tortillas

    This is authentic Salvadorian food without a doubt. The menu is plentiful with options, but I stuck with mostly breakfast during my visits. The casamiento (#14) breakfast is outstanding, it has fried plantains with a rice and bean mix --delicious. Huevos con chorizo (#8) is a great choice too. These dishes come with Salvadorian tortillas or bread called pan frances which is like a soft Salvadorian roll. Definitely grab a pupusa or two. My favorite are revueltas, but they have other options too like just cheese or with veggies. Pupusas revueltas are made with beans, cheese, and pork meat inside. Put curtido and salsa on them and the complete flavor profile is there. The salsa is tomato based and not spicy at all. If you are unfamiliar with curtido, imagine a vinegar based cabbage slaw, it's good! The carne encebollada dish also looked excellent. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures out of my own excitement, but this place is a solid choice.

    Was in the mood for pupusas and tried this place for the first time. Big menu offering Mexican and Salvadorean food. This place was extremely busy, people were in and out so I know it has to be good. I ordered a mix of pupusas and they were so good. They were not greasy and the curtido was very tasty. The carne asada burrito has white rice and meat seasoning was really good. Will come back to try other menu items. Service was good . Be prepared to wait if they are busy , but food will not dissapoint. pupusas - salvadorean patties made out of corn dough filled with cheese, beans, loroco and many other fillings curtido - cabbage slaw

    Food Excellent Service Professional and speedy Ambiance feels old school. I've never been to El Salvador, but the music is either en español or old school american jams. I appreciate the experience each and every time I've come in to dine. The guests are always kept to themselves, and its comfortable here. Whether you love papusas or not, come in and try out the items they offer.

    Las Pupusas (any location, but this waa my first time at this specific one) always serves up quality food! I love all of their pupusas but I typically get the revuelta(mixed), zucchini or loroco con queso. If you have never had pupusas before, this is a great place to start! Get any type of pupusa that sounds good to you and it is paired with a delicious cabbage mix and tomato based sauce (I use a ton of both per pupusa). And if you are extra hungry try the yucca frita (fried yucca). It is delicious, if you have never had it it is in the potato family, and if you like potatoes you'll like this! It is super crispy and just a little salty.

    Plantains we're good other than that, hard pass. Terrible customer service, food was bland. Waste of calories and money. Asked for my bill never got it, waited a while at front just to pay.

The latter two are vegetarian and I wanted to go for a vegetarian friendly restaurant just for them. The olive oil tasting was my idea so I also had to choose the restaurant. My LTP and I actually went to a different tapas restaurant about a month ago and we loved it. So I wanted to try one of these again. Our tasting was scheduled to start at 6:00pm and I booked a reservation for 4:00pm through OpenTable. They have a very spacious patio, but due to the excessive heat warning in place at the time, we decided to dine inside. I didn't look at their hours of operation beforehand, so when we walked in, it was empty. Then I noticed that they open at 4:00pm on Saturday's and we were literally the first customers inside. We got a spacious table near the back of the restaurant, where our waiter for the day was Zach. He explained to us that all their food on the menu is based out of Spain, especially the paella, which takes about 40 minutes to cook and is meant to serve about two-four people. We started off with some drinks, where I got the mango margarita, my LTP and my dad respectively got the Atomic Duck and the El Pato Loco Mexican Lager from Able Baker, and my mom and my best friend's mom and stepdad shared a bottle of Chardonnay. While the margarita was on a bit of the sweet side compared to other margaritas I've had, it was still really good and it had a really fruity taste to it. We ordered the following and all six of us shared most of them; short rib pintxo, pork belly pave, patatas bravas, ole mis croquetas, iberico dates, and chicken tinga/braise short rib empanadas. Initially, I ordered just the chicken tinga for myself and my LTP was supposed to get the braise short rib, but my plate had chicken tinga and braise short rib together. That was ok, though, because both the chicken and short rib were absolutely delicious. The short rib pintxo came on a stick, with the rib falling off the stick as I took the first bite out of it. The pork belly pave was cooked perfectly. The patatas brava were spicy, but I would say 'good' spicy. The croquetas were overall one of my favorites; when I sliced it down the middle with my fork, the mashed potato filling spilled out of it. Hands down, Tres was a fantastic restaurant. The portions weren't too big or too small and everything here was so good. Would love to sit on their patio when the weather becomes cooler!

    Amazing First Visit, Disappointing Second One! Be careful when ordering!…read more I heard so many great things about the infamous churrasco at this restaurant, so I made the trip and ordered it. My first visit (May 16th) was outstanding! The churrasco was a decent, juicy, and tender NY Strip Steak with perfect thickness, served over yuca fries, sweet plantains, and potatoes. The chimichurri on the side wasn't the authentic Argentinian recipe, but it was still good. I ordered it medium rare, exactly how I like it, and it was amazing, tasty, and delicious. (See photo #1.) Today (June 19th), I decided to stop by again--but it was a huge disappointment. The churrasco I received didn't taste like NY Strip Steak and tasted like the regular cheap meat you get when you go to a bad cheap Mexican restaurant and order the famous carne asada plate. It wasn't cooked to the medium temperature I ordered. The cut was extremely thin, almost like Carne Asada or Chuck Roast (the kind used for their $9.99 corrientazo or the meat they served on the "Bandeja Paisa plate" . It was dried, rubbery, and had no taste whatsoever. I mentioned the issue to the waiter and even showed him the meat while asking for the bill. He told me, "I'm sorry, today was your unlucky day , I will let them know"?. This is Unacceptable. A good restaurant management should approach the customer and replace the meal or not even charging ! He acknowledged it was completely wrong when he saw the meat and apologized sincerely. That honesty was appreciated, but it's stories like this that make a restaurant lose its reputation and push customers away. In my case, I'm now afraid to come back and waste my money. First photo: My amazing churrasco from May 5th. Photos 2 & 3: The disappointing churrasco from today (June 19th). I hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously and improves consistency. A great restaurant can easily become a great and reliable one with better attention to detail. Maybe the cooks picked the wrong meat or sliced it wrong? Just look at images 2 & 3 and compare the big difference--thin and dried! I'm a bit upset about wasting my money for pretty much garbage.
