I love that everything is made fresh and with great pricing! I had the Pupusas de Camaron, Pastelitos de Carne, & Horchata! My food came out hot & everything was delicious & the horchata? chef's kiss! The pupusas were so flavorful & the shrimp was perfectly seasoned (10/10)! The pastelitos de carne were my favorite, so delicious and filling! I'm looking forward to returning to the restaurant and would highly recommend this place!

These pupusas were good. However, a bit pricey and couldn't really taste the chicharron. The chicken tamal had good flavor but was lacking chicken. The plantains were a bit too oily for me. It's hard to find good Salvadoran food in this side of town so I'll probably be back to try other things.

The flavors were rich and authentic, with just the right balance of crispiness and melt-in-your-mouth goodness.

They advised us on the food selection and let us sample a soup before we committed to order full portion. The restaurant was clean. Food and drinks: Tradicional cooking methods and flavours in every dish. Good selection of pupusas with various fillings. The pupusas were well cooke, not greasy and evenly filled with cheese. The yucca was fried perfectly, crispy on the outside and soft inside. The soup with tripe was flavoursome and hearty. Ensalada drink was really good too. You can also buy here ready made sweets, cheeses and bottled drinks. Pricing: $$ - definitely worth trying.

It's often said that sequels don't live up to the original (#1), but the second location of Lazo's…read moreis far and away their best location. There are Salvadoran spots all over the city, but I'm semi-convinced that one of the best is right here in Stafford. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but upon entering the doors, one will find a spacious restaurant with a TV or two with plenty of seating. The service is prompt and kind. There is no pretension here, which is my favorite kind of vibe. Aside from the desayuno (breakfast) special, which comes with a tamal, plantains, chorizo, eggs, with cream and queso at $14, there is nothing on the breakfast menu that exceeds $10. I'm sure prices were friendlier before, but this place really does an excellent job in stretching the value for most food. The main dishes (plato fuertes) are all around $13, unless one wants the parrillada (meat platter) for two, which comes at a cool $30. After ordering a handful of different pupusas, a couple of tamales, and a couple of drinks, my bill was $14 flat. The pupusas themselves are excellent. They're wonderfully grilled with just the right amount of char and filling. The runaway winners are the mixtas, which are filled with beans and pork and are excellent with the accompanying slaw and spicy vinegar. While the corn tamale was a bit too dry for my taste, the addition of crema was huge. I thought the chicken tamal was significantly better, and was texturally an excellent antojito (#2). I would highly recommend folks give their pastelitos a shot, as well as tostadas and baleadas during breakfast. Pro tip: come for their happy hour, which is on Sundays between 4 PM and 7 PM where pupusas are $1.80 each. There is a max of 15 per person. ____________ (#1) The OG: https://www.yelp.com/biz/lazo-1-pupuseria-y-restaurante-houston (#2) A snack.
