    Interior artwork

    This place offers all the delicious flavors of El Salvador, in one bright, clean location. The shop is in a convenient location with great parking, too. I ordered pupusas, plantains, and tamarind juice. The sides on the plantains were fabulous--up until now, I had always had sour cream on the side but not refried beans. Both are so good! I also had a pupusa revuelta plus a veggie pupusa, and I am looking forward trying more things from the menu next time I'm in the area. The inside of the restaurant is so bright and beautiful. Kudos to whoever picked out the bright coral wall color and the colorful paintings. It was a pleasure to wander around and look at details of the artwork.

    Curtido is terrible but Pupusas are great...really wish they would change how they make it...truly nasty stuff been to over ten Pupusas restaurants and the way they season it is not correct. I say this with respect and pray you change the receipt. Please for heaven sakes it time to change how this item you put in every Pupusas order has to be tastier...please

    Yuca con chicharrón and ensalada de frutas

    Excellent customer service! The food is delicious. Definitely the best pupusas in the area along with their Yuca con chicharrón and pescado frito! 100% recommended!

    Tacos Salvadorenos de Carne
    Krystal A.

    I ordered from here yesterday and while everything had a great flavor, I couldn't get away from the corn tortillas. I like flour and didn't notice that tidbit of info when I was ordering. I had a cheese pupusa which was very delicious! I also ordered Tacos Salvadorenos de Carne. I ended up dumping everything out of the corn tortillas and eating that with the pupusa. I'm sure pupusas have corn in them as well but I just can't do corn tortillas like a soft taco. Because the flavor of everything was so good yesterday, I decided to order from there again today. Today I ordered Tacos al Carbon de Pollo on flour tortillas . No beans with extra rice. THIS. THIS IS AMAZING!! I've done delivery both days and to be honest, it's the only reason I decided to try this place. I'm stuck at work, not able to leave. It's my new favorite go to for lunch and I'm very excited to try more things on the menu.

    Food: Tried the shrimp cocktail (shrimp, avocado, tomato,…read morechili, and onion), birria sope, beef gordita, and birria tacos. Everything was flavorful and fresh. My favorites were definitely the birria tacos and the sope. Price: 3 birria tacos for $12 -- pretty fair pricing for the portion and quality. Atmosphere: Very packed, which is usually a good sign, but still nice and organized. Plenty of seating and the restaurant was decorated really well. Family-friendly atmosphere too. Service: Customer service was great and everyone was friendly and helpful. Overall: Good food, fair prices, lots of options, and a nice environment. Definitely would come back!

We drove out of our way to try this place and honestly it was a bit confusing to figure out where to order. There are two lines and it's not very clear which one we are supposed to get in for what. Especially because some of the items are duplicate on both menus. I noticed there was barely anyone in the "restaurant" line. Anyway, we sort of got a little bit of everything and wasn't completely brown away. I liked that they let you add your own toppings, and all of the sauces that have available were great. But the taco meats all sort of lacked a bit of flavor. Carnitas are my favorite but these were a bit inconsistent. Some pieces were very nice and juicy where others were hard to chew. I will say the place is very clean and spacious. They're pretty quick with your order as well. The food was lacking flavor for me personally. Overall, I don't think I would go back.

    They have an entire concha wall which is always an indication of good things to come. I had lunch here and their food was spot on.

    Ordered from here thru UberEats, which was hanging a buy one, get one free sale on empanadas... The…read morelisting says 3 patties stuffed with your choice of meat and lists "beef" or "chicken"... I got one set of beef and one set of chicken. The cost was usually $10.99 each, thru the app at least - you know how they like to mark things up in the delivery apps.... I also ordered a side of sour cream, which at $3.50 per serving is ridiculously expensive... You can buy a whole container at the store for that! For $3.50 I would usually get a whole side of something (corn, fries, onion rings, etc) at a restaurant..... The empanadas were pretty good. It was flavorful and seasoned well.. it was slightly spicy, at just the right amount, not over powering... glad I had some sour cream handy! The portions were good and reasonable. However, $3.50 for such a small container of sour cream is a bit absurd. Should be $1, or $1.50. Not sure what the yellow sauce was that came with the empanadas, but it smelled decent and didn't have any strong scents or flavors to identify it. I found the meal to be very enjoyable! I would order again.

    I came here with my partner and ordered the parrillada familiar. The two of us have tried a lot of…read moresalvi restaurants in Manassas and nova and are no strangers to the cuisine or similar mixed grill dishes meant for the table. This item listed a variety of meats and side dishes to be served for 3 people. For starters the side dishes were served on individual plates as you would receive a standard side of rice and beans. So only two plates were served because there were two of us but we paid for a dish that serves 3. At the $80+ price tag we expected leftovers. The amount of guacamole each of us got was less than Chipotle gives you on a bowl. For the price point I am expecting an appetizers worth of guacamole. Because if I were to add up the cost of the individual items on the menu that made up the parrillada familiar I don't see how I got any value here. Additionally for a dish that included ribs as one of the meats to serve for three people, we literally got 3 ribs... Just between my gf and I we almost finished everything on the plate. Which again is suspicious for a dish that is supposed to serve 3 people. None of the meats were really stand out. To be clear the food wasn't bad but it was definitely not the best I had ever had and for what they charge I admit I was curious if they were able to back it up since similar dishes elsewhere are a fraction of the price. To top it off they charge an addition fee for paying with a card for a meal that ended up being over $90 before the tip. And they do not offer free water in a cup, we were forced to buy and drink from plastic bottles. The server was nice and attentive but the atmosphere was incredibly loud based just on the volume of the music, not even the other guests. There is definitely a lot to improve on here. It may be worth checking it out if you are having drinks is at the bar which is where most other patrons were sitting, but for food especially for value Manassas alone has so many other options to try.
