Restaurante Salvadoreno la Familia is a small no-frills type restaurant that despite the business…read morename, they seem to be having a personality crisis as to whether they want to offer Salvadoran food or classic American diner food. Next to pupusas, soup and other Salvadoran foods, they have sandwiches, breakfasts and other menu items that would be more at home on a diner menu than a Salvadoran restaurant menu. Since I am pretty much obsessed with pupusas, I went with three pupusas. They were fairly priced at three dollars a piece. The ordering process is relatively straightforward. You go to the counter and place your order. When it is ready, they bring it to your table. My pupusas were brought to me with the expected slaw and sauce. I find that the best pupusas that I have had here in this country were in Nashville, Tennessee and I found some great pupusas at a flea market on Orange Blossom Trail here in Orlando, Florida, but comparing it to other pupusas that I have tried here in Orlando (other than the ones at the OBT Flea Market), they were good. Not great, not the type that would haunt my dreams, but good. If you are looking for a local place, this place is not a bad place. Not great, but overall decent. Overall, I will give it four stars.

Al revisar mi recibo, noté que me cobraron $1.98 por una botella de agua que no pedí. Cuando pregunté al respecto, el cajero, José, primero dijo que era por el hielo. Cuando mi esposa pidió una aclaración, cambió su respuesta y dijo que era por el agua del grifo filtrada--$1.00 por el agua y $0.98 por impuestos. La comida es excelente, pero asegúrate de revisar tu cuenta antes de pagar. Lamentablemente, parece que cobrar de más a los clientes es algo aceptable aquí. I really enjoy the food here, and the prices are great, so it's disappointing to leave this rating. I've been here a few times, but this visit left a bad impression. When I checked my receipt, I noticed I was charged $1.98 for a bottled water I didn't order. When I asked about it, the cashier, Jose, first said it was for ice. When my wife asked for clarification, he changed his answer, saying it was for filtered tap water--$1.00 for the water and $0.98 for tax. The food is excellent, but be sure to check your bill before paying. Unfortunately, it seems like overcharging customers is acceptable here.

I haven't had Salvadorian in a minute and was craving a good pupusa so I pulled up to Mi Tierra…read morePupuseria & Bakery. As soon as you enter they have a good amount of seating. Plus you can see their selection baked goods. I looked at the menu prior and had a sense of what I wanted. I started with the Pastelito de Pina. First time ever hearing about this. It's solid. The crust was sugar coated and unique. The pineapple filling was smooth with a sweet texture. I mainly came to get the pupusas and try Salvadorian tamales. I got a bean & cheese pupusa and chicken tamale. When I open up my pupusa, instant cheese pull. And it was pretty good. They provide some kind of slaw on the side. I put the slaw and some hot sauce on top...creating the PERFECT bite. I tried some of my sisters shrimp pupusa. Personally I wouldn't order that but it was tasty and flavorful. I've never had a proper tamale so the chicken tamale was my first. The texture is really smooth and light. With seasoned shredded chicken all through out. For my first tamale, it was good. I also tried the fried tamale and it was a whole different story. The exterior was crispy and dark in color. Inside it was sweet with a corn taste. I was like wow. They paired it with a white sauce that was really good. Making me think of sour cream and cream cheese in one. We brought back a tres leches and flan home. The Tres leches was really good. It wasn't soggy and held up well. The flan cake was good but the sugar juices on the bottom tasted burnt. Which was distasteful. Service was okay. I felt like it could've been better. They weren't disrespectful or anything. If our server was new or having a bad day my apologies.

I've had pupusas a few times, but it's been a while so I was really excited to come to Pupusas & Burritos Grill. When I saw they did a unique take on pizza as well I decided I had to get both options to see how they were. It turns out, both were awesome! The pizza was a bit like a typical "Florida Pizza" so to speak in that it wasn't super thin, it wasn't crispy, it wasn't wood oven, etc - it had a fluffy dough and a good amount of sauce and cheese. But what set it apart was the huge flavor! The sauce was really tasty, the dough was tasty and the cheese was good quality and stretchy without being oily. The added pesto all over the pizza was like someone just pureed fresh basil - it was SO good. The best "margarita" style pizza I've had in a long time! The Pupusas were exactly what you'd expect. A nice dough with a cheesy bean mixture inside which was both really tasty and made you want to eat it all in seconds. The side salad / coleslaw was surprisingly good as well, with a great oil and vinegar type dressing that made me eat it all up when I often leave coleslaw uneaten. Overall I loved everything - the girl who took the order was really nice and the food came out fast. Will definitely go back.

No fancy décor, no overdone plating--just honest, soul-warming food the way abuelita would make it. We ordered a few pupusas revueltas and they were thick, cheesy, and crispy at the edges--just how you want 'em. Each bite was loaded with flavor, and they didn't skimp on the fillings either (respectfully, some of y'all out there are serving tortillas with trust issues). The curtido came bagged up and packed with crunch and tang--exactly what you need to cut through that melted cheese goodness. Prices are humble, portions are generous, and while it may be a small spot, the flavors are huge. Whether you're a pupusa purist or just learning what curtido even is--this little cafeteria deserves a big spot on your food map. Bonus points: you'll leave full, happy, and maybe even planning your return trip before you've finished your last bite.

This papuseria is located within the OBT Flea Market. Just like this flea market, there is…read moreabsolutely nothing fancy about Papuseria Alondra. It is literally a shack located at the end of one of the back rows (I guess that it would be Row A) of the flea market and have a few folding tables in the front for diners to grab a seat and eat their meal. The menu is rather small, but to me that is a plus. They offer papusas, which is a Salvadorean food that I am somewhat obsessed with, tacos, tamales, a few classic dishes like carne asada, mojarra fruits, camarones a la diabla, etc. and even hamburgers. This allows the small kitchen the opportunity to put an emphasis on these dishes and excel in them. Despite the humble surroundings, this restaurant does offer servers. Honestly, I do not know if it added to the experience, but I applaud Papuseria Alondra for this step. So, since papusas are an obsession and since this establishment is a papuseria, I ordered two papusas. When the pupusas came out to me, let me assure you, these pupusas are excellent. I had always said that Nashville, Tennessee had the best pupusas that I have ever found here in the states. Every place that offered papusas here in Orlando has been rather disappointing. Now I have found this place and this place will be my go-to for pupusas. These papusas would rival any of my favorite places in Nashville. The price point for each pupusas was $2.50. And this was after Taft. So, not only are these pupusas incredible, they're also an incredible value. I would definitely recommend a visit to this establishment. Yes, it is in a sketchy flea market and yes, it looks rather sketchy itself, but be assured that these papusas are nothing short of fantastic. Who knows, I might return tomorrow for some more.
