We accidentally found this place while on vacation. I had bean and cheese, pork and cheese and a chicken and cheese. The bean was a little burnt but the pork and chicken were flavorful and amazing. The slaw was favored with jalapeños and was more carrot than cabbage and had spicy amazing flavor. The sauce was pretty plain but the slaw made up for it. I was thankful for a local that interpreted for me because I could not have ordered without him. Don't be scared of gas station food! Be adventurous!

One has to look for pupusas in Asheville, but I found some on the west side of town. They were out…read moreof some items-notably the dessert empanadas-but the menu here did have a decent range of marked vegetarian options. It is mostly dairy as is common for this cuisine. Ordering two pupusas and a tamale yielded a lighter meal than I'd anticipated, with these being among the smaller such items I've ever had. The taste was solid, but I wasn't as impressed as I was hoping to be.

The pupusas and agua Frescas of the day are also totally addicting. I try to order other items, but I can't seem to stop myself from getting these three as a base. Always friendly servers, as it is a family owned business, and you feel at home and welcomed in the laid back dining room. Be sure to stop here & then take yourself to the goodwill bins for some treasures! (Or vise versa depending on how hard you work to find said goodies at the bins)

Located along Market near University, it's in the old The Cottage building. The bright green sign…read moreout front is easy to see. Parking is tight in front with only a few spaces. Since they are angled, you can only get to the ones near the entrance you use. There is a lot more parking behind the building. I didn't notice specific handicapped spaces, but you'll want to park in front if you have mobility issues. We entered through the front door. The foyer is brightly lit and colorful. We were greeted on entering and told we could sit anywhere. There is seating on either side, as well as down several steps to the bar area, which also has booth seating. The tables are closely spaced, so it would be difficult to maneuver if it was crowded but we were the only customers on our side. Initially, the background music was rather loud, so we picked a spot away from speakers. The music was later turned down to a manageable level. Our server came for our drink order right away. FYI, they did not have unsweet tea. He returned with our drinks quickly, but we needed more time to decide what we wanted to order. The menu is a mix of Honduran, Salvadoran, and Mexican. Most items are explained on the menu, but we also had to ask our server about several items. We decided on the Tajadas con Pollo (plantains with chicken), the Baleadas Especialies (sort of a burrito but folded instead of rolled), and an order of pupusas (pork and cheese, jalapeno and cheese, and loroco, a salvadoran flower). The Tajedas con pollo was a full plate of food. The protein was about a 1/3 section of chicken on a bed of plantains. There was also slaw and a nice pico. Although the chicken was a bit dry, the flavor was excellent. The plantains were nicely cooked, and the pico had a solid spicy bite. The Baleadas Especiales comes folded in a large tortilla, although the tortilla has a different consistency than a typical Mexican-style tortilla. It is more robust and takes a knife to cut if you want to eat it that way. Otherwise, just pick it up like a burrito. I selected beef as the protein, and it was excellent. Fillings also included avocado and a scrambled egg. This was more than filling, and very tasty. The pupusas were wonderful as well. The pork and jalapeno fillings were flavorful. The loroco was interesting. It had a veggie taste, but with a more earthy flavor. I would certainly order this again. We also found they have a drive through along the side of the building. There is also an entrance there as well, so if you park in the rear you do not need to come to the front of the building to enter. This restaurant is a great addition to the Johnson City restaurant scene. The flavors are different from the typical Mexican spices. The menu is definitely worth exploring.

We came here two days in a row for lunch and we'll always associate our time in Kingsport with Latin Love. It's that good! Family-owned with great staff.

There is street parking on both sides of the street as well as around the corner. Walking in, the interior is bright and vibrant with many colors. The somewhat limited seating is all tables. We were greeted as we entered and told to sit anywhere. There was only one other table occupied at the time we got there for an early dinner. The very personable owner came by and talked to us for a while and explained the menu. We learned it is family run with their son being a trained chef running the kitchen. In addition to the excellent explanation of the menu items, they also have rotating pictures on a TV screen along the wall so you can see what you are getting. We started with a pork tamale as an appetizer. This was brought out in about five minutes. The first bite was amazing. The corn masa was very flavorful and the pork was fork tender. We could have eaten several more of these as they were amazingly good. As a lover of pupusas, my selection was one each of chorizo, chicken, and loroco filling. All three were excellent. Each was well-filled with flavorful ingredients which could have stood on their own but were enhanced in the pupusa. The accompanying slaw was excellent. There was a hot sauce available which I would rate at about a 7 out of 10, so definitely bringing the heat, but I could not stop adding to to the pupusas because it tasted so good. The chicken stew special was amazingly good. Although simple, the flavors were exceptional. The salad was crisp and fresh. Latin Love is a hidden gem which needs to be discovered. The menu continues to change so there will always be something new to try. They have a solid foundation to build on and have the passion to make sure each customer has a wonderful experience.
