This place is a hidden gem and not only does Salvadoran cuisine also cakes and bakery items !! Check it out

Pupusas
Mauricio V.

Walking in I was greeted by a friendly woman in the front. She gave me the menu and let me know that I was to order in the front. I had pupusas before but never with rice flour. I decided to get 2 revuelatas and 2 de chicharon con queso. The rice flour ones where not my favorite they where a bit to chewy for me the flavor was great but the texture was a no for me. Now the maiz one were incredible. I burned my mouth trying to eat them too fast. The curtido which is a mixture or cabbage onion and carrot all pickled gave the pupusa a refreshing taste along with a crunch giving it a different texture. The food did take a little while to come out about 15 to 20 minutes. But it was really fresh so I cannot complain. The venue was clean and very well organized. Minimal decorations. I'll be returning to try more items

Very expensive pupusas and they aren't even that great . I would recommend going to el patio in Seattle. Owner is very rude . I asked about price and she got defensive. We are not asking for free items we come in to pay for food and a service . You don't just open a restaurant and think people will keep coming with that miserable attitude. I get why it was empty and always is . I didn't like the way she yelled at me so I left and she didn't want to refund the money . I literally paid more here for meals for 3 people when I could have gone to Cheesecake Factory and fed my family of 6 for the same price . This is what happens when you try to help small businesses. Ridiculous.

Bomb pupusas!!! Curtido was of the hook too!

Been passing by this restaurant and have been meaning to try it out along with all the other restaurants in this complex. First glance, easy to miss being where it is close to the various street junctions. Plus, all the restaurants here appear very quaint. Nonetheless, the people running the restaurant are very friendly and courteous. Entering the restaurant I was greeted and immediately serviced. Leaving the restaurant, I was thanked and asked to be seen again. As for the food I ordered, I had the Carne Asada and Pastelitos de Carne. Both were very delicious. Yet, the Carne Asada certainly was more flavorful; naturally over Pastelitos. Definitely intend to return and try out their other dishes.

This place was a nice find! Very large eating spaces with a lot of table size choices! A few TVs…read morefor sports viewing! Even had a bar with seating. The staff were very authentic and sweetly attentive! My grilled steak was quite tender and tasty! the refried beans were actually some of the best refried beans I've ever had! The rice was tasty as well! I strongly recommend if you crave Honduran, Mexican, El Salvadoran , Guatemalan, or even Costa Rican dishes! You won't be disappointed!!! Street parking! Clean restrooms!

It's rare that you find a restaurant that serves dishes across a coagulation of countries. Normally…read moreyou have Mexican restaurants, Cuban restaurants, Colombian restaurants, etc... - but this place is truly a Central American restaurant. There are dishes from practically every country in that region here. I imagine this feels like home for a lot of people. I'm not even from those countries and I still feel the vibe of being local. It's a place where the staff seem to recognize a lot of folks who come in and chat, and the people who eat here seem like they come here all the time. To start off, I had the pupusa, which was filled with chicharron and cheese. I've had pupusas in Costa Rica before, and this one was so much better than what I had there. It came out hot, leopard-spotted on the outside from the grill marks. When I cut it open, the inside was practically steaming. The melted cheese and chicharron were perfect together. The masa on the outside was fantastic as well. For my main dish, I had the pollo frito from Honduras. This was simply a behemoth. It comes out and you're like....woah. The scale is truly staggering. It consists of a quarter of fried chicken, served over a massive bed of fried plantains and pickled cabbage. It's covered in so much sauce you don't even see the chicken at the start. While cool, I'm ultimately mixed on this dish. The chicken is solid - the inside is juicy, but the outside doesn't quite retain its crispiness - due to the moisture from the sauce and pickled cabbage. It's also not really meaty - as it felt more bone than meat to me. The way the dish is presented makes it very difficult to eat with hand, but due to the bone, cutting with a fork and knife isn't great either. The positives were the plantains were really damn good though. Eating that with the sauce and cabbage was very addicting. I was able to finish the chicken - but half the plantains and the rest were still remaining. I think there's just too much other stuff on here. I was super full - but I can always make room for Tres Leches. And this one was huge - I was expecting a single slice, and I got a mini-tray of cake. It was really good - not one of the absolute best tres leches I've had - but done really well regardless. The cake underneath the frosting layer was soaked super well. I could only eat a bit before taking this home. I paid around 50 dollars in total, including tax and tip. Was certainly not super cheap, but the portion sizes are really high. The pupusas especially were an excellent deal. Overall, the main dish was a bit of a miss, but the pupusas, tres leches, and atmosphere makes me want to come back. 8.5/10

My boyfriend and I stopped by cause they had an offer for a free drink, tamale, pupusa or…read morequesadilla grande and we wanted to try it out. We opted for the drink as we were heading to a friend's for dinner. I got the ensalada while my boyfriend got the horchata and I appreciated how the cashier asked if we wanted ice or not. We also saw some cute Halloween decorated conchas and saw that for four of them was 9.95 so got that to share with our friends. The conchas were delicious and not too sweet. There was plenty of parking near the location. When you enter, you see the restaurant half which is a lovely, cozy space that can seat many customers of all party sizes. They have a section for napkins, utensils and to go boxes too. If you go to the left, that is the bakery as well as small store of different goodies. They had all types of pastries, cakes, and snacks that you can choose from. The prices seem fair. When we entered the bakery side, the employees welcomed us and told us to let them know if we have any questions. Very friendly and quick service! We definitely want to come back to try their pastries, cakes, and food again. They also do have a point system that you can sign up for to get discounts and even a birthday reward too.

Salvadoran Bakery is a good spot if you're looking for a casual dining or cake…read more While in Seattle we were celebrating a birthday and the person I was with really wanted to get a cake from here. You can order cakes 2 days before hand but they also had plenty of ready to go cakes available when we came that day. They had big and small cakes in all different flavors. However, they specialize in different versions of their tres leches cakes, including their popular mango one. Before I tell you about the cake we got, I have to mention one of their coconut cream filled puff pastries I got there. It was easily one of the best freakin thing I had in Seattle. I don't even remember what it was called but it was a large sugar coated flaky puff pastry sandwich that had the best coconut house made whip cream inside. It was insanely good and you need to get it if they have it. Delicious! As for our cake, we went with a small 6 inch Piña Colada tres leche cake ($50). We were a little disappointed the guy behind the counter didn't speak English so it made it difficult to tell him what we wanted. We honestly would have ordered much more items if we were able to communicate. It was also a little disappointing that during our short smooth drive back to our hotel that two of the decorative cherries on the cake had fallen off. Not a big deal since I popped them back on but I didn't feel like that was something I had to do. Everyone we shared the cake with enjoyed it. It was very moist and definitely on the sweet side. It was two layers and the pineapple flavor wasn't overwhelming. The small cake was perfect to share with about 10 people. I did think the cake pricing is a little high but not too bad. Besides their full bakery they are also have a full dining menu and places to sit in the restaurant. They offer all sorts of Salvadoran foods. But like I mentioned communicating in English was difficult with the man there so we didn't order. Although I want to try their empanadas. Parking here was also easy since they have their own lot.

I wanted to try this place for a small lunch while out working and my test for this kind of cuisine…read moreis a Papusa. Like Mexican restaurants if you can make a good taco, a lot of the other food is worthwhile. I got it to go and when I got to eat I basically had to deconstruct it so I pick out the bad parts. I ordered a chicharon con queso papusa. I really know chicharrones well and regularly buy them from small carnicerias and Philippine delis and though the style is somewhat different from place to place I know what is good and not. This was a bunch of fat gristle mostly with a weird cheese consistency. My first clue in this horribly dangerous neighborhood was the outside but I didn't trust my gut. Instead I punished it! I'm not sure if El Patio is named after the big outdoor area in front that is right on the worst part of Aurora with hookers and homeless but it's a horribly run down building. That doesn't always deter me if the food is good. I also felt like they don't like white people or perhaps the attitude from the lady was just because I got a small order to go?? I've noticed now that their reviews going back to say 8 years ago show generally good reviews and pictures of outside that show brightly painted patio type seating and umbrellas and a clean exterior. Fast forward to now and the place is a dump that shows that they don't care. I truly felt that in their service and food and many more recent reviews say the same. I call this "alternatives to traditional Mexican food" and there are so many other great choices for that in our area!

This is the best burrito in all of Tacoma/Lakewood!!! I tell everyone to try them. People don't know what they are missing, because they are just getting pupusas. Who would think they would have great burritos. So, these are not like any other burritos, because they are not Mexican. They use their delicious black beans, their white rice with a few little veg, sour cream, onions, cilantro, you can get really good chile sauce if you want it spicy. The sauce is so good. No cheese... can you believe it? Cheese is not even needed. You can get chicken or carne asada, or like we got, no meat and they will add avocado slices. I really wanted no meat, and platano frito added. This is what we used to get, and it's great. They should add a no meat option to the menu, and also the platano option. Everyone that loves unique delicious burritos, come check this place out. The guy that took my order was friendly, and even made our burrito half no cilantro. Thanks! They get busy.
