The rice and beans are good sides to take home and I can still get 1-2 meals out of them by adding my own cooking to it. It's not overly greasy or salty which is something I always appreciate. The protein portions could be improved by at least .5x. The ladies are always very nice and overall it's a cute small business.

They paying thousands each month to these Foodies for Fake Reviews and Photos. We came from Cleveland to Detroit for a concert and wanted to take the opportunity for my partner to try authentic Colombian food for the first time. For that reason, the disappointment was all the greater. We ordered three empanadas, two buñuelos, and two hot dogs. Unfortunately, the food fell far short of our expectations. The empanadas had a thick, raw dough; the buñuelos were undercooked, heavy, and tasteless; and the hot dogs were not only disappointing compared to the pictures, but also in taste, which was nothing like what one would expect. However, the most unpleasant part of the whole experience wasn't just the food, but the way our dissatisfaction was handled. We were told to call the owner, but instead of receiving a professional response or at least a willingness to listen, we were met with a defensive, offensive, and completely inappropriate attitude. We were given the impression that we were the kind of customers who just want to eat and not pay, a disrespectful and inappropriate comment, especially considering that the food was practically untouched due to its poor quality. And to be perfectly clear: the problem isn't paying $87. The real problem, in any business, is having to pay for something that was inedible because it was badly prepared. Every customer expects to receive a quality product for their money, and that simply didn't happen here. Reading other reviews and, above all, the owner's responses to negative comments, it's clear that this isn't an isolated incident, but rather a consistent pattern of unprofessional and completely uncritical behavior. As tourists, we left with a very negative impression of the place. This restaurant doesn't represent the quality or flavor of Colombian food, nor does it reflect the warmth and respect that usually characterize our people, and it definitely doesn't offer acceptable customer service. A very disappointing experience in every way.

We went to La Cuscatleca over the weekend after trying Salvadoran food from a place in Ann Arbor…read morethe previous day. I didn't really like the food there so I was a bit confused whether it was that place in particular, or if I didn't like Salvadoran tamales and pupusas in general. I figured going to La Cuscatleca would help settle the question. La Cuscatleca is one of those marketplace/restaurant combos so common around SW Detroit and Dearborn. In the front is the register where you can pick up prepared drinks and tamales. The left half of the store is dedicated to selling Salvadoran sundries and food items. A bunch of ingredients and spices I have never seen before are stuffed into hand labeled bags and adorn the multiple shelves. The grocery area is quite crowded, with only maybe 2.5 feet in between each aisle. The restaurant order window and kitchen is in the rear, and the right half of the store is the eating area with a couple of tables. Ordering is pretty easy but requires you to know at least a little bit of Spanish - you place the order at the window, then find a seat and they'll bring the food out for you. After you finish, you'll get a handwritten bill, which you take up to the front register to pay. Again, just be aware that the people here speak little to no English. Pupusas ($3.50 each) - We tried three on the menu: revueltas, loroco, and chipilin. I think we screwed up the order with our one month Duolingo level Spanish because we weren't brought any salsa or curtido on the side. Still, these pupusas were super rich, completely stuffed to the brim with cheese and the other ingredients, with the cheese actually spilling out the sides and caramelizing a bit on the griddle. The salsa and curtido could have helped a bit to cut through some of the richness, but I think the pupusas in general are top quality. The revueltas is the most familiar with some nice refried beans spread on the interior. I wonder what the difference between the revueltas and the frijol queso is? (5/5) The loroco adds a very nice mild vegetal quality - the are very generous with the filling of cheese and whole loroco buds so you can taste and appreciate the flavor. This was my favorite of the three. (5/5) The chipilin is really, really pungent. It's kind of like spinach with the mouthfeel, but way more pungent in flavor. It's tender and not stringy or tough at all, but it's just a little too pungent for me. (4/5) Tamales ($3.33 each) - We got one puerco, one pollo, one pisque. These are wrapped in foil, then a layer of banana leaf, and finally the filling. As with a typical Salvadoran tamale, these are soft and tender masa, almost like a custard texture. The masa is an absolute flavor bomb - it's meaty, savory, full of umami. For the pisque, there's refried beans added only in the center. The beans are pretty dark looking for refried beans and has a bit of bitterness/acridity to it like it has burned bits mixed in. I'm not sure if it really was burned or it should taste like this. If it didn't have the burned taste, this would be more of a 4/5, but as it stands, it's a (1/5). The pollo has some tender potato and green pepper mixed in and the chicken maintains moisture well (4/5). The puerco has pressure cooked pork mixed in. They include the rib bones and cartilage, giving an unpleasing texture on the interior, but overall the meat portion is pretty tender and juicy (3/5). Atol de Elote ($4.50) - Woah, this is one seriously thick and rich drink. It's like drinking condensed milk mixed with corn and cinnamon. Or like a drinkable pudding or custard. Super sweet and super filling. It's served warm, so it seems great for a cold day (4/5). Bathrooms: One single room behind the eating area. La Cuscatleca is very popular with the local Salvadoran community for good reason. The pupusas in particular are hand made fresh and are absolutely delicious. While we were there, we saw several other parties all enjoying large bowls of soups and stews. We'll definitely have to come back to try those dishes and some of the other authentic specialties.

I don't particularly care for anything mango flavored, but this had just the right amount of mango, and wasn't overly sweet, either. As for our food, we ordered fried plantains, 2 pork tamales, and 3 pupusas (flounder, chicken, and pork). The fried plantains came with beans and sour cream. The plantains were enjoyable. The beans were mashed so finely, I couldn't help but use them as a dip for the plantains. The pork tamales came in banana leaves, as Salvadoran tamales typically do. The tamales weren't as firm as I wound've liked, and could've used more pork, as well. All 3 of the pupusas included cheese. Of the 3, the pork was my favorite. The pork also included cilantro, which added a flavor the other 2 pupusas lacked. My second favorite was the chicken, which also included squash. Lastly, the flounder was my least favorite, but was still worth trying. In a nutshell, Pupusería Y Restaurante Salvadoreño was worth checking, and somewhere I can see myself returning to.
