THE BEST SALVADOREAN FOOD!!!! Its so hard to find real authentic and delicious food but when I tell you this is it! This is it! Their pupusas are the BEST I’ve ever had and can’t be compared. I almost cried just enjoying every bite. I had the pupusas, tamal de elote frito, and platanitos fritos. My go to place from now on, loved the balada music playing in the background 😌

This place is #1 in authentic Salvadorian food in all of Houston. The seafood soups and pupusas are my favorite to go plates every time I go. The food is made fresh hot out the oven every single time with high quality ingredients trust me you’ll taste the difference coming here. The waitresses are very attentive and friendly.

Ordered pupusas revueltas to go. Made to order, so it took a while. Food was fresh and hot.

These are the best tasting Popusas ever. No lie. I live almost an hour away. When I do show up I never buy less than 15 so that I can eat them for 2 or 3 days. I have tried different spots but nothing compares. I've been coming here for over 10 years. Since they were across the street at the smaller place. Do yourself a favor and try them. Trust me.

Food was delicious. The salvadorian tamales are very tasty, tamale made of corn was also good. We went again because my wife loved the chicken tamales salvadorian and this time I got plantains bananas with cream salvadorian style and blended beans. Its was delicious if I may say. Here are some pictures of it. I would recommend this place if you want to eat something foreign and good....this is the spot. #TrueRatings Please Like and Share.

First timer. Good pupusas revueltas. Good pan de pollo, (although im used to cabbage instead of lettuce & no steamed type veggies on top). I will return soon for the breakfast plate and seafood soup w crema.

I was in the area and wanted to eat a pupusa. I began with a fruit salad drink. It's quite refreshing and not too sweet. I had a cheese and loroco pupusa. It was quite good and not greasy. But it could have been cheesier. The cabbage (curtido) is a bit spicy. Once I got my pupusa the waitress never returned. I ordered a corn tamal to go. I proceeded to go pay at cash register as didn't get my check. I received my tamal at the cash register. It comes with cream. The cream could have been tastier. I'd give the pupusa another chance.

Really good pupusas, I should know I grew up eating them, my mom is Salvadoran ! The pupusas here have the right ratio of cheese to masa. Get the chicharon and the cheese with lorroco (an edible flower found in El Salvador)

Food is great but the service is terrible. There is only 2 customers in the whole restaurant and it takes 1 hour and then the food cold. It use to be great but now it’s just not good. The waiters seems to be the problem because there use to great waiters idk what happened but service is important Also side note they have terrible service but will make you pay a gratuity for a table for 2

Food delicious, takes forever. Needs management. My complain is that their menu dish "Papas salvadoreñas" has been downgraded to a small box to go. They used to have the larger box for 6 dollars. Which is good. Asking you guys to go back to that, that small box has almost no fries. Thats why my rating is low. Pupusas are delicious.

Very good food I came to eat here twice and loved it but they never answer their phone so I literally can never place an order….. I can only leave my job a few minutes to pick up lunch so my only option is to call and place order….. I’ve called 4 different days several times and no answer….

Food was good, but I wouldn’t come again due to food being too pricey, I have been to other Salvadorian restaurants and they are cheaper and delicious. Service wasn’t great either.

Be aware they think they have the right to automatically charge gratuity and we were only a group of 3!!!!! So a $39 bill went to $51 !! Absolutely ridiculous I'm guessing because people tip based on service and there terrible so they don't get tips. They also charge to use a card which is illegal look up the durbin act.They will be reported to the texas attorney general's for breaking the law.

It's unbelievable that a place offering delicious food has such terrible customer service. Now I understand why I was alone when I visited. I traveled almost an hour for this awful service. The waitress didn't even attend to my table and handed over her shift, leaving an absurd bill because she added a tip for two people. From a $64 bill, I ended up paying $80.43. I absolutely do not recommend this place.

The pupusas are drowned in grease and the the curtido & salsa taste terrible.

Dora Galdamez

The pupusas were not good, the curtido was served to us, and it seems like the same container goes around different tables, which is nasty because you use the same fork you are eating with to serve it. The place was not too clean. We did not touch the curtido. If we could, i would give it a ZERO. Never going back again.

The waitresses take forever to bring the food, the food is not good anymore not to mention the cleanliness of this place is deplorable and unhygienic even for those who eat here. I can't believe the city would allow a business like this to operate. Don't come back anymore.

I absolutely hate going to this place! And the only reason I ever do go is because of my elderly mother. She likes this particular dish called, yucca. The service is slow. The wait for the food is even worse. Unfortunately, I have convinced my mom from from dinning in and I have since started calling in the order for her to avoid ever having to dine in and even then, placing a take out order is just as frustrating, you are lucky if you get them to answer the phone! Because of the lack of changes to this restaurant I have even convinced my mom to patronize other restaurants. It is not worth the hassle. And frankly, with the gratuity already included on your bill, why would they even care to make positive changes to the wait staff. It's my guess that this is why the business owner doesn't bother to improve its staff.
