Great food. Super reasonable: I was full and paid <$10 before tip. They have a plenty of seating (~30ppl) and takes credit card. If you are at the neighborhood, I recommend checking this place out. It was also mentioned in Eatrt NY map.

Good food and better prices. Service has been good too. The atmosphere is a bit old and sometimes the air is musty… But food has always been the same “steady” which is good. Excellent lunch specials. Traditional and simple.

Hands down one of the best pupusas in Queens. I’ve tried other restaurant but no one makes their pupusas like el comal. The revuelta in my opinion is the best. Always fresh and never disappoints!

The last time I had food this good was when my best friend’s mom made breakfast for me. And she’s been dead for 4 years. Get the breakfast special with the pupusas if you come here, and call your mom and tell her you love her if you can. I’m gonna go cry now.

Just a small hole in the wall spot on Hillside but it serves fresh, delicious and authentic food from El Salvador. Service is friendly and efficient and they keep the place clean. It's not fancy but they take care of you and it's a tasty comfortable spot.

One star off for leaving bones in the Tamales and Pupulsa, otherwise it was pretty good

I have had a CANGREJOFONGO. It is mashed fried green plantain with crab meat. It tasted very well. No other place nearby makes this. It is prepared from scratch. It may take a while. The taste is worth the wait. I have had 3 pupusas with cheese and loroco. The tomatoe sauce has a great taste. The curtido also tastes good. I have also had a beef soup. This is so well cooked. The meat fell off the bone. They offered green hot sauce but it was not needed. I will continue coming here. They also do deliveries.

Pupusas were very good crispy and tasty and the service was very nice just don’t like the fact they automatically charge tip when I’m was gonna give one anyway kinda turns me off but overall a nice little spot

So I only stopped in to use the bathroom lol but the staff was very cool about it as well as friendly (a lot of establishments ask that you make a purchase to use their restrooms), it smelled really good and if it wasn't for the lack of time, I would've tried a dish or two. From what I saw, the place was pretty clean and they currently have an A rating displayed on the front window. Based off of cleanliness, friendly vibes and hospitality and how good the food smelled but not having actually tried it, I give them 4 stars.

I have been going to this spot for years and always recommended this spot. Today I was extremely disappointed. Order delivery which is 10 mins from my place and took an hour. When it got here, the maracuyá was 90% water. Not what it looks like when you get at the restaurant. Beans had not a single sprinkle of seasoning. Pupusas were burnt and dry…. And I received no toppings for my pupusas. It just felt extremely lazy and dissatisfying. Will not recommend this spot going forward. I have been going here for 7 years and have always had a good experience up until today.
