I was recommended to try San Sivar and decided to give it a shot, but unfortunately, my experience wasn't great.I called ahead while I was about 10 minutes away to place a dine-in order so that my food could be ready when I arrived. However, I was told that they wouldn't take my order, and the woman I spoke with was quite rude about it. She said I'd have to come in and order there, which felt like an inconvenience.Despite this, I went ahead and dined in. The food was decent, but nothing special--just mediocre at best. I ordered pupusas and asked for extra cabbage salad, which I was met with an eye roll from the staff. This kind of attitude really left a bad impression and made me feel unwelcome for such a small request.Looking through other reviews, it seems that this is a consistent issue at the restaurant. Many people have mentioned that while the food is okay, the service can be lacking, especially when it comes to attitude.Given the combination of underwhelming food and poor service, I'm unlikely to return. There are other Salvadoran spots in the area that offer better food and much friendlier service.

Pupusas were delicious here! I tried the Squash & Cheese, Loroco & Cheese, and Pork. The pupusas were served with pickled cabbage and two kinds of salsas. I personally didn't care for the salsas, but the pickled cabbage was the perfect addition to the pupusas. Two pupusas are enough to fill one person. They range between $3 - $4. They are made fresh to order and come out piping hot.While their pupusas seem to be a popular item showcased here on Yelp, I noticed that every single table ordered the Caldo de Gallina Criolla. This is a chicken soup that comes with a plate of chicken, rice, and freshly made corn tortillas. It looked delicious, and I look forward to coming back and trying it!Parking and seating are limited. People who work here are friendly. The menu posted on the wall doesn't have prices, but the takeout menu does.

Disappointing Customer ServiceI had a very disappointing experience due to poor customer service from an employee. Despite waiting patiently in line for a long time, when it was finally my turn, this employee ignored me and attended to the person behind me. When I pointed this out, she was indifferent and continued to be rude to me and to another employee throughout the interaction. This level of disrespect and lack of professionalism is unacceptable. I hope the management takes this feedback seriously and addresses the issue, as no customer should be treated this way. This place has been one of my favorites for Salvadoran food for a long time, and it's disappointing that they provide such poor service because the food is very good.Servicio al Cliente DecepcionanteTuve una experiencia muy decepcionante debido al mal servicio al cliente de parte de una Empleada apesar de esperar pacientemente en la fila durante mucho tiempo, cuando finalmente llegó mi turno, esta empleada me ignoró y atendió a la persona atras de mi. Cuando señalé esto, fue indiferente y continuo siendo grosera conmigo y con otra empleada durante toda la interacción. Este nivel de falta de respeto y profesionalismo es inaceptable. Espero que la gerencia tome en serio este comentario y aborde el problema, ya que ningún cliente debería ser tratado de esta manera. Este lugar a sido por mucho tiempo uno de los favoritos en comida Salvadoreña y es desepcionante el mal servicio que dan por que la comida si es muy buena.

This place is good for the food but the staff is always fucking bitching especially the owner. She's a little older I get it your in your 60s and still working.. but if you ask her about the food they make you wait I waited for 3 pupusas for over 40 mins I saw my whole group eat . They gave me 3 pupusas 45 mins after and they had already served others also the people who ordered.

This place is amazing, they have excellent food. It is very savory and is always a hit with my wife and kids. Only downside is that you wait a bit longer for the food (quality food takes longer?), but you can curb that by placing the order over the food.

Horrible service! I brought 10 pupusas and the only gave me one bag of Cortido.... Which is what they put on top. The girl was rude! She saix it is $4 more for an extra bag which I did pay for. Horrible service. I will never come back. Go to El Chinaco they are across the street and they offer better service.

Great Authentic Salvadoran Food. The pupusas are big, filling and not greasy. You Order up front and pay. Small but with ample seating. Will definitely return and try more of their menu.

I went for pick up on a weekday night after work. There were people but it wasn't packed. I ordered 2 pupusas and since I don't speak Spanish I felt pretty uncomfortable ordering. Anyways, they completely forgot my order for 40 minutes and many other people got their order before me, orders of 5-10 pupusas that ordered without me. When they finally remembered I could not even ask for sauces because there was no communication. I was disappointed with the customer service but the food was good. Would not want to wait that long again though.

I really enjoy this place! My boyfriend and I were looking for a new spot while he was in town and I love it here. The service is always sooo nice and the kind lady at the front always has a smile. I only get pupusas here so I can't speak for the rest of the menu but so far, the proportions are excellent and tastes homemade - with love!
