Reina's Restaurant

Hole in the wall local mom n pop spot. Looked and smelled clean, there's a dining room. I got some carne asada tacos. They were tasty. Came with some thick homemade chips, salsa verde and fresh in-house escebeche. I thought it was all very yummy. The cashier was nice enough. I will come again.

When I walked in, the girls behind the counter just looked at me. One of them was on her phone so she didn't bother to turn around until the or one said something. I told them I was there for pick up & they didn't seem to understand me. The place was easy to find. They have parking on the side which is good. The space inside is pretty spacious. Crema makes a BIIIIIIIG difference. This is the first time I've gone to a Salvadoran restaurant where don't serve actual crema. This taste more like daisy sour cream. Plantains weren't that sweet & kinda dry & the cheese was in the crema & not on the side. My coworker said it was good here so I had high hopes. This makes me sad.

If you are looking for great authentic Salvadorian food like the kind you had from your auntie/Tia's house or your Mama who learned from your Grandmother's cooking skills, this is it; they have plenty of antojitos/ cravings to choose from. The food is always tasty; it's cooked to order; it usually takes about 20-30 minutes for the Ladies/cooks to prepare it for you, so call ahead or be patient. I like to order their soups chicken, beef, or sopa de Pata soup depending on what I'm craving; their portions are enough to share with three handmade corn tortillas pint of rice. Its location is not the best; however, if the food is excellent, I am there regardless of its location I'll add more pictures later

I came on a Saturday and noticed a $6 steak Burrito option in the menu so I ordered that. The green salsa was ok, it had a nice taste. The red salsa was very watery with little kick, nothing special. The chips were the very thick kind that I do not prefer. The steak Burrito was warm and came with cheese, mostly white rice, pico de gallo and sour cream. I did not like the taste or texture of the meat. The steak had little taste and a funny texture. I never order steak from anywhere because there are so many different kinds of steak. At home I only eat Sirloin or flank or skirt. The staff was friendly. There are just too many Taquerias in this area to favor this one.

When i first order pupusas they were full of everything so i ordered again, still good but the lat two times I don't know if they changed the lady that makes the pupusas or what! Cause they definitely not good anymore. Barely any chicharron and its more tortilla than anything. Sadly not ordering more pupusas here, I thought i had found the best pupusas but not anymore.

I ordered the Salvadorian breakfast and the plantains taste old and they gave me an old avocado too. I don't think the food is freshly cooked. I ordered pupusa revueltas, pupusas de frijol y queso and the cheese they use is bad quality bc it's too runny. The taste of the food overall isn't good. I am Disappointed I wasted my money on this place.

Just order 4 Pupusas ( 2 revueltas 2 bean and cheese )and let me tell you it was amazing love the amount of cheese they add as well

Pollo con tajadas really bad, they don't follow instructions I was very clear I wanted the chicken and fried plantain only nothing else, instead they added dressing m, pico de gallo all mix together making the plaintain all moist. I will never order again from this place!!!

First time here and last pupusas were really nasty rice and beans too. Horrible experience wouldn't recommend
