El Salamar Restaurant

Top quality salvadorian cuisine is all I was missing in my life , but those days are long gone after finding el salamar! Lol I unexpectedly found this newly established restaurant serving salvadorian cuisine near the 10fwy- riverside ave exit in Rialto. I made a pit stop to try some of their dishes and it left me wanting more ! I have been visiting 2x a week and pupusas are always freshly made and It is authentic as it can possibly be. I have dined in and ordered pickup (ordered my go to pupusas revueltas ) and food has always been fresh, hot and tasty! Portions are very generous...I also tried their fish ceviche tostadas and that was very savory as well . They do offer authentic salvadorian bottled drinks and fresh made waters ( agua-ensalada) that are a must try. Can't recommend enough to stop by on Tuesday specials, pupusas are 2$ and try them all . Although a salvadorian specialty restaurant, you will find Mexican and American options too. Everything is cooked to order so it will not disappoint. The establishment is not crowded and plenty of seating for large crowds. Staff is always very friendly and attentive.

Lowkey spot. Never super packed with people which is awesome for me lol Good quality foodEverything is fresh so it's made from scratch so expect a good wait. I like to call 25 minutes in advance so the food is ready when I get there. 2 dollars Tuesdays for pupusas.

We were craving caldo in this cold weather and came across El Salamar in Rialto through Yelp. We ordered a Caldo de Res, Sopa de Puya, Tamal de Elote, Tamal de Pollo, Atole de Elote, and Horchata Salvadoreña.Overall, the food was flavorful, but the standout for me was the Atole de Elote and Tamal de Elote. The Sopa and Caldo were good but not the best I've had. The Tamal de Pollo was okay; I've had better, but it wasn't bad. It's hard to find authentic Salvadorian tamales de pollo. I'd rate it an 8 out of 10. The Horchata was good too, even though I'm not usually a fan.I didn't get a chance to try their pupusas, but I did see some being served to the table next to us, and they looked delicious.The service was friendly, though it did take a bit longer than expected to place our order. It looked like only one person was working the floor while others were in the back cooking. It seems like a family-owned business with good hospitality.The place has ample seating, good lighting, and a big screen TV. Chips and salsa were served while we waited for our food

Good parkingFood is affordableBig area for seating On Tuesdays they have $2 pupusas!!!They have breakfast, lunch/dinners!My family loves this place

It's good food, and I almost don't want to share that information since it is a friendly, clean restaurant that so far isn't overly busy on a Sunday (it's always hard to find a place to eat at any restaurant after church around here on Sunday!). My first meal was the Tipico breakfast and it was great. My second time was the Vegetable Omelette and it was delicious. I wish them big success, and I will be back for some pupusas soon!

I ordered about 20 pupusas for pick up. Customer service was great! The food was ready on time. I ordered all revueltas and they were perfectly balanced. Very tasty and full of flavor. The added sauces and toppings were also delicious! There was plenty of parking and seating inside as well. The interior looked clean when I entered the restaurant. I have gone back 3 times already! Definitely recommend this place.

Really good pupusas. They are moist with a lot of flavor. Had the pan de pollo also and it had the classic flavor I like.

Hey everyone just wanted to give everyone the heads up on a new spot I found in the Rialto area.. really good Salvadorian food.. awesome pupusas .. so delicious check them out if you get a chance and help out! Def.Recommend!

The food was good and service was great to say the least I destroyed my food definitely coming again

Okay, guys. So, the pupusas from this place are definitely my number one recommendation to try. I've tried the carne, bean and cheese, and chicarron with cheese. And they all were so freaking good! Loaded with flavor. Perfect crispyness. Not too heavy to eat, and won't leave you miserably full, but full enough to be satisfied. Oh, and the dip or sauce and the pickled cabbage mixture that comes with them surely is a must-have! Go ahead, give them a try for yourself! You'll thank me later!
