I came here for an impromptu sunday brunch and it was a great place to walk in, no reservations needed and wasn't super packed. The server was really nice and knowledgeable. I tried the Horchata latte which was a nice treat as well as the Breakfast Pupusas. It was a really good portion and very tasty. My partner tried the same, she only had one hiccup which on of the pupusa fillings being wrong but aside from that we both enjoyed it. Overall, I would recommend this place for good music, good pupusas, and just a chill vibe when you may be looking to go out to eat without having to make a reservation or participate in bottomless drinks etc.

It was a Friday night and we didn't have reservations. We wanted to try something different and El Salvadorian seemed like a good choice. We were seated right away but it took a while to order our food. The food was ok. Maybe they were having an off night. I'd go back again to check it out. Sometimes servers can get behind. This was an unusually slow service night.

My friends and I really appreciated this place being open late on a Thurs. We enjoyed the food and service. The tacos were delicious. Drinks made just right.

Solid brunch spot! Faves were the breakfast quesadilla, platanos fritos, and the pork and cheese pupusas. I wish service was a little faster (I think for our last course there was a mix up with our order of pupusas; not sure if the order wasn't put in at all or just incorrectly at first since we got 3 bean and cheese and 4 pork and cheese) and more attentive with giving us water but our server was nice and funny.

This isn't a fancy place but they offer good service, good food, and a reasonable price. They do what they do well. My group of 9 had intended to sit outdoors but the weather forecast was very bad and they were kind enough to accommodate moving us indoors. The pupusas are kind of their main special thing. A number of us had those and enjoyed. I personally can recommend the spinach/cheeese and zucchini/cheese ones. I also enjoyed the chicken tamal greatly. The corn outside is soft and a little sweet and the inside has tender shredded chicken . The pina colada was quite tasty!!! I do recommend! They were very kind in splitting up checks for us as well.

Went for brunch! Nice atmosphere. There's a bunch of beautiful artwork hanging around the restaurant and if I'm not mistaken, they're all for sale, which is pretty cool! The service was quick and friendly. It wasn't busy so it was quick. We split the fajitas and they were sizzling and delicious! They also have a bottomless taco special, so we'll be back soon!

Whenever I wanna hang out in AdMo, I find this to be a great place to start at. It has a nice bar space, and plenty of tables to sit at, small and large. I've always enjoyed the chips and salsa and pupusas. There's a lot more on the menu, but I haven't explored it all yet! Sometimes I grab a margarita as well, and they never miss. I've never tried making a reservation before, but on weekends, you might need one -- especially if you have a bigger party. It's worth mentioning that there's plenty of outdoor seating too. It's on a corner, and the streets all around are pretty narrow and permit-heavy, so give yourself time to park!

Wish I could leave a 4.5. Don't judge the food by its look. Split the fajitas with my fiance and it was just enough food. The flavor was great. They have a $30 bottomless tacos and carafe of margarita or beer on Tuesday and I'll definitely be back with friends for that! They also have beautiful art on the wall for sale!
