“ I swung by this spot before having to work at a concert about a block or two away. Amazing quality and very low prices! I had some chicken with a side salad, rice, and beans. Very quick and inexpensive spot for lunch if you’re in the area! Very good! ”
“ Great pupusas! Reminded me of when my father would come back from El Salvador with food including pupusas or when making them with my great abuelita. ”
“ Excellent caldo de res. Good pupusas too! awesome little Salvadoran restaurant right across the street from the Cowboys stadium. Hot fresh food. Friendly staff. You might need to know a little Spanish to order. I always order in Spanish and so I didn't give her an opportunity to speak English. ”
“ Cute little spot. I got the papusas with beans and cheese and they were really good, however the papusas revueltas were mainly cheese and hardly any pork. The repollo is one of the best I’ve tried - crispy and delicious. I can’t speak for the rest of the menu, but my experience was great! Front of house knew English as well as Spanish (of course) so ordering is not difficult if you don’t speak Spanish! ”
“ I loved the chicken soup and beef soup, GREAT TASTES!. Friendly staff. ”
“ Great place. This is one place I’ll be back! ”
“ My wife and I really enjoyed our visit here. We thought it was just a Mexican restaurant, but found out that they also serve Salvadorian and Honduran food. We ordered Salvadorian and Honduran enchiladas. They are not the typical enchiladas we are used to. The Salvadorian enchilada was fantastic. We also got Salvadorian tamales, which are bigger than the typical Mexican tamales. It was really good too. We topped it off with some horchata. Very good prices and the service was very friendly. The interior has a very good feel of authenticity. ”
“ Very good food I had the chicken stew it was delicious, fresh, good serving size, and topped off with a coke. Try em out very hard working staff with delicious food ”
