What a hidden treasure this place is!!! A must try, delicious South American food (El Salvador) It's right off merrick road with plenty of parking in the back. Place is clean, waitress (Kanya) was friendly, professional, and very attentive . We ordered the steak with shrimp combo with a side of fried plantains and beans. The steak was tender, cooked to perfection and seasoned very well; mouth watering good! We ordered a side of plantains and beans which was delicious. The portions were huge, we both went home with leftovers. Our bill came to $70 for two. read more

Simply delicious! This cute restaurant is in the heart of Freeport but obviously does not received the traffic it deserves. We came here more towards the evening hours and it was empty. We were seated immediately. The restaurant is nicely decorated and well lit. They had music playing which was great and was not too loud. Our waiter Kanya, was extremely nice and attentive. We ordered the Carne Asada, which comes with a good size piece of flank stank, shrimp, white rice, avocado , and pico de gallo. We also ordered a side of beans & maduros. Everything is made to order and was fresh and delicious! The salad and house dressing was also fresh and delicious. So glad we tried this place and we plan to return with family/friends who we know will enjoy the food here as well! read more

Best pupusas in town! Service is great. I've never eaten there so I can't speak on ambiance but this place is definitely worth trying!

Pregnant and was craving some pupusas! These pupusas were absolutely delicious ! Even my 2 year old kept asking me for "more please " . Ordered 5 cheese 2 revuelta and 3 beans with cheese. I had to order the horchata which was also delicious. Everything was about 36 bucks. I paid with card so they charged 2 bucks more to pay with card honestly with these pregnancies cravings not even the inflation prices could stop me ! My daughter and I shared a cheese pupusa on the way home and the horchata was pretty much done by the time we got home. Albertina was a very nice lady she even helped me bring my food out to my car because I did have my 2 year old terror with me. I need to go back to the restaurant and try some other items ! Will definitely come back again and if your in the area and in the mood for pupusas pleaseeee go ! read more

Albertina Restaurant - Avocado salad - Salvadoran Near Me - Freeport, New York

The food takes a while to be served at times but It is my absolute favorite Salvadoran spot near me! Delicious and warm comfort food!

First time eating popusas, they were really good. Great customer service. The beans and cheese Popusas were good but the best ones were the ones with cheese only. I tried the tamarin drink but it was too sweet. Sitting is done inside, I am not sure if this is a good thing, I took my dinner to go. read more

I wanted my boyfriend to experience some authentic pupusas and this place was recommended to me. It definitely delivered the taste I was looking for and he enjoyed it very much! It can be difficult to find pupusas that the dough isn't too thick or the filling is the right taste but Albertina's was able to do it. They were pretty big as well and the price was reasonable. We also ordered nachos with guacamole and the guacamole was delicious. If you come here and order nachos, keep in mind this is a Salvadorian restaurant and it wont be the nachos you are expecting, but that doesn't mean they don't taste great. I did not try any of the other menu items, but if you come here, definitely get at least 1 pupusa to try. You wont regret it. read more

My favorite Salvadorian food restaurant! The wait staff is friendly and helpful. I can't think of plate that I do not enjoy, but you must try the infamous Pupusas! My favorite are the Pupusas revueltas, which are stuffed corn tortillas mixed ingredients of cheese, beans, and chicharrón. read more

Great find! Food and service was excellent. We listened to the other reviews and got some pupusas, they did not disappoint. The place is home style, nothing fancy just good food. We left happy and satisfied. read more

Excellent Truly Authentic El Salvadorian restaurant. The decor is plain. However the food is wonderful. Shrimps in garlic sauce were fantastic. Beef Steak "Typical" came with two fried eggs, rice, refried beans and avocado. Ordered one of the Pupusas to try and it was delicious. Everything has a real homey taste to it. We ordered Tres Leches cake and a sweet Empanada for dessert and they were very well executed as well. The place didn't have many customers and thats a real shame because this place has terrific grub. The staff were friendly as well. Restaurant & restroom were very clean. Will definitely return. Got to get Horchata or a milkshake on my next visit. read more

If I could give ZERO stars I would. Not only was there a long thick piece of hair in my my entree, but there was also one in my boyfriends entree. 2 out of the 3 meals had HAIR served on the side. The service was good because the people were nice but really? That's just so gross. AWFUL. read more

Great food very reasonable prices. Can't figure out why this place isn't packed. If it was up to me we'd go back tonite.

Amazing pupusas. Seriously. They're huge and taste heavenly. I come here whenever I get cravings for some.

This place has great Salvadoran food, always came out of this place with a happy stomach. My boyfriend usually gets the steak combo with the white rice, eggs, small white cheese and beans. He also loves getting the horchata. I personally don't like the taste of that drink but he loves it. I usually order the baked salmon with white rice and beans and a little salad comes with it, and as a drink I usually get the freshly squeezed orange juice. read more
