Salvatoria Kitchen and Bar is a great option if you're looking for a sit-down spot for pupusas. I…read morewas pleasantly surprised that the pupusas were still reasonably priced for a full-service restaurant and bar, at around $4 each. They offer a good variety of fillings. My favorite was the jalapeño and cheese, which have a nice kick to them. The yuca frita was crispy but not oily, and made for a great appetizer before the pupusas. We came during happy hour and took advantage of the drink specials. The red sangria and margaritas were only $8 a glass and they were both strong and tasty, though I preferred the sangria slightly more. The music at Salvatoria was great and made for a nice atmosphere, with current Latino hits playing in the background. My only note, and it's minor, is that the curtido wasn't as good as I've had at other places. They do give you a good amount, but it lacked some of the crunch and acidity that a great curtido needs to balance out the pupusas. Overall, Salvatoria Kitchen and Bar delivers on food, value, and atmosphere. The bill for four pupusas, two drinks, and an order of yuca frita came out to just $45 before tip.

It's good to speak a bit of Spanish though much of the menu is translated for you so you can just point to things if that's easier for you. The server wasn't the best with English so when I had a problem (of my own creation) it was a bit harder to explain it to her, coupled with the very loud Spanish ballads blaring through the speaker. One of the drunk guys at the bar was a comedian. His uncle was the disheveled local who couldn't decide whether he wanted tonne outside or inside. At the same time families were here and groups of friends. There's plenty of space in here to come in and relax. Have an horchata. Theirs a are quite refreshing. The yuca fritas with chicken is great. The pickled peppers and onions were a surprise and well-paired addition. The steak sandwich was everything I needed it to be and more on French bread.

They have caju juice, maranon. Not watered down. By far a flavor I rarely find locally. The pupusa with beans, pork and cheese; curtido and sauce on the side was amazing. The crispy breaded shrimp entree was fabulous! There were 7 jumbo shrimp, cleaned properly, not overcooked and still crispy on arrival. They were plump and had a great bite, not mushy or chewy. These are the shrimp you dream of. The rice and beans was nice. Small red beans, not oily and not mushy. Proper texture of freshly made that day. The side salad... Ok, it could have been in a separate container. But it was a great side salad. A good chunk of fresh farmers cheese. Salsa with fresh herbs to dress it, and a bit of purslane I think. The budin, described as banana pudding. It looks amazing. I'm not sure how it should taste. It's lightly sweet. For me it wasn't my taste preference, but it was still good. I couldn't say how it should taste as I never had it before; but it wasn't pudding or flan like.

We decided to try Morritos a small nondescript diner-like cafe with about five small square tables lined up against one wall and a long bar with stools opposite.which extended the length of the restaurant; a large El Salvadorian flag hanging in the front window. We sat at the bar and ordered three Papusas and a chicken tamale. Firstly the tamale was delicious, fresh, moist and chicken seasoned well with small olives and mild spices. it was a very pleasant surprise and we were glad we'd decided to try it, probably the best tamale I've had outside of Mexico (not that I've tried many here). We also ordered a Shrimp, Chicken and Spinach Papusa but they didn't have shrimp at the time so we opted for Cheese & Bean instead. The Papusas were made and cooked right in front of us (while sitting at the bar) they were fresh, soft in the center and slightly crispy on the bottom, flavors were simple, light and good. Not a huge amount of ingredients/filling but I imagine that's how they're meant to be and we were more than satisfied with our decision. Melted cheese oozing from the pancake like dough, small side of coleslaw and sauce for topping. Next time we'll ask for green chili sauce on the side too (noticed someone else order them as we were wrapping up). The ladies cooking and serving were efficient, sweet and prompt. It seemed only one woman spoke English and if you're in the mood for something simple and inexpensive give it a go. This place deserves 4 stars for all that it is.

As a…read morenative New Yorker I have gone to restaurants with every type of cuisine possible and I have never been treated in a disrespectful manner simply because I do not speak the native tongue. Not only was I ignored after multiple attempts to try to engage the servers but others who arrived after me were served immediately.

Needless to say I will never return to this establishment and I encourage anyone who reads this review to consider not going to this establishment either. Unfortunately Yelp does not give the option of zero stars as this restaurant certainly does not deserve the one star that appears next to this rating.

It's hard to pick a clear winner between the two. Both get a great char (which is necessary, to make sure you're not eating raw mix).
