    I went to Amigo's Market because I read that they have the best pupusas in town. I sat at the counter unsure of the ordering process--- Tip: unless you speak Spanish, I would suggest heading to the cashier counter to order before finding a seat. The cashier was super friendly and helpful in explaining the menu. I ordered two pupusas---bean/cheese and loroco flower/cheese. My bill was quite inexpensive. The food is made to order and comes hot. I highly suggest this place and will absolutely return to get my pupusa fix.

    So here's the deal. This is a classic abarrotes type joint that serves honest to goodness Salvadoran food. It's made to order, takes a while and they aren't all things to all people. No free WiFi, no outlets, and no loyalty program asking for checkins and shout outs. And that is exactly why I love this place. The owners run the place and their only employee is a family member. The star of the show is the pupusa. All juvenile jokes aside, these little circles of masa, beans, cheese and pork are $1.50 each. They're grilled and get nice and crispy. Eat them right off the grill and you will burn the hell out of your mouth. They come with salsa and curtido (vinegary spicy coleslaw) on the side. Try it out

    I highly recommend the pupusas --very tasty. We watched them shape and pound the dough out by hand. You know it's going to be fresh when the dough is made from scratch. I'll definitely return to try some more menu items.

    I don't think they take credit cards, CASH only.

    Pupusas. Since I discovered these little babies a few years back, my life has been forever changed. Found Amigo's Market after a search for the delicious meat pancake/tamale/heaven (pupusas) and the stellar reviews. We were the only people in here on a Friday at lunch, so we bellied up to the bar and were greeted by the friendly family that run the place. I love finding places like this, and although its in an older building, it was very clean, the prep and containers for all the food being prepared was clean, organized and the hand washing of the employees is in clear view, so no worries about that! The made to order atmosphere is great, sip on an iced horchata while the ladies create the masterpieces on the hot griddle in front of you. We ordered a variety of items: steak taco, a Salvadorian quesadilla, and of course pupusas. The items came out in and assembly line so it allowed us to sample everything while it was steaming fresh. The accompanying house hot sauces were top notch and the pickled cabbage slaw was refreshingly tart. Now, we ate a hefty amount and still had leftovers, and our total bill was $18.00. Yes, not kidding, see my pictures so you can believe the size of these homemade items. I for one cannot wait to come back her with my kids and friends. Amigo's Market, thank you for being there to satisfy a craving, and to introduce me to a new place that will be added to our rotation.

    Hot, fresh off the griddle, pupusas!

    1.4 miSouth Omaha

    Just had an early lunch there. Had eaten there once before many years ago, it was great then. Today…read morenot so much. Had the Salvadoran tamales. I have had Salvadoran tamales in more than a few places and states. I just love them.Todays were the worst I have had. The masa was under cooked and one was only a quarter filled with chicken. Must have been the last one made in that batch. Ordered a margarita with no luck, tried for a beer next. was told the girl that handles alcohol just left. Server said she had a hard time serving alcohol. How hard is it to "Pop a top".

    Another Salvadorian place???…read more I feel like my access to Salva-poo-poo (aka pupusas) are almost as numerous as Omaha potholes! Out of all the Salvadorian places, I would say this place has the largest menu coupled with the highest prices (you got to pay the over achieving menu maker somehow!!) Unfortunately you can't get dollar poo-poo here... BUT you can compliment your poo with some plantains and Salva crema! I have a Salva friend who educated me on the wonders of eating plantains, queso blanco, beans and crema like they do it back in El Salvador. This place had just that - score!! It's definitely not for everyone because I remember the salty/sweet/soccer/salva tastes that threw my mouth into a slight state of confusion; yet still induced some Salvadorian saliva dripping down my chin. (that's a good thing) We had the garlic fish dish (only get this if you like whole fried fish) and there was so much garlic, I had to use the fish bones to clean my teeth out. I love garlic more than my nonexistent children, but being on Team Edward, I need to keep the g-lic on the DL mmmkrrr! The poo-poos (which is a MUST at a Salva place) were just meh. Not bad by any means, but just... meh-diocre. I think I would rather go to the poo-poo palace on 17th and Vinton for some dollar-make-my-belly-holla cheap poos. I guess if you are in the area and you want bigger menu (size queens...) including all your mexi classics, check this place out. But ONLY if you order at least one p-poo!!!
