Got there around 12 and was easily sat. They have karaoke going which added a nice vibe to enjoy. Maybe it was our booth but it wasnt too comfortable, next time would opt for a table . Has a nice variety to try. Shared a pupusa Revulta and cheese was delicious and gooey. Also served salsa ,chips and beans w cheese to start while perusing the menu. I went with the camarones al mojo de ajo and also got the Cena de Bahia. I really enjoyed th e shrimp flavor . The rice was a little lumpy. Tortillas were great. The Cena had a alot to offer flavor wise. They do run a special monday -fri 4 pupusas -get 1 free pastelito. Would def return to try more and enjoy a cocktail .

Cafe Guanico solved my papusa & Salvadorian horchata craving…read more My go-to papusas are the loroco/cheese and zucchini/cheese. Both of the papusas I got were fresh, had a good amount cheese, and the veggies were delicious. They do include the salad and tomato sauce on the side. The horchata isn't just a regular rice and water drink. There's a bunch of seeds and toasted rice blended together so you get a real nutty and almost smoke flavour. This is my 2nd favorite kind of Horchata. I've never had chapulines and a family member wanted to try them so I got a side of those as well. They didn't taste like much, mostly salty, sour, crunchy and a toasted flavor. I only ate a few because I started having flashbacks to insect videos on YouTube which have permanently ruined my eyesight. I'll definitely come back when I'm in town.

Their service gets two thumbs up, their portions are big, and of course their food is delicious. Muy amables... Porciónes grandes. Comida ni se diga está muy deliciosa.

Careful you will be kissing thy neighbor when you mix the pupusas and cabbage slaw with red sauce. Ya van varias veces acá. Gracias por todo ya que siempre son lo mejor y la nostalgia que traen de la patria lo hace sentir a uno como que esté en un comidero de Planes de Rendero! Literally with the ambiance it's like you're back in El Salvador except we get a side of snow out here.

I have had most of their flavors minus the one with zucchini and the one with shrimp - not my choices when it comes to eating these. Not once has this place missed! Hot and ready to be devoured with their salsa and slaw. Pork and cheese is my favorite, but honestly I haven't had any that I did not enjoy. Service is consistent, polite. I know some don't speak English at all or well enough to converse, but they always have went to get someone that does speak both English and Spanish so that's no problem here. Lobby seemed clean.

I am writing this review to inform not to hate on this restaurant. One good thing about this…read morerestaurant is the cleanliness and quality of the food. The problem here is the energy you get when walking into the restaurant. It's dull. The restaurant is too plain for its own well being. I have also noticed I don't feel particularly welcome or comfortable when walking into this establishment. It feels like the cashiers are doing the very minimum in making you feel welcome and at home like you would in any other small business. Another thing I wanted to mention is the red sauce they make for the pupusas. It doesn't taste quality they preach about using "high quality" ingredients but the sauce tastes extremely watered down. For the high prices you would think they could put a little more effort into it. Lastly, I have heard the owner yelling at the employees multiple times I've gone which seems extremely inappropriate behavior for a grown man.

TAKE OUT ORDER I ordered takeout for lunch here Saturday…read more The place looked Lively and there was about 10 customers, some eating and some waiting for takeout orders. My order was platano frito with refried bean and sour cream. The platano with a little under cooked for my liking and not ripe enough for it to be sweet. That was a bummer. The refried red beans were really yummy, flavor and texture. The other part of my order was pupusas. I tried Revueltas (a mix of pork, beans, and cheese) Nepal y quest (cactus and cheese) and Jalapeño and cheese. The Revueltas were soft very warm and yummy. The Nopal one was cheesy and surprisingly delicious. The jalapeño was chopped finely but lacked flavor. If you know pupusas they are accompanied by Curtido (cabbage pickled slaw) and a red tomato sauce that is drizzled over them. The Curtido and salsa de tomaté at Pupuseria Villanueva are on the spicier side. Jalapeños are added to the Curtido and the tomato sauce is spicy. I recommend a taste test if your not unto spicy food. For takeout it was pretty good but I was not impressed. I will return to sit down and try other food items because I did enjoy the Nopal pupusas and the Curtido.

My favorite order is the platanos con crema y frijoles with a pupusa on the side. It's very filling, sweet and savory. The quesadilla is also amazing!!! It's a sweet cornbread-esque cake that's traditionally eaten with coffee, but is also good with the savory beans, crema, and hot sauce! The atmosphere is comfortable and the service is always good. It's never very busy, so no need to worry about a wait! Please, support your local restaurants! This one deserves a spot in your rotation for sure. Or if you're visiting, it's a quaint little place to check out for a local experience close to the city. TL;DR: Try this place! It's cute, local, delicious, and cheap.
