Papitas fritas salvadoreñas
David R.

I drove all the way from the San Fernando valley. Is not that far away. I found this place on my timeline feed on social media. So I decided to come check this place out in person. I definitely recommend this place. The staff were amazing. Excellent customer service

Pupusa Revuelta /Pork, Beans & Cheese
Steph L.

Freshly prepared, cheese oozing out over the light crust. Very nice masa & bomb revuelta flavor. Maybe my best pupusa experience ever.

So much food
Thomas G.

First and foremost the food was amazing. This was my first time having Salvadorian food and I was lucky to have the best of the best. The Platabos were sooo yummy, the yucca were amazing, papusas (chorizo and chicharonne), the shrimp, carne, tortillas, all of it was just so amazing. Lastly I had a 1/4 quesadilla for dessert and, I was very confused as to why a quesadilla would be dessert but I learned exactly what it was and boy was it delicious. I cannot wait to come back here.

Was craving pupusas and decided to try this restaurant. Staff was friendly and promptly took our order. The pupusas were delicious. Would come back!

Great place for Salvadoran Food served in a family friendly atmosphere. The food served is very tasty and the service is excellent.

Breakfast
Sherly V.

Service was amazing. The lady was very sweet and she was the only one trying to serve 4 to 5 tables at a time, and she always had a smile. The Pupusas were deliciously However, the breakfast, the rice and beans was stale hard, and it wasn't fresh. The eggs were a lot of things going on. It did not look appetizing, and everything else was good. I will definitely return just for the Pupusas

El Cojutepeque ,
Angela H.

Es un asco, tanto la presentación como algunos platillos que sirven un servicio pésimo la mesera creo que es la Mil usos de ahí por lo que se ve en el Corte de las verduras los cuchillos no tienen filo, la limpieza del Patio tiene mucho que pensar, las mesas que hay las vi y estaban suciasaquí dejo fotos de lo que pedí para llevar y esas bolitas "de pollo" que me dieron están sin sabor y son verduras que seguro Las sacaron de algún caldo y nada de pollo. Más control en este negocio debería de tener la o dueños .

Pupusas
Melissa D.

UNREAL pupusas. You think you've had a good pupusas before? I'm sure you haven't until you've gone to Cojutepeque. I could eat the bean and cheese pupusa every day for the rest of my life. This place has a cozy, neighbor feel, and the food is simply unbeatable.

Pupusas de queso con calabacín
Mari F.

The service here is friendly, the pupusas are delicious and the cheese ratio is good my favorite are the cheese and green squash, my little one loves the beans and cheese, place does get busy so come by early to get parking and a table inside...

Juan was awesome -- very informative, even shared a little history of Pupusa's :) Nonetheless, the service was great but the food ** chefs kiss ** was phenomenal! We got 6 pupusa's -- 2 Bean & Cheese, 1 Pork & Cheese, 1 Al Pastor & Cheese, 1 Garlic & Cheese and 1 Asada & Cheese -- the garlic & cheese was our favorite, but all of them were phenomenal! Thank you, Juan, for the experience! I will be back!

I've been coming here since high school and I'm 24 now. The food was always really good, service…read moretypically welcoming and friendly but always expensive. We came a couple of months ago and had their loaded yucca fries with carne asada as well as some pupusas. The meat on our fries felt really low quality-- the best way I could describe it was it tasting like frozen hamburger meat-- and gave us indigestion for the rest of the night, which was really disappointing to experience. Today we unfortunately experienced some really rude service. My bf ordered a plain water and we were given a fresco ensalada (no big deal, he likes it) We don't eat pork and ordered fried yucca on its own, just yucca frita. We were given a plate of yucca con chicharron :( I told the service we just ordered yucca frita and we were told that we did not specify that for her. I explained that we don't eat pork so we sent it back and were met with a displeasing look. I said we didn't want to yucca anymore since we had a lot of food already and she said "the kitchen already made it." So I said it was fine but just the yucca this time and she came back with the same exact plate just without the chicharron-- no visible plate change. Needless to say for the price, decline in food quality, and rude service, it's not worth coming back. At least not for a while.

The pupusas were fresh (I could hear them being made) and they had aguas frescas, my favorite de melón. I think I'll Make this a habit :)

Sivar treats used to be a great place to eat, and the customer service was friendly. However, the…read morelast three times we've ordered the quality of the food and service has taken a turn for the worst. I let it go the first time when they got my order wrong and the tamales de pisque were super salty. Anyone can have an off day. The second time they got my order wrong again, but it was late and I didn't have the energy to make a fuss. However, tonight, they gave me the wrong pupusas and the platanos were burned. When I called back and politely let them know, the young lady on the phone seemed to be annoyed that I brought it up and dismissively told me to bring the food back. No basic courtesy, like we apologize for the inconvenience. When I got to the restaurant she rolled her eyes and took the food back in cold silence. The manager came out and again, no apology. I don't expect much, just basic recognition and common courtesy. I will not be eating here again and I caution you, that they do not value and respect customers enough to provide basic courtesy. **********+ Thank you, we appreciate your response and willingness to make things right. The only thing my wife and I ask is that you genuinely have a discussion with your employees and remind them that 99 percent of your customers are your neighbors, and we all want you to succeed. Here in Whittier, we have so many great dining options, so when we choose you, it means something. We will try again in a few months and we look forward to posting an update. Wishing you the very best. Sergio & Cristina
