    Pork and steak tacos w hot sauce
    Matt A.

    The food was fantastic and the ladies were very nice, especially with my somewhat limited Spanish. There are a couple small tables inside/outside but not much to the interior. It's all about the food here. I had the tacos, elotes locas, Chocobananas (frozen bananas), and pork/cheese pupusas. Everything was excellent and I would recommend this place to anyone and definitely return.

    My wife and I decided to come by based on the high reviews. We opted for pupusas (pork, beans, cheese), hen tamales, and the yuca with chicharron. The pupusas are tasty, but based on other places and prices that ive seen it is an average size for the price. Im not a huge fan of their version of cabbage slaw, but others may disagree. The tamales was good, its something I would get again, but wouldn't go out of my way for. The yuca and chicarron was my favorite, the one downside is the size of the yuca. They cut them large vs medium/smaller sizes, so if you like to dip it with their green sauce, you'll need to break them up (not a deal breaker whatsoever). The chicharron was fantastic, the meat to fat ratio and the amount you receive is great for what you get. I would recommend this if youre a fan of yuca and/or chicarrons. I would happily come back to try other foods. As others have said the storefront is very very small. Theres about 3-4 tables in the shop and you barely have any walking room.

    I am giving them 4.5 Stars. I wish we could do half star ratings on Yelp. My favorite Salvadorian restaurant in Chantilly. The establishment is small, probably about 4 tables. It's better for takeout. I've never actually dine in, so my experience has always been just ordering for pickup. So far, service has always been friendly with whoever I've interacted on the phone or the front counter. I've tried many items on the menu. But, my favorites are the chicken fajitas ( although that's not really a Salvadorian dish), the bean and cheese pupusas , and the hen soup. I just want to really emphasize the hen soup is amazing! Like seriously this is something that you must try. They actually boil the hen, so you can have that chicken flavor broth and then that boiled hen is grilled. I believe they serve breakfast too. Prices are really affordable, especially for this area.

    Pupusa with pork beans and cheese - we brought it home and ate it.. by far the best I've tried!

    By far the best I've tried! It's very authentic and most importantly it's not salty at all! Place is very small and not very welcoming but it's so good! It's my new favorite place now

    Ate there for lunch with coworkers then ordered carryout for dinner the next day. This place is very small with literally 5 tables, 3-2 seaters and 2-4 seaters. We got there before noon and no one was there. I feel like once word gets out how good they are, it will definitely get more crowded. If you like Cerritos down rt.50 then you'll like this place! We ordered the chicharron and yuca platter as an appetizer to share, chicken taco, steak taco, lengua taco, pupusas revueltas, and modongo soup. For carryout, I ordered carne asada, chorizo taco and lengua taco, pork and cheese pupusas, and chicken tamales. So lots to review here... Pupusas...delicious, flavorful, not dry, plenty of filling, and in my opinion better than Cerritos. And they placed this huge tub of fresh cabbage slaw so you can have as much as you like! Wha wha! I'm down for that! Tacos...my lengua taco was DA BOMB! Best I've had...and yes better than Cerritos again! That's crazy right? It was so tender and flavorful! Ordered it again the next day for my 10 yr old son and he loved it! The other tacos (chicken and steak) were good but not as flavorful as we have had elsewhere. The chorizo taco was pretty tasty though. Chicharron and yuca platter was awesome! Huge portion stacked with big chunks of fried pork and tender yuca topped with slaw and jalapeno slices. Definitely a must try. And dont forget to ask for their house hot sauce. Bottle of something saucy is what they gave us and we put that sh*t on everything lol! It was good! Modongo (tripe) soup was pretty good, had better, and I didnt see any yuca pieces. Instead they put big pieces of plantains (with skin). Never had it like that but all good. Chicken tamales were huge! And yummy! With plenty of filling. Carne asada was delicious as well. Huge pieces of meat over seasoned rice. Came with salad and beans. I like my refried beans kinda chunky but their's was not. Tasted really good regardless. They also gave you 2 homemade tortillas too. I work right across the street so this place is most definitely on rotation!

    Best pupusas I've had yet. The tacos were excellent also. Small business, but big on flavor. Highly recommend.

    two tacos in a styrofoam container

    I high recommend this spot. Its sort of a hole in the wall, but you won't regret giving it a shot. The prices are extremely reasonable, and the food was amazing. We got the chicken tacos and the cheese pupusas, and both were freshly made and to die for. If you get a chance, check it out!!!

    Some authentic Hispanic food. Honestly recommmend many to come here and try some good food for a decent price. Promise you the food will stop you from talking to whoever came along with you. It's that good

    AMAZING AL PASTOR TACOS!! SO MUCH FLAVOR! This is authentic and reminds me so much of tacos from back home in California. A must try!

    I ordered from here while i was working -- UberEats FTW…read more The food was amazing. I was absolutely thrilled with the amount of food, the taste of the food, and everything about the meal. I asked that they sub the guacamole for sour cream in the order notes and they DID honor that request! I was thrilled when I searched the restaurant to confirm they were in fact a 24/7 operation, and found they indeed were! There were enough supplies to make 3 full soft tacos, but only 2 flour tortillas. I'm glad I ordered extra sour cream, because the dash that they smeared across the lettuce was next to nothing, and it looked pitiful. Please, Two Amigos, have some compassion for us sour cream lovers and just give us a nice big scoop! With the Tex Mex Fajitas you get steak, chicken, and shrimp -- but weirdly, despite the $40 price tag, only 3 large shrimp for 2 tacos - judging from their supplied tortillas... A bit of a rip-off if you ask me, on the seafood side. I wish I could eat this quality and tasty food EVERY DAY! It was SO good!

    Two Amigos is a lively Mexican restaurant with tasty margaritas and authentic flavor…read more We noticed the constant flow of diners coming in the place and knew we made the right choice for our early dinner stop. The matrimonial margarita (mango and strawberry) was pretty flavorful without being overly sweet. I wouldn't say it was strong. The standard margarita on the rocks was made well. The chips and salsa held us over while we decided on our meals. An order of wings came out first as an appetizer, I didn't try any, but they looked good and my friends said that they were tasty and hot. We had an order of the seafood burrito and it was good. There was plenty of seafood - octopus, shrimp, etc. the Cancun sauce was good. There was an order of beef tacos that came with rice and beans. The beans style here is runny refried, but pretty good. We also had the grilled chicken and shrimp combo which comes with a salad, rice and beans and a tortilla. Our server was very personable and nice. The main dining area had enough room to dine without feeling cramped. The bar area is a decent size with plenty of TVs to catch a game. The women's restroom needs some handy-work. Overall my friend said they go out of their way to come back, meanwhile the rest of us felt like it was good but not THAT good but if we were in the area we would come back. I enjoyed the energy and food at Two Amigos.
