Wife and I ate it when we got home and DANG... so good. i've only had a few pupusas in my life but it was so delicious. the thick outer tortilla was perfectly crisp but chewy and the filling was so flavorful. so.... after a few hours, we went back to eat dinner there lol We got some more pupusas but the revuelta def was the best. We also got the baleada con todo which was so good! (had to look up what a baleada was) i'm not big on beans but all the ingredients were delicious and worked well together. prices were very good too. doesn't feel like stressing your wallet to have a nice meal outside. service was great but food takes a bit to come out but overall, this place is amazing and we'll def be back.

With a total area of 21,041 square kilometers, El Salvador, which means "the Savior" and got its…read morename from the Spanish conquistadores, is the tiniest country in Central America between Guatemala and Honduras. Since it is so small, all the popular foods are enjoyed all over the country, from the coast to the mountains. Although it includes ingredients introduced by the Europeans, such as cheese and onions, Salvadoran cuisine still relies heavily on indigenous food, such as beans and corn. If there's one dish that defines Salvadoran food, it's pupusas. From the Nahuatl for "fat tortilla," these thick, handmade corn tortillas are filled with cheese, refried beans, or seasoned meats and then grilled until golden. Topped with curtido (a tangy cabbage slaw) and salsa, they are best eaten for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Located at a strip mall on Passaic Street in Hackensack, Salvadoreño-Santa Fe is a great Salvadorean family-owned/run establishment. Upon arrival as a first-timer, I was greeted by the staff inside this cozy, casual, and clean interior with a handful of tables. The menu features authentic Salvadoran and other Hispanic cuisine. I decided on the Pupusa Loca Grande/Big Pupusa Loca filled with pork, chicken, cheese, and beans. There was a bit of a wait as my meal came out freshly made, perfectly cooked, and authentically tasty. The portion was generous, easily feeding two people; mine could have been for 4 and was reasonably priced. The staff was friendly and had a nice conversation with Cindy. Worth the stop!

I ordered a chicken and mushroom with rice, some pupusas and their carne asada tacos. Pickup was easy and the lady chased me down outside to make sure I got the plantains which was left out of the bag. It was super cold out so I appreciated that she came out in her t shirt lol. The food overall was really good, authentic and I think I enjoyed the tacos the most. The chicken and mushroom was tasty and the pupusas were good. I'm not s huge fan of pupusas usually but figured I'd give it a try. Really good food and not breaking the bank for dinner. I'll be back!

The chicken and shrimp was tender and cooked perfectly. The salad was fresh and the plantains was delicious!

Part of the meal I ate was a little dry, but that's what the excellent salsa is for, and everyone at the table is coming back.
