Authentic Salvadorian cuisine…read more Service and atmosphere: The staff were all nice and friendly. They advised us on the food selection and let us sample a soup before we committed to order full portion. The restaurant was clean. Food and drinks: Tradicional cooking methods and flavours in every dish. Good selection of pupusas with various fillings. The pupusas were well cooke, not greasy and evenly filled with cheese. The yucca was fried perfectly, crispy on the outside and soft inside. The soup with tripe was flavoursome and hearty. Ensalada drink was really good too. You can also buy here ready made sweets, cheeses and bottled drinks. Pricing: $$ - definitely worth trying.

Food is amazing and would come each time. The only thing you have to have the time to wait for it…read more There will be a long time to wait. So order before you get hungry.

This restaurant is an absolute standout! I tried a variety of pupusas--cheese, cheese and beans,…read moreand chicharrón with cheese--and every single one was cooked to perfection. The flavors were rich and authentic, with just the right balance of crispiness and melt-in-your-mouth goodness. Not only was the food fantastic, but it was also priced very reasonably, making it an incredible value. But what really sets this place apart is the excellent hospitality. The owner took the time to personally greet us and share the inspiring story of how he started the restaurant. It's clear he has a true passion for both food and people, and it made the dining experience that much more special. From the warm welcome to the great food, this place has it all. 10/10, I'll definitely be back whenever I'm in the Pasadena area. Highly recommend to anyone looking for authentic pupusas and a genuinely great dining experience! ¡Este restaurante es absolutamente destacado! Probé una variedad de pupusas (queso, queso y frijoles, y chicharrón con queso) y todas estaban cocinadas a la perfección. Los sabores eran ricos y auténticos, con el equilibrio justo entre lo crujiente y lo delicioso que se derrite en la boca. No solo la comida era fantástica, sino que también tenía un precio muy razonable, lo que la convertía en una relación calidad-precio increíble. Pero lo que realmente distingue a este lugar es la excelente hospitalidad. El propietario se tomó el tiempo para saludarnos personalmente y compartir la inspiradora historia de cómo fundó el restaurante. Está claro que tiene una verdadera pasión tanto por la comida como por las personas, y eso hizo que la experiencia gastronómica fuera mucho más especial. Desde la cálida bienvenida hasta la excelente comida, este lugar lo tiene todo. 10/10, definitivamente regresaré cada vez que esté en el área de Pasadena. ¡Lo recomiendo encarecidamente a cualquiera que busque pupusas auténticas y una experiencia gastronómica realmente excelente!

Pupusas was the best I've ever had. Street tacos were good. Chips and salsa was fresh. The horchata…read morewas the freshest. Owner is a lovely lady. Small quaint little place. Definitely recommend

Betty's Bakery and Kitchen has some of the best pupusas I've ever had. There are nice artwork…read moretapestries inside that greatly details their history and culture, and it's clean on the inside. Betty's is a small place and they're located in small strip district, so they're easy to miss. Betty's dinner/lunch menu is very confusing though, you'd have to look up whatever dish it is or ask someone. That's challenging because the staff's English is very poor. They are friendly and attentive to their customers, that's what's most important. The prices are decent, and you can tell that every dish and sweets made here are fresh, from their kitchen. The sweet bread selection is vast, and they're cheap. Betty's Bakery and Kitchen is a nice place, but probably not recommended for little children or customers that have little patience.

Primera ves y realmente estoy muy descontenta con la comida. Compré $37 de comida para 4 personas…read more 3 baleadas grades y un plato de desayuno. la tortillas nose si es porque estaba crudas oh que pero se pegó al papel blanco en que las sirvieron. Compre 3 y así estaban las tres. el plato de tajadas de guineos verdes eran como churros, las tajadas extra tostadas , disque guineo fresco rallado y frito, es la forma en que haces las " tajadas verdes "ahí. Nose podían comer con los frijoles por lo tostadas que estaban. Hice un reclamo pero "dicen que así es como ellos las sirven." Aparte de eso bueno el servicio fue bueno, la mesera muy honesta. El ambiente limpio y de familia por el día. First time here and I was overwhelmed this is not an original hondurean place . I bought $37 worth of food the fed 4 people . The banana was very crispy ,like potato chips, not like the original green bananas to eat with cream . The baleadas were folded like tacos and it stick to the paper they serve it with , which make me think that maybe the flour was not fully cooked . I tried to complain but they said that's how is serve . Services was good prior to the complaint. The ambiance was clean and family oriented during the day.

I'm hoping that Christian Bale will add us on facebook, and so are these people (Bale-addus!)…read more We'll see if it actually happens. It's a cute little cheap Honduran restaurant in the heart of a mini-Vietnamese Town, in the same Plaza as the Hong Kong Supermarket and Bambu and iBubble. Featuring Honduran Specialties and other Central American Delights. Autocorrect changed the name of the place to Balleaters, I was like no, that'd be mine and Barbie's place. There aren't enough Baleadas shops in the world and this kind of Honduran food is spectacular and totally delicious - so make sure you swing by and give it a try when you're down here, because we did and we were absolutely thrilled by it. Can't believe this place hasn't got more attention. It's one of about five or six amazing Honduran places we've eaten at in Houston so far. There's also a lot of great Salvadoran and Guatemalan places in these parts, not to mention Mexican. But try this, and see for yourself.

(I think this entry has the wrong house numbering, but the street is correct - 3902 S Shaver St.)…read more I always like to shop for produce and some Mexican groceries at this "chain" of markets found all around Houston. And while I had barely 15 minutes to spend here before going back to work, I figured I'd try to squeeze in some tacos. First of all, you know it's an authentic Mexican taqueria when each taco is built from TWO corn tortillas, as well as when there is a salsa and condiment bar next to the scale. At $2.19, the tacos are a pretty reasonable price with that in mind, and fortunately also with the quality in mind, as the lengua and barbacoa are meltingly tender and converted me to a tongue aficionado, even if my predominant use of English along with my fundamental Spanish knowledge seemed as if it earned me all the tender, meaty pieces of the tongue rather than the flappy white ends that might very well be more "authentic." As long as it tastes good, I don't really mind. One might be concerned when the tacos are wrapped up in foil and then in a bag, to be paid for at the front register along with groceries (as I also bought a bargain wheel of La Vaquita Queso Fresco for some impending chilaquiles), but they stayed together perfectly fine and didn't leak anywhere. The tables are nothing particularly fancy but, at a taco market, never need to be. The interior is basically a supermarket but much smaller, with plenty of meat selections at the butcher shop that seems to give this place its subtitled name. There is even house-made Salvadoran curtido alongside the bevy of salsas, but unfortunately this batch was on its last legs, to expire within five more days, and looked it too - and thus I wouldn't even dare purchase it. I will be around this area a couple of times a month for work and would absolutely return here for lunch break to try a variety of tasty tacos! Not Yet French says "Une vraie taqueria mexicaine ! Cinq étoiles !"

They are ok with everything else but the taqueria serve you so little for a price of a restaurant…read morereally little portions of rice and beans like come on that's cheap to make and you have to mesure that like ok this is the first time and last one I eat here.
