Was traveling through Georgia and was looking for a Peruvian restaurant but stumbled upon this…read moreSalvadoran restaurant and I'm glad we did. As soon as I walked in I could tell this would be home style comfort food. The waitress was very nice and helpful even though we don't speak Spanish she helped us understand what each dish was. I ordered 3 Papusas and a carne quesadilla. Both we fabulous and much more food than I expected . The prices were very reasonable. The food is made from scratch and was truly amazing. I'm glad we found this amazing little hidden gem. The place was also clean and comfy .

I LOVE to travel and because of this I have been fortunate to visit many great places. My main love…read moreof travel is for two reasons: A) for the scenery/architecture and B) for the culture/food. In my travels I've had the privilege of visiting Guatemala twice. I was blessed to have home-cooked meals by locals all throughout the city. Prior to visiting Guatemala I had no idea there were so many variations of Latin foods between Central-American cultures and it was there I had an eye-opening experience with tamales. Guatemalans make their tamales a lot different than the Mexican style tamales I was familiar with eating most of my life. Their tamales were a lot fatter and far moister than Mexican tamales and the masa is softer. I instantly fell in love with the difference, especially after having eaten many overcooked & hard Mexican tamales in my lifetime. So you can't imagine how delighted I was to discover the Salvadoran tamales here @ Star Bakery are similar to Guatemalan tamales. [ THE FOOD ] After my first taste I returned 3 days in a row because I just couldn't get enough of the amazing flavor! Moist, fluffy, flavorful masa wrapped around juicy & oh so tender chicken. The ladies here truly have magic in their fingers, because it's not just the softness of the masa. I hear chicken bouillon is traditional in seasoning the cornmeal used to make the masa, which would explain why it had such a satisfying aftertaste. I also enjoy their Carne Guisada and delicious Fresas con Crema, but was not a fan of the Baleadas. Something about it tasted sour, almost spoiled. My favorite combination is an order of their Corn Tamales paired with the Grilled Steak next door @ Villino's. I ate them together as if they were steak tamales. The two flavors combined are enough to inspire an epic happy dance! On my latest visit I tried the Pupusas after two other customers in line convinced me I needed this in my life. They both recommended the Chicharron con Queso but I was more interested in the Cameron con Queso, so I ordered one of each. Both were great, but that dang Chicharron was AHHHH-mazing and exploded with flavor! They were absolutely right! * Elote Tamales (5 stars) * Pollo Tamales (5 stars) * Carne Guisada (4.5 stars) * Fresas con Crema (5 stars) * Baleadas (1 star) I think I just got a bad one! * Cameron con Queso (4.5 stars) * Chicharron con Queso (5 stars) [ FINAL THOUGHT ] Take a drive to Plaza Las Americas, casually meander to the food court in the rear and treat yourself to some of the best chicken tamales north of Central America. But don't be in too much of a rush because they take a little time to prepare. If you've ever traveled South of Mexico and sampled these amazing tamales, I think you will agree with me on their authenticity and deliciousness. BUEN PROVECHO! 2022 / 82

We were just walking around the food court and saw all the desserts that Star Bakery offered. The tres leches look deliciouis!! Then we saw they had tamales and pupusas!! Yes!! We ordered chicken tamales, cheese pupusas, cheese & jalapeno pupusas. I also got this yellow drink that was so delicious. They let us try it and I'm like wow!!! Food came out quickly. Delicious. They had the best tamales we ever had! The pupusas were so delicious too. I am so curious to try their tres leches next time. Big fan. Will come back! 57/2020

They dont seem to get a lot of business and the business on each side has either none or 1 in them also. This is a places with all the photos on the wall and the prices on them. I like that as I like to see what I hopefully will get. What I really liked here is that my plate, and the few others I saw all looked BETTER than the picture on the wall! How often does that happen!!! Not only that the portions were big and the food was good. I had just eaten at a places that does the same the day before and of all their photos, they only had 3 dishes you could order, the food didnt look like the picture and the portions were small, and for more money!!! So to find this place was a treat! Service was simple but friendly and if your in the market for something like this by all means GO and support them!

It's a bit small in the inside so I ordered my food to go. The wait time was about 20 minutes. I ordered three different types of Papusas (spinach, cheese, beans). I also ordered plantains. The price was ok. The prices for the plantains were a bit pricey for the amount received but the taste was solid.

When i called the restaurant for a refund they quickly felt shame for what they had done and told me to go to the restaurant to pick up the 10$ cash. I told them i live far and they made it a big hassle to refund me, they didn't want to refund the 10$ they were only trying to refund 7 dollars when that was not the correct amount. Besides that the staff is rude one of the lady's kept asking customer after they paid if they had paid. I believe it was her that did this nasty transaction. Beware people, don't let them rob you!

I have never experienced such blatant disrespect and hostility from a service professional in my life. From the moment I walked through the door, the cashier was antagonistic, aggressive, and completely unprovoked. Instead of a greeting, I was met with an immediate confrontation where she had the audacity to claim I was "being rude" before I had even finished my order. It was a bizarre and baseless power trip. Her customer service wasn't just poor--it was nonexistent. The Breaking Points: Hostile Environment: She created a conflict out of thin air and used it as an excuse to provide terrible service. Refusal of Refund: Despite the hostile interaction and the fact that I no longer felt comfortable eating there, she flatly refused to provide a refund for my transaction. Unwarranted Escalation: To top it all off, after being the primary aggressor, she told me to leave the restaurant. It is clear this employee has no interest in hospitality or basic human decency. If you enjoy being insulted and then robbed of your money, this is the place for you. Otherwise, stay far away. Management needs to address this immediately; keeping someone this toxic on the front lines is a massive liability to the business. Take a close look at the previous reviews... it clearly says the cashier is extremely rude..
