When you walk in you're immediately greeted by a smell of delicious food and a beautiful and quirky interior. They have many drinks and snacks based on the Filipino and El Salvadorian roots of the restaurant! We've had many items off the menu but our favorites are the tocilog, longaniza, garlic rice, and tamal de elote. Portions are large and always fresh. Everyone who works here is also very nice and accommodating. They always substitute garlic rice when requested which I appreciate.

What a hidden treasure this place is!!!…read more A must try, delicious South American food (El Salvador) It's right off merrick road with plenty of parking in the back. Place is clean, waitress (Kanya) was friendly, professional, and very attentive . We ordered the steak with shrimp combo with a side of fried plantains and beans. The steak was tender, cooked to perfection and seasoned very well; mouth watering good! We ordered a side of plantains and beans which was delicious. The portions were huge, we both went home with leftovers. Our bill came to $70 for two.

I was already kind of full but the entrees we got were also very delicious. I wish I knew how to cook fish or chicken that juicy but keeping the outside crunchy-crispy. 10/10 for all the food. Idk why but the music was so upbeat and it kept me feel rushed for some reason but that might be just me! Haha The service was great, the water kept getting filled and they were very attentive. Would definitely come back again!

4 Stars for dine-in. 3 Stars for delivery…read more I think this is the only Pupuseria in Astoria & am very happy about that! Used to go to the restaurant Mundo in this spot years ago. It's a cozy space just a block from the N/Broadway stop & in the heart of a busy few blocks with a lot of restaurant, cafe, bar, & grocery options. Sometimes I forget about this spot because it's just off the avenue, but it's worth a visit! Have dined in (outdoor seating during the summer) & ordered take-out (placed in-person) before. Usual order are Pupusas (chicharron & loroco + cheese - a tasty herb, like little buds that taste basil/oregano-like), Mojito, Pomegranate juice, Marañon juice (cashew apple fruit - like apple + pineapple). Everything was tasty, fresh & well made. The red sauce (bits of oregano) & curtido (pickled cabbage & carrots, a few chilies) with the pupusas are a must! But 3 Stars for a recent delivery (Sunday evening), the quality of the pupusas weren't great (thick), the Elote Tamale (sweet corn tamale with sour cream) was soggy & tasted tinny. Not sure if it was from the foil and/or it had a leak when it was being boiled. Maybe this item isn't ordered often. Good leak-free packaging for the delivery though - lots of tape! 5 Stars for the female UberEats worker who delivered by bike (in December)! I'll stick to in-person ordering & pick-up (the pupusas take a little time to make, but worth it) & hopefully the quality improves. The service & staff has always been great and it's a cute restaurant for a date or even families!

A nice hidden gem after Long Beach or Jones Beach, not far off the Meadowbrook Parkway. I believe the MTA bus to the LIRR drives past here. Everything is made to order and super fresh, I've only had the Pupusas here but I'm fine with that. They have other Salvadorian & Central American entrées, soups, and desserts here. Horchata is on point. The pickled cabbage for the topping of the Pupusas has a tiny kick to it, the tomato sauce has fresh oregano bits. Now onto the Pupusas, even if you don't eat pork- get the pork ones! The ground/shredded pork is seasoned well with spices & herbs (oregano? chiplin maybe?) & patties are grilled nicely. My other choice would be the Cheese & Chiplin (a tasty cilantro-like herb). Delish! Cheese has been missing this herb- why is this herb not in all cuisines?? They have a mixed pupusa (pork, cheese, beans) but I prefer just plain single flavor ones for the full flavor effect. Be generous with the tomato sauce & cabbage! It's a layered taste explosion. Excellent pricing & portions. I've had solo and nice group dinners here. Two large rooms, little ladies rolling Pupusas in the middle kitchen area. Average wait time, as things are made fresh! To-go orders pack a lot of cabbage & tomato sauce in sandwich baggies for you- so family style. A parking lot across the street. I'll be back soon! FYI- Pupusas are not gluten free, but there's lots of rice & yucca with entrees.
