Took a gamble on this place and it DEFINITELY worked out! The food at this place is awesome. The pupusas and revueltas took me straight back to childhood. The taquitos were great- crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Highly recommend this place. I ordered takeout because of Covid but can't wait to visit in person. read more

Bad service! Short staffed! Server had a horrible attitude. Save your time go somewhere else! read more

Salvadorian restaurant with great service. Yuca with chicharron is amazing. Its a great place to have a drink with your friends.

Gave me chicken instead of steak. I show the lady the meat, she tells me it is steak! I ask the guy who made it and he tells me it is chicken. He made me another order. When I tell the lady the cook confirmed it wasn't steak she blows me off. She also charged me more than the posted price and when I told her I was eating in added her own tip in my bill as the receipt I got was charged even more money!. Turns out she is the owner!! Food was mediocre to boot. If you want to be treated poorly and scammed this is the place. read more

Holy cow! Off on an adventure and popped into this nondescript, run down strip mall for a bite at this Salvadoran/Mexican restaurant. Pretty low key, small, and a small raised stage at the end, it was pretty empty for our late lunch, but I'm guessing it's jumping on the weekends... I am normally not the type to be able to even watch someone eat an entire fried fish with eyeballs, but the whole fried tilapia was one of the best things I've ever tasted. And when we smiled and gave the chef two thumbs up, she came over twice with plates of fresh made smashed plantains for us to enjoy as well. We've already recommended it to several people, and are ready to go back. You can navigate it well without speaking Spanish, but it could help:) Everyone was friendly, and we are ready to go back. May see if there is some good music on the weekend... read more

Great food great vibe definitely coming back waitress was very attentive drinks were great.

Ordered delivery. Coctel and oysters. Amazing! The cóctel was perfect. Oysters came with fish ceviche. Really delicious!

Ok so the restaurant is kinda dingy looking but everybody agreeed the food was amazing. Carne Asada - Awesome Pupusas - Amazing Burritos _ wow good food in general read more

Mmmmmm pupusas just like my grammy use to make :) just the perfect amount of cheesy goodness and the masa was a lil crispy too! Free horchata refills and all sorts of authentic goodies like empanadas de platano & yucca frita. Not the greatest looking place (considering the area) but the waitresses are very sweet, service can be a bit slow but ends up being worth it at the end. Here's a tip though.. I prefer going during the weekday if I'm eating there because the last time I went on a weekend (and actually was the last..) it was filled with drunk, immature, stinky young/old men and service was even slower due to the serving of alcohol to these locals. Regardless.. food was great. read more

Worst restaurant ever. Staff is rude. Always cancels Doordash orders. Can't follow instructions or orders. Don't waste your time.

This restaurant is one of my favorites in the valley, I have been visiting this friendly place for years... and let me tell you, I always come back. There is always something new! this place is getting better and better. The food is excellent and of very quality at a lower price. The waitresses are always smiling and looking for the way you spend a good time. On the weekends they have karaoke at night so this place is busier than usual. The owner is always there greeting the customers making sure everything should go the right way. From my point of view this restaurant is as good as many good restaurants around. read more

Wonderful food! But more importantly, wonderful customer service. Ordered through doordash (little late night snack) and no dasher accepted the order. I called the resturant, 5 minutes before closing assuming they would just cancel my order. Instead they said we will drop it off ourselves! Not only did they deliver within 15 minutes, the included a couple sodas as an apology. GREAT experience with them will definitely be ordering again!!! read more

Amazing staff & music. Karaoke nights are so much fun! The parking can get complicated so parking in the street might be better.

I've been here twice already and so far I haven't been disapointed. The prices for the portion of the food that they serve are very reasonable. The taste and the service is awesome! I will come here more often to try their different menu. -Paw- read more

Not worth the hour wait for our small group(8). We were the only ones there too. Ridiculous! Damn you SSG H.

The shrimp ceviche tostadas were not good at all. The tostada mixta had octopus and the octopus wasn't good. The food here is bland with no flavor read more

Soooooo slowwwwwwww one burrito to go 55 minutes only one other person in the restaurant and it's the manager eating with her friends ‍

Good place for a quick bite. It appears that on certain days the have live entertainment. I had a pretty delicious Cóctel Campechano which is a mix of different sea creatures lol like Octopus, shrimp, fish and a whole lot of different things but o boy it was delish. read more

Random area, but great food and cheap prices. 5 dollars for a shrimp burrito that huge. Been here for 3 years straight, thanks for being open. read more

First time I went, I ordered 2 tostadas De ceviche. They were super good! The next time I went, the ceviche smelled old, and expired. I couldn't even eat it and had to throw it away since I had ordered to go. And the avocado that they gave me had a lot of black spots. I will not be going there again for fear of getting food poisoning. And vtw, both times I went in, there were no customers. I don't think they have much business, so that's probably why they try to get rid of their old food by giving it to customers instead of throwing away old food, and making it fresh. read more

amazing a1 quality so far everything from a parrillada , camarones ahogados en limon , ceviche to a caldo 7 mares and tacos are ridiculously delicious !!! every thing is made from scratch upon order . its family owned its ran ,operated by the owner herself, she even does the cooking. shout out to her and her daughter as well . both have provided myself and my family with second to none service , make me feel very much at home . there's also entertainment all at super reasonable prices ( the cost is ridiculous inexpensive. makes you feel still owe them) read more

This was my first time there and will definitely be my last. My husband and I came in to place an order to go. It took 40 minutes to get the order. There were only 3 other customers! One of the waitresses who may have been an owner, was selling Avon to customers and advertising deodorant. There was a man in a jersey and jean shorts who came out of the kitchen looking like he works as an auto mechanic, he was so dirty. I asked for two waters while we waited for my kids and it took the waitress 10 minutes to bring me water. And.... she only brought 1. The facility is dirty. They have a yellow mop barrel and mop Standing in the kitchen right in the view of the customers. I took my son to the restroom and it was nasty. I thought I was walking through a place in a third world country. there was an opening to the kitchen. The counters were cluttered with food and non food items. It looked very dirty. I don't know how they manage to get a grade A. This place looks like it hasn't been cleaned in months or years. There were cases of beer under end tables. We paid $70 for a couple tacos, shrimp fajitas, a plate of grilled mixed seafood, taquitos and one taco with ceviche. When we got home and opened the containers, it was mainly rice with a little bit of shrimp. I say, if i knew I was going to wait that long and not get that much, I would have gone to Salsa and Beer. read more

The 1st time we went the shrimp cocktail was nice and cold, yesterday we went and it was barely cool temperature!!!!! The Salsa taste quite expired! I ordered a plate for my kids and they only ate the 5 pieces of shrimp it had... kids. Lol There is no good customer service unless they probably know you. The server seemed lost... Saw a dead roach in the restroom.. read more

My boyfriend and I eat here once in awhile as we live close by. The food is great and service is friendly enough.

Best shrimp burrito ever and for only 6.50 I come here all the time and I can say I recommend it and the people are very friendly

Worst pupusas ever....i bought 25 of them and spent 50 bucks...and they sucked big time..the masa is bad....the cheese is probably old processed non natural ...really bad taste..i ordered to go and all the people i took them to, said they sucked...someone actually spit their bite out....the restaurant is dirty looking....i actually wouldn't mind that if food was good read more

Small simple restaurant. Yet really good food (Mexican and Salvadorian) at very nice prices. I liked the seafood dishes (shrimp cocktail, shrimp tacos, fish tacos, shrimp soup) and sopa de pata. Have to try many more items! read more

I have eaten here several times and the food has always been very good. I was craving shrimp ceviche so i decided to give them a call and place an order to go. I was told I could pick it up in 20 mins. I told them I would pick them up closer to a half hour to an hour because i had to run an errand before i came there. I ended up picking up my food an hour later because i got held up. I was very surprised when I showed up, they couldn't find the waiter who was going to give me my food. When she finally came over to the counter, she couldn't find my food because she was looking in the fridge where my food should've been, since it is seafood we are talking about, but instead my food was sitting right on the counter. I asked her if I could get some chips since i knew I would probably not be able to eat the shrimp cause i didn't know how long my food had been sitting out, and she told me they were all out! I have eaten there many times and my experience had always been a very pleasant one, but after that night, I don't know if I will be going back. read more

The food is great! Cool atmosphere. It's definelty a hole in the wall place but that's what makes it so cool, especially since the food is delicious. read more
