They didn't have any servers working that night that spoke English, but even with limited Spanish I was able to order what I wanted. It took a good minute before they seated me though waiting for the one server they had that they said speaks a little bit of English. They also only checked on me twice: to take my order and to give me my check. I waited quite a bit for a refill of my drink. I ordered chicken fajitas. It was okay. It smelled very flavorful, but did not taste as flavorful as I expected. The portion size was generous; I did have some leftovers that I took home. Overall, the meal was satisfying enough. I would love to try a different dish next time.

It was late…read moreafternoon on a weekend and the place was PACKED and carry out was also really busy, so I knew we were in the right place. We placed an order easily for some pupusas and tamales to go and waited about 15-20 minutes. Additionally, the prices can't be beat for such great food. It's bright and lively inside and full of lots of staff keeping up with the demand. On to the food, these tamales were the best I've ever had. The masa was so light and fluffy and the chicken and sauce was savory and delicious. My mouth is watering just typing this, I could eat them every day. The pupusas were griddled to perfection, packed with melted cheese and pork, served with a fresh side of flavorful curtido full of oregano and that tasty red salsa. We only got two and the cashier was surprised and I discovered why-- two is not enough. They are so good. Highly recommend this spot if you're in need of some authentic Salvadoran food.

I got 3 mixed pupusas and 3 steak tacos. The pupusas were huge, but they were kinda flavorless. The accompanying curtido wasn't sour enough for my liking, either. The winner was the tacos. Delicious, and affordable at like $2.50 each.

I've never been disappointed, and they keep a busy line. Love their chicharrones and empanadas de plátano de leche, pasteles, and whatever else I have tried from the fritura (fried food) hot bar. They keep hot tortillas in the cooler by the hot bar. The usual butcher is the absolute best! He's very kind and helpful. He always has a wide variety of sausages plus beef shank, smoked pork chops (frozen), and basically anything I need for a good stew, with the exception of my auyama. They even have the most beautiful, very fresh cilantro/cilantro ancho at this location. Ask the butcher for more if you don't see it. I find it well worth going a bit out of my way to pass other amanecer markets to go to this one. The front register service is pretty blah, but they have what I need. Watch the produce though because the prices can be pretty ridiculous at this location, but they're one of few places that have guineo verde (Green banana) and plátano maduro (ripe plantain) always at the perfect ripeness at all times. I do pay the higher price for that there because I've never gotten weird plantains with soft spots or oddly hard ripe plantains here. The more basic produce like cabbage and corn tends to be the most ridiculous price. This is definitely my favorite amanecer markets overall. They have plenty of variety, and they have beautiful-looking seafood in abundance that never ever has an off smell, not even in the least. The habit of storing fresh herbs by the seafood and the butcher handling them would be my only complaint. I'm always cooking my herbs, so I don't worry so much.

The flavors of the beans, eggs, meat, cheese and sour cream blended so well. There were two large pieces and it was budget friendly. The market has all the staples that you may not be able to find in regular grocery stores and is nice to look/shop while you wait for your food. The only downside is the parking is only a few spots in front of the store that's shared with two other businesses and you have to back out into a busy street. I will be back to try other menu items though!
