    The leaky, greasy chicken patties or pastels de pollo with a watery dipping sauce ‍
    Nikki B.

    I used to order from this spot years ago. The chicken sandwich with fries was huge. It was a chicken breast fried well done, seasoned on toasted big bun with lettuce and tomato and onion. This time I ordered it reflecting on the past. Yet, I saw some new items on the menu. Chicken patties, tamales. I was excited. When my order arrived the chicken patties were so greasy , the oil was leaking out of the bag. It arrived with a sauce and cabbage/slaw in a mini plastic bag together. The slaw was loose! The chicken burger I remembered was now 4 chicken tenders, sauce lettuce and tomato. But the hidden gem of the meal was the chicken tamale. It reminded me of a homemade tamale. It had chicken bits in it, some mixed vegetables all wrapped up in foil in a banana leaf. Very tasty. I don't know in management or just the overall problems with owning a business in Bklyn. Time has definitely changed. Now my expectations have too.

    Best pupusas  that taste just like my Pueblo, Chalchuapa

    Believe me when I tell you these are the closest to authentic Salvadorian cuisine you can get in all of the USA. Everything taste so amazing and it's made with love. If you're lucky when you go and get a chance to meet the owner you'll be delighted to know she's the sweetest person you'll ever meet and you'll be able to feel that she takes pride in her restaurant. I highly recommend if you're even in NY you must make a trip to eat here. PURE DELICIOUSNESS

    If you're looking for a delicious pupusa, look no further. The pupusas here hit the spot. And while it may see like a lot of cheese, get the cheese on top 10/10 worth it. The pork pupusa was quite delicious, but the winner for me was the squash pupusa - I had never had one before and it was wonderful. If you're not in Brooklyn, this place is worth the trip!

    Chicken tamale

    Not a fan of the pupusas they are weirdly small, they are flavorless and the cortido is just ok its nothing to write home about. The chicken tamale was good. I wont be returning as I can go to Continental Restaurant in Brooklyn for better tasting pupusas. The customer service was ok but it was just too many hands in the kitchen. They cook right behind the counter and it was about 6 people there and there was alot of talking going on over the food being prepared.

    Varied pupusas

    We went today and enjoy of really delicious pupusas, we order a variety of flavors and mixs, as well as a delicious side of yuca frita and chicharron, you can let your imagination run free and it will probably taste great as well. They have two tables outside for you to be able to eat there in the spot without feeling COVID compromise. The staff is nice and helpful. Definitely this is a recommended place.

    I visited the spot after reading about it in the New Yorker magazine (September 2020)... it was an amazing place to eat takeout... Pupusas Are the specialty here... They're also shake drinks... Another cold drinks... The menu is very user-friendly... Try the pork pupusa or any cheese Pupuseria.... I had one of the national dishes which is pupusa with a flower additive called "LaRoco " .... Very affordable prices... They also have breakfast dishes as well which are pretty big... For takeout... Checked out their menu... Location is very easy it's on the corner of Flatbush and. East 26 street...

    I stopped by with a friend. This is a casual place, but had some nice seating in a semi-outdoor covered area. The pupusas were great.

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!

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!

I asked about manteca (lard) in the…read morebeans, and the staff took it upon themselves to assure me that there was no pork, no beef products in any of the non-meat dishes. They were so kind and understanding, and made great suggestions for vegetarian items. We took a bunch of pupusas, with spinach, loroco (edible flower), beans and mushroom, all with cheese as well. It doesn't say on the menu, but the $3.50 per pupusa actually includes sauce and coleslaw (that's why there's a two pupusas minimum). There's also guacamole, rice, plantains... everything made to order and quite fast. Pay cash or card. Order to go or stay here. There's a TV but the volume is low enough to talk over it. Restroom in the back.

We decided to try Morritos a small nondescript diner-like cafe with about five small square tables lined up against one wall and a long bar with stools opposite.which extended the length of the restaurant; a large El Salvadorian flag hanging in the front window. We sat at the bar and ordered three Papusas and a chicken tamale. Firstly the tamale was delicious, fresh, moist and chicken seasoned well with small olives and mild spices. it was a very pleasant surprise and we were glad we'd decided to try it, probably the best tamale I've had outside of Mexico (not that I've tried many here). We also ordered a Shrimp, Chicken and Spinach Papusa but they didn't have shrimp at the time so we opted for Cheese & Bean instead. The Papusas were made and cooked right in front of us (while sitting at the bar) they were fresh, soft in the center and slightly crispy on the bottom, flavors were simple, light and good. Not a huge amount of ingredients/filling but I imagine that's how they're meant to be and we were more than satisfied with our decision. Melted cheese oozing from the pancake like dough, small side of coleslaw and sauce for topping. Next time we'll ask for green chili sauce on the side too (noticed someone else order them as we were wrapping up). The ladies cooking and serving were efficient, sweet and prompt. It seemed only one woman spoke English and if you're in the mood for something simple and inexpensive give it a go. This place deserves 4 stars for all that it is.

As a…read morenative New Yorker I have gone to restaurants with every type of cuisine possible and I have never been treated in a disrespectful manner simply because I do not speak the native tongue. Not only was I ignored after multiple attempts to try to engage the servers but others who arrived after me were served immediately. This is shameful and unconscionable behavior in this day and age in a city such as ours. Needless to say I will never return to this establishment and I encourage anyone who reads this review to consider not going to this establishment either. Unfortunately Yelp does not give the option of zero stars as this restaurant certainly does not deserve the one star that appears next to this rating.
