    I guess the food in this place requires a special background to like. For me it was disappointing with health concerns thereafter.

    this is a beautiful spot with a wonderful selection of pupusa's, agua Fresca's, the service is so…read moresweet and the owner Doña Lola was so kind to come say hello to me this restaurant transports you to El Salvador in a way of authenticity with its pupusa's and fresh Cortito and salsa de Salvador I had a wonderful time trying their rice pupusa's, which is something I haven't seen and other local Dallas pupusa Reyes the amount of Larocco they put in the pupusa was perfect for me. It wasn't too much. It wasn't too little. I thoroughly enjoyed trying their pupusa Loca, which includes Chicharron Salvadoran or pork, Salvador and beans, black beans, Larocco and cheese they even have pupusa's to go, and I love that they have a beautiful logoon their products. Love the cartoon of Doña Lola. It's very adorable. I give this place a 10 out of 10 this is because I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of my experience here I even brought some home to the family go here you wont regret it. I adore the way it feels like El Salvador and is very home-like restaurant feel. THERE IS A 15% SERVICE FEE for dining in. So please keep that in mind. Also at some points there is a woman who is a little sassy that works there.

    Shocked that I could only find one mention of the 15% service fee added to every dine-in order…read more Though it is printed at the bottom of the menu, there's no explanation and they still ask for a tip when you pay. We've been here multiple times over the past few years and are usually happy with the taste and quality of the food (4 out of 5). Service is good, nothing special (3.5 out of 5). But we won't be coming back because we don't want to pay the service fee and then tip as well. Where does the service fee go? Do the servers get it? We could accept a small 3% fee for credit card purchases, but a 15% service fee is unreasonable.

We had seen the place on Yelp and planned to grab something quick to go, but it turned into a great stop. The location is fantastic and convenient near the airport. The hostess was welcoming right away and directed us to the bar so we could place a quick to-go order. At the bar, the bartender gave excellent service and convinced us to try a couple of tacos along with the yuca fries and plantains we originally planned to order--and I'm glad he did. The Tacos Al Carbón were outstanding: grilled fajita beef with sautéed poblano and onion on flour tortillas topped with pico de gallo and guacamole. The steak was tender and full of flavor. The beans and rice were just right, and the plantains with coconut sauce were a perfect addition. The bartender also recommended a Stone Delicious IPA, which made the short wait enjoyable. We grabbed a Tamarindo agua fresca and bolitas de yuca for the road--light, flavorful, and perfect for the drive. Great food, great service, and a great find near the airport. Definitely worth stopping in.

For appetizers, we enjoyed the queso verde which was very green with roasted poblano, & corn. We chose to add short rib to it as well and it was quite tasty. Definitely more of a liquid-y dip than a queso fundido style. Along with a trio of salsas and chips. I had the beef fajita for my meal and I enjoyed it and it his the Tex-mex spot for me as well don't have many Mexican restaurants in SoCal that serve fajitas. It was a nostalgic treat. My friend got the short rib enchiladas with queso oaxaca, red chile sauce, crema, radish, cilantro, queso fresco & caramelized onion. She really liked it as well even though she said the red chile sauce was spicy for her. My margarita was tasty as well.
