The service was great. Our waitress was helpful and very attentive. The food was amazing. We all decided on the Cuban sandwich and it did not disappoint. The only issue (minor), was the sandwich didn't come with a side. You had to order it separately. Other than that everything was fine. It appears that they are extending the restaurant to outside seating area. Good place.

Both of their hibiscus margaritas were 10/10!!

A few of my friends and I checked out Mangos Grill for the first time and had a nice lunch. Each of…read moreus tried a different margarita, and they were all tasty and refreshing. The special Apple Cider Reposado margarita was good but we didn't taste any of the cider, just straight up tequila but it was good. You can also order margaritas in passion fruit, mango, strawberry, and hibiscus flavors. They get extra points because of the passion fruit flavor. The complimentary chips were okay, but the salsa stood out, it had an authentic/in house made flavor. For the main meals, everyone at the table was satisfied. We had an order of the shrimp and chicken fajitas, beef floutas and the salmon a la parrilla, grilled salmon topped with homemade mango salsa served with mixed green salad, rice & beans. The mango salsa was tasty but I didn't like how runny it was. The staff was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the restaurant itself looked clean and well-kept, which made the whole experience more enjoyable. I would come back and try a few other items on the menu. The online menu is a bit different from what we had in person, I didn't see the mussels on the menu given to us in the restaurant. Happy Hour is from 3-7pm. This is a solid spot for a casual night out with friends for good margaritas, authentic touches, and a welcoming atmosphere.

We picked up a few pupusas from here. We were greated right away and our order was taken. We waited…read moreabout 15 min. to get nice hot pupusas. The price was right, the size of the pupusas is good, the flavor was good adding the cabbage and sauce kicked up the flavor. It's a medium size place with a good amount of seating.

This time I didn't have to split any of my pupusas, bwhaha- I savored my own beans & cheese, chicharron, cheese, & loroco, cheese & loroco, and everything- Again, everything was well-seasoned, amply cheesy, and not overly greasy- smothered w.ample curtido & salsa roja. Another fantastic dinner. Staff are super busy, but were very friendly creating our order to-go; they got us in and out quickly, and while we ate it was nice to see how attentive and friendly they were with patrons dining in.

Today I finally had some tacos; I'd held back before because it's my go-to and I wanted to try other things first. The pictures don't do it justice. It's a simple yet flavorful dish; the meat is well done, and the sauces are delicious. I would say if you are not used to handmade tortillas, opt for the traditional corn tortillas, as the handmade ones are thicker, yet they soak the sauces much better; if you feel adventurous, try one, plus taco carbs don't count lol During the winter, they have added hot chocolate packets to the condiment counter.

The service was on point, quick, welcoming, and they actually guided me toward something great instead of just taking the order. Went with the Plato Brian and it was the right call. Everything on the plate was flavorful, well-cooked, and satisfying without feeling sloppy. The handmade tortillas really sealed it for me, there's something about that fresh, slightly imperfect texture that just hits different. Took me straight back to homemade meals. Had to try the pupusas too, cheese & pork is my go-to, and these delivered. Crispy outside, packed with flavor inside. Also, I've been searching for a good horchata around the DMV, and this one is definitely up there. Smooth, not chalky, and a little sweet (which I personally prefer). Big bonus: I grabbed food to-go for my wife, who's vegetarian, and they had legit options, not just an afterthought. She tried the spinach, loroco & cheese, and bean & cheese pupusas, plus the Salvadoran breakfast, and was impressed. This is the kind of place that does the basics really well, and that's what keeps people coming back.

It's always crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and seasoned just right. I usually keep it simple and get it with salad or vegetables, and it hits every time. So delicious. The restaurant itself is spacious and clean, and they stay pretty busy with both dine-in and carryout orders, which is always a good sign. It is located in a sketchy part of Laurel, so just be mindful of that when you're heading over. But overall, if you're craving authentic Salvadorian food, this spot is definitely worth it.

I came here on a Saturday afternoon with a friend, a little after peak lunch hours. The parking lot was full and the restaurant, bustling. From the outside, it doesn't look like much and upon walking inside, it transports you. I ordered 4 different tacos- chorizo, asada, lengua, and al pastor- and a tamarind agua fresca. My friend got the shrimp sopes. The food came out quick and super fresh! The plate came with two salsas and I got more at their salsa bar at the front. Honestly, wasn't crazy about any of them (I tried 6!), which was the biggest disappointment of tbe meal. The tacos were otherwise good and lots of flavor. I was so happy they included the roasted onions, too. There were other menu items that looked phenomenal but will definitely try whenever I came back!
