I used to come here more often when I worked in Richmond as it was on my way home. Yesterday, I was…read morein the area and figured I would stop by. I am so disappointed at the food changes and feeling bad to give a bad review as I love supporting small businesses and love Salvadorean food. There's a lot of room to improve. I've been eating Salvi food since I was child. If you order to go check before you leave. I had an item missing. I called and was able to get a refund. She handled it nice too since she forgot to add it. I took food to go. I added pictures on all. The tamales both chipilin and pork were good. The masa was excellent. The size was small to medium. The pupusas are tiny, they are good but nothing extraordinary. As they are small there's no cheese stretch or a good feel about the filling. The masa is good. The quesadilla pasty was crumbly, it did not feel fresh. It was dry with no flavor compared to ones I've eaten before. The best Salvi quesadillas are moist. The guava, pineapple, and custard empanada pastry were small. The pineapple one did not feel fresh, more on the dry side, crumbly compared to other flavors. The pork empanada was probably the worst. They were tiny with hardly any filling. The empanadas usually have a ground meat or shredded chicken. This one had pieces of pork so it was not flavorful at all. There's table seating indoors and outdoors. The yucca con chicharron was okay too. Usually it comes with a salad like but this one came with 1 beet, 1 slice of tomato and 1 slice of cucumber with a small bag of curtido. No sauce. Tip: The server gave me a business card and recommended to call for orders to go as the waiting time was 30 minutes. I did not mind waiting. I appreciated her sharing this. Tip: recommend the pork tamal. The pupusas if hungry get at least 3.

The meat is the highlight, and I recommend something more flavorful like Pastor or Carnitas, though even the chicken is pretty good. The rice is a little dry, but the hot salsa they provide helps even it out. The pupusas, however, are easily the highlight. Best I've had, ESPECIALLY when you get them for takeout. My theory is that being in the package lets them steam in the condensation for a while, so by the time you get them home, they're the perfect texture without having dry edges. I've been here a hundred times and will likely be back a hundred more.

Despite being bilingual and of Mexican descent, I was treated differently because I spoke English. Due to the stress of caring for a sick son, I was somewhat distracted. After paying for my order, I briefly stepped away to retrieve rice pudding and salsa, then encountered a nephew and placed my food next to the items I had already paid for. In my haste, I inadvertently took everything and exited the store, only to be confronted by the entire staff, who alleged that I had not paid for the pudding. I produced my receipt, which confirmed their suspicion, and returned the pudding. However, the security guard had already blocked my vehicle and was not permitting me to leave. I attempted to reverse, but he jumped onto the hood of my car. Eventually, he disembarked, and I was allowed to depart. Upon reviewing my receipt, I discovered that I had been charged for sodas that were not provided. I returned to the restaurant to collect the sodas and informed security that their actions were unjustified. I am currently consulting with an attorney regarding my rights, as I believe I was a victim of assault, battery, false imprisonment, and property damage. What happened to me is crazy today I went in to order my food to go. First of all I get treated her different because I speak English. I am Mexican I also speak Spanish and understand.
