Pupusa Combination

Love their micheladas. Food is good but expensive. Service is good. Can bring kids early not sure about at night. The picada is really good and so are the pupusas.

A hidden gem for Salvadoran food - the pupusas are to die for. Very unassuming location with great service! The coziness makes it feel like you're eating at home. Highly recommend!

Nachos Supreme

We came here last night and had the best time! How can you say no to happy hour until 8PM? We sat in their outside seating. Their menu is massive and the service was great. We ordered our drinks first, nachos supreme to share and each a pupusa. The food was delicious. It was a lot of food but we enjoyed it all! The nachos were meaty and they were fresh. The pupusas were hot. We even did a second round of drinks! This was my second time here and enjoyed it both times! Good food with good company always equals a good time. Definitely coming back here with my parents!

Perhaps the only good that may come out of the world's most dangerous bromance will be growth in the U.S.'s Salvadorian community. After all, right now New York is severely lacking for quality pupusa options. Salvatoria is one of the few purveyors, with a full menu of varieties. My favorite was, as usual, the queso con loroco, an edible flower, with a nice bit of caramelisation on the cheese that leaked out of the pancake. The zucchini variety was a bit plain for my taste. I didn't like the curtido - the success of a pupusa hinges on a nice acidity from the curtido to cut the cheesy heaviness, and this one was rather bland.

Good food. Good and wide selection. Convenient location. Good for big groups. Nice staff.

Ambiance is very loud and busy, and there's tvs in the background playing sports, it was also very warm inside. Though the windows were open, it was much chillier outside and a relief to be outside after eating. The food portion was decent and okay, the meat was on the drier side. Service was good, though they were again busy.

Dirty horchata with whiskey
Kevin M.

I finally found a good Salvadorian restaurant in Queens. I feel like it's extremely hard to find a decent Salvadorian restaurant, but I did. I've had a couple of pupusas from other restaurants but I honestly feel this is the best. I'm Salvadorian myself so it gave me so much happiness & joy. I've had a couple items from the menu sadly I didn't take a picture of everything. One of the best things besides the food was the awesome staff. They were so respectful and fun to talk to, it's a very good atmosphere when you get along with the staff. There was a big group that came in shortly after and just made the atmosphere even better. So now let's talk about the items I had. Starting off with two, not one but two dirty horchata drinks. And if you had horchata before you know how good it is. But also if you never had a horchata this would be an awesome place to experience your first one. I had two different dirty horchatas on my visit, one with whiskey and one with rum. I personally preferred the whiskey one only cause I am whiskey person myself. The rum one was just as good I never had dirty horchata before and I was so happy I was able to experience it. I had a couple of pupusas I had two of pork and two of mixed one with beans and cheese. They were all so good I definitely wish I tried other items of the menu which I didn't sadly but I definitely will go back. Last but not least, my favorite thing off the menu was the bulldog Margarita. All I can say is wow the drink was fantastic they had different flavors of margarita. They all come with a corona in them this and only got the mango margarita flavor. It somebody is looking for a good Salvadorian restaurant or want to eat pupusas for the first time please I highly recommend this spot. I find it's one of the best places you can eat if you want to experience Salvadorian food.

Boiled yucca

Had this place bookmarked since April, thought it looked interesting.I came here for an amazing anniversary lunch this past Friday. For starters the staff was very polite. You Can tell they were a fun bunch. Our waitress was this awesome Colombian woman with amazing long hair! I wanted to sit in the booth that had the felt blue couch. The place was empty and it was 3:30pm. We had came in at a really good time. I had the papusa bomb, steamed yuca and lettuce with tomato salad. My partner in crime had 4 different papusas with these awesomely huge drinks. ::BATHROOM ALERT:: YES! YES! YES! Super clean bathroom. I loved their little corner seat. They have gender neutral bathrooms and a woman's bathroom. The women's bathroom i went into had a baby changing station. Our waitress was super nice we made small talk here and there. The bartender that kept my partners drinks coming, is a very funny person he was cracking jokes. I didn't get his name but he loved bringing over the drinks. For the dirty Horchata get it with whiskey, not rum. Get the mango bulldog drink! Trust me! Now on to the Tip, it's 18% automatically included but we double tipped because of the service. The prices were really good for this location. I would recommend coming for happy hour as well. Make sure you read your bill before going.

Small Picada

My mom introduced me to this place as she would come here with her friends every Friday. I then started coming by frequently because the food was just chef kiss! Until one day my mom said one of the waitresses gave her and her friends an attitude. She no longer went and therefore I didn't either. After a while, I decided to return over the weekend because I missed the food. Customer service was pretty great! I noticed the staff were entirely male this time around. Food was okay, there were some pieces of meat in the picada that was chewy. There was paid parking behind the restaurant which was great so we didn't have to spend time liking for it. We also got seated immediately. :)

Pupusa Espinaca Sola, Pupusa Queso Pechuga Camarones and pepperoni pupusa
Christina L.

Went to this place on a Saturday night with 4 other friends. We walked in and were accommodated right away regardless of our "big" group considering the size of the restaurant with a walk in policy. The servers were very attentive. The food was great. I've never had Salvadoran before, so this is my first time. One of my friends is from El Salvadoran and he had nothing but great things to say from the elotes (sooo good) to the pupusas (also really really good). One pupusa was enough to make you feel full in my opinion but most of the table ordered three each and ate it all. The food tasted fresh and the flavor was amazing. Definitely recommend if you plan on trying a Salvadoran place.

This place was a vibe for me and my Latina friends. I enjoyed the music, it was all Spanish and some of my favorite songs came on. The food was appetizing and priced perfectly! Especially for the pupusas, since there were great portion size. The drinks were good as well. I would definitely come back here! We were a group of 6 and our bill was perfect for our group size.

Papusa Pupusa Combination
Dipali G.

I loved this spot! Perfect for families, group dinners, and even a date night! Food: I can't even begin to start with how good the food is! We ordered so many papusa and they were all so delicious. The jalapeño and cheese papusa was my favorite! The papusa bomb is essentially a giant mozzarella stick with way more cheese that oozes out! The chicken and cheese papusa, the beans and cheese, and spinach and cheese papusa were all so delicious! For the mains we ordered the pollo gallina sandwich, which is a chicken stew sandwich that comes with soup! It was so amazing, the chicken is so well flavored and I especially lived the bread that hero it was in! The soup was also very good and perfect for a rainy day! The papusa combination was great as well, it came with two papusas, rice, beans, sausage, and plantains which were all so good. The papusas also came with pickled cabbage which was also so great Drinks: they have a great cocktail menu and a nice bar! The sangrita - a combination of sangria and margarita was incredible Ambience: there is so much seating, outdoor, indoor and outdoor-indoor seating! Loved the vibe of the place Service: incredible service Price: very reasonably priced especially given how full you will be!

Be the cheese to my papusa! Finally tried the El Salvadorian food papusas at Ricas Papusas & Mas…read more The papusas were pretty good and crunchy. They kind of had a nice tortilla crunch to it. I also liked how the food came with a side of raw beets. The sauces they provided also weren't too spicy and just the right amount of spice. However, the tamale I tried didn't have much flavor to it was kind of dry and flavorless. The flan also wasn't really sweet. It had more of a bitter cough syrup taste to it, I had much better flans before. The food also did kind of take long to come, it was around a 15 minute wait. But it could be because it was only two people running it. This place wasn't crowded at all and had a very simplistic aesthetic to it. Overall, would suggest the Papusas only here, you can skip out on the other items. Price: $4.50 Rating: 6.5

Thank God for another pupusa place in Queens so I've been to a one other one called salavatoria but…read moreI won't compare I absolutely had a blast and this place was so so good as well I got 3 mixed pupusas and it was so juicy and and so flavorful. It's so hard to find any pupusa places in new York cause pupusas aren't really known much but the fact that I'm lucky enough to have tasted two good quality pupusas places. Makes me happy and honestly the atmosphere was great ricas pupusas seemed to be a like a small business and I'm so glad I had the experience. I definitely need to come back and try everything else cause the mixed pupusas were amazing and i don't know what tomato sauce they used it was so so good I highly recommend. I food was so so good the experience was great and the service was fast and the works were so so nice.

Really great authentic food!…read more There aren't many Guatemalan food spots in Manhattan so Tikal is definitely a gem. Yummy, home cooked, family vibes is how I would describe the food and the restaurant. The owner is also very friendly and service is speedy! We had the chicken en pulique and the chicken was so incredibly moist and fall of the bone tender. The tortillas also seem fresh and handmade which is amazing as well. I loved the cuchito. The empanada is very nice in that it's different from the typical wheat empanadas you see in NYC since it is made of corn. The loroco pupusa is something I would definitely come back for too. Essentially, everything was delicious!

New to the competitive restaurant neighborhood of Lenox Hill, Tikal is a welcome edition. We picked…read moreup food the last night and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We ordered tacos with beef and some with pork. They were delicious! The grilled skirt steak was fine if you like your steak well done. For those, like myself, who prefer steak medium rare, it was a disappointment. The chicken entrée in a creamy sauce was a highlight. The mixed green salad was unfortunately mostly iceberg lettuce. The sweet plantains were exceptionally tasty, and despite being fried, they were not too greasy. The black beans were prepared differently than we expected in that they were sort of mashed up and very thick rather than whole beans served in a bit of sauce. Nevertheless they weren't bad. The shrimp ceviche was outstanding! Try Tikal - you'll like it!
