    Pupusa with chicken and pork
    Nick F.

    This was my first time having Salvadorian food. This place was not easy to fine but there is plenty of room inside. I was told by my coworkers that this place was pretty good. I've always heard of pupusas but never had a chance to try them until now. I got myself the pork and chicken with cheese pupusas. If you've never had pupusas before, it's like a stuffed pancake, and two is more than enough for a grown man. What also is crucial to have with it is the pickled cabbage and the tomato-based sauce that comes with it. It may seem like a weird combination but it actually works well and complements the dish. My coworkers also ordered pupusas and they also order fried plantains that came with a sour cream dip and what I only assume was a molé sauce. Turns out that sauce was made from a type of bean; nonetheless, I lost a bet and now I owe my coworker a beer LOL. I would have to try some different dishes before I give my full opinion about Salvadorian food. But as of right now I would call it pretty good.

    Great ! Clean ! Wonderful service ! Wonderful food... hidden jewel , be careful .... it's carb overload but boy is it worth it !

    Free starter tortilla strips and beans with cheese! Yum!!

    Great tasty salvadorean food. Carne asada chorizo plate is the best! The mixed pupusas are excellent. Restaurant is recently remodeled, super clean, great service. Most soots give you stale chips, this place gives a fried thick tortilla strip with beans and salvadorean cheese. I come just for these bad boys! I'm a huge critic but this place gets me right in my tummy! Two thumbs up!

    Bistec encebollado! Bomb.

    I recently discovered The Chicken Koop, and I am addicted!…read more I love getting their half roasted chicken with 2 sides, and it's been on my weekly rotation. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, and it's a decent portion for the price. I also like that they have a lot of sides to choose from, and I usually go for the Brussels sprouts and jalepeno Mac and cheese. The plate also comes with a fluffy naan! You can pick 2 sauces to go with it, and my favorite sauce is the green sauce. I tried the garlic chicken plate once, but I prefer the regular roasted chicken. I haven't been in yet, so I can't speak to the service or ambiance, but the food is delicious!

This location is a little different, some of the menu & Happy Hour options vary, and it is much smaller inside, but they also have an outside patio to sit. The service was good, and quick. My daughter came for a specific sandwich that she loves, and said it was equally good at this location. I came for the chicken and waffles, I asked for tenders instead of bone-in chicken pieces, and unfortunately it was not as good as the Alhambra location. The battered coating is different and completely falling off of the tenders, the waffle was a little overcooked as well. The Alhambra location uses a panko crusted breading and it's so good and crunchy! I don't think I would return to this location.

    I finally made the drive to Downey to try this chicken spot I have been eyeing for monthsssss!…read moreTheir parking lot is located in the back of the restaurant as street parking appears to be limited. They As we are a primarily chicken household, I brought my family with me to try their chicken plates and creative chicken plates. My first initial thought walking into Chicken Koop is that it has calm party vibe... the reason I say this is because through our whole time in the restaurant, they were playing a lot of my favorite songs. For a second, I thought my phone had connected to their speakers, lol! Pictured below is the Fried Chicken Sandwich and the 1/2 Roasted Chicken Plate. The Friend Chicken Sandwich was so juicy and flavorful; the breaded chicken patty had a perfect crunch to it. The 1/2 Roasted Chicken Plate was also another delicious and great choice. The chicken was cooked perfectly- again no dry chicken and it was juicy w a crunchy outer skin. The Brussels sprouts can out perfectly as well.

    I stopped by after seeing it featured on Instagram and got the Belly Buster Sandwich, which is…read morechicken and waffles sandwich. The Chicken: It was just okay. The breaded seasoning had a distinct flavor that felt a bit "off" for a chicken and waffles pairing. The Waffles: it has good texture and taste. Seating: There are both indoor and outdoor seating options, and the bar is partially outdoors. Outdoor Vibe: The outdoor area is covered, but keep in mind there is no AC, so it can get quite warm. I'm glad I checked it off the list, but I didn't leave feeling like I needed to return.

    Located in the Rodeo 72 food hall, I actually almost overlooked this stall as I saw their sign and…read moreread it as "shotz" while also seeing their colorful beverage dispensers so I initially thought they only served drinks. I was glad to be mistaken though! We decided to order their Family Meal Butter Kimchi Katsu Chicken ($46.99 + tax) which came with a generous portion of their crispy chicken drizzled with their original butter kimchi sauce, heaping servings of rice, yummy mac salad and beautifully wrapped spam musubis topped with green onions and furikake. Their butter kimchi sauce is definitely where it's at! While I really enjoyed the food, I think what sets Shootz apart is their amazing and friendly service! The gentleman at the counter was so helpful and nice and really made sure we had a great experience. If you find yourself at Rodeo 72 and are having a hard time deciding what to eat, I definitely recommend giving Shootz a try! There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating at the food hall, and we also didn't have any issues with parking.

    Finally made it out to Shootz there in Whittier, the food hall Rodeo 72.... Oh so worth it but now…read moreI'm frustrated with myself for not going sooner! Just enjoyed my second visit this week and the food and service is amazing. The food hall is nice so there's plenty of tables to sit and enjoy your food. Of course there's other great spots to choose from but Shootz has my heart, and definitely my stomach! wrapped around their concept. The flavors have a wow factor to them that you don't get sick of. Their kimchi butter that they're famous for is all the hype and more. I prefer their spicy option but the regular is good as well. The spice level isn't over the top but if you're a mild to non spicy person I would stick with the regular. Their mac salad is good but I'm a sucker for rice and I love that they have furikake as a topper over the rice, under the chicken and shrimp. Oh that's right, get the number 4! You won't be disappointed. Brandon helped me out the first time, then Mathew when I came back with my parents. Service over all isn't just basic countertop service. Very nice and helpful with questions when we had them. Thank you so much for great service no matter how short the visit! And the onolicios food! Can't wait to come back!

Overall, Pop's Cafe is a solid, reliable breakfast spot that we keep coming back to.
