This place is literally the best place. Our favorite hangout for good simple food. I would tell you not to come here, so a bunch of people don't ruin this spot, but I can't. Everyone has to try heaven wrapped in their tortillas. Try the tacos with Chirrarones con Salsa Verde (Pictured below) and a Modelo to end your day right.
nice little gem in the rough. The food is all natural, made fresh there.
The menudo is a Salvadorian style, and it is delicious. Took a star off for the rice, but honestly I wish I could only take off half a star.
This restaurant is just around the corner from my office. I have lunch there at least 3 times a week. The Owner, Melita, customizes the cooking for me. Believe it or not, I have lost over 80 lbs and the food is awesome. The food is genuine Salvadorian (central American) and she has her own take on popular Mexican dishes. Sometimes I have to order by pointing at pictures :)
The food is good. The service is okay. It's all pretty slow. Don't call ahead if you're not El Salvadoran. They will hang up on you if you don't know exactly what you want in the vocabulary they know. If you're a gringo, good luck. For the rest of us, it keeps the prices low, but you have to be there in person for them to treat you with any respect. Even then, don't expect to be in and out.
