    First time here. Wished I had discovered this place earlier. A little gem in the neighborhood. I got tacos, pupusas, and empanadas. All tasted fabulously. The quality is fresh and real. The quantity is huge and the price is definitely so affordable and reasonable. I will be back to try other things. 100% recommend this eatery.

    Delicious food in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. I could tell right away by the smell and vibe that I was going to have great, authentic South American food and was not disappointed.

    I too ordered and was disappointed when there was no regards for a mask or the fact that we are in a pandemic. I just saw your previous response. You’re unprofessional. Someone can be upset that 1. You’re not wearing mask and in the county that your business is in, it is the law to wear a mask. So for you to have left the house without one, you should have went back or keep some in the store for instances like that. 2. You are a food establishment and are disregarding their health concern. You should hope that they did not call the health department. I manage a restaurant and that’s not acceptable. Also, I am a mother of two kids I fully understand child care and not being able to leave them with anyone especially in a PANDEMIC. I also will not let them be out of the house without a mask but this review is not about your parenting. So I will get back to the point. That shield protects you but not the people you are serving. And that’s not fair to your customers. WEAR A MASK. It’s trifling. And I would have loved to leave a review about the food I was excited to eat it. But it ended up in the trash and doordash gave me my money back. Thank you have a great day. #MASKUP

    This Woman can COOK! Pupusas, Tacos, Taquitos all piping hot, all fresh, all DELICIOUS! I'd eat here daily if I had any less self control. Couldn't be more impressed from a place like this.

    Food is definitely good BUT the prices you see on the menu ARE NOT what they charge you. I ordered a fried fish and they asked me if I wanted tilapia or red snapper, I said snapper. The menu showed 13.99 for tilapia, so I figured the snapper would be around that price, they charged me $25 for that plate. Not even in a fancy restaurant they charge that much for fried fish. Pupusas are 2.75, they are good. Tacos are 3.75, also good. The lady who cooks and serves is nice and it would’ve been a great experience if it wasn’t for the overcharge. If you show a price on the menu commit to it, or just adjust the prices. Easy.

    I love this place, The service is great and the food is even better! The pupusas were so so good and I couldn’t recommend them more. The veggie burrito and plantains were also excellent.

    I don't know how I got catfish'd for breakfast,the photos are deceiving I just wanted the tipico, I didn't get any avocados, the beans were not like the red beans in the picture, they were watered down re-fried beans, I got mozzarella cheese instead of goat cheese. The man behind the counter wasn't even going to tell me the avocados were missing if I did'n't say anything.

    eunice, with all respect to your review but no where in the area red-snapper cost $13.99 a red snapper wont cost you less than $30 in any type of restaurant from low end to high end. living cost are going up every day. prices are difficult to maintain always the same. i’m a customer that have been visiting from a longtime and have seen the prices changes but the quality and quantity of my food will never change. if you want to maintain the quality of the of a good product you pay for it. Food is definitely good BUT the prices you see on the menu ARE NOT what they charge you. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Food is definitely good BUT the prices you see on the menu ARE NOT what they charge you.
