    Muy Bien! Super yummy, home cooking and no fuss style vibe, down to earth Salvadorian grub in a comfy, laid back and local joint. The food was dope and took me back to my travels in Belize! It was extremely authentic, all made in house with simple, yet bold flavors boasting incredible individual tastes which shows from the simple fact it is booming with locals. We shared a Espinaca & Queso Pupusa and each had the Fajita De Camaron (Grilled Prawns) which was all delicious, vibrant and very fresh served in a plentiful portion. The staff are great, extremely enthusiastic, hard working and incredibly talented at making awesome food. I totally dig their in house hot sauce, it's phenomenal! Support local businesses!

    Wow what a wonderful surprise. Today was my first visit to Vicky's and it will not be my last. There are not to many restaurants in Lewis county that are very good, in my opinion, but this one changes that. I ordered revuleta pupusas and steak ranchero with hand made corn tortillas. From the first bite I knew I was in for a treat. The flavors are so organic, almost earthy tasting, in the best way possible. Spiced perfectly and more food than one person could eat, Vicky's is a must.

    Friend took me here to try it. Him and my husband really enjoyed their food, which is pictured. But they should do their own review. I ordered a Carne Asada burrito and it was FILLED with rice and black beans and had a piece of Carne asada every other bite. For how expensive it was, it was completely unacceptable. No joke, there was probably 5 pieces of meat in the entire burrito. The guys had the molcajete dish. It was filled with cactus, chorizo, steak, a piece of shrimp, and something else. The chorizo was delicious, but it was petrified. Food was not great for the wait. Waited 20 minutes for a menu. Waitress was in the back doing whatever. Finally served and was never talked to again until the end of the meal when everyone was practically done and all our beverages had been gone for a while. Poor service. The interior needs cleaning, for sure. Everything was sticky. Every surface looked/felt like it had been wiped down with a watered napkin. I'm not one to leave bad reviews. I leave honest reviews, based on my opinions. If you try it and like it, that's awesome! I tried it and won't be coming back. I know several other restaurants in the area who will deliver on my expectations, for a fraction of the cost. 🤷🏽‍♀️

    Authentic and clean . Good service. I got a pupusa and it was hot and fresh and hit the spot. Rice and beans great too, not greasy. My spouse who is a bit of a burrito connoisseur enjoyed hi burrito. I would definitely recommend this place rather than the other places that will pop up as u get off the freeway

    Our food came quickly and the flavors were rich and tasty. Definitely worth a try don’t be fooled by the modest building. I’m sharing my experience with my foodie friends.

    This place is excellent. During a recent 2 week road trip of Washington state this was easily the best restaurant we ate at. Everything was well seasoned and delicious, and the provided salsas were great and not holding back on the spice. The revuelta pupusa and yucca/chicharron appetizers in particular were amazing. Having lived in a few cities with heavy Salvadorian populations, I would go so far as to say this might be the best Salvadorian restaurant I've ever been to. Based on the demographics of the folks eating there, I would hazard a guess that the locals agree. A must go if you find yourself in or passing through Centralia.

    Having been in El Salvador, I found the food authentic, especially the pupusas. I recommend Vicky's highly. I'll definitely stop there again when in the area. And the service iced the cake, as they say.

  • 5/5 Jared A. 8 months ago on Google
    I had the steak fajitas, they saute green peppers onions and mushrooms which adds great flavor, and the refried black beans are so good as well as the rice! Pupusa's are delicious!

    Got some papusas from here. They were delicious and piping hot. Definitely a place to try if you're craving papusas and Salvadoran food!!

    Cute Restaurant, excellent service, delicious food and good portions. :)

  • 5/5 Brad H. 10 months ago on Google
    Had an excellent dinner tonight here. Salvadoran food is similar to Mexican, but different and better IMO. We will definitely be back here more often than not when we are hungry for Mexican (like) food. 👍

  • 5/5 Liisa S. 1 year ago on Google
    Friendly staff. Scrumptious food. Camarones a La diabla, bisteq encebollado and a fabulous pupusa revuelta. First Salvadorian food experience and excited to go back to try other dishes.

    Brought me the wrong food. Rice was cold and hard. It was my daughter's birthday and they didn't even offer a desert but there was a hair in her food so she didn't eat either. They did remove her plate from our bill but we won't be going back. So disappointing.

  • 1/5 Veronica S. 1 year ago on Google
    Disappointed the pupusas were nothing like what was pictured on menu. Having been to El Salvador several times I had experienced them several times. If the cook didn’t know how to make them, the waitress could have let us know. She was not very talkative or helpful.

    It is effing fantastic. Mojitos and margaritas are real (ef you mix) and food is home made goodness. I had the Carne Guisada and the meat was melt in your mouth. A+++

    A hole in the wall offers great food at a reasonable price. The staff was friendly and very welcoming. We got a steak quesadilla, steak salad, chicken/shrimp/steak tacos, and burritos. Everything we ordered was yummy and delicious. They had two AC units but looks like both units are broken. A bit too hot so we end up ordering take-out and eat in our Telsa while it charged. Don't let the look of this place question you. Is worth giving them a try.

    I have only eaten a couple of times in this restaurant, the food and the seasoning seem good to me, the staff service is kind and friendly which is appreciated; The only reason why I only give 3 stars is because of the facilities and the smell that is perceived in the environment, which is not necessarily the food, I am almost sure it emanates from the bottom, I assume it is the old carpet that makes the place smell a combination of humidity and old which is even impregnated in clothes and hair, I trust that my review is taken with the sole purpose of improving in this regard and of course I recommend the food at this place.

  • 5/5 Kristina D. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing! We had not had Salvadoran food before so we picked a variety of things from the menu with help from the owner. I'm just assuming it was the owner because she was so incredibly welcoming and helpful. Everything was extraordinary. She even included a birthday treat in our order. So thoughtful!!! We will definitely return.

    Good lord the food here is good. My boyfriend stumbled across this place on his way back from the transfer station and was so blown away he brought some back to me at home. We went back and has dine in for lunch. It was all still so good and the people are kind and genuine. They have regular Mexican food there, but the highlight of the place is by far the Salvadoran dishes. Look for items with the Salvadoran flag on the menu and go nuts. Make sure you choose the home-made tortillas... Maybe I should order some pick up again now that I think about it.

    Amazing! I had the bean and cheese pupusas and fried plantains. Thinking about them makes my mouth water. My husband is allergic to tomato and corn. The rice doesn't have tomato in it and the meat is marinated in tomato sauce. He was able to get flour tortillas. I an vegetarian and the beans do not have lard. Staff very friendly. Food was delicious. Definitely going back!
