My family and I recently had the pleasure of dining at a this wonderful family-owned Salvadorian restaurant, and it was an absolute delight! The atmosphere is vibrant and colorful, really reflecting the rich culture of El Salvador. The place is impeccably clean and welcoming, making it perfect for families. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring a top-notch dining experience. Plus, there’s plenty of parking, including handicap access, which is always a bonus. And the menu is a treasure trove of authentic Salvadorian dishes that are absolutely delicious. Overall, it’s a fantastic spot that I recommend for anyone looking to enjoy genuine Salvadorian cuisine in a warm and inviting setting. Definitely worth a visit!

Friendly family restaurant with Delicious homemade meals. The fruit drink is refreshing and pupusas masa was nice and soft. Next time will request to pay for additional chicharon inside the pupusas.

Delicious&freshly made, from the pickled cabbage & cauliflower, to the amazing pupusas nice and hot from the kitchen to your table, every dish we ordered was tasty, and let’s not forget the Micheladas which was a nice surprise when we arrived that they have drinks to go with our dinner. Definitely a little Gem in El Monte, not too far from the Frwy and a family business that puts as much care into their food as their clients.

The pupusas are pretty good flavorful and they don’t over stuff them with beans. Good cheese and beans and pork ratio. The young lady at the register was so sweet. Check out their 6 for 20 pupusa deal definitely worth it

I was very impressed, the food was hot and delicious. Lately we’ve seen quality drop at so many restaurants but this one’s a keeper! All my coworkers loved the pupusas revueltas and I tried a chicharon con queso both equally delicious and generously filled. I also ordered a plantanos con crema y frijoles (plantains with beans and sour cream) which were perfect. The order even came with a piece of cheese and two handmade tortillas!

I absolutely loved this place 18 years ago and I still do. It’s hard to find good Salvadorian food and it has kept standing through all the years.

OMG the food was absolutely positively incredible! I didn’t eat for 16 hours so I could come here and eat as many pupusas as I could. The lady at the cashier was friendly and charming. She recommended great selections. I could tell she was proud of the food she was serving. The food was freshly made and came out hot and delicious . Would definitely travel 4 hours again to come back here.

“If you haven’t tried Don Carlos Pupuseria, you’re missing out! The pupusas are packed with flavor, the curtido is perfectly tangy, and every bite tastes like authentic Salvadoran home cooking. Portions are generous, prices are fair, and the service makes you feel like family. A hidden gem that’s absolutely worth the visit!”
Yum
