My husband and I have been to this restaurant many times and the food is amazing. The customer service is great and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere with upbeat music. My husband says the tacos are the best he has ever had and I have the pupusas which are simply delicious.

I wanted to try this new restaurant. I ordered a pupusa with cheese and loroco, and fried fish. The pupusa was average, I have tasted much better. The fish had no flavor. The fried beans were good but they gave me very little in one little cup. The little salad, was okay. The rice was not great. I did like the tortillas. Overall the food was edible but nothing to brag about. The service was good except that I had to request silverware. Not sure if I would go back.

This is new gem in town. Food and service were both fabulous. Our server was warm, friendly. I had looked up some of the dishes in advance, and our server was helpful in explaining some of the other dishes..We had pupusas, a sweet empanada which we were told had plantain and crème, carne asada, and pollo con tajadas. All were fabulous!

First time here, I had to phone translate the menu, but it was worth it. I had enchiladas Salvadoreñas, and while they were tricky to eat, were delicious. Hubby had Carne asada, the flavoring on the meat was amazing. We each had a fruit drink, trying the Ensalada de frutas and the Fresca Melon.

Food here is absolutely delicious! I had the Carne Asada, Chicken, Shrimp, Ribs and Pupusas. The platter was HUGE and easily enough for 2-3 people. Decent price and excellent flavor. Everything was well seasoned. I will definitely be back.

I have to say that this is one of the worst restaurant experiences that I’ve had in a long time.
First of all, our waitress (if that’s what she was) came to our table, didn’t greet us, and proceeded to ask what we wanted without even giving us menus. When they were handed out, they were written in Castillian or Spanish, which I can’t read or speak. I asked if they had a menu in English and was told no. The waitress stood there and was little help to us in trying to find something to select. I looked for something I could recognize and decided on their enchiladas. When they arrived, they were far from what I remember enchiladas looking or tasting like.
So I am going to give this place low marks, not necessarily for the food but the level of service received. Management needs to train their employees to welcome and help every patron as if they were a guest in your house.
Sorry, we won’t be back and will not be recommending them to anyone looking for a good place to visit for food.

We ordered takeout, and this is my first time ordering here. I’m excited that we now have an authentic Salvadoran restaurant in the area. We ordered two pupusas revueltas (stuffed tortillas with pork, beans, and cheese) and fried cassava with coleslaw. Usually, this order comes with chicharrones (fried pork), but I ordered it without. I’ll definitely be coming back with my family. The restaurant has spacious indoor seating, and there’s parking available within the same plaza. It’s easy to commute from South Hanover or North Hanover. We usually drive 45-50 minutes to Maryland for pupusas, but now we have a local spot!
