Friendly Staff, Rude Owner
My experience at this restaurant was a mix of pleasant and unpleasant. The staff was friendly and welcoming, creating a positive first impression. However, the owner's rude and dismissive demeanor was a significant letdown, leaving a lasting negative impression. Her lack of professionalism detracted from the team's efforts and discouraged customer return, which is a disappointing approach for a business owner.

Excellent Service and Delicious Food
Thank you very much, Judith, for the excellent service you provided to me and my family yesterday. We were a group of 16 people, and you took our order exactly as we requested. You were very attentive to every detail we asked for in our dishes. The food was very delicious. My only suggestion would be to change the beans that come with the pupusas.

My experience at the restaurant was excellent. The chicken soup was delicious, and the micheladas were perfect. I always have a good time here. Our server, Judith, was very friendly and consistently attentive to our needs.

Small place, okay service, good food
My experience at the restaurant was mixed. The place is very small. The service was just okay; my friend had to wait for his check for more than 10 minutes. However, the food was good.

Delicious Pupusas Highly Recommended!
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! I tried the pupusas de ceso con loroco and the pupusas de chicharon con ceso, and they were incredibly delicious. I highly recommend this place, giving it a 💯!

Best Salvadoran Food in SF!
I've eaten at many Salvadoran restaurants here in SF, but honestly, none have had food as tasty as this restaurant. The food was incredibly flavorful, making it stand out from the rest. The service and atmosphere were also excellent, both receiving a perfect score.

Authentic and Delicious Salvadoran Food
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I enjoyed authentic Salvadorean food that was very delicious. It’s a small place, so they move fast to serve the food, which means there's little to no wait for brunch on Sunday. The service is amazing every single time, and it’s affordable. I highly recommend trying the Pupusa.
