This is a very nice authentic Salvadoran place. I have already had pupusas before at other Salvadoran places, so this time I decided to try something different.
The main thing I had were the nuegados con chilate. Nuegados are these deep fried disc shaped things that come with a sweet honey syrup. They were okay. They reminded me of hash browns except bigger and harder. The chilate was a corn drink on the side. I did not like it that much because it was very bland.
The two other things I ordered I liked a lot. One was a pastel de carne. This was what they call the typical half-moon shaped empanada found in many Latin American countries. It was very moist, flaky, and delicious. The second was an empanada de leche. However, their empanada was an oval shaped fried plantain patty, filled with a sweet milk cream. It was very sweet and very tasty!
I also tried a piece of my friend's steak. The steak was also nicely made. It was not dry at all, well seasoned, and thin like I prefer my steaks.
The staff were also very friendly and greeted us as we entered. This place was a very good find. I am surprised no one else had written a review yet.
