But not just that even tho its a small Family Business is really relaxing and BEST OF ALL THE FOOD HAS ITS OWN UNIQUE TASTE AND ITS GREAT! I am Salvadorian but the Chaufa Mixta its big and delicious. Im just in love with Tallarin Mixto which is for us Salcadoreans Spaghetti with sea food but the seasoning its OMG Great. Customer service is a Plus So theres no excuses. Also, if you like Flan You have to try Theirs, its great I am not changing this place and even if I try their food often I cant get tired of it. Give it a try, you wont regret it. ”
“ The food was wonderful and the waitress was very attentive. I come from Arlington where I had my share of Peruvian chicken and this place is really good. I dont know what others are saying about the price since I think its pretty cheap, a whole chicken plus 2 sides and the sides are HUGE for 15 I think is more than reasonable. I like that the place looks clean and I rather pay for good food than cheap food that can make me sick. I would definitely come back ”
“ This restaurant is amazing. The food is amazing and the wait staff is quick and attentive to their customers. The food was great especially the chicken. I always get the chicken, rice, and a side of frenchfries with their delicious home made yellow sauce that I dont exactly know the name of. Also their lomo saltado is a personal favorite of mine. I dont think the prices are to high for the amount of food you get. very reasonable and affordable. ”
“ This place is great and the food is amazing...and please do not let those people who have complained of the price deter you from enjoying delicious Hispanic food. The food is more than worth the price, besides if these prices are too high for you, I suggest you go to McDonalds...which is perhaps what you are already used to and why you deamed this place too pricey. For those who gave it a poor review because you claim the staff didnt speak English, shame on you! Because the menu is in English and if you want to have an authentic experience, then you should learn how to speak Spanish. Bottom line, this place is the best. The food is 100 authentic and so is the atmosphere. ”
“ The food was so good and the lady making the food was nice and helpful. It was not busy because of the time we went. I highly suggest the pupusa! ”
“ I have to say that this place offers fresh food. Whenever you order veggies or a salad you can see the freshness of the colors and the taste. The owner, Mrs. Nelly is a kind, hardworking woman, that ensures you are well taken care of. I love this place because of the quality food they serve. ”
