It was good. the food was good. I ordered a couple of dishes, including pupusas. I think in my opinion it's a bit pricy but it is normal when you are trying to eat typical food from other countries . the Atol de Elote was super good 👌9.5 out of 10. the pupusas I can say it was 7 out of 10. and the Desayuno tipico, the eggs with Choriso, was super good. the rice and beans were plain, so I did not like it. Overall, on that dish, 6.5 out of 10. the service was really great and the ambient was good. Will I come back ? Probably.

Amazing. First of all the server made me feel like family. Her energy is amazing, it made me never want to leave. The food was spot on. I think I need to visit El Salvador now! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Amazing pupusas! We got cheese and cheese with pork pupusas. The sauce and cabbage medley were excellent. I was honestly pretty surprised by how good they were (the burnt cheese bits were drool worthy). My friend took me on the tour of Provo and we ended up here. The food was decently priced and it was authentic as they come. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $1–10 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes Pupusas De Revueltas

I got two pupusas: Bean and Cheese Papusa, and Cheese Pupusa! They were very good! I didn’t really know what to expect, I had never had them before. A coworker of mine had brought them up to me. The worker who took my order was very friendly and helped answer a few questions I had. I would recommend this place to others.

After going a couple more time i have to severely change my review. Yes the food is still good, pupusas, Salvadorean horchara are a must try. But the people running it and service makes you not want to go again. The location is small and seatimg is very limited. They can fit more if they used different tables. The wait time is ridiculous! Waited 1 hour for 4 pupusas Last couple times we have been here other tables who got there after us and ordered after us got served before us, I have seen the same with other tables as well where they came before and everyone else get their order before them. When we ask for ETA after waiting over 45 mins the guy is super rude and dissmisive. A couple left without ever getting their food and the guy was rude to them still. Guy with all the tattoos definitely needs training and the back also on getting food out in a timely manner. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 4 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 4
This is a jewel of Provo. They deserve every positive review because of their delicious and authentic food that is very reasonably priced. The staff is pretty awesome, and they work pretty fast. The food comes hot and ready, and does not disappoint. If authentic food is what you’re after, you have to come here. Is you want specifics, the Papusas are amazing and verified by someone who has lived in South America for years to be genuine. Notice that the negative reviews here are because the place is dirty and too small because the place always has tons of people wanting their food. Take note of that because the food is incredible and if you're okay with the fact that it's a small family business trying to serve the best authentic food, then it makes a whole experience better. Have you been to restaurants in Central America? This place is nicer than the majority of those (verified by my wife who was lived in central America for 2 years)

Went in there for the first time and was very excited to give it a try. Only asked for 5 pupusas between my wife and I and 1 tamal. Waited 1 hour and only got half the order. Told the cashier that we were no longer interested in the remaining half of the order and wanted to charge us the full price. Horrible service. Will not be returning!

The pupusas are awesome. People are nice. I was in El Salvador for 2 years and the decor and food represent very well the Salvadorian feel. Papusas are super yummy and highly recommended. Can't go wrong with the chincharon y queso (Pork and cheese).
