Pupuseria Mama Tana — Restaurant in Baltimore

Amazing Salvadoran restaurant that looks small on the outside but is spacious in the inside. It's nicely decorated with plenty of tables.

The menu features simple dishes and even a kid menu but I advise to stay away from those and try the pupusas, baldeadas, chicken tamales and more.

We ordered pupusa loca which is a fried corn cake pan fried and filled with beans, pork, chicken, and cheese with sub edible flour.

We dined with 3 kids under the age of 7 and they each had a pupusa filled with cheese and pork. We ordered a side of fried plantains that came with beans and cream.

We pretty much had a feast trying dishes we never have had. Additionally we ordered chicken tamales that were steamed in banana leaves. It's quite different than normal tamales but great tasting still. Everyone should visit this place.

Everything is made fresh from the corn cakes, flour tortillas to the tomato sauce that goes on top of...

We stumbled upon this Mexican restaurant and were immediately intrigued by a towering stack of papusas on display. We initially thought it was one massive dish, but it turned out to be a generous serving of individual papusas. Each one was perfectly cooked, boasting a crispy exterior and a flavorful filling.

I don't even know where to begin....when the waiter was asked for kid's drink, they didn't have any; was asked for a cheese quesadilla and he said they didn't have that either. Another thing they didn't have which is a specialty drink in a Salvadorian restaurant is atol de elote,, they didn't have that either. The food was ordered a long with hot coffee, horchata, and hot chocolate; when everything came out, you would think and expect that everything that needs to be hot will be hot.....noooo the coffee was warm, the hot chocolate was room temp, and don't even get me started with the food... COLD!! Like this was my first and last time going to that place! Worst first experience ever!! Do not go there! They shouldn't even be called a Salvadorian...
