Wow wow first off, Mamaleh’s thank you! It was my very first time, and after drooling for days over their social media presence I had to go.

As for the pupusas, we all had an upset stomach when we got home. Very disappointing and, needless to say,...

(Before the pandemic the hotdog order came with a pickle) I asked did it come with the order? He had to look up at menu then turned and said no, so I got one anyways because They have the Best tasting Pickles really! It was $2.00 bucks. My total bill was plus the 10% fair wage surcharge $0.90 $10.53 all together! Question though should the customer be informed of that ahead of time so I know before I order?!
