El Sabor Restaurant — Restaurant in Keller

This was a nice, different, mom and pop place in Keller. It's a relaxed setting here. No real bustle and urgency from the patrons or staff. Everyone was just there to sit and visit and enjoy.

No alcohol served here, so if you're looking for a place to grab a beer or margarita with your food, this isn't it.

If you're not familiar with Salvadorian food, it looks similar to Mexican food, but is also not. You'll get chips and salsa when you sit down and I'd strongly advise against eating any. There's nothing wrong with them, and I thought the salsa was good and actually had a little bite, but don't get full on a texmex staple when you're out to try Salvadorian.

You're gonna see lots of Yucca and Plantain on the menu. Chicharrón is also popular. Lots of seafood as well. You want a whole fried fish? Done.

We ordered some "nachos"/mini tostadas for an appetizer, then ordered 6 pupusas (think a thick tortilla stuffed with whatever filling you picked) and a side plate of yucca with chicharrón and a side of plantain with cream. The nachos are made on what look like a tostada shell cut in half, or just a large half moon chip. White cheese with beans and carne asada on top. There was a seasoning to it I couldn't pick out. We ordered 6 pupusas so we could try a variety of flavors. They all came out on a single plate. They look small and thin but they are not. To accompany the food you get a bowl of shredded and pickled cabbage and a bowl of cold red sauce to top it all off. The sauce is not intended to be spicy, so give it a try. One of the best parts of the meal was the drinks. They have a large menu of aguas frescas to choose from. Just bust out Google to translate everything. Just think lemonade but made with passion fruit, as an example. They also had lemonade and it was delicious. It's a great place to stop by for a meal and we'd all definitely like to go back and try more of the food. They also have a small market of Salvadorian food items to take home that you'll see when...

My mom and I had been out looking for a fish and chips food truck that I’d seen advertised on Facebook and when we couldn’t find it after an extensive parking lot scouring I did a Google search for fried fish and El Sabor came up nearby in the search.

Corn, pork and seafood are items used a lot in Salvadoran cuisine and it sounded good and unique so we headed for the restaurant at the end of the shopping center across the street from our original hunt.

We might not have seen it at all from the road as it sits back in a corner, but the search made it easy to find and it turned out to be indeed a pleasant environment where we were seated a very friendly, pleasant looking young man with a smile and across the way from a very large head to toe covered tattoo who didn’t seem any less congenial. ;-)

The menu was substantial, focusing on the food I found to be a favorite named Pupusas, which are a little bit like quesadillas in a poofier, more comforting bread and come with a large selection of stuffings. There are a wide variety of these and that is what we ended up trying for lunch, though the menu has an expansive number of other items, all of which looked incredible including breakfast which is served all day long.

There are professionally handled pictures of the food up on the wall in case you’re a person like me who walked in without her reading glasses, which makes it easy to see all the delectable tidbits from which you have to choose, and they are all very appealing with entrees priced at about $12 to $20 dollars per plate.

I’m so glad we stumbled into the shop. It was totally worth the...

Loved the Pupusa Loca! Me encantó la Pupusa Loca! I will NEVER be able to see pupusas the same again after that. Literally. Revueltas will seem so passé next to that. The tacos were ok, but you're probably coming here for the pupusas anyway. I was originally gonna get the pollo en crema that I saw on the wall, but couldn't find it on the menu and then just went with the pupsa loca and some tacos. Someone else got the caldo and also got the loroco pupusas. For dessert we got an empanada that had maizena and a banana in it, was great.

They have a bunch of aguas frescas too. I got the guanabana/soursop (was great and made there, including pulp - NOT powdered like in some places). They also had tamarindo, lime, horchata and several other aguas. Worth a stop if you're in the area and want some pupusas or Salvadorean food. Also, not everyone in our party spoke Spanish, so it was helpful that the waitress knew English. She said her English wasnt very good, but I disagreed, I thought she definitely spoke English proficiently enough to take the orders of the English speakers in our party. She was also very attentive. If for nothing else, try the Pupusa Loca. You will NEVER see Pupusas...
