ChilTepe — Restaurant in Long Beach

Sad to say, but we THREW it all away, because of how greasy it was and the lack of seasoning, everything was so plain, what a waste of $70!! The food here is made on the fly with no kind of love.

But the important part was the soup with the huge shrimp and the cheesy pupusa, which came with a jar of pickled veggies that cut down the richness and went well with everything. It was SO satisfying. The soup was creamy, had large chunks of veggies, and juicy shrimp. Definitely a winner.

Would love to come back to try more different soups, pupusas and maybe...

This last time a gentleman served us and he has been the only friendly face yet. He even gave us a sample of their atole, which was super yummy. Other times the ladies seem like they don't want to even take your order. Other than that I love the taste of their...
