Genesis — Restaurant in Los Angeles

After giving this place a few tries I can definitely say that I do not like their food. The pupusas are small and thin with very little filling, the beans are watery, the Salvadorian cream is watered down and runny, (you literally need a spoon to eat the beans, lol). You would expect that these foods are suppose to be the staples and highlights for a Salvadorian restaurant and they are not. The flavors are not bad and do taste authentic, however the textures are gross. It seems as though they are trying to save money by watering down and skimping on their foods. Which is why I will no...

My first time and I think it is one of the best salvadorean places I've eaten at. Very authentic! And the prices are a plus. $6.99 for the breakfast plate which includes refried blended black beans, sour cream, fried plantain, avocado, fresh white soft cheese, scrambled eggs with tomato and onions, includes handmade tortilla or french roll. You got to try this place. My mom had the chicken soup with veggies she loved it. We also purchase tamales for $1. Its just amazing. Cash only place! But...

Warm friendly local restaurant with a moderate menu, far better prepared than I could have imagined. Ate there twice so far.

Pollo burrito was fluffy and full, not wet, perfectly prepared Salvadoran style, on a plate. Pupusas of good masa, real Salvadoran cheese, loroco very good, camarones fresh and sweet. Jamaica generous and strong and not excessively sweet.

Not hipster lite fare, lard is used, but perfect proportions, not fatty and heavy.

Oh yeah...
