Hands down the best salvador food in houston! There breakfast are particularly good, definitely not a place to skip. Service and waiters are a bit rude but other then that, amazing!
I don't know why this place has a few stars. The prices are moderate. They have a slew of baked goods. I ordered a spinach pupusa. That's the first time I see a spinach and veggie pupusa. The size is generous and it's served with the usual tomato sauce and the cabbage (curtido.) The pupusa was quite good. I had a pineapple agua fresca. It wasn't overly sweet. Once the waitress brought my food, she didn't come back. She needs some training. While there weren't many folks dining there, I saw several picking up food to go. I approached the bakery section to take dessert to go. I picked a salpor, which is a rice-based cookie. I went to the cash register to pay, and it took a while as there were people in line picking up food. So if you're in a rush, this place is not for you. My pupusa took a while to be served.
We come here every time we can. The papusas are delicious. The curtado tends spicier than usual, but compliments them well. The tamales need a paragraph to themselves. Probably a chapter. They are nothing like Mexican beyond the basic description of filling in masa. These, however, are a tender, angelic combination of filling and masa almost like polenta. The grilled elotè are firmer but the leaf steamed pork or chicken are so nummy, I can't wait to go back They also have a nice bakery. If I could get past the first things, I could say more, but honestly the rest is just so good, I've turned friends from way up in Spring into commuters for comida
Good food. Service was great. You definitely get what you pay for. I mean that in a good way. Delicious Salvadorian cuisine.
