“ Great food and amazing service. The dine-in area was clean and had a respectable amount of space between them to allow the 6 foot space. Masks were required which was a good thing. Will definitely go back for more. ”
“ This was my first time trying this restaurant. The food was good. The tamale I had was very different, with chickpeas and potatoes… very good, just different. I had a pupusa of chicken and cheese, I squeezed a lot of lime and cabbage as well as salsa on it. It was pretty good. The tortillas are fresh, warm and homemade. I definitely recommend ”
