Gift Tips
- Try the enchiladas suizas if you want a dish that regular diners keep coming back for.
- Order the pupusas plate for a more unique Salvadoran option, especially if you enjoy authentic flavors.
- Ask about swapping sauces on the enchiladas if you prefer red sauce over the standard cream sauce.
- The salsa and fresh chips are a strong start to the meal and are worth pairing with a margarita.
- If you visit for lunch, the taco salad is a popular lighter choice, while enchiladas work well for dinner.

Very nice and clean. Plenty of tables and seating available. Super nice staff. Service was a bit slow. We asked for a little time to review the menu... read review
New menu new prices about $2 increase on everything. Mostly the same if not 100% the same menu. Looks like a few items were taken off. We enjoy coming here... read review
They are really friendly here and the food is delicious. They use a cream sauce for their standard enchiladas but easily swapped it out for the red sauce... read review
