Customer service was horrible. There were only 3 tables with customers. I sat down and no one came to me. I got up and asked the if I need to order at counter they handed me a menu and said they will take my order. I waited and waited..the waitress and waiter were really busy in gossip. I got up and interrupted their conversation and told them what I wanted. Food is good. But customer service is poor. 2 other customers had to get up to go to the counter to request items.

I came in at 8:30pm and they had all the tables put away. They claimed they wanted to close exactly at 10pm. They said they didn’t want to dirty any tables. Weird you have an hour and a half left open for business. The final thing they made me never return here and write the review was the fact that we asked for coffee and they said they had no coffee. When the next customer comes in they asked for coffee and the waiter said yes. If you don’t want to be rushed or lied to “late” night, avoid this place.

I dont understand why they changed it. They should come to our table and tale orders. Are they really that lazy?

The food here is really great and I love the pupusas though they do take quite some time to make. They come out perfect and flavorful. I say that as a person who is used to having pupusas homemade from a native Salvadoran. I have been here many times, never encountered rudeness from any of the wait staff, and have only found them to be helpful and kind. Since they changed their menu earlier this year, I have yet to order and try the crepes but plan to do so soon because I am very curious to know what crepes made in an El Salvadoran restaurant taste like. My only slight criticism about the place is that there aren't more staff that speak English, which isn't such a problem for me because I can get by speaking my very broken Spanish. However when my Irish-American husband stops by to order, things get misconstrued and my take out order has been funky.

The worse place ever.. pupusas are very expensive and their not that good. The red salsa is like water... .. and a very rude customer service!! I being there once and wouldn't go back to spend my money on this place anymore.. El atole de elote completely nasty😝😝
