Very popular, this small restaurant serves dishes from El Salvador (the chef's country of origin) in a warm, family atmosphere. You can spot it by the queue outside at dinnertime. Of course, it serves the famous Salvadoran pupusas. These are thick cornmeal or rice cakes, the equivalent of Colombian or Venezuelan arepas. They are stuffed with cheese, chicharrón (pork), squash or refried beans, and escorted by a spicy coleslaw called curtido and a tomato sauce.

Only got their classic pupusa revueltas so can’t say anything about the other foods but the lively atmosphere, the bustling movement of regulars around lunch, and the Latin American aromas from the other tables tell me their other plates are probably just as good.
The pupusa was great. Creamy, meaty, and cheesy, and the salsa roja, or its Salvadoran equivalent, was a cold, tangy compliment to the hot meaty goodness.
Don’t know a lot about El Salvador other than what Worldle tells me, but Panchita’s tells me it’s a great place with wonderful food.
