The absolutely best review I could have given this place: an empty plate! Food was that good.
Excellent service. The menu is digital, which was off-putting, but overall a good experience. Patio seating was nice, with sun-umbrellas and WiFi. Delicious breakfast with plantains, and they have a wide beverage selection including house made horchata.
True hole in the wall. I can see why Guy F enjoyed this place. Ordered the empanana player and was not disappointed. My wife and two kids enjoyed the visit as well. The food came out hot and fresh even though it was near closing time. The setting inside was quaint and was great for my family. Easy to locate and was conveniently located next the marketplace. The service was also top notch. The staff were very friendly and clearly shows they enjoy what they do. My only opportunity is the need for a better selection of drinks, specifically tea. But that does not affect my 5 star rating!!!!
Their prices are higher now; whose aren’t? But, this place is still a solid deal on the Hill: one of the last of the affordable and satiating places to eat still left on the hill. Before the Hill gets even more bougie than it is now, make time to try this place, now, to get a taste of a blue collar meal that will fill you up for the rest of the day! Try the Salvadoran breakfast, or a side of the delicious sweet sautéed plantains, depicted in my photo, or the Mexican breakfast, a breakfast burrito with egg and crumbled chorizo, a seasoned sausage. As of April, 2022, this wonderful hidden treasure IS OPEN for dining inside, or on their patio seating out front, across from Eastern Market.
The food is so good. Authentic. It has all sorts of great foods to chose from and everything is done right. That's why they were on the food channel. This is a small spot but theres always room for dessert. The deserts are awesome too. The fresh made juice drinks are to die for and the service can be compared to being treated like family. This place is love.
I truly enjoy this place. I come here often to get the same dish. I grab their 3 carne asada tacos. It’s one of my favorite spots to pick up tacos. Very authentic. I have had their paposas (not sure if I spelled it correctly) and they are great also.
The service is kind and friendly. It seems like a family own business.
We have been searching for a good pupusa place in the district and THIS. IS. IT. They are fresh and flavorful and I wish I had room to eat more because they are 👌 $3 pupusas are a win. My only complaint is how early they close :( harder to come often.
We were starving when we stumbled into this little joint! They had vegetarian and dairy intolerant friendly options. The prices are super low for the area and the food was so darn good!!! I d highly recommend Mexican food deliciousness to any of my friends!!!
Absolutely yes! As someone who's allergic to cayenne and anything with heat, this place was phenomenal! I ordered twice! Delicious and plentiful!
Small non descript place. Good was great and the smells made your appetite grow while waiting. The had digital menus on screens that flipped too quickly so reviewing what you want beforehand might be a good idea. I ordered and then realized there was another offering on a screen I didn't catch that I wanted to try. The food was so good that we will be back the next time we are in the area and I'll try something else.
