Tasty Pupusas and very good Horchata. The tamales were okay. Though they only had chicken and no pork. Also no olives in their tamales. They were good overall.
Fantastic food, good service. Pupusa's best I have found in the valley. Small place with great food. Even the beans and rice were over the top! To
Food was delicious and fresh. Had a cheese pupusa with loroco and ground pork (chicharon) and a chicken tamale wrapped in a banana leaf which brings a totally different flavor profile than corn husk wrapped tamales. Filling is chicken, potatoes, green chile slices and an occasional green olive. In Oaxaca and Central America this is how they roll. In Nicaragua they call them Nacatamales and they are a meal by themselves because they are mega huge! The service was great and friendly. Ambiance was very simple and decorated with a Salvadoran flair. What surprised me the most were the menu prices . The pupusas were the best deal for $4 and $3.50 for tamales . Felt prices were a bit elevated for the surroundings which I would call a "rough patch of mesa" where the motel across the street is a hub a property crimes and your basic den of inequity. Park your car/truck where you can see it. Remove all valuables. Other than that PSA the place is great and got me to El Salvador without a passport! Enjoy! but keep your head on a swivel my dizzle whizzle!
Not being from Central America I can't vouch for authenticity but this is the best pupusa I have ever eaten and the best fried plantains..sweet unquious delicious!!! The cook greets you, talks about his food and you gotta love cook who is authentic and excited about his plates, and they're filled with love! They have a delicious fruit drink which is a must as well . The platesco e out hot and wondrous!! And there are sauces to add for heat..there's a slaw that goes on top and it is crisp fresh sweet and vinegary and perfect. I re omens this little spot because the food is just damned good. And I'll bet it is as authentic as can be
I recently visited this restaurant since I was craving pupusas and pastelitos. The pupusas were a good size and the pastelitos had a delightful crisp. Although everything was pricey, the food was good and my cravings were satisfied.
Had my second visit at this spot and I decided to indulge in their pastelitos de pollo and an assortment of pupusas--a decision I didn't regret. The pastelitos were a delightful start, with a crispy exterior giving way to a succulent chicken filling that was both comforting and satisfying. But the real stars of the show were the pupusas. Each were stuffed with a variety of fillings, from the rich and savory chicharron to the unique and flavorful loroco. The chicharron pupusa, in particular, was my favorite, offering a perfect balance of textures and tastes that had me savoring every bite. While the prices were a tad on the higher side, the quality and taste made it worth it.
It's been a while since I had pupusas, and a few nights ago, I decided to try this place that I have bookmarked. I came in here close to 8 pm on a weeknight, and there was still a steady stream of customers. Everyone was picking up takeout. Initially, I thought I would dine in, but after seeing everyone pick up their food, I decided to order my items to-go. It's kind of a hole in the wall, so makes sense. I ordered a few pupusas stuffed with loroco (edible green flower of Central America), one tamale elote, and one tamale con pollo. One of my favorite side item is curtido, which is pickled slaw and this place makes great curtido! The pupusas were delicious, and they hit the spot. Both elotes were great! The tamale elote was a bit sweeter and very flavorful. I'll definitely be back back for more pupusas and tamales, love the authentic and tasty food here!
Was really craving for pupusas and empanadas while staying over at my best friend who lives here. She recommended them and actually they turned out good! Def I am trying the rest of the other plates when I come back.
I just learned about pupusas and wanted to try them. Found Glady's and decided "this is where it's going down." I'm glad I did!!! It's the perfect kinda small shop place I love to eat at! I ordered 3: bean and cheese, the mixed bean, cheese and pork and the cheese and pork. My favorite of the bunch was the mixed!! The owner was super nice and I just loved the place. I'll be back!
I was in the mood for some good soul food. This hit the spot! Got me some amazing tamales, a variety of pupusas, yuca con chicharron, and pastel. I can't even begin with my favorite item! Everything was amazing, the food and the service too! Staff was super friendly and attentive. We got a guanabana drink and an horchata. Both are very good, but I do have to say that for those who are used to the Mexican horchata, it is not the same thing, but both are great. Mexican one is made from rice, and I believe this one is seeds from the morro tree. Will most definitely come back to try that tilapia. Love me food!
