    Amazing tacos, and the empanadas might make you cry. Had a real craving for some good Mexican food and this little spot really hit the spot. We got beef tacos and beef empanadas, and I spotted arroz con leche after putting in our order and the nice ladies gave it to us for free I haven’t had arroz con leche since my trip to Mexico, and this was such a wonderful surprise. We are so pleased with the food at this spot and highly recommend it!!!

    For what is available, it's alright. There are a few places that make pupusas now but everybody wants to charge so much for them. The service is terrible, if that's what you're looking for, go somewhere else. The to-go packing needs some work. At other places they will separate the pupusas by the type, here, they all go in one STYROFOAM container. They still use it. If you're ordering ahead it's no less than 30 minutes. They have said 40 and it took more like an hour. Being originally from the Boston area, I think I'll just take the drive to Chelsea or East Boston for quality of food, value, service and better atmosphere

    Good Salvadoran food, the pupusas are very good and the service is very efficient, typical Salvadoran restaurant, small but with very friendly service, parking is the only drawback, it does not have

    It's interesting to me that a Salvadorian restaurant has the best tacos in the entire city of Worcester. And they're reasonably priced too. All cooked fresh to order, flavorful meat and warm tortillas every time. The pupusas are fantastic as well and the staff is friendly

    This is a takeout order. All food is eaten fresh in the vehicle. I ordered a chicken burrito and a pork pupusa. The pupusa was tasty and was enjoyable. The burrito was very filling but didn't have much in the way of flavor. The slaw that came with the food was quite good. On a scale from 0-10 I would rate this 6.6.
