What our guests are saying

This is Authentic Salvadoran food! The pupusas had good flavor; probably because all ingredients were fresh. The most satisfying and surprising was the sweet empanadas and sweet-sour horchata! It's made different then the Mexican version. No rice milk, just freshly ground ingredients.

Been coming here with my partner since 2016 and it’s still one of our go-to spots. The food never misses — breakfast plates are bomb, the pupusas are seriously top-tier, and the natural aguas always hit. He’s a fan of the sopa too. The owners are super sweet and always make you feel welcome. Definitely a spot we’ll keep coming back to.

I've eaten here three times, and all those times I've been shocked at how good the food was. I usually order the pupusas, and they're probably the best I've ever tried. It's an amazing restaurant with a nice homey environment. It's one of Stockton's hidden gems.
