Enjoyed a Delicious and most importantly…Authentic Central American Dinner in a family friendly atmosphere (uncommon on most Hispanic restaurants). Staff was kind, friendly and patient.

Great food, especially the tilapia combo dish. Alicia provided me with excellent customer service and allowed me to try out samples of their home-made tropical drinks; my favorite was Tamarindo!!!

Very friendly and quick service, pupusas were hot and delicious, and some of the biggest most generously filled pupusas I’ve ever had, plátanos and yuca were wonderful and the atmosphere was lovely. Love their cute light up sign with the ivy background. Highly recommend
