Las Americas Restaurant

Fun atmosphere with below average food & above average prices.
We went on Sat night around 6pm & they had good Latin music playing, several servers working & about 6 tables of customers most of which were drinking & only 1 other table was consuming food. That should’ve been a hint, but we didn’t get it.
I ordered a disappointing seafood soup priced at $ 16. The soup arrived & it looked NOTHING like the pic on their menu or other seafood soups I have had at other restaurants. It had 1 small shrimp, 1 clam, 3 muscles & a whole lot of pieces of tilapia & a bit of some frozen bagged seafood mix. I could’ve had a way better dish at Coastsl Flats for that price.
My partner had Mondongo soup priced at $ 15 & he was so disappointed that he didn’t even finish it. It was a lot broth with very little veggies & even less meat.
The food is not worth the price. It may be a cool spot to drink & chill/​dance & maybe eat nachos if they’re my overpriced.

I just ate here with my husband, and it was an interesting experience, but they don’t deserve the crappy reviews they have.
Here’s the thing — it’s a hole-​in-​the-​wall Salvadorian place — and nobody speaks english. The music is campy karaōke-​style latin music, and the ESPN desportes is on the tv’s (predictably soccer when we were there).
It isn’t fancy — but the servers are very friendly and attentive, and the food was GOOD. The salsa with the chips was unique and tasty, and the carne asada was delicious — I scarfed it down. The wine — not so great, but for $ 5 I didn’t care.
They DID accept my
certificate — I showed it on my phone (in the app), they took my phone back to the register and figured it out.
A few things helped: first, my husband is South American, so he could translate a bit. Second, I am used to pointing and gesturing when I’m around people that only speak Spanish, because I don’t speak any, and several of my husband’s relatives don’t know English.
Bottom line: it worked, we enjoyed our food, and I hope the place gets some business and can make some upgrades to the ambiance.

ok service. I would recommend trying their pupusas as they looked better than my chicken philly (which was the weirdest looking cut chicken). However, the place looks run down; kareoke in the middle of the day while having a family dinner for mother’s day was just UGH. The soup was not good. The drinks were expensive.

Burrito cane with grilled chicken as I like but the side if Brava and salad were not special small side with little to look at. No sour cream or gauc on the side our salsa. Also the salad was wet half salsa half lettuce should have been separate. The only reason I have it a chance is because it wad next to where I was at phở 75 and I got my hours up on a home in the wall place that I wad going would have some really good authentic good.

Caution — They do not honor
coupons.
Décor is old and run down.
Food is just Meh. Would have been better off going to Fast Food.
Would not recommend

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^doesn’t know what he talking about…
Great service, Great food, Great karaōke music at night and mix drinks are great. Only thing some serving staff understand a little English, but the menu is in English detail.
