El Savor Salvadoreno

As one whose second country is El Salvador, I was delighted to find this restaurant, which serves wonderful pupusas in six flavours. I happily ordered a bunch to take home with me and they were delicious (so was the curtido with a little bit of zip to it). While I waited for them to be prepared, I ate a serving of carne asada, which was moist and nicely seasoned. It was accompanied with rice, beans, salad and tortilla and made me imagine I was back in San Salvador at my comedor típico. Sadly, I am losing my home base in the next town over. I wish I had discovered this restaurant sooner, but for the time being, I will be back and will send friends here as well.

If you’re looking for a place to go for seriously authentic Salvadorian (and Central American) food, this is your place.
I spent a week in El Salvador a few months ago and fell in love with papusas. Round, thin, corn flour tortillas stuffed with chicken or beans that are sealed and grilled. Why does every culture offer flour-​based dough with delicious fillings? Because it’s a great idea. They deliver on real, honest papusas here. At $ 2 each, three is enough for a small meal. Add on plantains and you’ll be more than satisfied.
The other meals looked just as good. Have honest expectations; cilantro rice and fancy-​ass tacos don’t exist in Central America. You get the basics. They have everything you’d expect on a typical menu.
The menu is in Spanish first with an English translation. You’re best bet is to speak Spanish (the server didn’t speak English when I was there). You could get by with pointing and smiling. Don’t get scared off by this. This hurdle is worth it for authentic food. Be a little uncomfortable and enjoy the experience.

My wife and I went here last Monday for lunch. It helps if you speak a little Spanish. The food is unreal. I can’t wait to go back. Highly recommend it.

Amazing restaurant! Authentic, delicious, cozy and warm. Try the pupusas, and get an horchata to drink. A little background for comparison:
I’m from a Salvadorian family — I have 6 aunts and uncles, about 30 cousins, and we’ve been to every Salvadorian restaurant we can find in the state. I’ve been to and lived in El Salvador, and had home cooked and professionally cooked meals there.
This is one of the best.
The pupusas were delicious; they tasted like healthier versions of the ones you get on the street in El Salvador. I tried them with three different fillings, and they were all fantastic. The curtido was the best I’ve ever had, and had diced jalapeños to give it some extra flavor.
The carne asada was exactly what I was expecting and was incredibly flavorful. It came traditionally with beans, rice, and a salad.
The refried beans deserve a round of applause, they tasted just like home.
The yuca con chicharrón was one of the best appetizers, and was fun to eat!
They had multiple types of horchata — rice or morro, and I tried both, you should too. It’s sweet without being too sweet, and complements any and every dish.
To top it all off, we ordered quesadilla for desert. If you’re not familiar with Salvadorian quesadilla, it’s a sweet bread served with sesame seeds — nothing like Mexican ones.
Everything was great! Service was fast, and we were treated like family.
One thing I do want to mention — we were a party of 40. And still, the food came out flawlessly, quickly, and didn’t sacrifice flavor or completeness.
10/​10, will go back. Thanks, Maribel!

This Salvadorean restaurant is very good. The food is authentic, the place is clean, service is friendly and the prices very reasonable.
While the place is not flashy– give it a try as you will not be disappointed.
We found it by chance on one of our trips by Connecticut. Now we make a stop when ever we drive thru Norwalk CT.
As for what is good — breakfast: huevos con chorizo, great coffee. Main dishes: pupusas and soups.
