“These pupusas were truly delicious! I had been craving them for years and haven’t found a good place since eating them in El Salvador. When I saw they cost 5.50 per pupusa I wondered if it was worth it but they were so good we are going back for sure! They are also a bit bigger than your average pupusa. We ate four pupusas and an order of plátano frito between three people and it filled us all up.Wheelchair accessibility: I went in my wheelchair and I could fit through the spaces in the parking lot and through the door to get it. I just parked my wheelchair at the end of a table to eat.“

“Denver's Westwood Business District (located on Morrison Road between Alameda and Mississippi Avenues) is quickly becoming a go-to destination for tasty Mexican food. But it's also home to a Central American sensation known as Sabor Salvadoreño.Yes, the cuisine of El Salvador has become increasingly popular in our fair city over the past few years, and SS will amply demonstrate why in a plethora of ways. To start, why not get a little Pre-Hispanic with a nice hot cup of Atol (drinkable porridge)? This tastebud-tingling option is available in both a sweet version (bursting with plump corn niblets) and Atol Shuco (using fermented corn flour and adding salt and the pumpkin seed-based condiment Alguashte for a more savory note). If available, you can side these with an order of tartly-sweet green Jocote fruit for a dazzling, yet still complementary, punch of flavor. And since I know someone's going to ask about pupusas during this review, let's just get that question out of the way now. Yes, the eatery does indeed offer these gooey little stuffed maize- or rice-flour pockets, in at least ten varieties by my count. So whether you're craving one filled with beans, or chicken, or shrimp, or Loroco flower, you can be certain of satiation here.OK people! Time to start thinking about main courses. How does a platter of Tortitas de Carne sound? Versions of this dish are popular in a number of Latin American nations, but I think the Salvadoran rendition (with its orbs of onion-y/pepper-y beef bound with eggs and simmered in a tomato sauce) is one of the tastiest. For a more... evocative option, Pacaya Rellena brings you a long, squiggly palm flower (honestly looking a bit like a small octopus) crammed full of melty cheese and deep-fried. You'll have as much fun gazing at it as you will eating it, I assure you. The broth aficionados among you might prefer Sopa de Gallina India - a substantial bowl of free-range chicken soup flavored with (for example) carrots, potatoes, and chayotes (or, as the latter is known throughout much of Central America, Güisquiles). But you can't leave without dessert, so don't forget to cap this marvelous meal off with one of my favorite finishers, Nuegados (cassava pillows drenched in rich, thick cane syrup). ¡Provecho!“

“Today was my 3rd time at the restaurant and I’ve had different types of meals each time I was there and I must say this place is beyond good. Idk how this place is not as popular as it should be. Very reasonable prices and great/fresh meals. From the appetizers, meals and desserts to the service. This place is AMAZING. I definitely recommend it and I will definitely be back soon. 5/5Wheelchair accessibility: Definitely enough parking spots for people with Wheelchairs and the entrance/inside is accessible to wheelchairs, also.“

“This place introduced me into pupusas, and now I’m addicted! Don’t ask me how to describe what a pupusa is, because the answer is difficult. Something between an empanada and a quesadilla. However you describe it, it’s heavenly and I’m happy I have one near by. It’s amazingly affordable for the quality of food, and you can eat very good for the price of a happy meal. My favorites are the Loroca and the Spinach. What is Loroca? Don’t ask just try it. Try the lovers plate if it’s your first time and share with someone to find which one is your favorite! Don’t expect you understand what the menu is! Ask questions! A quesadilla is not a Mexican quesadilla! I’m there almost weekly and you should too!“
