El Shaday is a restaurant that offers delicious Salvadoran cuisine, making it a popular spot for many. Their pupusas, specifically the revueltas and de loroco, have received high praise for their taste and quality. The atol de elote is also a favorite, considered one of the best. The tamales, both chicken and elote, are highly recommended, though some customers noted that the meat used is a drumstick, which makes the masa less prominent. Customers appreciate the greasiness and ample stuffing in their pupusas, which add to their flavor. The traditional breakfasts are said to make customers feel as if they are back in their home country. Visitors often find that the food is worth the wait, and the service is friendly and welcoming, with staff feeling like family. Due to the restaurant's popularity, it is advised to call ahead for orders. The horchata is praised as one of the best, and the overall experience keeps many coming back since childhood.
