I’ve always seen this place lived literally like a few blocks from here and always wondered about how good this place is. First time coming here and have to say the chips and salsa fire. I order two pupusas one with cheese and beans and the other cheese and jalapeños fire. I order the regular size pupusas they are big. Recommend this place for a chill dinner.

Stumbled across this restaurant on our way to Anaheim, and loved the service and food. Thank you to Oscar for his hospitality and friendliness. He made our stop for lunch a great experience!

Made a phone order and was told 14$. When I got there they said they made a mistake so it was now 18$. Since I took only 15 cash I told them I can only pay with a card. After they took my payment I noticed it was now 19$. When I asked why, I was told they charged to pay with a card. Why wasn't I told BEFORE I paid! I was told the wrong total so I had no choice but to pay with a card and now I got charged more, that's ridiculous!

Love their pupusas! I love cheese and this place isn’t stingy when it comes to filling their pupusas with cheese. Their pork and cheese is my favorite. The pork is tender and tasteful, doesn’t taste like cardboard like some places. Made to order, so every time I pick up my pupusas they are freshly made and HOT! The best but most dangerous part is that their pupusas are inexpensive, so I always buy a lot. Love this place, will have to come and try other food items but their pupusas are top tier.

Another hole in the wall place where authentic Salvi food is served. Been there twice and it hasn’t disappointed. Tried pupusas, of course, and sopa de patas, which was very rich in flavor. Plenty of parking and decent opening hours.

Very unhappy with customer service..my office has been going to tequilences restaurant for over 10 years we called to order today not knowing it's a new restaurant lady on phone took our order when we picked up the food our order was wrong when calling back lady was very rude stating they no longer make what was ordered, that should have been told when placing order..they def lost our business!!

This place has changed its name to El Cafetalito. I asked if it has changed owners and they said yes, it is under new ownership. Service is the same and I ordered what I usually used to get, chile relleno. Most of it taste the same but I noticed the Chile didn't seem to be cooked as well. I may have to try the enchilada plate next time just to see if it's worth it to keep dining at this place.

Almost an hour for them to deliver two plates of food. In an almost empty restaurant. Not even that hot of food. Then they overcharged us.

Almost an hour for two plates of food in an almost empty place. Was never checked up on despite supposedly being table service. Despite almost being an hour food wasnt even that hot.
