“A quintessential “hole-in-the-wall” - El Callejon is a hidden gem. The food is AMAZING, all cooked to order, and almost everything on the menu is gluten free. Seating is limited, but on nice days we sit outside anyway. We have been here a handful of times and will be back many more!Dietary restrictions: Tons of gluten free options and easily modified for dairy-free!“
“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.“
“This place is amazing super friendly service, great prices and your food is made to order not left sitting around under a heat lamp so there might be a small waiting time but worth it. “pro tip” this is a cash only business, so hit the ATM before you go.“

“Good mexican food, and the Salvadorian is where they really shine. It is outstanding and definitely worth getting. Staff is very nice and welcoming. The physical building is a bit run down - but don't let that dissuade you. It is a great restaurant.“
“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!“

“Great little gem everyone should visit! Pupusas are very large, 2 is plenty. I got the pork/bean/cheese and carrot/cheese and love them both. Comes with really delicious spicy pickled cabbage. They are very filling, highly recommend a visit if you want some great food!“
