Salvadoran Restaurants near Blauvelt, NY

“We stumbled upon this restaurant, driven by my husband's Honduran roots, and it exceeded our expectations. The waiter's exceptional politeness and impeccable tableside manners left a lasting impression, reminiscent of my father's high standards for service.The food was a true delight. My husband relished an order of baleadas, featuring homemade, thick, and soft flour tortillas that were simply perfect. We loved them so much that we took two extra tortillas back to our hotel. My choice of pupusas—queso, chicharron, and revuelta—was nothing short of amazing. Generously filled and substantial, they were a flavorful experience. Adding to the feast, the maduros appetizer with cream was a highlight, and I could easily devour a whole plate.In conclusion, this restaurant is a gem for those reconnecting with their roots or daring to explore something new. We're eager to return and savor the delightful flavors once more.“

“This place checks all the boxes for an authentic, family run, home-cooked experience. The menu is a mishmash of printed page and handwriting, the staff and clientele are nearly all Spanish speaking, it is spotless for dirt and there is Mexican football on the telly. The food is good. It's not fancy, and that should keep the snobs away, but it has the essential combination of scent, visuals, taste and the inner warmth a cook who loves a dish can make. You can do the El Typico half chicken, tacos which my sons say are rocking, steak platters in all their various combinations, and these wee Jammie cake style pupusa things. A novelty for me, very popular in Latin America apparently, they are enclosed buckwheat pancakes with a choice of fillings. Some of which you've never heard of, so try them. This is grass roots cooking, and I am a fan. In a low sodium World, the tropical propensity for salt is punkette, the spice combinations are unfamiliar but pleasing. Part of the meal I ate was a little dry, but that's what the excellent salsa is for, and everyone at the table is coming back. There is no booze, which is a good thing in working mens establishments playing football, and the while the drinks selection is authentic it is limited. Expect to pay fifteen bucks a head per adult, leaving plenty of opportunity for a jumbo tip. Don't go if you are stuck up.“

“Great place. Second time here, but this time, my food wasn't that good. The fish sopa didn't smell like fish it smelled like eggy. But strong eggy bone broth smell and taste. I'm a fish and sea food fanatic and had many fish soups non had taste or smelled like that. Pupusas were ok. Lady who attended us was so nice and attentive. Cameron cocktail was okay. Bland for me. She let me choose something else without charge or fuzz that I appreciate.“
