User Reviews

Decent restaurant to eat. I wish food would have been more flavorful. I didn’t like that food came at two different times.

Overall, I was pleased with this place. Pupusas were very good. We tried almost one of each. The cheese is so flavorful. Sorry, forgot to take picture of the pupusas. Pan con pollo- was ok. The first one we got had the chicken cold, but then they brought a warm one. I personally don’t like to have the chicken in one piece. I prefer it shredded. That’s just a matter of preference I guess.

The pupusas were ok. I had all vegetarian ones. The taste was bland. I also got a couple of different deserts. I wasn’t impressed. But I enjoyed watching them making pupusas.

Great place for family..pupusas are the best I ever have they have around 15 kinds. The service is great sopa de res is very good, well balance, lots of vegetables, I counted 8 vegetables. It's does pack a punch for lunch. They put enough cow beef in the soup to get the umani taste . My son try the Tamarindo it was really good it taste fresh. Will definitely go back to try other offerings...

Extremely disappointed w this place. First of all, my order came half missing. Second, taste pretty plain. Third, look at the picture yourself. Bought some tamales, and it is basically made of corn and bones.. no meat at all. Ridiculous.

Delicious food, family friendly and good service.

Best in the DMV. The pupusas are fresh, the chicharrones are so tender that you don't need to cut with the knife, and the plátanos are fresh with just the right crispy around the edge. The pictures cannot do El Comalito justice. The prices are fair which make it worth the trip.

The restaurant was very busy on a Friday night around 8:00 p.m. The waiter was patient while we asked questions about various foods native to El Salvador. We ordered pasteles de carne y muchos pupusas. We also had horchata and tamarindo drinks. The food was freshly made so there was a bit of a wait for the pupusas. My boyfriend who likes horchata said it had a uniquely nutty taste, which he enjoyed. The tamarindo was a good mix of sour and sweet. I would recommend this place because the pupusas are inexpensive and my salvadoreño coworker said there were authentic!
