Welcome to little El Salvador. This place is hopping with festive music blasting from their jukebox and jarring beach scene murals are on every wall. Their menu includes the Salvadoran cheese stuffed specialty (Pupusas) for two bucks each and taco plates for under ten bucks. It’s not the cheapest place for a burrito (at least ten bucks) but if you like places with an authentic vibe and the adventure of new territories, this is your place.
