El Carbonero

I’ve highly recommend the breakfast tipicos. Very reasonable price for all you get. The servings are a bit small especially los frijolitos but the rest of the food majes up for it. Eggs, chorizo, crema, tamal de pollo y home made tortillas. I really enjoyed and will come back anytime to have it again. I give the service was excellent y the waitress was very attentive.

Parking fucken sucks but their food is out of this world amazing but then again I only go for the pupusas on Tuesday and Thursday lol they are 1 $

I went there yesterday 5÷29÷15. I can say they really overprice thier food. Such small servings, I know they dont serve a lot but this was way less than expected. The food is not bad but not good. It is just like any other restaurant the difference is that here it is way more expensive for less food.

service is horrible here the main lady is very rude seems as she is a racist i notice she has a different tone with anyone who is not salvadorian it’s ridiculous, today was the last time i purchased anything from this place i ordered some pupusas and when i finally got my order to go there was a long thick piece of hair & some kind of white thread in my pupusas!!! How disgusting!!! i don’t recommend this place at all !!! dont waste your time or money.

My favorite salvadorean restaurant, they have everything u miss from el salvi, their pupusas are the only ones I like to eat, I’ve been in so many salvi restaurants and so far this one is the best, they give a lot of food for each plate, and the prices are very reasonables… small place but really worth it :)

I give five starts guys cuz you guys cook really good i love las pupusas y el specials de 99 las pupusas revueltas

Really bad service, I place and order on thanksgiving day! Pay in advance and when I get there to pick up the order the order wasn’t ready, I wait for almost and hour and when I made a complain the answer was: «If you like it fine. If not you can call and made a complain»” I call the phone number that they have on the wall and after a month I’m still waiting … I don’t recommend this restaurant and the food is Not that good… pupusas are not good!

Stopped in this place for the first time after passing it a million times on my way to Target. I’m on a lifelong quest for great pupusas. Like most of the reviews, I’d say this place is ok/​decent. Pupusas are better than average but not the best I’ve ever had. It’s cheap and delivered to you hot and promptly. Giving it a 4 cuz the service is good and this is a 3.5 place.

its a hit and miss with the food, but the service is nice.

Been going to this place since i was a kid… THIS PLACE IS POPPIN… best Pupusas! plus they are a dollar on Tuesdays and Thursdays! POPPIN POPPIN!!!

I have been trying to find great papusas in LA. The best I’ve ever had were in the Mission of San Francisco.
The place looks a little small and sketchy but I didn’t mind. The girl at the counter spoke English which is great. You never know. The wall behind her just had pictures of food with a number. The take out menu had the written info. I ordered one of each. Papusas were all bland. Also the traditional red sauce and cole slaw they serve was meh as well. The people are really nice but it was not worth the 1000s of calories. lol. I also love horchata but theirs it terrible. It takes like cold soy, coffee, and chai mixed together.
I won’t go back but their other stuff might be good. I wouldn’t write it off all together but not worth it for me.

The best Papusas!!!

The food didn’t improve the quality of life or anything, but it was alright when I was eating. Except I was VERY glad to have been given a mint after eating.
The place is small and conversations echo like crazy. Four people can sound like a stadium. If I were to go back I would stick with the mints and Horchata.

i would like to rate this restaurant as 2 ½ stars…
the food is okay but definitely had better. i had the mixed pupusas and they were smaller than what i’m used to and way more expensive (2.75 a piece). they do however offer $.99 mixed pupusas on tuesday and weds.
if you really want great pupusas, try atlacatl in los angeles. a bit of a drive from the valley but very worth it! dang, i need to start listening to my own advice and go there instead of trying to find something in the valley.

This place isn’t THAT bad. Its decent. Well, I only go for the pupusas, yuca frita, and empanadas de leche and so far, it’s been pretty good.

sometimes a hole in the wall place can be a real diamond in the rough. this place is not one of them.
ordered caldo de res. about 30 minutes later, out came the soup. tasted like the broth of cup-​o noodles with gristle that they were calling beef. i couldn’t even chew it! and it was so much money for such bad quality.
so…skip it!

Went to this whole in the wall. The food is decent; however, the prices are too expensive. Had two of their pupusas (cheese & mixed) they were great; however for $ 1.75 I’ve had bigger pupusas a bit better than theirs. Ordered a shrimp coctail. Not the best! It lacked on flavor. Tried their pork rinds and yuca (which was very dry). The place is spacious and has lots of seating. Service is good. Be prepared to pay $ 1 for a 12 oz can of soda. No refills!
