Great Salvadoran Food (The Best!)

by bayaeric

I came to Los Angeles to visit for a few days and discovered Atlacatl Salvadorean Restaurant. Got there on a Saturday around noon. There was a good crowd of people but we got sitted immediately. The server was great and attentive to our needs. We ordered Pupusas which were fantastic. (Very large too!). Also ordered Yuca Frita con Chicharron, it was the best Fried Yuca I've ever tasted, reason enough to go back next time I come to L.A. The drink "Horchata" was delicious, very much like the one they make in El Salvador.

I give this restaurant my thumbs-up.

• Pros: Great food, good service.
• Cons: NONE

Best Pupusas in LA.

by fdguru78

This place is awesome. The area is Kinda bad, but there is probably no other place i would rather eat at for Salvadorean Food. I'm a Latina Born and raised in LA and Next to eating in my Father's Country (El Salvador) There's no other place like this one. Ive had some really good food here in LA but really picky about Central american Food given my Family Background (i was spoiled with good home cooked meals by abuelita lol) So yeah, everything on the menu is delicious. I now and then crave pupusas and some frijoles negros con crema y queso (black beans with salvi cream and cheese) and this is where you can find it. just make sure you dont go on sundays after church time or lunch. Because it gets really crowded.

• Pros: Next to Eating in El salvador.. Next best thing....
• Cons: Like Some other really good restaurants.. it's in the Rampart area but ... its Worth it

TASTE GRANDMA' FOOD

by babywise

I have been going to Atlacatl Restaurant for over 10 years already and still taste like grandma's food.. this restaurant is perfect for any occasion and cheap for those who don't to spend too much money on food.. so if you want to impress your friends or girlfriend I will recomended to you because is autentic salvadorian food. Over all don't forget your cash, because they don't accept credict card.. my only concern is the restroom, it need to be improved other than that is a excellent restaurant serving all those celestial dishes tasting like grandma's food.... HAVE FUN AND ENJOY EATING THERE.

• Pros: thumbs up
• Cons: don't forget your cash.. because no credit card accepted
