El Salvador Restaurant in Provo

This place is always packed on the weekends! The food is delicious, the atmosphere is authentic, and the people are really genuine. I would highly recommend it!

The best pupusas! I love the bean and cheese ones. Everything was delicious too!

Okay okay okay where do I start? This place is definitely your bang for your buck! The food is cheap but authentic and absolutely delicious! I went there today and spent 20$ to feed 3 people and also that included the tip. The staff are great and it's not a fancy restaurant or anything but i mean if you want authenticity it's always in the smaller places. Loved it and I am probably going to be a regular for sure.

I was so impressed with the seafood soup because of the impressive amount of seafood in it! So tasty! Service was a bit slow, but the food was great.

When you go to this restaurant you have to remember that it's a classic hole in the wall which means it's low cost but you get the service and environment that you pay for. The staff was nice but the food took a while to come out and there really wasn't very much. This is a place you go to in order to try something different or you go because you grew up eating this food.

Definitely this is one of the only authentic places in highly elaborated food with an exquisite flavor of the country combined all the dishes have the seasoning that distinguishes them. The service is the best since you arrive at the place the treatment is very pleasant, always sedistingue in its friendly service welcoming all those who come for the first time as well as those who are already constant customers, the restaurant has a very nice decoration typical of its culture to take us and move us to the countries and their gastronomic traditions, the menues very varied for the most succulent dish as well as for the simplest, a lot of variety the buffet in the time of the esmagnífico lunch very well served and you can eat until you no longer feel like it, esataras full full. I give him Five stars and I add some photos so you can see how beautiful it is.

A really great hole in the wall. Staff might be a bit hard to communicate if you don't know Spanish well, but they try their best to be as helpful as possible. Food is authentic, and always fantastic.

Let me just start by saying that any self-respecting Salvadorean can tell when pupusas are made well by not even looking it. I am 100% Salvadorean, and I've eaten pupusas my entire life. I have never once eaten a pipusa so disappointing in my life. There was 0% filling in the pupusas. I ordered revueltas and pupusas revueltas are supposed to have cheese, meat, and beans that should be VISIBLE and you can TASTE. Absolutely no filling. I dont know if theyre cutting costs because of covid-19, or what. The tomato based sauce that you eat with the pupusas was LITERAL WATER. It had the consistency of soup. I am attaching videos and photos for proof. The curtido - no flavor whatsoever. Real curtido has a vinegar-y taste, their curtido tastes like water. No flavor, whatsoever. I can't comment on their other food because I didnt try it but oh my god, as a Salvadorean I have never tried a Salvadorean place as worst as this.

This is a jewel of Provo. They deserve every positive review because of their delicious and authentic food that is very reasonably priced. The staff is pretty awesome, and they work pretty fast. The food comes hot and ready, and does not disappoint. If authentic food is what you’re after, you have to come here. Is you want specifics, the Papusas are amazing and verified by someone who has lived in South America for years to be genuine.

If you have been downtown Provo on a Sunday, you'll quickly realise it's a ghost town - nobody is around.However, one restaurant is... El Salvador and the food is GREAT. The family owned business provided excellent food and friendly service.
