Good food, cash only, private ATM inside. Pupsas shrimp, loroco, revuelta (cheese, beans, pork) are great, tamale is like custard (v.gd. Salvadoran style). Also cloriso, salpicon, pastels, tostada de ceviche comarones....
If you want authentic Salvadorian food I highly recommend El Carbonero. The pork tamales and chorizo pupusa were on point and very well flavored. Don't let the small restaurant vibe fool you.
Best pupusa ever! Shrimp cocktail was muy excellente as well!
