"Very nice restaurant, we accidentally ordered from their other location for pick up but they were gracious enough to make the food immediately and not charge us for our mistake. Huge side of platanos that I did not expect and am happy to report, crema that came with them was fresh and amazing. Pupusas are a bit pricey but worth it 100% they are huge and 2 will fill you up. 10/10 this is our spot now"

"They just open this location and we have already been multiple times! We're long time fans of the Chantilly location as well. Food is delicious and service has been super fast and friendly each time. My family has tried the tacos, yuca con chicharron , pupusas, carne asada and the fajita mixto. So happy to have them in the neighborhood!"
