Salvadoran restaurant · Pico-Union

"Pupusa power couple Stephanie Figueroa and Juan Saravia remix Salvadoran flavor with LA style, delivering fun mashups like the carne guisada burger — slow-cooked beef layered with curtido and greens on a brioche bun. On the sweets side of the menu is a Salvi-inspired dessert, carney plátanos — carnival-style battered and deep-fried plantains lightly dusted with powdered sugar, drizzled with caramel, and served with a large scoop of vanilla ice cream. This Downtown restaurant stands at the forefront of Salvadoran culinary innovation." - Eric Valle
