HOMEMADE TORTILLAS! My friend suggested that I try this new Centroamerican and Mexican Restaurant out. I haven't had Salvadorian food in a while, so we came for dinner on a Tuesday. The first thing that I noticed is that this place is extremely clean and tastefully decorated with a fishermen theme. The salsa music they were playing was at a pleasant volume and not too loud. The waitress told us that they just opened in December 2017. They have a good beer selection and 2 screens at the bar so you won't miss your favorite sports game. She seated us and brought out the salsa and chips quickly, which the salsa was tasty. Since it was a hot day, we ordered a shrimp cocktail to share. The shrimp were good sized and served in a tangy cocktail sauce with vegetables and crackers. For dinner, my friend ordered the mixed fajitas, which came out sizzling with rice, beans and homemade tortillas. It was so good she had nothing left over. I decided to try a Salvadorian soup called sopa de mondongo, which is a savory and mildly spiced coconut chowder with pig foot, tripe, yucca, chayote, cabbage and bell peppers. It came with an order of fried green banana chips and I ordered a side of Salvadorian cream to dip. It was delicious and so satisfying after my long work day! Honestly, the soup was so big that I probably should have only eaten half and saved the rest to go, but I couldn't stop myself and ate the whole thing. I'll start my diet tomorrow. LOL! I liked their food and service so much that I also ordered a Centroamerican breakfast plate to go for tomorrow. Yes, they serve breakfast ALL DAY!!!
We will definitely be back again to try the sopa de caracol, which is that same coconut chowder base soup, but with sea snails. It's a little more expensive, but I can splurge once. Next time, I'll also check out their homemade pupusas (they have a decent variety on the menu).
