    Cash Only, small parking lot and WORTH IT.

    Ordered a bean and cheese pupusa and a caldo de res.

    They make pupusas with corn or rice flour. And their caldo was THE BEST I have ever had from a restaurant (I went with the abuelita and she loved it too, that's saying a lot!). The broth was savory and LOADED with meat and veggies. It was a very generous soup portion. The bowl was bigger than my head.

    Their menu offers lots of variety. I'm definitely planning to come back to taste the other dishes.

    The servers were really nice too!

    If I can give this place 0 stars I would , honestly this place has the SHITTIEST  service ever imaginable!
    I came here with a group of friends (5 people) and I get a reservation which take 30 mins because of how long everything takes here. I was the first one to sit down and look at the menu , had a pretty good idea of what I wanted ... the lady  (small order lady ) took everyone else's order and forgot about me , I asked her to come back and she said she will be right back !!!! Never came back at all ! By the time everyone got there food and was almost done , she wanted to take my order ! Took them over 45 mins to even come back to us, still no food , no drink ! They definitely won't be eating here because they don't care about theyre customers!!!

    Edit : I ended walking out because I didn't deliver a satisfactory service, they wanted me to pay for food I didn't receive

    Moral of the story, I didn't receive food in a timely matter , shitty host service and they wanted me to pay for something I didn't receive ! So why support a horrible place ‍‍‍

    My goodness, I haven't been here for a while and i regret not coming here more often.
    Their pupusas are EXCELLENT.
    And when I tell you they are affordable, I mean it.
    Their pupusa size are enormous and very taste. They have different flavors ranging from cheese with chorizo or a mixture of beans added to them to mix all of it together.
    All of them are very delicious individually.
    Bring your whole family here and enjoy a dinner that'll fill your taste bud and stomach without denting your wallet.

    My Mom recommended this spot since I moved close by. Parking was a complete mess. I would order in before stopping by so you're in and out without issue. Pupusas and curtido were fire. One of the best I've had here in Los Angeles. Cash only.

    Love their food, parking is hard, but the food is worth it. Aside from parking, it is CASH only. The service is fast, but don't wait for the server to come back and take your order... order everything the first time she comes. Because it gets busy and the kitchen will get busy too. The food is fresh and cooked everyday. It's not reheated. Go with time and enjoy your authentic Salvi food! I gave a four for parking and cash only...
