   We waited at the bar while our friends came since they were late for our ressies but we enjoyed cocktails that were tasty. I had the ahumarindo which is basically a tamarind margarita. It was so good everyone else ordered it as their second drink. Their pupusas are delicious, we also had the carne asada, crab, apple salad and guacamole. Everything tasty and well presented. We left stuffed and happy. For dessert we had the dessert cake that was like a cheese quesadilla, I didn't taste that cause I can't have gluten but it was gone quickly so clearly good. I did enjoy the sipping chocolate with the chain spices even though it would of been nice if it was a thicker consistency. But that's my personal preference. It was more like spiced cacao water, delicious flavor but I think of sipping chocolate being more creamy.

   The food and the spot far exceeded our expectations! Unassuming on the website, but inviting and very interesting compositions: the fried chicken wind was off the charts (app), as was the plum and pumpkin seed app...absolutely delicious! One miss were the popusas...too greasy for my taste. The apple and celery salad was a perfect finish. The hood here was a discovery for us...definately happening and safe! We went to a concert at the Paramount about a mile away and were really happy we came here. We will return!

   Such a beautiful space and delicious place. Favorites are the salvi side plate and the friend chicken. Have now been three times and can’t wait to go back!

   Great service and ambience! We were a little disappointed in the quantity of food and the wait time for the food to come out. We still felt hungry after spending hundreds of dollars and 3+ hours at the restaurant.
