Reviews Las Americas Taqueria And Pupuseria

This is the kinda place you don’t wanna write a review for so that it stays under the radar, but I feel too much guilt not spreading the good word, and the word is GOOD. I have eaten here countless times, it is my all time favourite restaurant I’ve ever been to. If I could eat here, and only here, until I died, it would be pure heaven. Best tacos you can get outside of that one taco truck you know of in Mexico, or just the best tacos you’ll ever have. All while being unbelievably cheap. Their pupusas give me strength to go on, their tostada de ceviche gives me faith, and their tacos continually fill my spirit. Additionally, every staff member they’ve ever had has been so kind, helpful, and joyous. I have so many priceless memories with my best friends and family here, I genuinely hope it’s the last meal I ever have. Please, do yourself a favour and go as many times as possible before your body can carry you no further, because a stomach full of Las Americas will carry over into the great beyond🙏

This isn’t your “standard” Mexican Restaurant, much closer to a Central American Restaurant. Was very interesting to see some of the offerings mirroring Filipino foods (Adobo and Bistik) that I love. The attached grocery carries a great selection of Spanish and Central American foods. First off…had to try the taco’s. Love how they use the small, doubled-up soft corn tortillas fresh off the grill. Decided to sample Carnitas, Pollo, and the Al Pastor which was chopped pork with the Adobo sauce…all with some onion and Cilantro garnish. The Pollo was a bit dry so there wasn’t much flavor there…disappointing. The Carnitas was really good, moist and flavorful. The Al Pastor was excellent with the adobo flavoring…the favorite of the three. Next was a mixed Pupusas with beans, pork, and cheese. This Pupusas was one of the best I have ever had…what really put it over the top was the vinegar cold slaw and some sauce. The Pescado Frito was a seasoned whole fish fried with rice, some “salad”, and tortillas. The fish alone was delicious and could be a meal all in itself. Placing some chunks of the fish on a tortilla with the “salad” provided was boring. HOWEVER…highly recommend getting a side of the vinegar cold slaw and putting the slaw and fish on a tortilla with a little sauce…now that was an exceptional combination! The vinegar slaw really complimented the fish…basically had a delicious fish taco! Bottom line…all of the plates were pretty much “licked clean” and we were well on our way to a lunch coma…LOL Service was great and you can’t beat the price for such great food. There are a number of other dishes I still need to try there!

Pupusas are food from El Salvador. Is an Acquired taste. Have tried one today 🤔 Agua de Tamarindo.

My favorite place to get a quesadilla in the area. The chicken they use is cooked to literal perfection.

Fast, friendly service. It helps if you speak a little Spanish. If not no worries, Google can translate for you. The food is fresh, filling and so tasty you will lick your plate. This is authentic AF. I can't believe it took me so long to find this place. I will definitely be back.

I’ve frequented this restaurant for many years and have always enjoyed their pupusas. They recently changed them up and they were not the same and not as good as before. There was more filling before and the cheese was delicious and stretchy similar to mozzarella in the past. I’m hoping this was an oversight and they go back to their original recipe.

We love this place. Food is always fresh and reasonably priced for the portions. We love the market atmosphere. We love all of the tacos- great place for a cheap lunch or dinner with authentic tacos! The quesadillas are a hit with the kids!
