Nuria's Restaurant

This inexpensive neighborhood joint offers a detailed taste of Salvadoran home cooking. While the pupusas come in both corn and rice options—with the corn version leaning more traditional—the kitchen also plates a hearty breakfast of refried beans, sweet plantains, avocado, and scrambled eggs served with white sauce and cheese. The menu extends well beyond the griddle to include yuca with chicharrón and sweet atol de elote. For drinks, look past the horchata for fresco de maracuyá or a blackberry shake made with mora.
