Wow! This a 4.5 star place. Located far down Central Ave in an unassuming shopping center, El Pulgarcito is a savory and affordable sit down Salvadorian restaurant whipping up an extensive selection of treats like papusas, tamales, fried plantains and more.
I only had the opportunity to get the plantains (delicious), pork and cheese papusas (delicious times 2), and sampled some fried corn tamales (fried deliciousness). I wanted to try every single heaping dish that passed by to some of the other tables. The menu is pretty extensive - all kinds of meat and seafood options in huge value-sized proportions.
Interior is dinerish. There is a lot of blue and cafeteria like tables and nothing extraordinary - but we don't need distractions from the wonderful food anyway. Service was very quick and friendly. The place is populated with staff and clientele that are native Spanish speakers, but you won't have much difficulty ordering - menu is in English with pictures and everything I saw looked good!
