" I had a blast eating here! It was a family outing, and everything was satisfactory! The pupusas were surprisingly generous in filling and the flavor was delightful. The only downside was the wait for a table, but it was worth every minute. I can't recommend La Union highly enough for anyone looking for comfort food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our visit was delightful, with a friendly staff that made us feel welcomed. The food itself was very satisfying and tasted fresh. I particularly enjoyed the tamales—they were soft and flavorful. However, I would have appreciated a bit more spice in the salsa provided. Still, overall, a great experience that I will gladly repeat! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our first visit to La Union was filled with great expectations, and it did not disappoint! The food was rich in flavor and true to its cultural roots.

" Just had dinner at La Union tonight, and it was excellent! I cannot recommend the shrimp tacos enough; they are a burst of flavor! The place was humming with energy, and the service was attentive. If you're not sure what to order, ask the staff for recommendations! They are very knowledgeable about the menu. Overall, fantastic experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've always loved eating here! The service is consistently outstanding, which makes each experience enjoyable. Recently, I ordered their famous pupusas, and they were exactly how I remember them from childhood—filled with cheese and beans, warm and comforting. The atmosphere is family-friendly, and we always feel welcome when we try. I cannot recommend La Union enough! " (*Curated Review*)
