" What a wonderful experience I had at Antojitos Cafe! The pupusas are exquisite, filled with flavors that remind me of home! I was equally impressed by their handmade tortillas. The only downside was the cash-only policy, which took me by surprise. Service can feel a bit lacking at times, but the ambiance is cozy. A must-try for anyone searching for fantastic Latin cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for authentic Mexican food, look no further than Antojitos Cafe! The flavors are incredibly rich and you'll definitely leave full, thanks to the generous portions. Their tacos were mouthwatering, and I can't recommend them enough! I did experience a bit of a wait during peak hours for service, but the food was well worth it. A must-visit for local food lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Stepping into Antojitos Cafe feels like being transported to a cozy home kitchen in Central America. The pupusas are undeniably authentic, offering a variety of fillings that burst with flavor. I’ve tried the cheese and loroco variety and can’t recommend it enough – it’s the best I’ve had outside of actual El Salvador! Not only is the food superb, but the prices are incredibly reasonable for the portion sizes. I did notice that they only accept cash, which caught me off guard initially, but there’s an ATM right on site. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, with friendly staff always ready to help. Can't wait to come back for more! I’ll definitely be returning soon to explore more of the menu and bring some friends along! " (*Curated Review*)

" Antojitos Cafe may not be the fanciest place around, but the food is what truly matters to me. I’ve been here a few times and I highly recommend trying their atol – it’s unlike anything else! The portions are generous, especially for the price, and the quality is evident. The staff tries their best, but I’ve noticed they sometimes get overwhelmed. The atmosphere is laid-back and feels like family. I keep coming back for its authenticity and good value! " (*Curated Review*)

" I heard about Antojitos Cafe through friends who rave about their food, and I finally decided to give it a shot. I ordered two beef tacos and they were simply delightful! The seasoning on the meat was just right. While I found the portion sizes to be quite generous, I expected a bit quicker service. That said, the atmosphere felt very welcoming overall. Definitely worth another visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Antojitos Cafe based on recommendations, but I was slightly disappointed. The pupusa was good, but I found the breakfast burrito lacking in flavor and portion size. I really liked the ambiance and friendly staff, but I think there’s room for improvement on the dishes. Might return again in hopes of better choices! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I visit Antojitos Cafe is another wonderful experience! Their pupusas are golden and crispy, while their tacos are packed with flavor – you can’t go wrong! It's a small space, so be prepared for a wait during busy hours, but the food is well worth it. The friendly staff also added to my positive experiences here. If you want authentic Latin food made with care, this is the place to go! " (*Curated Review*)
