" Graciela's is a cozy spot for Salvadoran food. My group tried a variety of dishes: pupusas, chicken soup, and tamales. I found the flavors quite authentic but felt like some dishes were a bit overpriced for what you get. The service was friendly enough, but the staff seemed a bit overwhelmed during peak hours. Overall, it was a good place to eat and I would recommend it for anyone wanting authentic cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an enjoyable dinner at Graciela's recently. The dining area felt warm and inviting, which set a nice tone. I ordered the chicken soup, and it was satisfying, with rich flavors and quality ingredients. However, I did feel that it could use more seasoning to elevate the taste further. The service was courteous. Overall, it’s a nice place to enjoy a meal, although there is some room for improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" A decent restaurant with authentic vibes. I felt welcomed by the staff, and the dishes had a homemade flair. I ordered the tamale and enjoyed it, but I hope the next time I can find something that really stands out. Everything tasted fine, but I believe it can offer something even better. I will definitely return to explore more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely fantastic dining experience! I took my family here hoping for some good food and we were blown away! The pupusas were incredibly authentic, stuffed generously and cooked to perfection. The kids loved them! The fresh horchata was a lovely complement and tasted homemade. The staff was exceptionally attentive without being intrusive, which made us feel right at home. I can't wait to bring my friends along for another round of this delightful food. It’s a must-visit in town! " (*Curated Review*)

" Graciela's is a treasure! The staff treats you like family and the food is incredible. I particularly enjoyed the chicken soup, which was packed with flavor. Eating here felt like being home.

" This place definitely lives up to its reputation! My dining experience started with a friendly welcome, and the staff made sure we were well taken care of. The food was fresh and full of flavor. I particularly enjoyed their chicken soup; it’s hearty and reminds me of my grandmother's cooking. However, I noticed the place was quite busy, and it did take a little time for our food to arrive. Overall, I would say the authenticity and flavors were worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family had a wonderful experience at Graciela's. We started with the homemade salsa and chips, which were delightful! I had the chili relleno, and it was seriously the best I have ever had. My partner loved the chicken fajitas. Everything was freshly prepared and so flavorful. The staff was friendly and accommodating, even though there was a language barrier. Overall, an excellent spot for authentic Salvadoran cuisine with a warm atmosphere. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)
