" Had a lovely meal at La Ceiba! The pupusas were authentic and generously sized. The waiter was polite, although a bit overwhelmed when the restaurant filled up. I would rate the experience highly because the food was so delicious! Highly recommend for anyone after authentic Salvadoran cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" La Ceiba is a hidden gem for those who love Latin cuisine! Their food is fresh, authentic, and reasonably priced. My only complaint would be the cramped space during busy hours. However, the friendly service and delightful food more than makeup for it. Definitely a place I look forward to visiting again. " (*Curated Review*)

" The last visit to La Ceiba wasn’t what I had hoped for. The food was somewhat average for what I was expecting given the high praises I’d heard. Plus, I was taken aback by how long I had to wait for the food—over 30 minutes, which is quite long for pupusas! Their customer service seemed a bit stretched when the restaurant got busy. Overall, I think it has potential but needs to get its act together during peak times. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at La Ceiba was truly remarkable! Everything from the homemade pupusas to the refreshing horchata was on point. The dining atmosphere might not be luxurious, but it’s cozy and vibrant with activity. A must-visit for anyone wanting an authentic taste of Latin America! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m not new to La Ceiba and it continues to impress me with its authentic food and down-to-earth vibe. Their baleadas have such a great flavor, and I love how they treat their customers. Even though they’re cash-only, I think the value for food is excellent. I will continue to promote this place to my friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" This little gem is a delight! I visited La Ceiba based on a friend's recommendation, and wow, was I blown away! I ordered the pollo con tajadas and it was perfectly cooked with crispy skin—so delicious! The service was welcoming and attentive. While the decor is nothing fancy, the homely feel and the authentic flavors make it worthwhile. Definitely a place to satisfy your cravings for authentic Central American food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say, I was forever changed by my meal at La Ceiba. Authentic Latin American cuisine at its best! The flavors burst in my mouth—so unique and satisfying. I sampled many items and couldn’t pick a favorite. They do get busy, which is a testament to how loved this place is. A true culinary treasure! " (*Curated Review*)
