" It was my first visit to El Pulgarcito, and while the food had its moments, I found the overall experience a bit lacking. The server was friendly, yet they forgot my order twice, which was frustrating. I'm not sure if I will return, but I'm glad I tried the food at least. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Pulgarcito de America is truly worth the visit! The food is authentic, and I savored every bite of my carne asada with rice and beans. The portion sizes were generous, and the staff was friendly. The decor is not glamorous, but the food makes it worthwhile. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a disappointing experience at El Pulgarcito de America #2. I was expecting amazing pupusas based on the reviews, but the ones I received were not as fresh as I had hoped. The atmosphere felt warm and uninviting, and the service left much to be desired. I think I could have found better Salvadoran food elsewhere. " (*Curated Review*)

" The burritos at El Pulgarcito are truly something else! I felt I was indulging in authentic flavors every time I took a bite. The portions were extremely generous, and the mains came with plenty of sides. Although the atmosphere was loud, the quality of food made up for everything. I highly recommend coming here if you're near Abilene! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has some of the best Salvadoran food I've ever had! I ordered the carne asada burrito and it was packed with flavor and just the right amount of spice. The fresh tortillas were a highlight, and I can't recommend their salsa enough. The only downside was the seating; the tables were a bit sticky which made me uncomfortable. Despite this, I will certainly be back for the food! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a lover of Central American food, I have high standards, and El Pulgarcito delivered! I was impressed by the homemade tortillas served with my pupusas. The flavors were spot on, and the service was quick and friendly even on a busy Saturday night. I definitely would return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't express how good the mole enchiladas are at El Pulgarcito! The flavor profile was rich and made me want to try more items on the menu. My only wish is that they had more variety of drinks. The decor is a bit basic but worth battling through as the food is outstanding. " (*Curated Review*)
