" I recently tried El Guanaco for lunch, and I couldn’t have been happier with my choice. The empanadas were remarkable, with a tender dough and savory filling. Polished off the meal with their fresh strawberry milkshake, which was divine! Go check this place out if you are nearby! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting El Guanaco is a lovely experience every time. I always order their tamales - they're so rich and delicious. Not to forget, their homemade salsa compliments everything perfectly. Some areas could use a little tidying, but don’t let that stop you from enjoying incredible food! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Guanaco is a must-visit for those seeking genuine Salvadorian dishes. The authentic flavors really take you back! I indulged in their chicken tacos, and they had the right amount of spice. My only qualm was the tight seating, but that’s a minor detail when the food is this good! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was fortunate enough to try this restaurant while in town. It captures the essence of Salvadorian food excellently. The ingredients taste fresh, and the flavors are authentic. I tried their combination platter and was not disappointed. A hidden gem in the city for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered a few different dishes to try, including tacos and empanadas. Everything was quite good, but the empanadas were the star—crispy outside and warm inside. Service was friendly though a bit slow since the restaurant was busy. It really felt like a family-run place, which I appreciate. I’ll be back to try more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Definitely the best place to satisfy cravings for Salvadorian food! My favorite is the super burrito stuffed with fresh ingredients. The way they prepare everything retains the authentic flavors I love. My family and I frequently return and have introduced our friends to this fantastic spot. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had heard so many great things about El Guanaco, and I’m glad I visited! The atmosphere is welcoming, and the dishes are made with care. I particularly enjoyed the yuca fries and their unique take on traditional drinks. I will definitely return to try more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)
