" I have been here several times, and I keep coming back for their amazing pupusas! The flavors are consistently delicious, and the portions are generous for the price. I've brought friends here, and they all agree that the food is top-notch! Their horchata is a must-try as well. Only wish they could speed up the service a bit; it tends to get busy inside. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nice place! I loved the authentic feel of the restaurant and the food was a true representation of Salvadoran cuisine. I appreciated the variety but found the wait to be somewhat long during peak hours. However, the staff were friendly and attentive throughout the meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tasted wonderful! The pupusas tasted like they were hand-made with love and care. The portions were filling and the prices were far from overboard. Definitely a good spot for families and friends. The only downside was it took a while to get our drinks, but it didn’t ruin the evening. Looking forward to going again! " (*Curated Review*)

" The pupusas here are phenomenal! The cheesy goodness paired perfectly with the slightly spicy sauce they offer. I appreciate the variety of options. It's a family-friendly spot, and I enjoyed my meal even if the wait was a little long. I would highly recommend you check out their offerings! " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely love Panchita's! The pupusas are a delightful discovery. They have a homey feel and offer excellent vegetarian options. You can taste the quality ingredients in every bite. They take time to prepare, but I think it adds to the authentic experience. Can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ultra satisfied with my meal! The pupusas were delicious, packed with flavor, and exceeded my expectations. The friendly staff also added to the enjoyable experience. Even though it was quite busy, they handled it well. Can't wait to eat here again! " (*Curated Review*)

" On a whim, I stopped by Panchita's and was blown away by the flavors! The authentic pupusas had melting cheese inside and were served generously. The place has warm decor that adds to the experience, but the service could improve since we had to wait quite a bit. Nonetheless, I will be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)
