“ Definitely recommend trying out this salvadoreño restaurante. Some of the best pupusas I’ve had! Very cheesy, great flavor, and decent size. Great customer service and upbeat ambiance. It did take a while for my food to come out but it was hot and fresh once it arrived to the table. Worth the wait. In the picture are chilate y nuegados. The order comes with three but I had already eaten two when I remembered to take a photo lol. Excelente comida y servicio. Se tardaron un poquito pero valió la pena la espera. Se los super recomiendo. ”
“ Sinia recognized us when we came back! Twice she serviced and it was amazing! The food always is amazing. This place is our little corner stop every Sunday. Muchas Gracias. Espérennos de nuevo. ”
“ I’ve had the pleasure of eating at Las delicias several times. I’ve tried the yucca frita con chicharrón and the yucca was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The pupusas are always delicious and filled to the brim with cheese and filling. The pupusas are pretty big and if you like spice she has spicy salsa made in house. She also has a variety of refreshing drinks from your typical ensalada to her own creations such as the blueberry mint lemonade which is refreshing and perfect for this weather as well as the horchata de coco. This is always a stop I make when I get to Vegas! ”
