Paseo San Miguel: Experience Authentic Salvadoran Cuisine in Pico Rivera

Several times of coming here. Place is always clean and service is always friendly and fast. Pricing is great and food is without doubt delicious! If you're looking for authentic Salvadorian food, try this place out! Will be back soon for my pupusa and horchata cravings.

A small taste of El Salvador! Everything we've eaten so far has tasted delicious fresh and just like my grandmother would make it. Servers are very friendly and polite. The decor is something you'd experience at a local restaurant in el salvador, Traditional art painted on the walls and you can't miss the Cumbias playing in the background. The one thing I'd point out is that the bathrooms are usually messy and bit dirty. But besides that this restaurant is definitely one of our favorite go to for pupusas.

This place serves really good and authentic food that'll make you turn this restaurant into a weekly visit location. The portions are a good size and they are definitely not stingy with their condiments (salsa, cortido). The only con would be the parking situation, but the food will make up for it.

I ordered takeout, and the food was good. I ordered pupusas and the plantains, beans, and cream. I wondered what another reviewer meant when they said the prices were higher than similar restaurants in the neighborhood, but that's because the online prices need to be revised! Pupusas are now $3.99; carne asada pupusas are $4.99. Platanos con todo are now $11.49. The service was fast but I paid almost double the amount I was expecting based on the online prices. : (

This place has great food. It's the real deal. Authentic and freshly made food. The only heads up I would give is that it is pretty small. So if you're planning to have a large group. I wouldn't recommend it as the space is very limited. Friendly staff. Sometimes there is also a wait because again it is a small establishment. Authentic flavors wide variety of Salvadorian food! Thank you Paseo San Miguel! Good portions too!

run, don't walk... or skip if you want... totally up to you. This is a hidden gem. Locally owned and operated, super nice but no one I encountered spoke English. So put your high school Spanish classes to the test here. We had pupusas and empanas of various fillings. But rather than waste time on this review, I'll just strongly suggest my favorite items. Food 5++ Get the Bean, Cheese and Pork Pupusas. We ate these next to the carne asada and chicharrones with cheese.... Dude. So much more flavor in their beans . Speaking of beans, get their plantain empanadas stuffed with beans. It has an aromatic fresh cinnamon flavor with a little bit of sugar on top. So. Freaking. Good. Service 4.5 They forgot some things but it could have been a language barrier Ambiance 3 15 years ago it was fun to have people sign your wall. Now it's filled with IG and TikTok promotions. Ew.

Large, delicious pupusas for $3.50 a piece. Place is a small hole in the wall restaurant and gets very busy. Expect a short wait.

Went to our usual spot and it was packed. Decided to try this place. Paseo San Miguel is our new spot!!!!!! These were the best pupusas we have had. Home cooked feel, taste and the service is good. Food came out very quickly, and waitresses were polite. Plenty of seating. Good music playing in this very clean location. Will definitely be returning!! 100% recommend!
