  Tacos al pastor with pineapple hit the spot! Music a bit too loud but the food is good for a cheap price! Pass on the Papusa...way too greasy! Stick with the tacos!

  This place was average. I had the tacos asada. The meat was not seasoned well, and a little dry. The salsa bar had several different options. Most of the salsas were just ok. The watery one that looks like they poured off the juice from some pico de gallo was actually my favorite. I'd go back, but knowing I am not in for a treat, just an emrgency fix for tacos.

  Good authentic Mexican and Salvadorian food. I really like the yucca & salsas.

  This place serves up some Mexican and Salvadorian foods, think tacos and papusas... there's also some more typical plates. Dine in or order in, but it's just a hole in the wall. There's also a salsa bar.
  
  Tacos were $1.50 each and papusas were $1.75 each. The carnitas and asada tacos are pretty darn good =) Wouldn't recommend the buche unless you already are a fan.
  
  Pros: Tasty food, complimentary chips & salsas, open late
  
  Cons: Ran out of one of the salsas and didn't replace it and I once may have gotten food poisoning too after eating a buche taco

  Went there with a guy from work and he said the tacos where good.  I had three tacos for $1.50 each.  All three tacos were served with a tortilla and a lot of meat on top of the tortilla.  The most meat on a tortilla/taco that I have, yet.  Then you go to the salsa bar to get your choice of, I think 3 salsas (red, green, orange), pico de gallo, cilantro, jalapenos, and limes.  They have little cups so you can take a variety of stuff to your table.  I had to eat some of the meat out of each taco just because I didn't want the tortilla to break with all that meat in it.  The tortillas were fresh but I'm not an expert to know if they were home made or not.  I'll ask next time.  Overall, I really enjoyed the tacos and so did my coworkers.   We added this place to our $5 lunch list.  Oh, the drink situation at this place is wierd.  On tap, they have some mexican type drinks.  In the refrigerator, there are an assortments of sodas but no diet.  Not sure why.  Anyway it's worth trying this place out.  Note: it may be hard to find.  It sits against a big store, I forgot the name of the store.

  My husband and I were out running errands and looking for a cheap place to eat.  Heading towards Carls Jr. my husband said he saw a sign for Tacos y Salas.  I probably turned the car towards the restaurant before he finished his sentence.  
  
  I haven't been to any other locations so I don't know if the El Salvadorian food is a standard part of the package.  My husband and I used to eat at an El Salvadorian restaurant in Palm Springs and haven't had anything similar since living in Denver.  
  
  I wasn't 100% sure the Pupusas would be what I was expecting them to be but they were, little pillows of deliciousness.  I ordered two, a queso and loroco and a queso and frijoles.  They are served with a cabbage and carrot slaw that I piled on and ate like a taco.  I was in heaven.  My husband tasted them but there wasn't any meat so he wasn't too impressed.  I also ordered an al pastor taco and was a bit underwhelmed.  The tortilla was homemade and delicious but the meat was chewy and not very flavorful.  I had pretty high expectations after having amazing tacos al pastor in Santa Fe a few weeks ago.  Alas, there was no pineapple and no flavor.  
  
  My husband ordered a carne asada burrito.  The burrito wasn't sealed on either end which caused it to just break apart the moment Brian tried to pick it up (as I told him it would and suggested he rolled it over and was more cautious).  The carne was very flavorful and tender though so it smoothed out the minor inconvenience of picking at the broken carcass of a burrito.
  
  I rounded the meal out with a chilly Sidral and happily paid the $14.  I am salivating just thinking about another pupusa.
