Taqueria El Pollo Is Now El Sabor De Mercedes

Amazing food but ordering over the phone is tricky.

The food is great. We have visited this place several times and never

I was working a job site not too far from this restaurant. I saw they had papusas and wanted to give them a try. I ordered 2 of their pork, beans and cheese papusas, one carne asada taco and one carnitas taco. I had to wait around 15 minutes. I learned from the owner that the Papusas are made to order, hence the wait. That 's a good thing. I received my order. I tried out the tacos first. The carnitas was just okay. The carne asada was just okay. The tortillas were way over cooked on the flat top and therefor were not moist. The tacos lacked a pop appeal, even with the fresh lime squeezed over them. I tried the papusas. They were pretty good. Not the best ones in the area, but not bad either. There did not seem to be a salsa bar at this place. I could not readily find any salsa to kick up my tacos.I give this place 3 stars for my dead taco 's and lack of salsa bar. If I was in the area and wanted papusas I might stop here. I would not go out of my way to come here. I would not order tacos here. The restaurant interior is plane jane and clean. It 's a papusa joint. It had the obligatory soccer channel on LOL....

Great pupusa varieties and portion. A nice hole in the wall restaurant for el salvadorian

The popusas are good. However other things I ordered were subpar. I regretted my order after I used the restroom and saw how dirty their kitchen/work area is. They had huge pots of chicken soup and meat laying out in the hot weather with flies all over it.
