This little hole in the wall has some of the best pupusas and refríes beans ever their sopa de Rez is outstanding. They are Covid compliant and have take out which is awesome.
AMAZING ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!!!!!! We were in the neighborhood and starving and found this restaurant. I'm so glad I did! I ordered vaca frita and my husband ordered grilled chicken lunch. Omg the servings were crazy big. We really really love that!!!! The food was freakin crazy good!!! And the service was on point!!! And thank God the place was super clean so was the bathroom (VERY IMPORTANT!!) definitely come in and eels here!!!!!
This place doesnt say much from outside but the food is phenomenal! Spacious and the staff is friendly. Food is comforting- the chicken wings were crispy on the outside and nice and soft on the inside, the beans had so much flavor. I cant wait to go back and try some breakfast option. This is the perfect example of not judging a book by its cover. I highly recommend this place, also very affordable!
The best salvadorean restaurant nearby. Excellent service, excellent food. The place is small but the quality of the food makes you forget those details.
This little hole in the wall is a true Miami hidden gem. If you're looking for authentic Central American food, Las Pavas is it. The service can be hit or miss, but on their worst day I would deem it was above average. The food is reasonably priced, portions are generous, and if you're into pupusas, THIS.PLACE.IS.IT. Their baleadas are phenomenal, fruits juices are excellent, and their soups are AMAZING. I would say if you're ever craving a hearty homemade soup, this should be your number one choice. Their soups will bring you back to life if you're feeling blue!
