The Top 10 Restaurants In San Salvador, El Salvador
El Salvador may be the smallest country in Central America but it punches above its weight when it comes to food. Nowhere more so than in San Salvador, the capital, where art cafés and high end restaurants stand shoulder to shoulder with top-notch burger joints and neighborhood canteens serving Salvadoran classics. These top ten restaurants show the city’s cuisine at its very best.
1. Rustico Bistro
Bistro, American
2. Restaurante Citron
Restaurant, Salvadorian, South American
3. Los Tacos de Paco
Los Tacos de Paco
Not only does Los Tacos de Paco serve some of the best and most authentic Mexican food in San Salvador, but it also doubles as a bookshop and art gallery, holding poetry readings on Wednesday nights. Popular with members of the city’s arts scene, these literary gatherings celebrated their 10th anniversary in 2012 and are a great place to meet like-minded locals. Meanwhile you can tuck into plates piled high with Mexican street food staples, such as crisp tacos and golden quesadillas oozing with melted cheese, which all go perfectly with a cold beer.
