El Nuevo Mirador Restaurant

My grandpa lives in LA so we always have him tell us what’s good. He was feeling a bit under the weather and we thought soup would be good for him. He chose this spot and got chicken soup and asked for the chicken to be fried and packed so he could eat that later, as it was a lot of food for him. His soup looked good, had lots of veggies.
I had a pupusa revuelta and tamal de pollo. The pupusa was excellent, probably one of the best I’ve had in a long time! For me a great pupusa is one in which the totilla portion is not greasy and the filling is on point. Some places try to gyp you and will add chicharon and cheese but no beans, when it actually should have all 3 items mixed in! The pupusa here was not greasy and the filling was great with stringy cheese! The tamal was okay, a bit dry. The ensalada drink was also very good. Some places make what seems like an artificial mix and add fruit, which I hate. This place makes a fresh juice with natural fruits and the perfect sweetness. I will return next time I’m in the area!

Loved this place. I made a big order of pupusas once and they had my order correctly and on time. Totally recommend this place. Plus the owner is really friendly. Looking forward to trying more food off their menu.

Very small diner but very cozy and friendly
