History

Established in 1999.

Founded by a Salvadorean-​American Woman, Irma Vasquez wanted to create a place where families could come and enjoy authentic, cultural flavor and exceptional service.

By combining years of experience in traditional Salvadorean cooking and an awareness for healthy cooking techniques, El Mestizo soon gained a reputation for having unique twists on traditional plates and being a much healthier option for customers (All food cooked with 100% cholesterol-​free soy bean cooking oil).

Another great option for the customers, a Freshly squeezed Juice menu! Many combinations available to help you start your day or help you maintain your healthy living. Aside from having many delightful Salvadorean and Mexican dishes, El Mestizo is most famous for its variety of savory, and beautifully crafted, Pupusas. In 2007, El Mestizo Restaurant introduced a 100% vegetarian menu, including many of the house favorites… and yes… many vegetarian Pupasas!
