Ercilia’s Restaurant: Kick Back with a Plateful of Authentic Salvadoran Fare at This Casual Eatery Near Allegro
Located just moments from Allegro, Ercilia's Restaurant is a casual place. When you come in the door, you'll head directly to the back of the restaurant, where you'll read the menu board and place your order at the counter. But don't let the laid-back atmosphere fool you: The kitchen at this DC eatery has a reputation for turning out delectable, high-flavor Salvadoran meals!
Pupusas are a customer favorite and can be filled with marinated shredded beef, grilled chicken, and more. Add seasoned black beans or golden-fried yucca on the side, and you've got a full meal. In fact, regulars note that the combination plates offer the best bang for your buck, as they combine a main dish with a couple of sides for less than you'd pay to see a movie. Finally, be aware that everything here is made to order, so don't expect to get your meal as quickly as you would at a fast-food joint. Instead, be prepared to sit down and wait a few minutes while your meal is prepared from scratch.
