This place falls into a sweet spot between typical sit-down Mexican restaurants that mostly cater to non-latinos and an authentic salvadoran dive. The inside features a bar, some booths, and even a pool table. The clientele has always been exclusively latino when I've been, and most of the servers speak limited English, but the vibe is completely welcoming.
Everything is made to order so it can take some time (15 minutes on average), but I've never had a better pupusa. They're crispy on the outside and chewy soft on the inside. All of the combos of chicken and bean with cheese are phenomenal. They're so crazy cheap too: $1.75 a pop!
I'd give this place five stars if they music weren't so often so loud that you can feel the beat in your chest. Order take out or bring ear plugs if you want to dine in. If you're looking to party though then this is your spot. I've seen some of the guys at the bar ask a waitress to dance and they cha cha-ed there way around the place! -

We love this place! Great food, service, and nice covered outdoor seating. The seats outside are not very comfortable but aside from that it's A+.

My husband loves this restaurant as a lunch spot. The food is authentic, the waitstaff is kind, and it is inexpensive.
Today I got the chicken and cheese papusas. They are $1.75 per papusa, and two is more than enough for a meal.
The bar is also great, and fairly inexpensive, so Don Pedro's is great for a cheap date. Our tab was only $20. -

Love coming here, they never disappoint! The food is always delicious and it always feels like home.
I've always gotten the pupusas de arroz and they always hit the spot, and the few times I've tried the other dishes I've loved them too!!
Don't expect to have a normal dine-in experience. Seat yourself, call for the waiter/waitress if you need them. -

We loved Don Pedro's . It was authentic Mexican. Great music and fun. They even made sure we had an English server. The service was exceptional
