Review by Eunice Mante

Balcon Express is a hidden gem in Tacoma! 🍽️ Their Salvadoran fare blew me away; I highly recommend the pupusas - they were perfectly crispy and stuffed with flavorful cheese and beans. The atmosphere is cozy and vibrant, making it a great spot for families and friends alike.

I also appreciated their accessibility features, and the staff was incredibly welcoming. Be sure to try their vegan options if you're plant-based! 🌱 Overall, an excellent place for a laid-back lunch or dinner. I can’t wait to come back!
