The pupusas were absolutely delicious and I highly recommend them. However, I would advise against ordering the nachos, as they are made with canned cheese. The horchata had an authentic flavor, reminiscent of real milk rather than rice milk. Overall, I probably won't be returning to this restaurant, but I wanted to provide a fair review highlighting the pupusas while cautioning against the nachos.

There's a lot of competition in Central American restaurants in the area, but La Promesa goes above and beyond of the competition.The place is a chill restaurant/marketplace with breakfast, lunch and dinner offerings. Their tacos and pupusas are great, can recommend.Service is great, if a bit slow at times, but they're attentive and otherwise excellent. It's just a nice, chill place for food.
La Promesa has the best pupusas around the Sterling area. My favorite pupusas are made in Los Chorros located in Maryland, but since I?ve been in VA for quite some time now La Promesa is my new favorite pupusa place. I definitely recommend them. You must try the chicken pupusas! Apart from the food the staff is friendly and I love the music that plays as soon as I open their door!
first time eating a La Promesa; Food was great. Highly recommend the zucchini and cheese pupusas. Everything was fresh and warm. I also had the shrimp, steak and chicken fajitas which was delicious. Love the tortillas! Book a table now
SO GOOD! Got tacos and papusas and both were great. I ate the tacos too fast, didn?t have a chance to take a pic. Here?s a pic of the papusas though. Super friendly staff and great service!!
The food was ready, but the cashier didn't hand it to me until I asked for it. He simply apologized and said he was busy, but he was just standing there not doing anything. Food: 5/5
It’s difficult to find a restaurant in this area that serves great baleadas, but La Promesa has them, and I always keep coming back for more. Food: 5/5
The Papusa here are awesome. Always flavorful. And the chicken Papusa's don't contain chicken gristle, like some places I've tried. Book a table now
This restaurant has the best pupusas and fried rice. The service can be a bit slow since they are always quite busy. Food: 5/5
The service was polite and quick but the pupusas were mediocre, the curtido plain and salsa runny. Not bad but not great.
