El Atlakat
Included In
You’re probably familiar with a group of Salvadoran restaurants in Miami that have the same name in slightly different spellings. They’ll all claim they pioneered the Atlakat (or Atlacatl) Salvadoran restaurant movement in Miami. But take what they say with a grain of maize. Regardless of who came first, this is the most charming Atlakat of them all. They have red swivel bar stools and play old school reggaeton that transports you to a jorts-wearing version of Miami that was objectively cooler. They make a delicious and large sopa de mariscos that’s loaded with tender crab legs in a buttery broth. And their pupusas are some of the best in Miami—slightly crisp, filling, and for $4.25, one of the cheapest meals you can have in this city.
