    Me encanta la gastroteca, pero cada vez que voy siento una peor atención. Esta última no me agradó. No hubo pro actividad de los meseros, pedíamos café, se tardaban, no nos llevaron el juego de naranja hasta que lo pedimos. Necesitan mejorar la atención. Todos los clientes merecen la misma atención de calidad, no unos cuantos

    Thank you for the best gastronomic experience of our lives. You served and treated us well both my girlfriend and I. We were celebrating 2 years of relationship and I’m about to propose. This experience will certainly be one to remember and make us come back. Thank you Franklyn, Gerardo and Alejandro for everything.

    The food was deliciously seasoned, well portioned and at the right temperature. The wine list had nice selections with a few higher-end bottle choices. The service was friendly, attentive and prompt. Overall, this restaurant is a gem and a “must try” in San Salvador for foodies.

    What I like about La Gastroteca is that is not only great food, but also great service and a relaxing environment. The datil bread pudding was a surprise.. I recommend La Gastroteca when you want a place that is not pretentious but achieves their goal to be a fancy restaurant.

    Muy buena experiencia, la comida como siempre deliciosa. Probamos el lechón y el pulpo, recomendados como de lo mejor del menú. El budín de dátiles fue algo nuevo para mí y debo repetirlo. Nos atendió José y nos ayudó mucho a elegir el vino y fue muy cordial y estuvo siempre pendiente.
