We could use the pandemic as an excuse for not getting to Oak Park’s Buena Fe sooner, but we’d be lying. We finally got around to trying this well-regarded restaurant serving authentic Mexican and Salvadorian food; it did not disappoint!

The Tampiqueña shown in the photo above won us over. The steak was so tender and flavorful, our mouths are watering just thinking about it. The plate included plenty of extras including rice, beans, and tortillas. We also ordered tasty Tacos al Pastor and Salvadorian Pupusas, griddled corn dough with choice of fillings. We opted for one Cheese Pupusa and one filled with Beans and Cheese.

Buena Fe is located at 10116 W Nine Mile Rd, Oak Park, MI 48237.
