El Pulgarcito de America Corporation (yes, that's the name!) - 3133 Fulton Street, in East New York. Overall, a notch better than the ones I've had at the Red Hook ballfields, though those are excellent too. If you're there, definitely get the guacamole too--also outstanding.

re: aviatrix
Pulgarcito is a diminutive character in a children's comic book. The phrase "Pulgarcito de America" is a common Salvadoran phrase meaning (drumroll) The Pulgarcito of America. It just means we are the smallest country in the contiguous American continent, but like Pulgarcito,we're resilient!

re: Peter Cherches
I also second the vote for El Continental. I eat there several times a week as I live around the corner and they are consistently fantastic. If you like Salvadoran food you should also try the carne con chirimol, which is a marinated steak with fantastic salsa. The soups are also excellent and they have very interesting drinks like marañon (cashew fruit juice), chan (don't know the name in English), grenadilla (passion fruit juice) and horchata. Finally, although it's not particularly Salvadoran, their flan is among the best I've had.
