We went on a Sunday morning and dined in. Service was a bit slow, but it was well worth the wait! Super tasty, great portion sizes for the cost, and per my boyfriend was authentic! 10/10 would come again.
I have never eaten inside, it is always take out or delivery but when I say their food is absolutely amazing, I mean it. Every single item, from soups to the appetizers, you can't go wrong. The menu is so extensive, I always try something new and never disappoints. I love this place!
So I ordered from Uber eats and wow me and my husband are going in next time to eat the food got to us at a perfect temperate , and plated finely . On top of it they are the best popusas I've ever had !! I highly recommend the chorizo and chesse , I also got the mojarra plate and we loved it !
I ordered from Ubereats, never been to the restaurant before. The papusas were spectacular! And the red sauce sooo good. The squash and chicken were my favorite, will definitely be back to try more.
Great place food was good( I know about flavors I am saldadorean myself) clean place friendly staff and great Christian music
I ordered delivery through door dash. Food was delicious. Everything tasted fresh. I would definitely recommend their pupusas. I tried the chicken and and the shrimp. I loved the chicharrón and the corn tamales. I didn't like the chicken corn tamale but others might. I just don't like cumin much and the texture was not for me. Glad I tried and will order from here again.
Oh the food; fresh and wonderful fried goodness. I got the Plato Tipico and was not disappointed. Crispy yuca fries, long cut plantains holding all the sweetness to complement the chicharron (pork), a well filled pupusa con frioles y queso (bean and cheese pupusa), and a delightfully dense tamal de elote (corn tamal).
Excellent food. The chicken fajitas were delicious. Will come back for lunch here since it's close to work.
Get the fish people, it's really good! Probably not if you are on a date cause it is going to get messy... but in a good way
Hands down, the best pupusas ever! Let's also celebrate how they're dirt cheap at only $1!! We weren't initially greeted so we just sat down at a table that already had menu and then someone came to serve to us. I didn't hear our waitress speak a lick of English, which is not ideal, but thankfully, the boyfriend speaks Spanish. I could probably get by with coming alone and just pointing at things on the menu. Lol. If you don't know what to get - chicharron con queso pupusas! Add some pickled cabbage on top and drench in salsa.
