Authentic, hand made, Salvadorean food. The fresh pupusas are made by hand every day and you can taste the quality and care put into each one. The owner is absolutely wonderful, I hope you get the chance to meet her!

This place has super fresh and tasty pupusas, quite inviting environment and the Italian lady at the order counter was very courteous and nice.

This was my first time eating pupusas. The first one was delicious, a perfect ratio of cheese, beans, pork, and masa. The second pupusa tasted like styrofoam, because it had fused with the styrofoam container. I would recommend skipping this place until they change their packaging. It’s unfortunate because the food is otherwise delicious.

Food was delicious and cooked to order. prices are reasonable. It seems other reviews are impatient and don’t appreciate freshly cooked (vs microwaved)

I liked the pupusas but the people who work there have a bad attitude towards customers. I understand that we can all have a bad day, only that the clientele does not have to bear the frustration of the workers.

Tried the bean & cheese and the jalapeno & cheese pupusa. Not disappointed. Served with your own bowl of curtido and the salsas.

I had some pupusas, chicken, beans and rice, and jalapeño. They were all delicious and fairly priced. They are very much like a Mexican gordita but a little different. I will be back to try the other pupusas soon.

Says they close at 7. Walked in 628 and they said if you’re gonna order make it fast we’re closing in a couple minutes.

So finally tried a new place to eat. Customer service was BAD. But only got the basic California Burrito. It didn’t taste bad and it was actually good BUT the hot sauce smelled like coffee which we thought was weird not too sure what was going on there. I thought this was going to be a good place to eat from now on because my stomach didn’t hurt after, but here comes 1am in the morning and BOOM, diarrhea. It just means something is either wrong with their food or hot sauce I ate for dinner around 4pm. So needless to say I will not be coming back for more food.

I stopped by while waiting for an oil change to be completed next door. I had a great three mini-taco steak meal (picture posted above) for $3.50. The tacos came with guacamole and fresh salsa. Overall they were excellent. I also got a side order of rice which was pretty good also.
