Great spot! Large and well stuffed pupusas that are made fresh! Really good platanos fritos.

Delicious and freshly made. Good service. A nice sized menu but I was focused on the pupusas which did not disappoint. Looks like they are encouraging take out as most tables had chairs pulled up on them when I visited during dinner hours. I’ll definitely come again

Salvadoran small dine. Stopped by to check out the Pupusas. Made hot to order. Tasty carnitas flavor and seasoned just nice. Came with a bag of pickled cabbage and side of salsa. This is old school venu. Will try their lunch before my contract is up across the street. As always, post wherever your journey takes you. Other wise, why be boring.

I got the carne asada plate here and it was some of the best carne asada I’ve ever had. Meat had a rich beef flavor, perfectly good, extremely tender, juicy, and well seasoned. Have also tried the quesadilla and hot chocolate, both of which were very good.

Delicious pupusas. We had five different types and the cassava and plantain sweet dessert today. They included a generous supply of red salsa and cabbage. The staff are kindly. If you don’t speak any Spanish, just have a little patience.

I wanted to try a new Salvadoran restaurant in the area, and went to Cipotes. I ordered pupusa Revueltas that fell short of our expectations. They ratio of meat to dough was not good. Almost $5 for one would leave you expecting to have a meat filled pupusa, but no. I wouldn’t come here again. Customer service was okay, restaurant was nice, and they were friendly.. food fell short.

Pupusas are made fresh and were absolutely delicious. I was super hungry and ordered four of them and was totally stuffed and satisfied after eating only one! Very generous portions and super tasty, definitely worth any wait. I brought them home and heated them up on a stove and they were just as good. Horchata was on point too, and the staff was super friendly. Would definitely come back again whenever I have a fix for authentic Salvadoran food, or just need a quick snack.

Delicious! The pupusas are HUGE (see credit card for size) and are freshly made. It’s a casual restaurant but the experience can be like a sit-down restaurant. Your food is brought out to you and they clear the tables as well. Go for the queso and loroco pupusa which have flower buds that taste a bit like cactus. The horchata is great too.

The receptionist is very rude. There is a menu above the counter we ordered their specialty #1 and guess what she says, I don’t know what the #1 menu is. She said the verbiage exactly like that with a shout.
