This is my first time ordering from here I ordered thru uber the food is delicious hot fresh the cheese was so rich and cheesy the beans are great I don't usually like black beans but they were so good the rice had an appealing color and great taste they give you the right amount of cabbage and sauce for the papusas and they also had amazing flavor so fresh definitely recommend and I'll be back soon thank you the photo doesn't do the food justice I was in a rush to eat everything smelled delicious oh and the rice water is amazing not too sweet just delicious and the Quesadilla is amazing my daughter loved it with the crema they provide id' give this place a 5 out of 5 even the packing of the...

THIS PLACE IS A MUST TRY. Specifically if you have never had pupusas before. The great thing about pupusas is that it is politically correct to eat them anytime of the day. The breakfast are a really good alternative to the traditional pancakes, waffles or whatever else you normally have in the mornings. Not exactly cheap, but the prices are appropriate for the food. Don't go here expecting a "hooters" type of waitress to be all smiles. These are hard working people who focus much more on the food than pretty much anything else. It is a small place to eat in, so I would recommend take...

The food was good but I had called at 4 and they told me in 15 minutes it’ll be ready. I gave it more time and went at 4:30. The lady gave me attitude saying it hasn’t been 5 minutes and when I showed her she got mad and walked away. I’ve been waiting for my food for over 30 minutes and all I did was stand. I was waiting for them patiently but they still seemed to give me attitude. People who came and placed the order within the spot got their food before I did. I had come here before and the server was very sweet but today he was not there and everyone was just...

To all the other reviewers claiming these are the "BEST PUPUSAS," I have to disagree. The pupusas are overloaded with cheese to give them a thick appearance, but they lack the essential ingredients. The sauce is merely watered-down canned tomato sauce, lacking the authenticity of traditional pupusas sauce. Additionally, the pickled cabbage, a crucial component, isn't fermented properly and tastes like rinsed cabbage. As someone from El Salvador who knows what true pupusas should be, I can confidently say these cannot be considered pupusas— not even American-style ones.

Amazing Salvadorian and Guatemalan menu. Their guacamole is chunky and they give a great portion. I wish the pupusas had more of the ingredient i chose but is mostly cheese - but this makes them super gooey and tasty. I tried a Salvadorian chicken tamale which was super moist and full of meat. The lime agua fresca was so refreshing. The service was awesome. I'm so happy I live so close by. My boyfriend and friend loved their food as well :) I will return!
