El Manguito Restaurant — Restaurant in Los Angeles

This pupuseria is more than words can describe. The size of the pupusas is perfect not overly big and the filling is evenly spread throughout the pupusas so you won’t get just masa as you eat your pupusas so far I’ve had revueltas, queso con frijol, queso con loroco, queso y chicharon and they all taste great. The curtido is just right and it has a little kick of spice. The salsa complements the curtido as well. I’ve also tried their pan con pollo and the recaudo reminds me so much of my late grandma's panes. The pastelitos de res are crunchy and tasty and it’s another thing I just love from this place the seasoning on the res is really tasty. And let me say the horchata and ensalda are good it’s my go-to drink to pair with my food when I come out to eat here. And when I see the owner in the kitchen I know the food is gonna be extra tasty cause she gets down.

Cons: none. If any, I'd say that it may be the very humble inner and outer appearance of...

Don't sleep on this place. The prices are reasonable. All pupusas taste really good. Yes, i've tried most of them. So far, i can say they serve the best Frijol and cheese Pupusas for all of the vegetarians out there. Also, if you order the queso con loroco, add jalapeños for a tasty kick. The breakfast plates are very good. The Marañon and Maracuyan are really good aguas frescas! Stop by and enjoy!

Note: Don't add the chorizo to your breakfast, it's not worth it. It's a small burned piece. The sweet bread is not good n the coffee is light. Also, Service is good when both owners are working, typically in the morning. If theyvare not in youbwill be waiting a bit longer. But Both owners are...
