Food here is a 5/5. I didn’t realize pupusas could be this delicious with just a handful of simple ingredients. These are small tortilla-like breads stuffed with pork and cheese. The simplicity of the ingredients paired with the excellent green hot sauce and vinegar cold shredded cabbage makes for an excellent experience.
I had both their pupusa revuelta as well as the pupusa y chicharron. While both were good, I preferred the chicharron one more since it had crispier pieces of pork and had more fat content.
I tried a little bit of their pupusa with loroco. It had a distinctly different smell and flavor, and it wasn’t something I would get again since it wasn’t as good as the others.
If you are really hungry, go with 3 pupusas. If you aren’t ravenous, 2 will be a decent amount.
They serve a small ramekin of a coleslaw that has some vinegar and sugar. I found that having this with the pupusa and green hot sauce was perfect. You would get the heat from the sauce, the chewy and savory flavors from the pupusas, and then the sweet, tart, and crunch from the veggies.
The ONLY reason I even take away one star is from the cleanliness of the establishment. When looking under tables, this place left a lot to be desired in terms of cleanliness. The biggest issue was that I saw the biggest cockroach that I’ve ever seen, just walking through the restaurant like it owned the place. Thankful I only noticed this AFTER my meal. This was easily a 3-inch cockroach.
Overall, I would come here again, maybe to take-out next time just to avoid running into any bugs. The food is...
Read moreBest pupusas I’ve tried so far in Nashville!!
Let me start off by saying, my regular pupusa place closed down a couple of weeks ago, and a lot of people have told me great things about this place. So I decided to try it…
I called in and ordered 6 pupusas and I asked if they would give me extra sauces, the lady who answered the phone told me yes and it would be 25 minutes. I arrived and waited, I went inside and used their restroom. Restroom was super clean, I walked towards the front and they politely asked me if I was waiting on an order, I told her yes and my name! She then tells me my food would be out shortly. I grabbed my food and I paid.
Let me juts say…. Their customer service was beyond my expectations, I’m the type of person that thinks and feels like….. if their customer service is good, their food must be amazing…..
First thing I noticed when I opened my bag was how much extra sauces they gave me, WOW! You guys are amazing! Second thing I noticed, was HOW AMAZING THE PUPUSAS WERE.
Not only did I get amazing customer service, extra sauces, but the foood was so delicious!!! If I would have known the food was this good I would have grabbed a dessert. I’m sure I’ll be back, and next time I’ll try their desserts. I’m looking forward to It. Thank you for your great...
Read moreA friend of ours recommended this place and since we were in Nashville visiting family we decided to give it a try. It fell way short of expectations. When we came in we weren't greeted. We had terrible service. Our waitress, Elida, was one of the worst waitresses I have ever had. When she came to our table there was no smile or greeting from her. Very rudely handed us our menu and asked what we were drinking. When my sister ordered a quesadilla, she rolled her eyes and said they didnt have any. It was on the menu, she said they didnt have the ingredients. I asked her if they really didnt have cheese (since a lot of things on the menu have cheese) and she just said "oh a cheese quesadilla, I thought chicken". But her tone and her rolling eyes were so rude. Once our food came, she never came to check on us, not once. The popusas were good, not something extraordinary, but they were good. The service is always very important to me, and from how I was treated, I'm never coming back when I'm...
