Definitely the best pupusas I’ve ever had! The rice ones are so good! I’d totally go back! The vibe is more take out but you can dine in. Service was great.

Not happy with my order. I stoped by to pick up lunch for my wife and myself. We both order the stake and rice. Both our orders were burned. Almost all the meat was burned. The place is really rundown. When you dine inn and you face the bathroom wall if someone opens the door you can see right in. One can’t help but to see legs dangle in the stalls. Who wants to see that when you eating. The owner needs to do some serious renovations. It feel like because it’s in a Hispanic neighborhood the owner cares less of how the place looks.

Authentic, affordable, and delicious! Very family friendly and great for a couple or a group. Mario was very welcoming.

The food is the best part, although to put it mildly, it’s not that great. My family has been coming here for years. We liked the food, and although the quality had changed a bit, it had become a custom for us to come here. However, lately, the service has been poor. Today, my daughter placed an order for six chicken and cheese pupusas with shrimp soup. She made the mistake of placing the order in English, which is not always well received. I knew it could be a problem, but I let her finish the order. When we arrived, we spoke with the cashier about our order. She informed us that she had given our soup to someone else but left the pupusas for us to pick up. My daughter placed the order at 8:30 p.m., and we got there at 9:30 p.m., so I accepted the fault. I then asked the cashier to prepar
