Asked if I should sit down and was given a frown and a nod 3. I said hi when she came to the table and she said absolutely nothing. 4. Received a WARM beer...eeewwwww, really??? 5. Waitress almost threw the food at me and I didn't even get a chance to ask for some ice water since my beer was warm and gross 6. Pupusas were thick and doughy and super greasy! I normally leave positive reviews but I felt so disrespected and hated because I'm white and don't speak Spanish...and the service was the worst I've had in years. I'm leaving the review to remind myself to never go back when I'm in San Jose. What a miserable experience.

I tried the popular baleada, which is a home-made flour tortilla filled with a layer of mashed red beans, queso fresco, eggs and with or without meat (I got it with carne asada). The flour tortilla was just as other described - soft, buttery smooth, almost melt in your mouth goodness. The carne asada was dry and hard so I could've gone without. I bet a braised beef like barbacoa would've been perfect for this item. It also came with salsa and I selected mild which gave it a nice bright flavor. I also ordered a chicken tamale (they also offer pork) and I was surprised to find a whole chicken wing (no skin) stuffed into the tamale! I broke into it using a fork and hit something hard which turned out to be the bones. But honestly, this was one of the best tamales I've tried in a long time. Flavorful, moist, and a nice sized portion. It came wrapped in what I think was banana leaf. The service was fast on a Wednesday night and there were a handful of friendly patrons seated nearby. You could tell that they were regulars. The space was intimate with around 10-15 tables seating about 4 people each. Maya's Cafe menu has a wide assortment of dishes to choose from: serving breakfast dishes like chilaquiles, lunch items such as burritos, or soups and full on dinner plates with rice, beans, and choice of protein. There's even more selection and the whole menu is in Spanish so I'll be sure to use Google Translate next time!

Delicious tacos for an amazing price!…read more My family loves coming here, as they always have big tables to accommodate us, including outside seating for our dog. Service is good, however usually the drink comes out after our food does. We ordered beef tongue, pastor and carne asada tacos. They are simple and delicious tacos, and on Tuesdays they have a deal for 5 for $10. If you like spicy foods, I would definitely recommend ordering the chilies toreados, grilled jalapeños topped with grilled onions, absolutely delicious! My favorite drink is the sangria preparada, a sweet and spicy drink. They also serve yummy micheladas and agua frescas.

The shell was crispy and flavorful and completely loaded with potato, cheese, and lettuce. Staff here are friendly and had good service. Space was clean and had ample seating inside. The menu is large so it may be overwhelming but now with my 4th visit (with no repeat items) I feel as though any dish would be good to try.

IMHO The Pupuseria…read moreDelmy food truck sets up shop in my east foothills' neighborhood, on Story Road between Fleming and Machado, on Sundays. The food truck is parked in a gravel driveway/parking "lot". Look for the tall billowing sign boasting "Pupusas" and three flags along the fence. My curiosity finally got the best of me when I saw a stand-up sandwich sign on the street saying, "Open Now". We drove in and parked behind the food truck although you can park on the street. We were handed a menu and were told "Solo pupusas". I suppose they offer other items in other locations, but I was fine just trying a pupusa, having never enjoyed one before. We ordered two carne asada w/cheese pupusas, $4 each. I paid with cash. The young lady had to dig into her purse for change. LOL I tipped the change into the tip jar. They have some tables and chairs under a canopy to wait or dine. There is also a portable sink to wash your hands and a porta potty nearby. It took maybe 10 minutes to get our order, as these are made-to-order. Our to-go order was really hot and came with a bag of ice-cold tomato salsa and a bag of slaw, (which I later learned is curtido.) Since this was the first time trying a pupusa before, we had no idea how to eat it and what to do with the curtido and salsa. Eventually we figured it out but no matter how we ate them, these pupusas were delicious!!! Will we go back! Absolutely!!!

My family liked them, but they said they weren't the best. For the price, they were okay. A little smaller than what we're used to. The only bad thing I could say is they didn't like the cheese. They said it wasn't the same kind of cheese, and the meat wasn't very seasoned. Other than that, they're pretty decent. I probably won't go back again, but they're not bad. Just, they're not just what we're used to. A little bit more flavor, a little cheesier. Not as much filling as we're used to. Being from El Salvador, I just have a certain expectation of food specially Pupusas.

The size of the pupusas were big! That being said I wasn't impressed. I felt it didn't really have a lot of flavor. As for the Salvadoran tamale it was weird the banana wrap felt kind of greasy but there were part of it that were hard. I'm not sure if it was really old or what the deal was. I can't speak for how the rest of the restaurant was because this was a door dash order. I don't think I'll be going out of my way to find out though. It's unfortunate
