    As a self proclaimed pupusa connoisseur, I ordered the beef as well as the pork pupusa. We also…read moreordered horchata, tamal de pollo, a Plato típico guanaco and especial guanaco. Everything was delicious. I'm Salvadorean thus qualified to rate this place highly. Their tortillas tasted so good and homemade. The pupusas were so good and were generously filled with quality meat. I love when places don't premix the filling: I like seeing the cheese separate from the meat. Oftentimes when premixed you can barely see, or taste, the meat. Our main courses were cooked and seasoned perfectly. The tamal was delicious, yes I'm also a tamal snob. Horchata was great, too. What can I say, I have zero complaints. Is it aesthetically or visually appealing? Of course not. But I personally never care for that when choosing restaurants, as long as hygiene or cleanliness doesn't doesn't look questionable.

    My last visit to my favorite pupuseria was not up to par, unfortunately. The plates were visibly…read moredamaged, with melted burned plastic visible, and no wrapper in between the food and the plate. The cheese on the pupusas was visibly not melted, despite dining in. The slaw also looked less than appealing- it seemed like a different combo than I am used to here- but also just looked old. On the upside, my son loved trying his first pupusa (without slaw). Service was wonderful, and I love supporting local businesses. I can see from my previous photos that the plates were ceramic. Maybe it was an off night?

    I wanted to try something new and different. Also I'm on an international sandwich fling! So I had…read moreto try a Pupusa! This is a small family operated shop everyone was friendly and our server kindly answered our questions. There are a few tables to dine in, with plates and flatware; not paper and plastic. I had cheese pupusas, cabbage salad and plantains. For those who don't know I would describe pupusa as a hot sandwich it looks similar to a pita bread but is made of corn flour. It's filled with choices of meat, beans, and cheese. I will be back with non vegetarian family to try more options. The cheese pupusa was hot and Delicias as promised! cabbage salad was basically a creamy coleslaw. Some pickled cabbage also came with the pupusa. Both were very good. Plantains were sliced thin and fried, sweet and ripe, they were served with a rich cream sauce. Pickled onions were also offered we they were very good but I don't eat onions. My SO had a breakfast of eggs, corn tortilla, large slice of white cheese, refried beans and plantains. He ate all the beans and made an egg sandwich with the rest. This might not be the traditional way to eat a Salvadoran breakfast but he enjoyed it. He also had a house salad which he said was very fresh. I will be telling others to try this spot!

    Loved everything about this place. Small, clean, friendly family owned restaurant, everything was…read moremade fresh and delicious. I got 3 different pupusas, the pastelitos, and a Jamaica agua fresca, and everything was as good as I remember. My friend's mom used to make me pupusas, salsa and curtido, and these were just as good. I'm telling all my friends to give them a try and enjoy. Sadly, they're closed on Sunday and Monday.

    What a cute hidden gem ! I have passed by this restaurant countless times & always wondered about…read moreit. It's 5 mins from my home. Took over 10 years but better late then never! Finally went today!! What have I been missing all these years. Taco Tuesday $3 tacos if you want shrimp or fish $4. Margaritas - looked like a fish bowl $5 ! Delicious !!! Brissa our waitress was wonderful very attentive, friendly & welcoming. There was an older gentlemen - I didn't get his name. He was extremely nice, kept coming by to see if all was okay & collected our empty margarita glasses. We ordered the carnitas, chorizo & steak tacos. 6 in total & filling. All delicious especially that they make their own tortillas! Now let's discuss the salsa. Can you make the salsa bowls slightly bigger. Or less chips because the salsa finishes & you have plenty of chips leftover. I didn't want to keep paying for salsa just to finish the chips. I will definitely be visiting again and bringing some friends!

    Greetings, I came…read moreto this location as it was highly recommended for happy hour. My first take is if you are promoting happy hour. Create a separate short menu for HH. It almost felt like they did not like that my group wanted to spend on the happy hour priced food only. The steak and chorizo tacos were a bit overcooked. The chicken and pastor were very good. There was only one sauce to add and it was extremely spicy, no mild sauce. They gave us a small batch of chips for 4 of us and any extras was a charge. We all ordered margaritas, I had tamarindo and it was watery, I requested a shot of tequila to add. I pored half of the shot thinking it would be too strong and nothing. Right before I paid I smelled the shot since I still had some tequila left and didn't smell the tequila. I tasted it and it was watered down, it was never brought cold so I don't know if the bottles are refilled and maybe watered down. My opinion is if you are going to partake in taco Tuesday all day Happy hour you need to make it worth it. If you want to use a cheaper tequila that's fine, hh isn't top shelf liquors but a watered down tequila is an insult. Kindly advised
