    My Sweet date and order counter on far corner
    Bienvenido A.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Casual at home ambience.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Good service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place clean and organized.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Spacious seating arrangement.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Maximum occupancy for 49 people.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Easy access from parking with HC spaces right in front of storefront. First time customers. Love pupusas and have tried different places. Their chicken and pork pupusas are both good and I liked them but did not hit the top spot on my ranking. Corn tamal was delicious. Masa was so smooth and not your regular grainy texture. Chicken had good green chile flavor but a little on dry side. A little help of pickled cabbage (Curtido) and crema from plantain banana made the pupusas more enjoyable. Plantain banana by itself to me is better than with the crema. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place got busy and full when our order came.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, the 20 min +~ wait (it's not fast food) is still worth it. Would like to come back again and try others on their menu.

    We had not been here in years because the customer service has always been bad, but our usual spot was closed, so we made the mistake of giving this place another chance. Nothing has changed. We ordered 12 pupusas and were given only 16 ounces of tomato sauce and one bag of curtido. When we asked for more, the woman helping us was incredibly rude and acted like we were asking for something unreasonable. She reluctantly gave us only 4 more ounces of sauce. To avoid dealing with her attitude any further, we ended up paying for extra curtido and salsa. The curtido was also ridiculously spicy and basically inedible for children. We eat spicy food regularly, but we have never had curtido this spicy. It was so spicy that it ruined the meal for the kids and made the already poor experience even worse. It is honestly embarrassing that a restaurant would let something as inexpensive and basic as curtido and salsa be the reason customers walk away upset. If you are selling pupusas, providing a reasonable amount of salsa and curtido should not be treated like some luxury request. We rarely eat out because everything is expensive right now, but it was my mother in law's birthday, so we decided to get takeout for the family. We instantly regretted spending our hard earned money here. The food was not worth the poor service, the stingy portions, or the attitude. This place clearly does not value its customers or understand basic hospitality. Take your business somewhere else.

    Been here quite a few times. Been coming here since before they moved to this location. The pupusas are the best. The location is small but there were several families eating at the restaurant. The pupusas are cooked to order so the wait time is about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on what you ordered and party size. I came here on Sunday around 2pm with a party of 6. It took about 35 minutes for the pupusas to be ready. A server brought us out the food. It got busier after that. Long line to order and I'm assuming the cooks were backed up because they were not answering any phone calls at the time. You can always call in for orders. I saw a pile of orders ready for pickup. Food came out fresh and hot. The pupusas are big for $4. You can definitely get full with one. The curtido (cabbage topping) is delicious. One of the few places I know that make it good. Overall great place to try pupusas.

As we entered, we were greeted and seated quickly even though the restaurant was almost at full capacity. Nicole was our waitress. She was great and attentive. She checked up on us multiple times throughout our stay, greatly appreciated. I ordered the open face hot turkey sandwich. It was good. First place that actually serves thick most turkey breast slices. The bread underneath was slightly toasted similar to garlic bread - surprisingly tasty. The mash potatoes were a bit heavier than normal on pepper. The gravy esa more like brown gravy vs turkey gravy. It was OK. The dining area was noisy because there were several families with several young kids. Understandable. Once most of the families with the young kids started leaving, the noise died down quickly. Even though the restaurant was full, our food orders cane out quick. Great appreciated and surprised. I ordered a vegetable dessert: personal apple pie with vanilla scoops of ice cream (came with caramel but was able to opted for chocolate).

The food itself was good, we tried the sampler which consisted of potato skins, mozzarella sticks, chicken tenders, and a quesadilla. I actually really enjoyed this, it was quite good! For lunch, I ordered a cheeseburger. It was as okay, I just felt like the burger wasn't assembled the best. The fries were good as usual. I would probably go to a different Corky's location next time. It was so busy and I don't like feeling rushed, I'd rather go and feel like I can take my time and really enjoy my meal.

The latte was decent, it would've been perfect if it wasn't watered down (the ice hadn't melted at all, so it wasn't due to the ice). The employee at the register was unwelcoming, appearing very bored throughout our entire interaction. She was somewhat helpful when I asked for a recommendation and what ingredients were in the sandwich, however, she seemed irritated that I even asked. The cafe was quiet, clean, and beautifully decorated showcasing local artists and events. It was chilly due to the AC, however, it was tolerable in a T-shirt; I would recommend bring a jacket inside. Unfortunately, I had to minus 1 star for the service (which was surprising due to the positive reviews... maybe today was an off-day?) but otherwise it was a good experience!
