Love this spot right by the Shell Gas station, husband and wife, hard working folks, everything makes fresh. Love how fine they chopped their cilantro and onion. Love their street tacos, simply tasty, and their green salsa sauce is bomb. Support small business!
A pupusa search brought me here. I was excited to see Elote on the menu but sadly they were out. I also got the quesadilla which was really good and so was the pupusa. Nice lady at the counter. The only nit is that they are cash only. Luckily I had $20 cash in my car for emergencies and I knew it would pay off one day! ;-)
This food truck is located in a gas station parking with a chairs and table set up. Been wanting to try it for a while now and finally made it over. I ordered the papusa plate filled with pork, beans an d cheese. My bf ordered the chichirones plate and we ordered an elote to share. Everything was delicious and freshly made! Prices are reasonable and the portions are big.
If you want handmade Pupusa's, then I think this is going to be your place. Yeah, it's a food truck, and yeah, you sit on plastic chairs unless you get it to go, but you can watch this wonderful cook preparing and cooking your pupusa's from scratch! Top it off with the curtido that they provide, and it's a great meal. Yeah, curtido is kind of like a cabbage cole slaw type of stuff, but for some reason when you dump it on top and eat it together with the pupusa, it's the exactly perfect blend. No idea if the chef is Salvadorian or not, but the pupusa's are really tasty and will definitely satisfy your craving! Oh, incase you don't know where it is, the food truck is literally parked on the grass area of the gas station across from the new (not yet opened as of 2019) apartment complex on Winchester and Williams.
My husband went to the most amazing taco stand and brought me back 6 carne asada tacos. Omg not greasy rubbery meat. It was crispy and tender and covered with fresh onions and cilantro. They have this spicy green sauce that tastes so fresh and is so spicy. I often find taco hot sauce not very spicy and I eat very very spicy. This is the bombbb!!! I will come here often now!!! You must try . Also very clean and packaging is good. Update: came by here again after being outdoors all afternoon. Ordered 5 carne asada tacos and a carne asada burrito. Husband said it is so good and tastes better than LA. Green sauce is so spicy and has great flavor. Carne asada is not drenched in oil which I hate. Owners are friendly and woman working there is quite pretty too! Will be coming back again. Just excellent
Hidden gem at the corner of Winchester & Williams. Quite a surprise to have both the pupusas revueltas and carne asada tacos be so delicious! So much flavor in the asada itself let alone the tortillas are fried just a bit which adds to the overall bite. The pupusas were REALLY tasty and better then majority restaurants nearby that serve Salvadorian/pupusas (e.g mi chalateca, mi chalateco). I'm already a returning customer and this time around the chef was about to pack up but stayed just take my order. Very nice of him! This place is a definite must try!
The pupusa was really good and so were the tacos. The pupusa was $10.50 and the tacos were $6. Took 10 mins for the order to be ready. Currently, there's construction going on, so the chairs and tables are dusty. I'd be back here again because the food was filling and good.
The pupusas come with beans, cheese, and pork. They are made fresh to order. The filling can be customized. The spicy green salsa is a bit hotter than expected so taste before pouring the whole thing. Made fresh to order and super toasty hot. A quote from Haduro- "Best pupusa I have ever had!" Service was very friendly, welcoming like family. Don't forget to tip them if you appreciate their kindness.
This little truck is a hidden gem! I got the carne asade tacos and a bean and cheese papusa. All were made fresh and the gentleman was so kind!! The sauce was just the right amount of spice for me, and the cabbage slaw on the side with the papusa was delicious and fresh--the perfect complement. I am going back, and want to try their burrito as well( usually a burrito girl!). and of course I'm getting a full papusa plate this time! So delicious!!! Picture taken mid bite bc the food smelled so good.
This Salvadorian food truck just opened across the street from where we live. Seems to be run by a husband and wife. They are very nice. I asked for two orders of pupusas revueltas (bean, cheese, and chicharón) and it took about 15 minutes for them to finish and it was well worth the wait! Delicious, fresh, perfectly balanced flavors (make sure you eat with the cabbage and green salsa). The only thing to be aware of is that they are cash only; if you need to use card be ready to pay an extra $2.50 to use the ATM inside of the Shell station. We will definitely be returning!

This place was fire I haven't had pupusas this flavorful in forever. They were a pretty good size and had a good amount of filling. I ended up getting 7 pupusas for about $35 they take Zelle and Venmo. read more

My friend & I were on our way to Mizu's for sushi. Drove by this place & ended up here for dinner. Super sweet workers & amazing Papusas ($9.15 for three! The tacos were delicious too but that salsa is crazy spicy! read more

New, pupuseria and taqueria truck, located at Shell gasoline station on corner of Winchester & Williams. Found it as was driving on Winchester; according to cook, it has been open a month and a half. We ordered some revueltas (cheese, beans and chicharrones) which we're very good. These are made to order, so be prepared for a 15 minute wait--but worth the wait, as are served piping hot. While the pickled curtido (slaw) was ok, the green spicey salsa was great. Will be returning next time we're up for pupusas. read more
