    Pupusas
    Breana A.

    The food was amazing! Super authentic. The service was as amazing and quick. The ambience feels very home-like if you know what I mean. 10/10 recommend. The pupusas are huge! So worth it

    Receipt

    El Servicio estuvo terrible! Vine con amigas Se olvidaron de mi orden les pregunte por mi comida dos veces MIs amigas ya habian terminado de comer. Me toco Que cancelar mejor, despues Que cancele mi order el mesero Nunca regreso, ni disculpas NADA. La manager o la mujer en la registradora ni hablaba paracia Que el raton le comio la lengua. Avoid this place, they forget about your order and they won't even apologize, then the water goes away and never comes back as if it's your fault ?? All my friends were done eating I asked for my food 2 times. It was just beans and plantains.

    Regia with a side of cucumbers and orange wedges!

    Do you want to feel like you're in El Salvador?! Well, come to Metapan! Service is great, and yes, the best pupusas in town! I posted pictures in IG and everyone thought I was in El Salvador lol . The ambience is pretty cool, with staff that welcomes you as if you were a regular. Of course, I came because they have my favorite beer, Regias! Served with a side of cucumbers and orange wedges!

    Metapan has been on my list of places I haven't tried yet for a while. My wife and I passed by several times waiting for the chance to stop by. Tonight we had that chance. I would love to say that the visit was without issues. Our meal began with slices of oranges and cucumber seasoned with tajin. Which is one of my favorite snacks so I was looking forward to what was to come. I ordered a size of chicharron because it is one of my favorite foods in existence, I loved it. It was hot and tender as well as seasoned perfectly. I also ordered tamal de elote with beans and crema. I was surprised to see that they came with pinto beans instead of black beans but they were good as was the crema. Half way through the tamales they were ice cold. So I moved on from them to the Chicharron pupusas I ordered and I enjoyed those. Our server was friendly and welcoming for a large percentage of the meal, however when my wife found out the drink she ordered was out , she asked for a glass of water which never came. So my feelings here are mixed and I want to give a great review. I can only say it was good but sadly not good enough for us to return.

    Tasty pupusas and I appreciate that i can order on the phone ahead of time. They gave me enough curtido and salsa for my food.

    i honestly loved this place for a while now. but today i can't even understand how this happened. there was a literal cockroach COOKED into my pupusa. not just there cooked into it . i can't even believe the amount of bugs there has to be to have one cooked into my pupusa. i loved this place but i can never trust it again. BUYER BEWARE

    Came here and had a great experience. We tried a few pizzas along with some beer and wine, and…read moreeverything was really solid. Loved the intimate atmosphere, super cozy, perfect for a relaxed night out. Service was great and the team was on top of it, I forgot my servers name but he was awesome. I also love that they serve breakfast... definitely coming back to try more, but the breakfast burritos are 10/10! Overall, a really enjoyable spot with a great vibe.

    1. There is no breakfast cafe vibe in this place. Instead of vibe, this place has many flies trying…read moreto land on our coffee cup and pastry. 2. There is breakfast Bruno in the menu in the yelp review, and that's why I went there. However, the coffee guy said they took Bruno from their menu 4-6 months ago. I highly recommend that the owner take a little time to update the online review and pictures. 3. The coffee table is sticky and dirty. We can see some jam left from last customer on the table. 4. This is the first breakfast cafe I went to served our expensive, cold and soggy pastries in a paper bowl. 5. The latte is cold as well. My husband has to pull his hot coffee to the latte to make it warm. 6. I chose this place because of online views. How can this place earn 5 full stars ?????? 7. At the end, I and my husband made a bet. This place will close in 18 months. Is there anyone bet together with us?

    I can't believe I haven't written a review for this place yet, I've eaten here for years…read more I have frequently ordered out but ordered at the restaurant once. My go to empanada is the chicken Al pastor oh my god it's a flavor bomb empanada, so delicious. I also get every so often the Nutella and bananas which I mean you can never go wrong with those flavors. The fries idk what they put in them but they are so addicting, before I know it I finish the whole thing. The service is great, the people are friendly. Parking is a big things for me and this area has plenty of it in the shopping center where it's located. Overall amazing empanadas.

    First time I was at the restaurant with a group of friends trying the empanadas for the first time…read moreto see if I wanted to order for a party on the weekend. We enjoyed the empanadas, I think for our group of 5 we ordered at least 20 empanadas and 3 plates to try. I asked a man behind the counter I need a order for 2/3 dozen on Sunday around 12pm. He said not a problem, I should call Sunday at 10 to place the order. I asked "are you sure" he responded it would only take 20 minutes. Problem number 1: No one was answering the phone Sunday morning, I called multiple times. Problem number 2: It take forever to place the order via the website AND there is a superfluous "support local fee" that cannot be opted out. I want this refunded. As someone who invited the group to dinner there Wed where we spent at least $150ish to my order for Sunday around $170, how dare a "support local fee" be added that could have been avoided if someone answered the phone. Problem number 3: The order was 30 mins late. Lack of personal awareness regarding your capability to answer phones and prepare orders on time is a problem. My first and second experience was so vastly different, beyond disappointing, on a day where I am putting things together to host a party it caused unnecessary stress I sent an email and didn't hear back and wanted to post my experience.
