RUNNNN DONT WALK! To order here…read more Food is amazing! Soooo many options to choose from. I am currently obsessed with their platano frito and have been ordering it 1-2x a week for the past month now! I also love how they offer a variety of pupusas to choose from, flavors most don't have. There's Salvadoran food, Mexican food, & Hondurian food, something new to try every time so you don't get bored. Just make sure to always include platano! The star of the show. (Only thing I'd avoid - pupusas de Camaron, $5 and comes with 2 little shrimps, basically feels like a cheese pupusa)

Very disappointed. This used to be my favorite place to get pupusas…read more I placed a group DoorDash order for my co-workers and me right when the restaurant opened at 11:00 a.m. The order was accepted, marked as being prepared, and our DoorDash driver even arrived and waited at the restaurant. After nearly 30 minutes, we received a notification that our order had been canceled because the restaurant was reportedly closed. I'm confused as to how the restaurant could be "closed" after accepting the order, marking it as being prepared, and having a driver waiting for pickup. If they weren't able to fulfill orders, they should have declined or canceled it immediately instead of making us wait. Lost a loyal customer.

This is a very hole in the wall mom and pop shop that I drive by and if you blink, you'll miss it…read more There's street parking around but if you don't mind crossing the street, there's parking around Walgreens. It's a pretty small spot but well worth it. You can order from the window or you can sit, look at the menu and then wait. The food takes time to come out but that is because everything is made fresh and to order. I cannot begin to describe how worth it the wait was. We got horchata to sip on while we talked and were kept in good company until we got empanadas, yucas and finally, our pupusas. All I can say it, everything was delicious and made with love. I do wish they have more support but they seem to be doing well since they've been at the spot forever. All I can say is I was speechless once the food came out because I was just eating.

Los Olivios has my heart! I am so happy to have found a delicious authentic pupusa spot!…read more I'm always on the hunt for a good pupusa and most places either don't have enough filling or have a bland salsa (and we all know how important salsa is!) Thankfully, this place is 10/10 on BOTH! They fill up their pupusas and they taste amazingggg. They also offer the option of spicy or non spicy salsa. I personally get the spicy and I love the kick / flavor, it pairs very well with the pupusa. I also order their platano frito with frijol + crema, the staff is super accommodating and nice when I ask for them to slice the banana thinner for a crispier bite. I highly recommend this location! Service is amazing and food is even better.

What a gem, might be the best taqueria on Alameda…read more Large serving sizes for the price, everything was so good! Fish tacos were not battered - clean flavor and texture, shrimp tacos will be ordered again, tripas was nice and crispy. Also got the Friday special - 3 quesabirria tacos with consume for $10. Plus free chips and salsa. They have canned Coke Zero too. I'll definitely be back. Solid offerings all around, good flavor, good value, not busy, pretty easy street parking. Another yelper mentioned it wasn't overly salty and I 100% agree. Somehow this place has the perfect balance of flavors for everyone in the family - id take my heat adverse kids and older parents and myself. It doesn't seem like the place that's going scorched earth in any dish, i get the sense it's here to deliver some good flavors. I'm really impressed. Food came out hot and quick. The cashier was friendly. Store is clean with bright walls, decorative paper flags, and a few religious figures in the alcoves. This place is to the point in its food and function.

Everything I have had here was delicious, but I especially like the Carnitas, which are lean, sometimes a bit crispy, and have a rich, kinda beefy flavor (even though I assume they are not beef ). The restaurant is conveniently close to downtown Alameda, and I have never seen it overcrowded or had a very long wait for my food. Highly recommended!

They offer both Mexican and Salvadorean fare, with plenty of options for a pescatarian like me. I can't wait to try the salvadorean fish and cheese pupusas as well as the shrimp and cheese pupusas, but there was only so much room in my stomach, so I went for the Mexican shrimp tacos. Yum!

But I did felt like it was missing something.. which was the Curtido(pickled cabbages). I'm going to have to try it again with the curtido in the pupusa hamburger.

And the Birria is super duper delicious as well, Very crispy, juicy, meaty and cheesy and had a side of chili oil. Love it!!! Definitely going back for the PUPUSA HAMBURGER!
