    Excellent food! Made fresh as you order but it doesn't take long! Service was excellent. The gals that took our order were extremely patient as we kept changing and adding what we wanted. They were very friendly. Location is pretty small but dining in is still an option. Everything was equally delicious! Pupusas made out of rice flour are a must!

    This one is tough, but i have to settle on "OK" and three stars instead of "Good" and four stars. The space is tight, but mostly it's a bit junky and cluttered. It's comfortable but very hole-in-the-wall in a not-so-good way. Service is friendly and helpful but quiet. The pupusas were good but lacking a bit of flavor. Salt? Spice? Somethings is missing. The plantain empanadas were not great. They were maybe good at best, but they were greasy and also lacking flavor. I am not sure if I will return as there are more and more pupuserias in the region each year.

    Revueltas pupusas

    I ordered two revueltas pupusas and a Diet Coke. The pupusas were huge and delicious!. I was full after the first one, but they were so good it was hard to stop eating them. I also really liked the slaw that came with it (not sure the official name) and the salsa verde. Excited to try more of their menu.

    This place is so good! I had a beef quesadilla. Which has some very good Carne asada inside. I also ordered a chicken dish which was great! This skin was crispy and the chicken super tender. The sauce made it perfect, along with the side that it came with.

    Takeout spread - so good

    I do love pupusas and these are pretty good. Their fried plantains are insanely good, and they're part of this amazing breakfast plate they have with a fried egg, refried beans, and cream that I could eat every day. Just make sure you don't order online because the third party system that tells the restaurant the orders is really slow and delayed so it's better to just call in the order if you're taking out.

    Burritos

    Small restaurant with great flavors. I got the pupusa and burrito and I was so full after eating everything. It was quite delicious. You definitely get your moneys worth! I will come back in the future.

    Chicken burrito.   SO GOOD!

    Amazing food! Don't let the little strip mall location fool you! This Pupuseria has won me over. Their chicken burrito with black beans, rice, and fajita veggies is one of the best burritos I've had in Washington State. It also has lettuce, crema, and pico. You have to eat it immediately while it's piping hot! So GOOD!! $8!

    The best pupusas i have ever eaten! Better then Central Market in LA, better than any Pupuseria in DC, Chicago, NY, the best in Washington State. Excellent costumer service, extremely clean, incredible prices. 100% satisfaction!!!! I will drive from Mercer Island to get them!!!!

    Very good food, freshly made by caring staff. My family will definitely be back. I had the Yucca and Chicharrons and they were awesome.

    This place was a nice find! Very large eating spaces with a lot of table size choices! A few TVs…read morefor sports viewing! Even had a bar with seating. The staff were very authentic and sweetly attentive! My grilled steak was quite tender and tasty! the refried beans were actually some of the best refried beans I've ever had! The rice was tasty as well! I strongly recommend if you crave Honduran, Mexican, El Salvadoran , Guatemalan, or even Costa Rican dishes! You won't be disappointed!!! Street parking! Clean restrooms!

    It's rare that you find a restaurant that serves dishes across a coagulation of countries. Normally…read moreyou have Mexican restaurants, Cuban restaurants, Colombian restaurants, etc... - but this place is truly a Central American restaurant. There are dishes from practically every country in that region here. I imagine this feels like home for a lot of people. I'm not even from those countries and I still feel the vibe of being local. It's a place where the staff seem to recognize a lot of folks who come in and chat, and the people who eat here seem like they come here all the time. To start off, I had the pupusa, which was filled with chicharron and cheese. I've had pupusas in Costa Rica before, and this one was so much better than what I had there. It came out hot, leopard-spotted on the outside from the grill marks. When I cut it open, the inside was practically steaming. The melted cheese and chicharron were perfect together. The masa on the outside was fantastic as well. For my main dish, I had the pollo frito from Honduras. This was simply a behemoth. It comes out and you're like....woah. The scale is truly staggering. It consists of a quarter of fried chicken, served over a massive bed of fried plantains and pickled cabbage. It's covered in so much sauce you don't even see the chicken at the start. While cool, I'm ultimately mixed on this dish. The chicken is solid - the inside is juicy, but the outside doesn't quite retain its crispiness - due to the moisture from the sauce and pickled cabbage. It's also not really meaty - as it felt more bone than meat to me. The way the dish is presented makes it very difficult to eat with hand, but due to the bone, cutting with a fork and knife isn't great either. The positives were the plantains were really damn good though. Eating that with the sauce and cabbage was very addicting. I was able to finish the chicken - but half the plantains and the rest were still remaining. I think there's just too much other stuff on here. I was super full - but I can always make room for Tres Leches. And this one was huge - I was expecting a single slice, and I got a mini-tray of cake. It was really good - not one of the absolute best tres leches I've had - but done really well regardless. The cake underneath the frosting layer was soaked super well. I could only eat a bit before taking this home. I paid around 50 dollars in total, including tax and tip. Was certainly not super cheap, but the portion sizes are really high. The pupusas especially were an excellent deal. Overall, the main dish was a bit of a miss, but the pupusas, tres leches, and atmosphere makes me want to come back. 8.5/10
