I arrived around 3pm, and the place was about 45% full I ended up getting the carne asada because I wasn't familiar with most of the menu.

I left hungry Soda came in a can and was about $2.50

If you want quality pupusas, pop into this spot. Park out front and walk into a colorful space with…read moretables and a small bar. The owner is from El Salvador and worked in some of D.C.'s favorite restaurants like Le Diplomat and Jose Andres' restaurants. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but start with the pupusas made from either corn or rice flour. I personally loved the mushroom and spinach ones in corn flour and the pork with rice flour. The shrimp is perfectly grilled and the pupusas come out crispy and smooth on the inside. The shrimp tacos are worth getting too. This place is so inviting and warm. Come in as a stranger and leave family.

It came with the usual cabbage and sauce/salsa I enjoyed the chicken and pork the best. Since you can't get a bite of shrimp in every bite like you can with chicken and pork, the shrimp is my least favorite. The pupusas were really good, so much so I really didn't need the sauce or cabbage. But it was nice to have of course. The food is made to order of course so it took a few minutes. The staff here is really nice and even brought my order to the front door when I went next door to grab my pizzas! I'll definitely be back for more pupusas! Buen provecho!

I actually stopped in for something unexpected: a steak & cheese, which isn't my usual order at a Mexican restaurant. I went with a TikTok recommendation, and I'm glad I did. From the start, the experience was welcoming--the young woman who took my order was genuinely friendly and made a great first impression. The steak & cheese itself was a pleasant surprise: well-seasoned, flavorful, and thoroughly satisfying. The restaurant itself is small and unassuming, but it offers both dine-in and takeout options, making it convenient either way. Next time, I'll definitely be back to try one of their traditional Mexican entrées. Hidden gem vibes for sure.

My son is a picky taco eater so he got their asada tacos and he was impressed with how delicious it was. I also got a tamarindo to drink (they make their own special Latino drinks) it was one of the best I've ever had. The place is spotless and even the bathroom was meticulously clean.

We ordered the tacos al pastor, the birria tacos, shrimp tacos, and carne ones. They were all delicious!! The tortillas don't break up, they have a lot of filling and the seasoning is so so good. I wish I'd taken pictures of them, but they didn't last long! Too good. The sauces that came with them were great too! The margaritas are so good, you need to be careful not to drink them too fast haha. My favorites were the peach margarita and the tamarindo one. However, the mint and cucumber one was super refreshing, and if you're feeling adventurous I recommend trying one of the jalapeño ones! It is spicy though. My friend couldn't handle it and that's why I ended up drinking it. It was really good! The ambience is great too. The owner personally greats everyone when he's there, the waiters are really friendly and make sure to check in regularly to make sure you have everything you need! Overall, the place is great for a laid back lunch or evening, with yummy food and drinks! I hear they have karaoke nights too. Not sure when... I'll definitely have to try it out. Fully recommend!

Since I'm working near La casita, I decided to give the pupusas a try and I gave it a 5 stars because I love how their pupusas are evenly made. They are so perfect! This is my second time purchasing some. I will be back and recommended to people this place.

Found this spot through Yelp and after reading all the great reviews, I decided to give it a try…read more One encouraging sign when I first walked in was that the place was pretty full, which told me I came to the right place. I ordered three chicken and cheese pupusas, and they were a great size. I was nearly full after the first two. The flavor was on point. My apologies for my photo because I was already halfway through my third pupusa before I remembered to snap a picture. I also tried the corn tamale, which my wife and I enjoyed a lot. On top of that, I ordered a steak taco, which unfortunately didn't make it into a picture either because I ate it too fast. What stood out to me was the "shell." Instead of the usual flour or corn tortilla, it uses the same masa dough as the pupusa, and I really enjoyed that difference. We finished our meal with the nuegados en miel dulce, something I had never tried before. I was glad I did because it was delicious and a great way to end the meal. Overall, the food and experience were excellent. If you are like me and rely on Yelp reviews to decide where to eat, I highly recommend giving La Casita Pupuseria & Market a visit. You will be well pleased like I was.

Could it be? Someplace where I love the papusas AND the tamales?!…read more I was craving chicken tamales and stumbled across La Familiar...and wished that it could've been sooner. They put a generous amount of chicken that had this delicious red sauce on it. Not sure what it's called but I loved it. They were thick, hot, and spiced beautifully. The elote tamales were, in a word, impeccable. They offered a fried option which was surprisingly delicious. The steamed ones set the bar pretty high yet here we are. Meeting and exceeding. You have the option of w/wo crema. The papusas were fluffy, filled just enough, and came with interesting fillings. I'm used to seeing pork, bean, and cheese. They offered squash (a touch of sweetness), bean and mint (literally blown away with how much I love this), and chipilin (adore). For context, Chipilin tastes like spinach and watercress had a baby. I noticed the cheese having a slight tang, but it wasn't off putting. Just different than other places I've tried. My only "gripe" (if you even want to call it that) was the curtido. It tasted good but something was off. Not off enough where I would avoid it, but it just wasn't the same. This is coming from someone who is extremely picky about that condiment. Not too fond of cabbage so maybe that's why. Now, the best for last...PASTELITOS! These amazing little pockets of happiness are stuffed with either chicken or beef and OMG OMG OMG. Every bite was pure happiness. It kinda reminded me of kibbeh. The handmade tortillas were amazing the next morning with some eggs and ricotta salata. So, if you're deciding on where to eat today, tomorrow, or next week...come here. I promise there will be something you love :D

That said, the service here is WAY better- not slow at all, they actually check on you and still use real plates (our place has gone to those paper baskets that they serve like burgers and fries in, which is fine but ...yeah!). In any event, the portion sizes are good and the slaw is awesome, we never have issues with the service but parking can be tight when they're packed. Overall solid and affordable pupusa option.
