Very clean and big spot for pupusas! Stopped for a quick lunch I was alone and normally don't get to stop here the family doesn't like this. So nice treat for me. Service was kind of awkward bc I didn't know what to do, they thought I was delivery person and not a walk in customer. However, I've been to them at their old location this was my first visit at their new location. It's really nice and clean. The pupusas were ok I just ordered the cheese and beans. I had plenty leftover so maybe just order one or two max. I would come back again when I'm in the mood for pupusa only as I didn't see that they offered any other foods. It's a small business so I always love supporting small businesses! If you haven't been here give it a try. read more

Went to a local Salvadoran spot and had a really good experience overall. The pupusas were solid, with a nice crispy texture on the outside and soft cheesy filling inside, and the food came out hot and fresh. The plantains were good too. The service was very friendly, parking was easy, and the whole place felt authentic with a nice crowd. Overall it was a comforting meal that hit the spot. I will be back to try more stuff soon! read more

For goodness sake! There should be a line waiting for their pupusas. Service is ok, you seat yourself and they bring you the menu. Ambiance is moderate no loud noise or music. You can enjoy the company you have. We ordered: Yucca and Chicharrón: 8/10 very traditional and what you expect. Corn tamales: I say it's like a 6/10- the center was cold still and not as soft as I would have expected it to be. Chechen tamale: 9/10 great all around, fantastic flavor and enjoyed every bite. Pupusas: OMG! Like I did not expect the garlic with cheese and spinach to be so delicious. The flavor covers every inch of your mouth! Amazing for sure 9/10. Shrimp and Cheese: also a great combo I say a 8.5/10 Revuelta: 10/10 Perfection! Just soft yet so filling and cheese everywhere! I love them. This is a gem!!! read more

Holy moly this place is so friggn good. And SO CHEAP! Just $3.50 for a pupusa. I couldn't stop grinning after eating here. A heads-up, their pupusas are HUGE. I thought it was tiny from the pictures but these bad boys are like 6-8 inches in diameter. You can't go wrong with any of them but I personally loved the jalapeño pupusa. When you come in, you can just find an empty table and one of the staff members will bring you menus to order. When you're done with your fabulous meal, you can go up to the cash register and check out. If you're a dope like me and don't speak Spanish, just point. The staff are so sweet and the atmosphere here is so lively with families laughing and enjoying each other's company. I will definitely be coming here more in the future. read more

Pupusas Dona Lola - Salvadoran Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

this is a beautiful spot with a wonderful selection of pupusa's, agua Fresca's, the service is so sweet and the owner Doña Lola was so kind to come say hello to me this restaurant transports you to El Salvador in a way of authenticity with its pupusa's and fresh Cortito and salsa de Salvador I had a wonderful time trying their rice pupusa's, which is something I haven't seen and other local Dallas pupusa Reyes the amount of Larocco they put in the pupusa was perfect for me. It wasn't too much. It wasn't too little. I thoroughly enjoyed trying their pupusa Loca, which includes Chicharron Salvadoran or pork, Salvador and beans, black beans, Larocco and cheese they even have pupusa's to go, and I love that they have a beautiful logoon their products. Love the cartoon of Doña Lola. It's very adorable. I give this place a 10 out of 10 this is because I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of my experience here I even brought some home to the family go here you wont regret it. I adore the way it feels like El Salvador and is very home-like restaurant feel. THERE IS A 15% SERVICE FEE for dining in. So please keep that in mind. Also at some points there is a woman who is a little sassy that works there. read more

Shocked that I could only find one mention of the 15% service fee added to every dine-in order. Though it is printed at the bottom of the menu, there's no explanation and they still ask for a tip when you pay. We've been here multiple times over the past few years and are usually happy with the taste and quality of the food (4 out of 5). Service is good, nothing special (3.5 out of 5). But we won't be coming back because we don't want to pay the service fee and then tip as well. Where does the service fee go? Do the servers get it? We could accept a small 3% fee for credit card purchases, but a 15% service fee is unreasonable. read more

Pupusas here are the best in Dallas! For the first time we tried some of the other entrees/ soup. Not as good as the pupusas. We will definitely be back because your pupusas are AMAZING! read more

I've been trying to find the best pupusas for some time and I decided to finally make my way to Pupusas Dona Lola. I attempted to place my order on their website but the site was down at the time, so I called in my order and got a spinach and cheese, bean and cheese and pork and cheese pupusa with extra curtido. By the time I arrived my order was ready. Everything looked and smelled so good, I liked that they provided a sufficient amount of curtido and salsa so extra curtido wasn't really necessary. My favorite pupusa was the spinach and cheese, I'd return for that one for sure but I didn't care for the flavor of the pork in the pork and cheese and the bean and cheese was good but nothing special. Since trying a few different pupusas around the metroplex, Dona is good but I've had better bean and cheese and pork and cheese pupusas elsewhere but that spinach pupusa is top notch in taste. The curtido and salsa was just ok, I wish the curtido had more spice to it and the salsa was on the mild side. Overall, I enjoyed the pupusas but it wouldn't be the first place I'd go If I was craving pupusas but I say still check it out. read more

Pupusas Dona Lola - Pupusas and marañon - Salvadoran Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

I tried both the pork and cheese pupusas as well as the shrimp pupusas at this restaurant. The portion was great! I couldn't eat more than too. I also tried the horchata, and it was sweeter than what I'm used to, so I couldn't finish the drink. The service deserves five stars as the staff checked up on us multiple times, ensuring we had a pleasant dining experience. One point to note is that water costs $0.50, and there were no refills. So, if you're planning to stay hydrated, keep that in mind. Despite that, the overall experience was great, and I would definitely recommend trying their delicious pupusas! read more

these were so good and so filling. we had 4 total pupusas, 2 shrimp and cheese and 2 beans and cheese. the slaw was yummy as was the accompanying sauce and it wasn't expensive. I had a watermelon agua fresca that was so refreshing. my only issue is they don't speak english whatsoever so gotta flex my duolingo skills when placing my order!! read more

I went to this place because my family is Salvadorian and it's hard to find good Salvadorian in our area. This place has really good Salvadorian food. The pupusas are delicious, definitely try it with the masa de arroz. Also they have tamales pisques! So good!! The service was so great, everyone was very kind and it's a great place to go to. read more

I'm gonna be honest with y'all, I've only ever had pupusas 3 times in my life. Given my lack of experience, I'm not even going to describe why these were better than the other 2 spots, but to me they were, and let's just say I will have had pupusas a lot more than 3 times before I die. Oh, and prices were cheap read more

Pupusas Dona Lola - Bean and cheese, shrimp and cheese, Pork and cheese. Can't tell which is which, but all delicious - Salvadoran Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

This review is based on Saturday at 12:30pm. The service was slow because it took one hour to have our food ready to eat. I had the breakfast platter with scrambled eggs, cream, cheese, purée of beans, and sweet plantain. I'm not a cheese lover person so the cheese was not a hit for me. The cheese was too full of taste that I did not like but that's just me. The sweet plantain was perfection! I hated the horrible service since I was starving. My sister ordered the pupusas and it was her favorite as she comes here often. She also mentioned this was the worse service she had at this place, maybe because it was during the weekend lunch time. I would go back here but at a different time. read more

Pupusas Dona Lola - Desayuno Salvadoreno - Salvadoran Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

Dine in price was purposely overcharged I wish I kept my receipt. Total was about 85 and split we aded a tip of 10 dollars. The receipt didn't mention tip was included. I go back to look at the menu to order again and realized I should have not been charged as much as I was the day I first visited. 4 pupusas 3 coffees 2 tilapia plates 1 horchata wasn't 85 dollars. Never dine in they will try to trick you about their prices. My receipt because it was split didn't have an itemized list of what we ordered just the split number of 42.22 which I thought was crazy should have questioned her input results. read more

Came here since my friend and I were craving Pupusas and they did not disappoint! The atmosphere is so clean and the staff was so helpful and friendly. We received quick service and ordered almost 1 of every Pupusas they had (tuna, garlic, zucchini, spinach, queso, camarón). Our standout favorites had to be the bean and cheese and garlic. (Embarrassingly enough) We went through about half the jug of curtido because it was so good and paired nicely with the pupusas, which are also pretty large themselves. I also recommend this for any vegetarian or gluten-free diners! When we asked they went to the back to check on the flour they use to make sure it was safe for me, which was so sweet. We'll have to go back to try some of their other dishes, they look fantastic! read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE! I love this place, all the popusas are great! Loroco is my personal favorite, and the curtido and sauce are amazing! Takes them a while to make (it's fresh!!) but worth it. Amo este lugar! Todas la popusas son deliciosas. Las de loroco son mis favoritas, el curtido y la salsa me encantan! Les toma un buen rato en cocinar las pero vale la pena porque están recién echas! read more

Very authentic, customer service was amazing. Staff are very friendly and welcoming, food was phenomenal and very very! Tasty

Very nice and clean restaurant! I went in and ordered lunch to go, the staff was kind and patient with me as I asked questions about the different papusas. I ordered one cheese, one pork and cheese, and a crazy papusa. They were served hot and fresh! They were sooo good! I also got the desert and it was also great! I can't wait to go back! read more

Been looking for a good pupusa place since I moved to Texas and I finally found my new favorite! We ordered revueltas and they are not stingy with their filling which I love AND the rice and beans are equally as delicious! We went on a Monday around 4pm and it wasn't too busy which was nice although I did notice they had a decent amount of take out orders and I was happy to see business was good for them. My only issue is that it's a little too far from where I live but I totally recommend it and will be back! read more

Phenomenal service and incredible food! We tried four different kinds of pupusa's and loved all of them.

This pace is alright. My family came from CA and one day we were wanting Pupusas we came here, ordered, and waited for 20 minutes. The pork/cheese was alright it smelled so strong to where I didn't want to eat it any more. read more

Where do I begin?! This little place is magical. Yuca- The pork with it is so delightful. Crispy outside and very flavorful Pupusas- Slight crunch on the outside and gooey center. We had the pork and cheese and bean and cheese. Corn tamale- We went with the fried suggestion with cream. Moist on the inside with pieces of corn throughout. Horchata- I love a good Horchata and there's is definitely in my top 3. Creamy with the perfect balance of cinnamon. The service is exceptional. They gave many suggestions and took the time to answer our questions even though they were packed. I will definitely be back! If your Spanish is a little rusty like mine, no worries, they speak English also. read more

Yikes. Very poor customer service. Placed an online order around 11am, for delivery at 1:45pm. Placed and paid for the order...and a little while later, I get an email (which thank GOODNESS I checked so that I could search for an alternative, since I was ordering food for my elderly father's lunch...)...saying that the order had been cancelled, with no explanation. No phone call, inquiring about the order and anything I may have done when ordering that would cause them to not be able to fulfill the order. It was disappointing, especially after reading how great the folks who run this ship are. read more

Delicious and authentic food! My Salvadoran mom loved it and didn't complain or compare lol

Pupusas Dona Lola - Salvadoran Near Me - Carrollton, Texas

There's just something so comforting about Salvadorian cuisine that makes me feel so warm and happy on the inside. I had a comfort food craving for pupusas and drove to the middle-of-nowhere part of Addison, but there is something great in the middle of that "nothing". Walking into the dining room you're sure to see families dining together over the table or one table talking to another. There's a nice sense of Salvadorian community here. I was definitely on the outside of the community but it can be expected since I don't speak the language or look like anyone else. I came here for one thing, pupusas. I knew before entering I wanted revueltas (pork and cheese) pupusas, an elote tamal (sweet corn), and platanos fritos with black beans and crema. It took quite a while for anyone to help me or even speak to me. I stood at the ordering counter for 10 minutes before I was acknowledged. I placed my order and was told it would take 20 minutes, and it did. Yes, that's a long time to wait, but the food was being made fresh. The food finally came out and was piping hot and smelled incredible. Once I got home and enjoyed my feast I couldn't have been happier. The pupusas were really incredible, and the cabbage slaw and sauce were excellent. I loved my tamal - it was huge and sweet. A little dry but I had crema so it helped out. The fried plantains were hypnotizing mixed with the beans and crema. The beans on their own were a bit bland but that's okay. Can't wait to try their food in-house and not to-go next time. read more

I have been looking for a good pupusa spot since I left New York. I've been here in Texas for 6 years now and all I can say is I am glad I found this spot. My parents were on vacation down here and decided they needed some pupusas. Having given up on the search, I googled a place near my job and found Doña Lola's. And I am glad I did! These pupusas brought back the authentic flavor of the ones I had growing up and I will most definitely be going back! Timely and great service! read more

Seriously the best find in Carrollton! I got the cheese pupusas and it's so delicious. Besides the taste, the price is great. You can have a filling lunch for a little over $5. The slaw that's at every table is the perfect complement to the pupusas. Definitely took about 3 scoops of that for each pupusas. As a note, this is a small place so finding a table may be difficult. You will have to seat yourself and pay at the front if this will be your first time going over there. read more

This was our first time having Salvadoran food, and the pupusas were fantastic! Almost like a soft corn tortilla pancake with fillings inside (meat is chopped up very small, and plenty of cheese), then there is something like a coleslaw at the table to put on them if you wish. The fried (sweet) plantains were also amazing. The service was excellent, head to the register when you are ready to pay, they keep your check up there until you are ready. Would highly recommend! read more

These are the most authentic salvadorean pupusas which make you feel like you are in El Salvador. The staff makes you feel like family. I have never enjoyed rice pupusas in my life but these we ordered extra to go!!! The horchata And all fresh juices are incredible.

No other place I eat pupusas at. I am Salvadorian American and my parents are super picky with where we get our pupusas at as well.... I have been coming here for years, everyone is super friendly and it might not be the glamorous place but the best Salvadorian food is found here. I love ordering the pupusas of bean and cheese and asp loroco with cheese. Tamales de elote are delicious , they sell Salvadorian quesadillas that are the best I've had as well... read more
