I only ordered a jalapeno popusa but I got restaurant level service. We entered and got greeted, ordered, and got all the condiments brought to our table. Popusa was amazing and for its price! On top of that the staff continues to clean and ask if we need anything. Kept this place on the radar and will be coming back. read more

Impressive. Pupusas were so tasty and I loved the options - jalapeno cheese, loroco, revuelta, beans and cheese, chicken. They aren't stingy with the curtido or the salsas either. Service was stellar - they check in on your table often and even though you order and pay first they are very efficient and quick given how busy it is. Sunday was even busier but worth the extra wait. Ask for spicy chile de aceite for an extra kick. Fairly clean and ample seating. Nice wall decor around. read more

First time visiting this Pupuswria restaurant. Large indoor dining area and staff here are efficient. There's even a large TV on the wall so you can watch FiFA games. Overall it was easy to place my order but it took a long time to get my food. I had to ask the staff twice and they went back twice to check on my order. I got only the chorizo pupuseria and it was quite delicious. One order cost around $5 but it was quite large and packed with chorizo meat. The salsa they gave was quite delicious and paired well with my pupuseria. I even got a side of pickled cabbage but it wasn't to my liking so I skipped it. read more

Very good food, with great service! Definitely will recommend to my friends and family

I ordered queso y chicharron but mine were mushy... maybe they were revuelta and had beans in them? Nice place, lots of tables. They were pretty busy and said it would take 20 min but we got our order in 10 min. My son liked the carne asada. I loved that they had caldo and lots of other choices but if pupusas are on the menu, that's what I'm sticking with! read more

The pupusas here were really good. If I were rating based on the food alone, I would give this place 5 stars. However, I'm removing a star because the ordering and pricing information was not clearly explained. When I ordered, the cashier (who I believe may be the owner) did not clarify that there were different sizes or price options for certain items. Each time I ordered something, he automatically rang up what appeared to be the largest or most expensive option without explaining that there were alternatives. I only realized there were different sizes and prices after I had already paid and was leaving. When I tried to ask about the price differences, my question was ignored, which made the situation feel intentional and left me feeling uncomfortable about the experience. The food was genuinely great, but clearer communication about options and pricing would make the experience much better for customers. Español Las pupusas aquí estaban muy buenas. Si estuviera calificando solo la comida, le daría a este lugar 5 estrellas. Sin embargo, le quito una estrella porque la información sobre el pedido y los precios no fue explicada claramente. Cuando ordené, el cajero (quien creo que puede ser el dueño) no aclaró que había diferentes tamaños u opciones de precio para algunos artículos. Cada vez que pedía algo, automáticamente marcaba lo que parecía ser la opción más grande o más cara sin explicar que había otras alternativas. No me di cuenta de que había diferentes tamaños y precios hasta después de haber pagado y cuando ya me estaba yendo. Cuando intenté preguntar sobre las diferencias de precio, mi pregunta fue ignorada, lo cual hizo que la situación pareciera intencional y me dejó sintiéndome incómoda con la experiencia. La comida realmente estaba muy buena, pero una comunicación más clara sobre las opciones y los precios haría que la experiencia fuera mucho mejor para los clientes. read more

Pupusas were good overall, very cheesy and flavor was there, was craving pupusas and this was one of the closer ones to me as I live in corona, but I had not had pupusas since I moved out here from the San Fernando valley, and I have to say these were pretty solid pupusas I had the revueltas and jalapeño con queso read more

These are THE best pupusas in Riverside, maybe all of IE. They make them fresh, plenty of ingredients. I love the chicharron con queso pupusa and their chicken tamales. Highly recommend. Order online to avoid waiting as they make them fresh to order. read more

Best Salvadoran food in the area! The pupusas are delicious, generously sized, and the soups are flavorful with large portions. The prices are also much more affordable compared to Los Cherros in Riverside. The only reason I'm not giving Pupuseria La Sierra 5 stars is because of a few recent disappointments. I ordered an atol de elote, and it was extremely watered down--it tasted more like warm sweetened milk with corn kernels than traditional atol. I was very disappointed. I also ordered the sopa de gallina, and unlike the traditional Salvadoran style, the chicken was not grilled and served separately with a salad. Additionally, the yuca frita was very discolored and did not look appetizing at all. I think the restaurant may need to step up its game, especially now that there is new competition in the area. That said, I will continue to support this establishment because the food is generally very good and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. I'll just avoid ordering the sopa de gallina, yuca frita, and atol de elote in the future, as those items don't seem to be their specialties. read more

I've driven past here many times and finally decided to try it. I ordered pupusas revueltas. They are reasonably priced and they were a good size with sufficient stuffing for the price. They also offer the regular salsa and spicy salsa, the latter is not always offered at Pupuserias. My only complaint was that the pupilas were a bit salty for my taste, but other than that they were fine. I will come back to order from the rest of the menu, but so far... so good. read more

very delicious food but i feel like they need to explain when things have an upcharge. also if they see guests sitting at an empty table, it would be helpful to greet them and let them know how the ordering process works instead of having them sit there for a long time. a lot of people come in for the first time not knowing you have to order first and then sit down. very clean though and love the music read more

Was craving pupusas and came across this place on yelp. This place is big and you can have room to sit down and eat with your family. I ordered my food and it came out in 10 minutes. I got it to go, they gave me both sauces and pickled cabbage.. I'll give this place a 10 out of 10. Definitely coming back. read more

Besides homemade pupusas, these are the best in town! They are fresh and well stuffed. The service is always good and the ambiance is family oriented. The tamales de pollo and elote are soo good. We typically order a half dozen of tamales and pupusas and bring them home. Definitely a must try! read more

(3/5) I really wanted to give this place a higher rating because the food is actually really good. The pupusas are on point, flavorful, fresh, and definitely hit the spot. No complaints there. BUT... there's something I saw that honestly threw me off. They bring curtido to the table in a jar (cool, no problem), but when we were done, I noticed they take whatever is left and dump it back into a big container in the back to reuse. That means it's basically being shared between multiple tables. I'm not trying to be dramatic, but that's just not sanitary. Once food hits a table, it shouldn't be going back into circulation. It kind of kills the vibe knowing you might be eating something that's been on someone else's table already. If they fixed that, this place would easily be a 4 or even 5 star spot. The food deserves it, but cleanliness matters too. Just being real. read more

Hands down best pupusas served. Last 7 days, we've ordered 3x. Lol Highly recommend this spot. Pupusas are made larger than expected (a positive) and generously filled.

Food is NOT even close to a real authentic Central American Salvadorian Popusa or Quezadilla or even tamale. The masa is tasetless and meat (chicken ) is not seasoned well. The popusas are barely well seasoned. The biggest insult is the Quesadilla ( sweet bread) that's my favorite if done right! Well, big disappointment! NO TASTE EXCAPT SUGAR AND GREASE OIL! Not sure what but So gross!! And, the so call champuradas (COOKIES) are disgusting. WE spent almost $75 or more in a large order and got all that we like OF SALVADORIAN FOOD. But, I was and my family was dis!!!! Please Do Not Insult our food culture! if you don't know how to make it the way it TRULY is, just Don't do it!!! really bad! so upset! Never going there! read more

Be prepared to wait for hot fresh food that is quality. otherwise I would recommend to go and call it in. We had the bean pupusa which well seasoned / flavorful and you don't miss the cheese in it. I also asked for custom chicken and cheese pupusa that's fresh grilled chicken and was soooo good. I also loved the lírico and cheese. It's the holidays and we just ordered tamales . We will come back with our family. read more

Very popular locally. Pupusas were a bit oily, but great flavor (especially the jalapeño and the zucchini ones). Authentic. Fried plantains were perfect--sweet and crispy. Warning--should speak some Spanish. read more

My favorite pupusa is the loroco, and this is currently my preferred option in the area! I have only been once, but I ordered the Especial #1 (Pupusa, pastel, y empanada - I believe) and Horchata Salvadorean. The Salvadorean Horchata is interesting, with a more complex chocolate-like note. In the future, I think I will get a regular Horchata (de arroz), and I will get 2 or 3 pupusas (without anything extra). However, I certainly plan to return, and think my order was an excellent choice for a first visit! read more

Forgot to take pictures but the pupusa was amazing! Chicharron was bland but Yuka was fried very nice.

Once again there chicharron and bean pupuserias were on point and the service was excellent. Thanks again. We will be returning for some more in the near future with the family read more

Great food and great service. Their pupusas are really good. My wife and I get the pupusas con queso y jalapeño and frijol y queso and revueltas. We always love getting the plátanos too. Coffee is always good and we love the service. Kevin and the waitresses are really nice and attentive. One of the things that separates them from other places is that they have a regular salsa and a spicy one. The spicy one is so good! We highly recommend. read more

Used to bring my parents when they were alive because they LOVED it but the last time I came, the pupusas were too soft, not left on the comal long enough and they upset my stomach?? They were still delicious but not sure if they changed the recipe? read more

I like to write about restaurants that work hard on their consistency, service and fresh ingredients. This restaurant continues to delivers good food at good prices despite the current economy. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable, fast service , just remember, all salvadorean dishes take time to cook because is made to order , and this goes for any and all salvadorean restaurants, so if you are to hungry and in hurry just call ahead or order to go , and they will have your food ready by the time you arrive .Also , They keep the restaurant clean at all times , read more

First time ordering via Yelp/GrubHub at this location. My order was ready on time & hot! The revuelta, bean/cheese, and cheese pupusas were very good and the mild salsa for the pupusas was delicious- not spicy at all. We also ordered an ensalada and atole de Elote. The ensalada was very sweet, so I'm not sure we would get it again. However, the atole de Elote was perfectly hot and had a great flavor! Not too sweet or savory, it was a good balance. Perfect for a cold night. I would definitely go back to this restaurant just for the atole. read more
