my food had hair in it and it took hours for my food to come. its ok just my torta had hair in it

This is my first time for Salvadoran and papusas. This is a fairly plain and simply decorated location that serves the Latino community as we were the only non Latin people here today. I ordered the steak and chicken papusa along with the shrimp plate. The papusas were very good. Great flavor and lots of meat. The beans were some of the best I have had and the rice was very good as well. Food is not served quickly but it is fresh. read more

Las pupusas parecían hechas un día antes y muy gruesas de orilla. Terminé de comer y la mesera nunca llegó con mi bebida.

1 hora de espera para recibir nuestra comida, no vale la pena We waited an hour to get our food for take out it is definitely not worth waiting that long for some food I came in craving some pupusas and just left frustrated . read more

So I've been in Bentonville for a couple of months, living out of a hotel (i.e., eating out all the time), and I will hands down say this one of my top three restaurants in town. It's not fancy by any stretch, and yes - service can be very slow (not sure what that's all about...), but the food is outstanding, and there many excellent options to choose from. My favorite item is the shrimp pupusa - a couple of these would make a filling meal for $4 (!), with plenty of shrimp. It's incredibly savory, and unlike the other pupuserias around town, the one served here isn't greasy at all. Other great items are the shrimp a la diabla, chicken ranchera, carne de rez, and all of the fried snapper plates. Thick, Salvadorean-style handmade tortillas come with most meals, and it's hard not to leave here stuffed. Reading the other reviews, it's apparent this would have a 5* overall rating if they could sort out their service issues (for what it's worth, I've , at least found them to be quite friendly), so here's hoping they're able to do that... read more

I love the pupusas here, they always come out hot and fresh! For $2 or less, you can't beat the options as a snack or meal. When I'm in the mood for puposas, this is my go-to spot. read more

Best pupusas I've so far in Rogers. I have tried many in the are and we always go back to this restaurant. Service is questionable sometimes but overall pretty good. read more

Pupusas are delicious, we tried 4 different types. Fresh water "maracuya flavor" was good, first time trying Marañon fresh water-it was okay. I recommend this place. read more

Pupuseria No.1 - Shrimp In Garlic Sauce - Salvadoran Near Me - Rogers, Arkansas

Yum! Have you tried pupusas? So many fillings to choose from you're sure to find one you love! Cheese, beans, beef, chicken pork and combinations! ooo and they have HOMEMADE horchata (rice drink) Yummy!!!! They give you a couple of kinds of hot sauce/salsa type stuff - which are very good! Great service! Prompt, courteous and willing to answer questions! I only dinged them a star due to the dive / hole in the wall decor and pretty uncomfortable wooden bench seating... but it's totally worth a little discomfort to get fab food!! read more

no valen verga no atienden bien a la gente y se tardan demasiado e incluso aveces ya llevas más de una hora esperando y te salen con que no tomaron tu orden un asco la atención... read more

I got there at one on a Wednesday and waited an hour for my food. I watched other people get their food. I never received mine.

The food is really good, authentic. BUT they take FOREVERRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! The service is alright, not the best. For sure if you're in a rush don't even think about it read more

Worst service ever we ordered to go payed and sat down to wait, people walked in after us that got their food before us they took an hr to give us our food and still missed some stuff in our order I'm never going their again food is net even that great not worth the time waisted. read more

This was my first trip to this restaurant and my first time at a Salvadorian restaurant. The food was decent enough but not great. For all of the "gringos" out there (like me) Salvadorian food is different than it's Mexican counterpart. Fortunately I was with the love of my life and she gently led me through the menu. I had the chicken tamales which were good enough but not great (I prefer Mexican tamales). BUT.....what got this rating what it did is that the service was TERRIBLE! I could go on and on about the terrible service but I will give this review much less time than they gave me. I always like supporting local businesses but this one would be tough fo me to stand behind. read more

Food is tasty if you can wait for it. They take forever even when you call it in. Also, they don't have a toilet seat in the women's restrooms, I've tried this place twice in the last month and still no toilet seat C'MON! read more

Met a group of friends here who frequent the place. They love it and I was excited to try it. Customer service was great - helpful and friendly. My first time I ordered the asada & pollo sopes and loved it. We also tried two pupsa's - chicken & cheese and jalapeno & cheese, both good! The second time I went I ordered the asada sopes, tamales and the empanada de platano, and loved all. I recommend this place! read more

Hoy tuvimos la experiensa mas mala del mundo este lugar es el peor lugar q yo e comido el servicio es fatal las meseras son groseras insolentes mal educadas no tienen idea de cómo aten tender a la gente y se molestan por todo no purdes ni poder agua q mal lugar nunca vallan a ay son las peores personas q pueden atender un negocio la comida esta mas o menos pero el servicio es terrible y deberían correr a las meseras mas flaca y fea de ay es una grocera o read more

Horrible wait time even when ordering through the phone. This happens every since time. They told me my order would be done by 7:30 and I've been here waiting for so long. At the time of this review it's 8:05 and no one has told me about my order and I'm sure I'm going to wait longer. The food is fine but the wait is terrible. If you're in a rush please don't bother wasting your precious time here. read more

Good food good service. Highly suggest not coming when already starving wait times for food to come are a bit long but worth the wait as food comes out hot and fresh. Family of 5 ate for $48 suggest ordering ahead of time as well and tell them you will be dinning in and that'll cut our wait time down. Their fresh house made waters are great in taste as well. Personal favorite was "sope de Asada" also suggest their "pechuga en crema" read more

Esta mañana llame para hacer una orden. La chica que me tomo la orden era extremadamente ruda, cuando pedi hablar con alguno de los dueños ella me respondio que ellos no poduan hacer nada. Que las meseras eran las unicas encargadas, cancele la orden y no importo perden un cliente. read more

Great place with good food. Did go in and get take out a few weeks ago, and they warned it would be 20 minutes because they were busy. Well an hour later we got the few pouposas we ordered and left. In the hour we sat waiting, we asked a few times for our food and was told it was coming. I did however see several others come in after us, order and leave before we did- even sit down customers! Not a good service experience at all! read more

I've been to this place about a half-dozen times and they are pretty consistent about their food, ambience, and service. It's a divey, casual type of place. The inside has plenty of booth and table seating. The interior is a bit run-down, and it's pretty much a hole-in-the-wall. So what do I love about this place? Their shrimp pupusas! Damn, they are good! I've also had their steak/asada pupusas, which are my 2nd favorite. I've not really tried much else. The pupusas come out with cabbage slaw and a couple of bottles of hot sauce; medium and hot. The prices are really cheap; two of us ate for $10. What are some areas of improvement? Well, the timing. This is not a place I'd recommend you go to if you're on a limited time crunch or you've got a 1-hour lunch. I work down the street and went during my one-hour lunch break and barely had enough time to eat. The servers are very nice and courteous, but it's pretty slow getting things back from the kitchen. So, just be aware of it. I've came here with a large group of people, about 15 or so, and they were able to accommodate us with no issues. This is my go-to place for pupusas, they are hot, fresh, and delicious. If you're wanting to try something a little different, definitely a place to consider. read more

The only reason I gave this restaurant one star is because you have to give them at least one star to post something. Place was completely empty except for three tables with children yelling and running and screaming and no adult supervision. Everybody had their cell phones out to include the staff playing different music at 120 decibels over the house music. I ordered something very simple three pupusas rice and beans 35 minutes later my drink is empty no food and the girl came by and asked is my food coming and her response was would you like to wait for your food or do you want to leave now? read more

So to be fair, I only went in for pick up. But let me describe the place. It's pretty big for a hole in the wall type of place. They do have tvs and plenary I parking. They are located next to the Aldi store. There are many tables and the servers are nice. They do take to go orders. They also use tablets to take your orders and they do take debit and credit cards. The food is decent and reasonably priced. For an horchata, about ten pupusas, an order of fried cassava, it was about $25 bucks. read more

Foo is excellent. Taste is awesome . My only concern is the service is kind of slow. But always the waiting is wort it.

Lunch for Two Usual hole in the wall kind of place. From the outside, it looks like real estate office. If you don't know what pupusas are, you'd never walk in. Its a little run down inside but okay. First let me talk about the food. It is made as fresh and is pretty good. My favorite was the fried yucca and tostadas. It is also very decently priced. Here's the Bad side: We walked in and sat down. Got our menus a few minutes later. Drinks came first and then we ordered. It took 45 minutes to get our food.....FORTY FIVE MINUTES for 2 of us!! FORTY FIVE minutes for $15 worth of food. We watched people who came in after us get food first. We asked our server if our food was coming and she said she would check and then explained that the people who got their food first had called in earlier for it. I understand that helps get their food faster, but it does not explain why we had to wait 45 minutes for 2 plates of food while the place was not even a full house. I am very disappointed in the service. After reading other people's reviews, I can see it is a common thing. There is no excuse for that long of a wait unless you killed the cow for my meal. read more

Horrible service, the girls are rude af and one time they took over 45 mins to bring food that should have been cooked already. So we left the restaurant. We came again and we literally had to call them over so they could attend us. I'm sure they remembered us from the last visit. Don't come here unless you want to be attended rudely. read more

This is my favorite Salvadoran restaurant by far! Be prepared to wait a long time for your food, staff is unfriendly and you can tell there's always tension within coworkers other than that the food is amazing read more

I really wanted to love this place. It's in a small strip mall with lots of parking. Other reviews mentioned long wait times, but we were served rather quickly. They had a good sized menu, but I had to try a pupusas. I had asada and queso and then a pork tamale. The pupusa was good, but not great. I wanted a little more flavor to it. The tamale was a huge let down. It had one piece of pork in the middle and tons of masa. I did love the prices were low. I'll probably give it another try. read more

Their pupusas as the best! They also sell great "caldos" and breakfast. They make their own tortillas and you truly feel like you're eating homemade food. I always visit this location when I travel to Arkansas. The only reason I'm giving them a two is because the wait time is horrendous - the worst I've ever experienced anywhere. If you visit this place, plan on waiting 1-2 hours to get your food. read more

Absolutely abysmal service. We were not immediately seated when we walked in. We stood there awkwardly for a few minutes even though there were several servers around who were not immediately engaged. Once seated they were quick to come take our drink orders and bring us our drinks. We immediately placed our order, which was basically a bunch of appetizers: fried yucca, fried plantains, pupusas. At this point they started to completely ignore us. Our table was immediately in front of the cook/server entrance where they went in and out of the kitchen yet they never asked us if we wanted to refill our drinks or spoke to us in over 30+ minutes. Several orders were brought out for other people who had arrived after us and for to-go orders. At this point we called over a waiter and explained that I had to go into work soon and I was running out of time. She said that they had taken a lot of to-go orders over the phone and that our food was not yet being cooked. She said it would be at least 10 minutes more. She didn't apologize and didn't seem concerned. We decided to just leave because I was running out of time. It was a terrible experience and I am not planning on coming back. We did not even get to try the food. They should change the way they run things. read more

Food was good! Pupusas were tasty, I loved the zucchini and cheese! Would get again 10/10 however the service here isn't great. Being a server/bartender myself I expect to be treated as I would treat my guests. My server never really came over. I ordered everything at once and waited about 45 mins for my food. The girls were playing card against humanity and truth or dare in the booth right behind me. You know I get it have fun with your co workers but maybe do it in the back where your customers cant see you?? At the end of my meal I debated telling them but you know being service industry I had to. Told the girls that it was kind of rude for them to be playing games while I waited 40 mins for my food, which she responded with "Well one of the girls moms owns the returns" honestly it left a bad taste in my mouth. Still tipped them 20% because service industry. There were a total of 4 tables in the restaurant) and the table in front of me ordered way after me and got their food before me. Good food it's a shame for the not so good service. Order to go. read more

Every time we come see family at Arkansas we make sure to stop here!! Pupusas are soooo good very similar to the ones my family makes and they aren't so greasy. read more

Dirt cheap prices, good service, fresh and delicious pupusas. What's not to love? Don't let the hole-in-the-wall look scare you off. This place is awesome. read more

If you wanna waste your day here come by, i order 2 chicken sandwiches and they said it would take 25 min, when i came by i asked them how long its gonna take and they ignored me and continued to take out orders so i left horrible staff management. read more

Love this place. It has become a favorite of ours! Delicious, fast and always served with a smile! The best Pupusaria I have visited!

This place has an AMAZING menu and we tried quite a few items - all superb. Service was wonderful too. The decor is pretty typical of a pupusa place - and that's the way I like it. EAT HERE. read more

Food is good. Pupusas have a great taste. Now, since they make everything from scratch on each order, it does take more than the usual for the food to come to your table. If you are planning to eat in, take your time, or you can also call and pick up (but it is not that you call and can pick up in 15 mins). read more

I am a gringo addicted to pupusas, and today they were EXTRA GOOD! I'm too gringo for fiery hot food! Today I enjoy pupusas Frioles & queso, with wonderful mild cabbage, and the delicious mild sauce that comes with. I added chopped onions & cilantro side. I had not been to Pupuseria No.1 in two years. It was extra delicious for a very low price - Tipping the waitress well was very easy. read more
