By far, this is my favorite place for pupusas! The pupusas are consistently delicious, and I also…read morehighly recommend their horchata and tamales de elote. Their huevos rancheros are another favorite of mine and are always satisfying. I've brought several friends and family members here over the years, and every one of them has enjoyed the food. If you're looking for authentic, flavorful pupusas, this is definitely the place to visit. Just keep in mind that the food is made fresh, so there can be a bit of a wait. In my opinion, it's absolutely worth it. The owners are also warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind, which makes the experience even better.

I should have ordered ahead as it appeared many people did. None the less I am very happy with the wait! The service was great and they were very helpful with recommendations. I feel like pupusas are meant to be kept simple and they mean a lot to me. They are made to order and you can tell by the quality. The Revuelta has a lot of delicious fat and salt from the pork. It's a grounded pork. It combines really well with the beans and cheese. It has a very unique flavor profile. I can see why it's so popular. The Frijol and Queso was my absolute favorite. SO creamy!! I love the thickness of the maiz. And it wasn't too oily! My favorite part was the cabbage salad. It is slightly fermented. It kind of resembles a very very mild kimchi or sauerkraut. Super flavorful and bright. I thought the bag of red sauce would be spicy but it's actually quite sweet. It pairs perfectly with the pupusas. It is tomato based. I always feel very healthy after eating El Salvadoran food. I especially felt great after eating here. The quality and balance is all there.

I wouldn't be surprised if people stop coming here simply because the staff is so unwelcoming.

So the guy told me they were cook in the morning and I was there like 7:30 p.m so I told them that please give me another order or nuegados cause those taste fresh and he told me that the plantain where in the order so I have to pay them . I ask the guy where is a manager or owner and he act like didn't heard me . I told him I will pay them but I don't want them , then the guys was happy about it ? But this is sad to pay for a food that it tastes like old bananas or plantain. it was a really sad experience . They don't want to be responsible for a bad food they sale ? Is our money , our hard work , and if we desire to try something that you don't cook at home , it should be worth your money right ? I feel very disappointed and sad . I think I will never go back to that place ! My apologies to the owners of this place but the guys that works there don't care about making people feel happy about your food . They don't care about clients , they just want to make their hours and leave . I hope they make it better one day . We are Salvadorian and we should be more kind to people . We are human beings you know ! So sorry for saying all this but it has to be said . Thank you

The food is always packaged well and still warm by the time I get home. The bean and cheese pupusas are a 10/10, perfectly cooked, flavorful, and generously sized. The curtido is the perfect complement and really brings the whole meal together. The caldo de res is another standout. The portion is large enough for two meals and comes with all the traditional accompaniments, including freshly made tortillas. If you're looking for authentic comfort food and great value and sweet attentive owners, this place is definitely worth a visit.

Amazing Salvadoran Experience in Santa Ana!…read more I had one of the best meals I've had in Orange County at this Salvadorian spot! From the moment I walked in, the aroma of authentic pupusas and traditional dishes made my mouth water. Every bite was bursting with flavor -- the pupusas were perfectly handmade, fresh, and cheesy, and the tamales were rich and satisfying. The portions were generous, and the prices were more than fair for the quality of food you get. The staff were welcoming, attentive, and truly passionate about the food they serve. It's clear they care about giving customers a real taste of Salvadoran cuisine -- I'll definitely be coming back soon and bringing friends to share this hidden gem. Highly recommend if you love authentic Latin flavors and great service!

We were looking to try their menudo but unfortunately they had already ran out by the time we came in. Instead, we ordered their pozole and 2 eggs with 2 tamales combo (chicken in green sauce and pork). Their combo comes with rice and beans and choice of salsa. We also ordered a cheese and rajas tamal on the side. The cheese and rajas tamal was my first bite and it was delicious. If you've never had tamales with eggs, you're missing out. This is an elite mixture. Their rice was also very tasty and not overly seasoned like other places do. Their pozole was really good too. The meat was falling off the bone and the portion was just right. After finishing their food, we ordered three more tamales: beef, another chicken with green sauce, and another cheese and rajas. Our favorites were the chicken, rajas, and pork. Our hearts and tummies were happy. The people working there were so warming and inviting and kept making sure we didn't need anything else. We also tried their jamaica (hibiscus) and horchata drinks. You can taste that the horchata is homemade. Unlike most Mexican joints, the horchata wasn't overly sweet, which I appreciated. You definitely need to try this restaurant. I know I've found my go to tamal place.

Hidden gem for tamales! The last time I ordered tamales from here was back in 2021 during Covid. I…read morealways knew it was in Orange and I happened to be in the area so decided to give it a try. It's located in a strip mall and nicely updated inside. I originally had my mind set on an elote and pork tamale, but they were out of elote so I decided to try a breakfast burrito and pork tamale. - breakfast burrito has beans, rice, chorizo and egg and was good. It paired well with the salsa included. - pork tamale - just as I remembered - their tamales are the best in the area. Nice and juicy and full of flavor. It's a party in your mouth. I think the one thing that won me over was the kindness of the gentleman taking my order. He was helpful and humble. I'll be back - but next time I'll order my elote tamale in advance.

Found this place a little while back and honestly so glad that I did…read more Food is fresh. Quite an eclectic menu with items I don't typically see at other places. They have the huitalacoche (corn fungus) quesadilla that I really enjoy as well as their pupusa loroco y queso. Trying out their Lengua taco and taco jaracho which I have been eyeing for a while. All their food is tasty, made fresh. All bursting with flavor. Salsa bar is probably one of my favorites having literally a salsa made for every kind of taste bud. Don't let the small restaurant deceive you. Small restaraunt but with bit flavors. The tortilla made with the quesadilla is nice and soft but with a good chew to it. Tastes like a homemade corn tortilla versus flour. The cheese is rich and has a wonderful pull to it. The lengua is extremely tender, little skimpy on meat portion, but overall good taco. The jarocho taco which is basically a shrimp taco on a cheese crusted tortilla is excellent. Service is what you would expect at a ma and pop shop. The cashier was patient enough to explain to me what a jarocho taco was and also spoke English which was nice for me. Last time I dined I just used butchered Spanish and got by with that but thats on me with practicing more Spanish.

Cir todo (cabbage salad) for the pupusas is good with just the right amount of oregano. Hot sauce is awesome... it might only be puréed guajillo pepper....

The chicken is freshly fire grilled and served on the side with the other ingredients for the soup. Plenty of parking at the HB location. There are prices on the to-go menu.
