    What you need to know: Extra busy - we walked in and it took over 45mins just for 6 pupusas - tons of people called in and picked up their order so that's the way to go. The pupusas are decent enough, big portions and will satisfy your craving. Workers are wearing masks which was a nice change to most spots nearby - most customers (those not eating) weren't despite the sign on the door however. Came here on a whim as we had a craving and other usual spots were closing. Their menu isn't displayed so it's a little difficult to order, but you can manage. This spot gets super busy with most people calling ahead, so if you don't want to wait forever, cal before you order. Food: We got 6 pupusas, 2 de chorizo, 2 de asada, 1 de jalapeño, and 1 de pollo. The pupusas are huge and have great flavor. They weren't as crispy as I'd like and fell apart very easily. They definitely had too much masa as I prefer mine a little thinner and crispier, but they did satisfy the craving and 3 was a LOT. We were definitely extra full after. The asada ones had plenty of steak that was cooked perfectly - not too well done, and still tender - definitely my favorite. The chorizo were a bit oily, but that's to be expected. The jalapeño was spicy, but nothing special. The pollo seemed decent, but we've had way better. They came with bags of curtido and salsa roja as is customary. The salsa roja was decent enough, but a little blander than others I've had. The curtido though was the real star here - I couldn't stop eating it! Perfectly pickled and crunchy - the perfect compliment to the pupusas. The salsa roja coming in a bag was extra inconvenient though, but they did give a lot. Price: At around $13 for 6 pupusas and a jarritos, you can't go wrong. Exactly as I'd expect to pay. No complaints here. Service: This was lacking, and we had to wait forever for our order as we watched everyone else get theirs. But with that in mind, the authentic places never have great service, so I didn't have high hopes to begin with. Call before you come if you don't want to wait. They speak limited English, but understood our limited and broken Spanglish just fine. Overall, this wouldn't be my first spot when I get a craving, but they're definitely decent enough to satisfy a craving especially since they're open later than any other pupuserias. Docked a star as these pupusas were solid, but nothing to make me come back for them, and the wait was way too long. I would come back just for their curtido though.

    Delicious authentic pupusas. Great price. Very stuffed. The tamales are tasty as well. I have not tried their pan dulce yet but will.

    Good food and prices, Make sure you know how to speak Spanish when you're ordering because they speak Spanish

    We got there at 9pm Saturday 26 after a 3hour drive from south carolina! We got a table right away…read moreand our server recognized my wife and I from previous time we have been there. Right of the bat that is awsome. She made us feel at home right away. She was not a robot but rather chatting with us about our drive thanking us for coming by and talking with us like we where home. When we where ready she took our order never pushed us to order She let us take our time. Andrea is incredible!! Her customer service is really above and beyond what you would expect. She is the reason we go back!! Yes the food was awsome but its all about the service. Thank you Andrea for making us feel at home. This is something that needs to be recognized by the people in charge. We will be back. Like always the place is awsome great ambiance!!

    I ordered a takeout dinner. The restaurant is one of several in the building on Buford Highway and…read morethe parking lot was nearly full. It was early so the dining room had only two or three occupied tables and no one at the bar in the back yet. I was greeted immediately and waited a short time for my order to be ready. All the way home I could smell delicious odors from the bag! I ordered Churrasco de Entrada which is grilled skirt steak with chimichurri sauce and two sides. The steak was amazing! Tender, juicy, melted in my mouth. I had grilled vegetables and baked potato for sides. The vegetables were a mixture of broccoli, cauliflower, pea pods, carrots, and zucchini. They were cooked well and flavored with garlic. The foil packet of potatoes contained three small round potatoes also perfectly cooked through not seasoned at all. The meal came with three small dinner rolls and a few packets of butter. Everything was flavorful and delicious; garlic was quite strong though which I loved but might not be everyone's liking. I also ordered Alfajores from the bakery section for dessert. These are little sandwiches with soft shortbread cookies on the outside and soft dulce de leche and coconut filling between them. Four came in the box. This meal was at least two servings for me and it was a wonderful experience. I look forward to eating in the restaurant next time.

I was greeted with a smile and placed an order for an empanada combo. I tried beef, cheese and chicken empanadas. The beef was my favorite. But the others were delicious and my family loved them. The sweet plantains were perfectly cooked. I wished I'd ordered more. The place is just so cute! They have a full variety of Cuban coffee and other sandwiches that I'll be back to try.

Ordering is simple; you can order at the counter or use one of the kiosks. Once your food is ready, they bring it directly to your table. I also appreciated the self-serve stations for sauces, water, utensils, and to-go boxes. I'm usually not the biggest fan of Cuban cuisine, but was in the area and decided to give it a try anyway. I was pleasantly surprised. Everything I ordered was better than expected. I went with the Combination Sampler, which is great if you want a little taste of everything. It came with a chicken empanada, papa rellena, fried yuca, ham croquettes, sweet plantains, and tostones. Overall, everything was prepared nicely. The only item I wasn't crazy about was the chicken empanada, which tasted a little plain and dry on its own. However, once paired with the sauces, it was much better. Speaking of sauces, they offer plenty of options at the sauce station. My favorite was the creamy cilantro sauce, which paired well with almost everything. They also had ketchup and mayo; perfect for dipping the crispy yuca fries. Along with a spicy sauce that definitely brought the heat. My go-to Cuban dish is usually a Cuban sandwich, but I didn't get a chance to try theirs this visit. Based on the rest of the meal, though, I'd definitely come back for it next time.
