Delicious pupusas at a great price. We ordered take out, and my husband butchered all the words, but the waiter was very patient and even explained what some of the menu items were. Definitely make sure you get all the pupusas with the cheese. My favorite ones were spanish and pupusa de loroco. Will be back!

Alittle but too much masa but it's still tasty and not super greasy. Don't get me wrong though they're still greasy but not as bad as other places I tried. The salsa is not spicy for anyone who's wondering but it is on the watery side. The only thing that makes it up is the curtido. It's pretty good and fresh! Over it's a solid meal. They also made it up for me for the dirty coke can! Thanks that's means a lot!

Stopped in to order food to go. Fast service and waited about 10-15 minutes for the food. Ordered pupusas revueltas and pupusas de arroz con frijol y queso. Both were delicious and warm when we arrived home. Packaged well and came with plenty of curtido and salsa! Inside of restaurant was clean and very bright and welcoming. Parking is limited on the small shopping center its in.

Delicious delicious pupusas! Excited to go back and try the other items on the menu now. Please note it does take some time for the food to be ready, as everything is cooked fresh. I think long preparation time is also a cultural thing (I've encountered it at many el salvadorean restaurants). I'm not knocking any points off for this, you'll just need to adjust your expectations.
