Great Pupusas, Tasty Tamale
My experience at this no-frills Salvadoran restaurant was centered around their pupusas, which were well-priced at 2 for $8. 40 and generously filled. I also tried the sweet corn tamale with crema as an appetizer, and it was pretty tasty.
The food received a high rating of 5, while service and atmosphere were rated a 3.

Hair in my food, ruined my appetite
I just placed an order from that place and found a hair in the bag. It was a bit disgusting and made me feel like they weren't careful. It completely took away my appetite, especially since my hair isn't that color.

Unprofessional Service and Wrong Orders
On 7/26/24, I was highly dissatisfied with this restaurant's service. This isn't the first time they've provided such an unprofessional job. They charge $5 for one little piece of fried dough with banana and, on top of that, they overcharge and get orders wrong.
Today, I ordered 3 orders of 2 pupusas for $9 and was charged for 3 orders but only received 3 pupusas when I was supposed to receive 6. They constantly do this when it's almost time to close, but we pay for the food, so the least they can do is give us the right amount.

Delicious Popusas, Family Favorite!
My favorite place for myself and my family, especially my son, are the Popusas. I like the texture and that they are not made too greasy. 100% recommended.

Delicious Food, Friendly Staff!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The food was so good that I didn't even have time to take pictures because I "inhaled everything. " The staff was incredibly friendly, and the bathroom was big, clean, and accessibility friendly.

Authentic Homemade Food, Great Value
My experience at this restaurant was great! The food is totally homemade, and the pupusas were very good. I especially loved their beef fajitas dish.
The place is small, but the food and prices are acceptable.

Amazing Salvadoran Food and Service!
I had an amazing experience today during lunch. I was really craving pupusas 🫓 and they did not disappoint. I also ordered another plate with chicarrón and yuca, which was fire!
It was my first time trying a Salvadoran plate that truly blew my mind with its taste. The bathroom was clean and the atmosphere was great. Additionally, the attention from the staff was amazing; they were very kind and consistently checked on me.
I loved this place and will definitely be coming back!
