Amazing Food & Service Despite Crowds
My experience at this restaurant on Halloween night was fantastic. Despite the line being around the block, the food was amazing and the service was great. The staff handled the nonstop orders incredibly well, and the food came out pretty quickly even with the crowds and long lines all night.
Thank you for the great food and service!

Great Late-Night Pupusas
I’ve been here twice after a late night, and it’s always packed. The food is really good, and even when it’s busy, the service is pretty fast for pupusas. They are open late and have a pretty good amount of seating even though it’s busy.

Loved the Experience and Pupusas!
I absolutely loved the experience and the food too. My friends who came from Spain undoubtedly loved the pupusas as well. Everything was very good.
We will definitely repeat this experience the next time we go to San Francisco.

Papusas were tasty, but not a must-return
My experience at this restaurant was decent, especially if you're in the mood for papusas! I particularly enjoyed the mushroom and garlic papusa, finding it quite tasty. We chose this spot for dinner and had an enjoyable time.
However, it wasn't an experience that would prompt me to rave about it. If we find ourselves back in the city, this restaurant won't be on our list of places to revisit for a meal.

Delicious Papusas, Odd Drink Policy
My experience at this restaurant was largely positive, especially regarding the food. I found the food to be delicious, and I particularly enjoyed the garlic and mushroom papusa. I've visited a few times, and the food is consistently good.
However, be prepared for a line as they are always busy. Tonight, I had a minor incident where I spilled my drink while waiting for takeout. I felt bad and asked if they could replace it, but they declined, which I found to be a rather strange policy.

Loved the food, parking is a challenge
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic, especially the food, which I rated a perfect 5! The parking situation, however, was quite difficult to navigate. I did find a park garage between 16th and Rondell, which was helpful.
Overall, the food was the highlight of my visit.

Fantastic Vegan Options & Great Service!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! As a long-time customer who went vegan a few years ago, I was thrilled to find they now offer vegan options. The quality remains excellent, even for my meat-eating friends.
I particularly enjoyed the soyrizo, which had a delightful spicy kick I loved. The other two vegan options were also delicious. The staff were kind and helpful, and there was plenty of cabbage and salsa.
It's great that they are open late with options for everyone. Please don’t gentrify Panchitas. ❤️
