Authentic central American, helpful and friendly service (bilingual), you can pick up or if you dine in. Their home made tortillas and their popusas are so delicious!

Excellent place for pupusas and central american dishes. Clean and fresh food. Staff is always nice and attentive. They have a small shop at the entrance with sweets and savory snacks. Definitely a hole in the wall!

Salvadoran restaurant with pupusas and much more. The asada and al pastor pupusas were excellent - hot and delicious. They came with a salad that was like Cole slaw with a bite since it included jalapeno. There were many other dishes on the menu that looked inviting. Service was very good. Prompt and friendly. It took a while for the food to come out, but there were several groups/families ahead of me. They also had a flow of people coming in to pick up orders. The building isn't impressive from the outside. It was nicer inside though. There is password protected guest Wi-Fi. Lots of parking is available. Will be returning soon.

It's been a few years since I've been here, but I didn't leave a review until now. I love pupusas as much as I love tacos. This place definitely has some authentic and we'll priced pupusas and Salvadoran fare with amazing portions and very good taste. I had pupusas de queso, revueltas, and queso con loroco, and they were amazing. I also had a pork tamale, which was huge and tasted amazing. For desert, I had the plantain empanadas were really good. The server Leidy was amazing, friendly and very attentive. Overall an amazing place for Salvadoran food.

These pupusa’s are absolutely delicious! The menu is in Spanish, so look ahead and use a translator app if you are not proficient. The staff was so kind and patient with me as I stumbled my way through ordering. I got a beans and cheese (my favorite of this meal!) and a pork papusa (filled corn cakes) that were both filled to bursting with deliciousness. The fried plantains were caramelized and rich, complemented nicely by the crema sauce. I also tried the plantain empanadas which were custardy and sweet to end the meal. The seating is comfortable and there was plenty of it on a Thursday afternoon. The setting is very casual, much like a taqueria or fast food joint, but the food is anything but! If you haven’t tried Salvadoran food, this is a good place to start.

We came to Pupusas unexpectedly. I left thinking Salvadorian food could be the best food in the world. Caramelized sweet & creamy plantains with salty bean and sour cream sauces. Flayed, butter fried shrimp dusted with oregano. Cheesy Revuelta & Loroco pupusas, were loco. This place is busy on the weekends, so prepare for a little wait, but for us the service was friendly and fantastic. They may possibly have the cutest coffee cups in the world.
