Las Palmas Bakery & Pupusas

The Best Restaurants in Sacramento, Roseville, and Elk Grove | Eater SF

"Is anyone ever not, to some degree, in the mood for melty, meaty goodness stuffed inside a pillowy disc of lightly fried masa? As pupusas, the popular Salvadoran dish, claim more space in the American food landscape, now is as good a time as any to pay a visit to Las Palmas in South Sacramento. Like the best-kept secrets of many cities’ restaurant scenes, it’s hidden in a strip mall, and while the restaurant hasn’t posted to its Instagram page since September 2020, its high-quality pupusas prove that word of mouth really can carry a business. For the newly initiated, start with a pupusa revuelta, which has refried beans, crunchy chicharrones, and gooey cheese inside, and a queso con loroco, with cheese and an herb commonly grown across Central America." - Tamerra Griffin
