"Panchita's is home to some of the city's best pupusas, and it's been that way ever since this spot opened in the Mission over three decades ago. The Salvadoran counter-service spot serves pupusas packed with beef, chicken, or pork, each oozing with cheese that forms crispy edges around the griddled masa. Their two-pupusa deal includes a pair of your choosing, plus fresh curtido and salsa—the ideal lunch that's hearty without being overly filling." - julia chen 1, lani conway, patrick wong
