Easy 5 stars across the board here. Honestly I'm not normally a fan of pupusas because I generally dislike bread, tortillas, naan, etc. But I highly suggest getting the lunch special - i got some really tasty carne, and a delicious roasted jalapeno... AND my choice of two pupusas. This is a really cool dive spot, playing good music and high quality food. Can't wait to get some more next time I'm in the area!

Extremely delicious and authentic food and this local restaurant. Highly recommend the appetizer platter, gets you a wide variety of options. Pupusa's were delicious, great flavor and perfectly made. Wonderful place, highly recommended.

This is an honest place for tasty, good quality, home made food. My favorites are the yucca frita with chicharrón and the horchata. Super tasty. I loved the way this restaurant has designed a variety-combo plates with a great value. I wish they offer other salsas that are not hot. Several tables outside to enjoy the food. I didn't see restrooms or a portable potty. Parking was fine but requires a kind of sharp turn from the street.

Food was very authentic but needed more salt/seasoning, all toppings/sides were very fresh!!! Pickled cabbage slaw was to die for!!!!! Pineapple auga fresca was amazing as well! Horchata delicious!!! Only 1 server spoke english there so it was kind of difficult to order but well worth a good experience!!!!

Absolutely delicious food. Staff is amazing. Carne Asada - 5/5 Chicharron y Queso Pupusa - 5/5 The Carne asada plate is phenomenal. Super juicy, perfectly cooked steak. Fresh ingredients, and the rice is equally amazing. The pupusas are incredible. Fresh, warm, gooey, cheesy perfection. This place is a hidden gem.

Yummy!!! We're 2 Hispanics from out of town & love Salvadorian food! The mixta popusas was SOOOOO bomb! We've had other places and not as delicious & soft. The curtido has a wonderful bitterness & the sauce is the right amount of spicy. I also had the chicken flautas & umm buddy.. 😋 plenty of chicken thick taquitos & crunchy. Comes with a nice combo of veggies & a dressing like sauce. The empanadas! Ni se diga! 😄 My most favorite to curb my sweet tooth! They're 3 big & filling. The staff was friendly, area clean. It's a lunch truck with a medium patio with enough seating & a fan to help with this heat. 🥵 However, we had to take our food back to hotel because we can't stand the humidity in this town. Plenty of parking. Look for the blue decor representing Salvador. Looks like they opened a restaurant near by.

I’ve been wanting to come here for a while, and today I finally was able to! The food is absolutely amazing, the staff are professional, and the place is very cute and clean! The prices were great too. This place has the best pupusas I’ve ever eaten. I will definitely come here more often! Muchas gracias!

I don't know how I haven't tried this place before as I love pupusas. We were in the area and I'm so glad we came upon them in our search. We got 4 pupusas, a mix of revueltas, chicken and cheese, and pork and cheese. Honestly they were all great and I would recommend any of them. The toppings (salsa and veggie mix) were also very tasty. The platanos were also very good, but not sure it's worth the price compared to the value you get for the pupusas. The service was also nice and quick, and they have some outdoor seating that is fairly nice for a food truck. Absolutely recommended even if it's a drive... The pupusas were great and super affordable!

I would highly recommend eating here if in the area. Stopped in around 10:30 on a Thursday. No one else eating at the tables, but plenty of people grabbing takeout. The lady taking our order was nice, and we got our food quickly. I had a chicken and cheese papusa and pork and cheese papusa. Both came with a slaw and red sauce. The papusa was fresh and hot, packed full of cheese and meat. All around delicious topped with the slaw and red sauce. The red sauce wasn't too spicy, and added a nice freshness to the papusa.

New fan, who dis? I ordered a bunch of vegetarian pupusas and they all were killer. I did the wrong thing of ordering ahead and showing up late, so my bad. I put them in the air fryer and it was a lil greasy but delicious! Check them out! Cute lil spot with ample outdoor seating.

Quaint little food truck! Small parking lot nearby. I ordered a steak and chicken pupusa. The food came out in around 15 minutes. Both were very delicious and filling! Total came out to be around $9. It seems to be authentic based on its clientele. Always a good sign when you see people of the same ethnic group eating at an ethnic restaurant! Would come again for a quick, filling, and cost effective lunch!

So good!! The steak was prepared perfectly. I had 2 pork and cheese pupusas that were delicious! There was plenty of food, it was 2 meals for me. I can't wait to return and try the other entrees and different pupusas.

Incredible place because it's local and the quality is superb the masa is incredibly fluffy and the cheese they use is more reminiscent of Oaxacan cheese. I love this place because it's lowkey and has great prices and food 7 bucks takes you far

No bueno (sad face). I have had homemade pupusas and sadly, the fell so short expectations. First, they were greasier than I personally care for . I'm not sure what kind of cheese was used but there was so much of it that it overwhelmed all the other flavors. I couldn't even taste the chicharrón in it. The loroco one tasted as if the flowers were past their ideal use point. I think the only thing I appreciate was the curtido, that had a good balance of flavor. The salsa, meh was not very seasoned. I also ordered plátanos. Again, so greasy. The crema looked more like mayo but was also lacking in flavor. The beans really didn't do much to enhance the overly greasy plátanos , sadly. Their prices were reasonable but I definitely do not consider this place a do over. I've had authentic pupusas on the west coast and these unfortunately feel really short.

Absolutely great! Super cute food truck with lots of outdoor seating and good vibes. I had the spinach, jalapeño and pork pupusas and they were probably some of the best pupusas I've ever had! I also had their pina aguas frescas and it is super yummy fresh squeezed pineapple juice, super delicious! They were extremely friendly and when I was only to eat 1 1/2 of them they boxed/bagged the rest up for me to go, highly recommend!

Best pupusa I ever had*. Great fried plantains too. And good value. * I'm not a pupusa expert and haven't been to El Salvador. But it was delicious and rica for sure.

I keep coming back for the juicy fried chicken! It's one of the few dishes in Austin I crave. Looks like their business is growing. Large patio area. Check hours to make sure they're open :)

Stop what you're doing and go grab a bite from Delmy's! Ambience: This unassuming roadside truck is located on Riverside off Montopolis. There is on site parking, and a cute and spacious seating area if you want to dine there. The service: I've always been greeted with a smile, there are only a couple employees who speak English, but they are great at figuring out what you want. There is no sales tax, the prices listed are what you pay. You're given a pager for the wait and everything is made fresh. The goods: I've only had the papusasand they were amazing. I've tried they chicken and cheese, shrimp and cheese, and spinach and cheese. They are large and stuffed! Thought the shrimp and cheese definitely need more shrimp. The truck also offers a variety of entrees. Everything from rotisserie chicken to steak. Sides include rice, beans, salad, and plantains. Every dish is made to order so there may be a wait, it's worth it! If you're looking for something different, try this Salvadoran truck.

The food is great quality. The price is reasonable especially for the size. They are quick, great presentation, and everything is served warm. The fresh ingredients make a great pupusa. I also like that there are so many different options. I am from Costa Rica and they have some similar dishes to our traditional foods so I always go there whenever I'm feeling homesick. Whenever someone comes to visit, I always suggest going there.

Great price and great size of the pupusas. I also tried the fried plantains and they were so good. I ordered 3 pupusas and 2 were big enough to make me feel full. I ordered my food for pick up and it was ready in 15 minutes.

I've been wanting to try Delmy's for a few years now and I'm glad I finally did! I ordered a chicharron pupusa, a jalapeño pupusa, and shared some platano fritos. It was delicious; I especially loved the platanos and crema. The patio area is nice and covers the sun nicely. I definitely recommend supporting Delmy's!

First time trying popusas and I loved them! The pork and cheese was my favorite and bean and cheese ranking at #2. These had about 5 other options so I'll have to come back and try them all :) They have a cute/clean set up and plenty of seating with shade.

Decidí este lugar sin pensarlo de antemano, lo definiría como Una cocina que me recuerda de dónde vengo. Evidentemente reforzaron el gesto intuitivo de la comida y gastronomía salvadoreña. Es una cocina procedente que forma parte del patrimonio de El salvador, constituye un elemento de su identidad la cual representa una experiencia cultural y sensorial propios de la region.

It's a good truck with a very cute covered seating area so the sun isn't directly hitting you. Everything was clean. The presentation was nice for it being a good truck. The food: AMAZING! I've had pupusas many times before and even homemade ones, these were my favorite so far. Everything was made fresh to order which means you do have to wait a little bit but it's worth the wait. I ordered 1 pork and cheese and 1 jalepeño and cheese with a side of fried plantains to share. The food was very filling, 1 is definitely enough to fill you up. To drink we ordered their homemade tamarindo drink which was also very refreshing and delicious. I will definitely return to try some other Salvadorian dishes.

My first pupuseria visit now that I am an Austin resident and this was the right choice. Big, cheesy pupusas is the name of the game here! We got a couple after I arrived at the airport. I was hungry but not starving, and my two pupusas turned into two meals. The portions are very generous. The red tomato (non spicy) salsa is just what I love. Along with the cabbage and the crema, you can't go wrong by eating here.

These are the best papusas I've had in Austin. Not only is everything made to order and full of flavor, the customer service is 5 stars too. There is so much flavor in each bite. The loroco is my favorite with the bean and cheese in close second. Don't forget to order the fried plantains too. If you haven't been here yet, what are you waiting for? Estas son las mejores papusas que he probado en Austin. No solo todo está hecho a pedido y lleno de sabor, el servicio al cliente también es de 5 estrellas. Hay mucho sabor en cada bocado. El loroco es mi favorito con el frijol y el queso en segundo lugar. No olvide pedir también los plátanos fritos. Si aún no has estado aquí, ¿a qué estás esperando?

AMAZING food. You can't go wrong picking anything from this place. My go to order is bean and cheese pupusas + order or yuca 100/10. The ladies working are always nice and happy to provide any extra repollo or sauce you may need. Remember to tip!

By far the best Authentic Salvadoran food I've had in Austin. The pupusas were perfectly made, they were a great size, and had enough meat and cheese. We're fans of the chicharrón & queso and they didn't disappoint. The tamales were amazing! Perfect amount of meat and the masa was tasty. Tamales Fritos were delicious and the empanadas de plátano *chef kiss*. The staff was super friendly and the place was kept clean and had enough seating. This food was as authentic as when my mom and grandma make as Salvadoran born and raised. Definitely going to be a staple in our family.

I have been craving Pupusas since I moved to Austin and I found this hidden gem! They were made to order, the size was very generous and definitely worth the money. THE TASTE!!! I ate them for lunch and am writing this review at midnight because I can't stop thinking about how delicious they were. Can't wait to go back! I would've included more pictures but ate them way too quickly.

OOOMMMGG! This tiny food truck packs a huge punch of FLAVOR!!! I ordered 3 papusas and fried fish! The people see very friendly and the food was tasty and inexpensive! It's a must try for people who like Salvadoran food! Sorry for the subpar photos, I was starving.

As local as it gets. I don't even see longtime local Austinites eat here- it's that much of a hidden gem. You may feel out of place if you don't order in Spanish, but worth the taste. Prices have gone up considerably to $3.50 per pupusa, but I would still recommend. (Even though my 2 pupusa order took 20 minutes to make)

Tried pupusas for the first time here, so I can't say I can compare them to any others, but these were so so good. The curtido (perfectly pickled slaw that accompanies the doughy delights) is something I try to replicate at home. The tangy acidity complements the savory, buttery flavors of the pupusas so well.

When I say I cried tears of joy eating Delmy's bean and cheese pupusas, that would be an understatement. My partner and I have eaten here twice in the past week, and we'll probably eat here another time! The food is fresh and delicious, and you can call ahead to pick up!

Really great Salvadoran food. Only had the 2 Papusas because they were so filling. At $2.50 each they were a bargain. The ladies were super nice and very proud of their food. The Revueltas and Loroco are traditional offerings. The Revueltas were a mix of bean, meat and cheese. The Loroco is an edible flower ... as it says in Wikipedia... tastes green with overtones of nuts. The cheese is a gooey mozzarella... perfect for this meal. Can't wait to go back to try more.

This was my first time eating a pupusa and it was a great experience. The place is a very unassuming food truck but don't let that fool you, the pupusas are worth stopping for and at 2 for $7 you'll want to eat 4.

So this is more 4.5 stars, but I'll get to that. We absolutely love pupusas and we try to scope out new spots whenever we go out of town. This was a little food truck with a very clean, cute patio set up. The people taking orders and cooking were super nice and everyone who came to eat while we were there was friendly. We always have pupusas con queso y chicharron and chicharron con yucca. They were both AMAZING. The chicharron were really good chunks of pork, just fatty enough in places, but crispy and meaty. Sometimes you get questionable cuts of pork, but not at Delmy's. The pupusas were piping hot and cheesy just like we like them. I would absolutely come back here the next time we're in Austin. The only tiiiiny thing is that the parking lot/area looked a little sketch at first but turned out to be fine. Also, the majority is not paved so it's pretty uneven and rocky if you have a car that sits lower to the ground. Just an FYI, but it wouldn't stop us from returning.

Came here on a rainy day right before catching a flight and ordered 4 different pupusas; bean and cheese, chicken, chicharrón, and squash. They were ready in about 10 minutes. We ended up eating them all on the flight. Thank you very much.

One of the best papusas in Austin. Everything made in front of you from scratch and each bite reminds you of El Salvador's richness in food and home. And yes, they take card.
