Panaderia y Pupuseria Los Cocos

"Located in a small Centinela Avenue strip mall, this unassuming Westside mainstay serves 19 types of pupusas, including classics like pork with cheese, and loroco with cheese, as well as vegan options like squash with potato, and beans with Soyrizo. Plus, there’s a full pastry case of sweets, along with bread and other baked goods to round out the meal." - Rebecca Roland, Eater Staff

"At first glance, Los Cocos looks like a Salvadoran panadería with display cases full of conchas and golden quesadillas (the moist pound cake, not the cheesy tortilla dish). But look a little closer and you’ll see a small dry-erase board behind the counter listing off . The classics like revueltas and bean and cheese are quite good here, but this Del Rey shop is our go-to for veggie-stuffed pupusas with contrasting textures. Order the squash, onion, and carrot pupusa with crunchy vegetables peaking through the soft masa, which you should top with zippy purple cabbage curtido. " - Sylvio Martins
