The restaurant is really cozy inside. The pupusas de chicharron con queso very delicious. A must go place to visit. Very reasonable prices. With this prices going so high this place is very affordable.

I come here regularly now to order their pupusas and ensalada drink since they're so addicting!!! However, now they're serving fresh baked bread... from pan dulce, pan de muerto, pan guatemalteco, pan salvadoreño like quesadillas and so much more baked goods!

La comida está muy sabrosa. Siendo también salvadoreña tenemos una expectativa gastronómica y cada ves que viene familia y no queremos cocinar mince me defrauda este local. Para llevar es perfecto para mi. No perjudica la calidad y el sabor de las pupusas que es más importante.

I love their pupusas! So cheesy. I got the plátano plate and my daughter devoured it whole. Their ensalada drinks are amazing and I love that they have their little mini bakery. The owner is a sweetheart and the rest of the staff is so welcoming. Definitely 100% satisfied.

There was a fly in my slaw. The pupusas were good but I was so turned off and it made me really concerned about how clean their kitchen is.

Should be 0 stars. I ordered chicken soup and a pupusa. They charged me 22 dollars. They served me a chicken leg quater on top of rice with beans salad and soup. I took it back because I assumed it was a mistake. The owners gave me 8 dollars back with the soup and pupusa. I checked the soup and there was no chicken. I took it back and asked for chicken soup. They took it back again. Once the owner returned she assured me there was chicken inside the soup. She charged me an additional 8 dollars because she claimed she put 3 pieces of chicken in the soup. They gave me a wing with feathers in it and a piece of chicken back. I'm frustrated and beyond disappointed. I won't eat here again. I added pictures.

Have lived in this block my whole childhood and was very interested in trying this place out. My mom makes amazing Salvadorean food and when we stopped by this place did not disappoint! By far amazing food, especially the pupusas, just yummy! The icing on top of all of it was the horchata, its always Mexican horchata, understandably, but nope this place 100% gave me my childhood Salvadorean horchata that I can never get anywhere. The place was super clean, staff super friendly and just amazing food! My family will definitely be coming back and when I visit home will definitely be taking some food to go for the road!

This is an amazing restaurant! Their pupusas are always delicious and they make the best Pan con Pollo as well! The staff are friendly! It's a family owned business and they make their food with lots of care. I come here with my family and we leave with a happy mood and happy bellies. Highly recommend this restaurant!

This is a hidden gem. Food was amazing. I'm assuming this is a new restaurant since my family and I were the only ones there....given pandemic, I really felt safe and a sense of normalcy. Restaurant is CASH only.

This is a great little place! New to the area but so so good. Everything we order was delicious. We tried the pan con pollo, desayuno con chorizo, and an order of pastelitos de carne. Every single thing was delicious and seasoned wonderfully. The chef is really good. I would absolutely come back. The wait staff was also very friendly. There is free parking in the back.

A subtle toasty exterior with an explosion of stretchy flavorful cheese with curtido that is lightly soaked in vinegar. Delicious and satisfying

I've tried different things on the menu and so far it hasn't disappointed everything tastes good, looks appetizing, customer service is great too, and it's clean. Roomy and it's hardly ever crowded.
