“My family was in the mood for Central American food and after a quick google search I found this small hole in the wall restaurant.Glad I came here the food was delicious. The pepperoni popusas were bomb and cheesy (a lot of places skimp out on the cheese not here) . The garnachas were also good an order gets you 8!!!. Good bang for your buck.Will be coming back for breakfast.“

“Personally, I love it, only that a couple of times they forget the tortillas and another two times they gave me a thigh with the bone peeled from the leg. Someone ate the chicken. I didn't want to complain because the food is good.

“Cielo mar y Tierra y el caldo de gallina esta Rico“

“Very delicious food, abundant. Place is hole in the wall. It has four tables. Max capacity 10 people. Lots of customes picking up orders placed over the phone. Very clean. I order salpicon and a medium orchata. I enjoyed very much. Took my 45 minutes to finish my meal. :<)“

“Don’t let the city scare you, this is a very nice and clean restaurant.

The food is very good, they serve both Salvadoran and Mexican food. I have only tasted the Salvadoran food, pupusas, sopa de pata, traditional breakfast etc. the dining area is spacious and will accommodate a large family. If you want authentic tasting pupusas or Salvadoran food this would be the place to eat.

There is plenty of onsite parking for both the restaurant and the other business.“

“Healthy simple food.I like it just the way it is. I got the #1 ejotes con huevo; scrambled eggs, green beans, onion, tomato & bell pepper; accompanied with queso fresco, beans, crema, avocado slice, and thick corn tortillas. Fresh, simple and not heavy. Plus the price is also fair. If we ALL ate good simple food vs fast food chain, we all would be better off“

“me gusto mucho las pupusas riquísimas la a ten ion excelente está en mis planes volver para probar más comidas“

“Order Three Cheese Popusas
Delicious!!!
But... The Curtido Not Fresh Is Fresh Because It Has Been Refrigerated For Days!!!!
The Sauce Is Still Not Fresh From Days And Without Taste....
It's been several times now that Boy they put the curtido and the sauce on me and I don't even try them...
But.. The Very Delicious Popusas“

“Best pupusas ever. I’ve also tried their sopa de gallina, pan con pollo and yuca con chícharron which have all been excellent. Our go to is the pupusas revueltas grandes which will be a little bigger, have more filling and are so cheesy! We accompany our pupusas with the plate of Platanos con frijol y queso and a large ensalada drink, hits the spot every time. Everything is made to order so you might wait a while but it’s definitely worth it.“

“las pupusas sopa de pata👍“

“The lady knows my voice! She automatically says Hola Josefina! Yesterday, she made me a lupus with cheese and CALABASITAS! She makes tamales. The chicken ones are so good. I bought a dozen at 10 am. took them home by 300pm they were gone. She takes orders ANYTIME and makes hundreds of them for CHRISTMAS! I love her!“

“The pupusas are great. The black beans super delicious and the platanos fritos.
I called ahead for pick up it took about 20 mins. Food is great will be coming back to try there other stuff on the menu. Totally recommend this place.
Parking is limited. I parked on the street.“

“Buena la comida 🥘 y barato“

“1st time here. Chose it for their 4.5 rating and "A" Food Inspection rating. The curtido was a bit spicy but enjoyable. Pupusas had a toasty outside and enough cheese. Empanadas de platano were great and half the price of other places. Horchata had a pleasant flavor. I would return“

“I have gone to the champas because I have to pick up the pupusas that my wife orders to take away. They make some plantains that wrap beans and they are tasty and the pupusas too, except that I suffer from acids and vinegar because it makes my stomach upset, since I had an appendix operation, but if you have a good and healthy stomach I recommend them but not excessively so that it doesn't hurt your stomach too.“

“La mariscada y Plato Mixto“

“This place is a hidden gem. The staff are super nice great customer service as soon as you walk I'm glad we came across it. We took 10 pupusas to go and ate there it was all freshly made as you order. You won't regret coming here. We will be coming back Thank you

“Absolutely love this place! The food is super fresh and tastes homemade. I can tell they really care about quality. Their breakfast burritos are delicious and super satisfying. I also love their fresh juices. So refreshing and the perfect complement to any meal. Great service and a cozy, welcoming vibe. Highly recommend!“

“Very good food and services“

“I was craving pupusas and was looking around for a new spot since all the ones around the south bay area are so so or haven't been so good. I called ahead to place my order. I ordered about 15 pupusas. When I arrived I checked in the counter and was given a 15 minute ETA for completion but i ended up getting my food in 10min. When I got home I was pleasantly surprised my pupusas were neatly packaged and were wrapped individually so they wouldn't get stuck to each other. The pupusas looked and smelled great. They were a little on the greesier side but I don't mind. I am usually not optimistic about the curtido (not sure if that's how you spell it lol) and the red sauce but let me tell you it was fire .. they were both done right and the Lemus restaurant was not stingy with the amount they gave out. The revueltas were really good and had a good mix of stuffing inside they were not stingy. The bean and cheese were also good and really cheesey my kids loved them. I will definitely be coming back for some more.“

“Absolutely ? % the best Salvadoran Restaurant in Southeast Los Angeles.
The Sopa de Res (Beef stew) is freshly made, order ahead if you can,.
..You will be back for sure once you discover this place!
Thanks to the owner, and Cook , Vicki , you're the best!!“

“Good, cozy Central American (Salvadorian) place. Food was fresh and good , but a little bit cold. I ordered plate with breakfast and green beans. My friends ordered different variation of Pupusas. They were happy.
Also here a Karaoke with a good big screens.
Sounds was not bad at all, but advising to the owner. Please put on your walls a sound proof panels. Coz you guys have a concrete walls and tile. And this gives you huge echo and sound reflection.
This is why I left earlier.

But overall I will back with my friends for sure.
Oh yes , prices for main dishes cheaper than in other similar places about 20%.“

“The pupusas are always great! Everything you get it's going to be amazing, you can't go wrong. Try the Horchata and Fresco de ensalada for a fresh tasty treat��“

“This a great place for pupusas.I had both a loroco and a revuelta pupusa. The loroco was very cheesy and had a very nice light veggie taste from the blossoms. The revuelta was full of flavor and not overly salty.The cortiodo had a nice bite to it and a pleasant balance between the herbs and vinegar.I also had a tamale de elote, it tasted very fresh. It came with crema and beans, and was a nice finish to my lunch.I think they make their own tamarindo Agua fresca - it had a nice tartness without being overly sweet.“

“la comida bien salada, pedi 4 pupusas y curtido me dieron como para una nomas la sopa de Pata bien fria y solo vegetales tenia no tenia Pata ni panza y la Horchata estaba agria y le dije a la mesera k me la cambiara me dijo k nose podia k mal servicio y todo Bien caro“

“I recommend this place they have nice service and the food is good I love to come hear with my family“

“Always a great vibe and delicious food! Los platos fuertes (like the Bistec Encebollado) are 🔥🔥🔥. Will absolutely recommend to others.“

“Exelente“

“The food is good and decently priced.I like the fact that you can get Salvadorian dishes or Mexican.Since it's located in a lower-income area, the atmosphere is not even mid-tier.Don't let that discourage you.I enjoyed the chilaquiles with a side popusa.“

“It's was good I liked it. I will definitely go again.“
