I give them a five because Salvadorian food is it's own flavors. You know what I mean, they have the flavors. But also, they make their papusas fresh to order. I know this because I can't eat dairy so I asked him what kind they have... He must get asked that a lot because he had a long pointer stick by the wall and whipped it out and started pointing to the menu above the register on the wall ? basically you can order any combination of ingredients. So I got a bean and zucchini one. It was so good. It comes with a sauce that tastes kind of like the juice we make Mexican rice with, but I loved it. And also the slaw they give to put on it. I'd def eat that same thing again. I also got a rice and bean burrito. I like getting simple things places because I feel like if they can do simple dishes flavorfully, then they know their stuff. And the burrito was good. I'll go there again for sure.

I got the carne asada plate here and it was some of the best carne asada I've ever had. Meat had a rich beef flavor, perfectly good, extremely tender, juicy, and well seasoned. Have also tried the quesadilla and hot chocolate, both of which were very good.

Carne asada pupusa was ? Fried plantain goes crazy ? It you can find a great selection wether you eat Meat are Vegan or Vegetarian! Not to many restaurants can say that!

Delicious and freshly made. Good service. A nice sized menu but I was focused on the pupusas which did not disappoint. Looks like they are encouraging take out as most tables had chairs pulled up on them when I visited during dinner hours. I'll definitely come again

I wanted to try a new Salvadoran restaurant in the area, and went to Cipotes. I ordered pupusa Revueltas that fell short of our expectations. They ratio of meat to dough was not good. Almost $5 for one would leave you expecting to have a meat filled pupusa, but no. I wouldn’t come here again. Customer service was okay, restaurant was nice, and they were friendly.. food fell short.

Great spot! Large and well stuffed pupusas that are made fresh! Really good platanos fritos.

Got our food to go. Can't say much for atmosphere. Service was fast. The pupusas were one of the best I've had so far.

Delicious pupusas. We had five different types and the cassava and plantain sweet dessert today. They included a generous supply of red salsa and cabbage. The staff are kindly. If you don't speak any Spanish, just have a little patience.
