Pupusería & Restaurant El Águila

The best pupusas in San Jose by far

Ladies are extremely rude and never check up on you. There is one young girl that has been nice to us but other than that all old lady waitress have been rude.
Besides that food is really good and made fresh to order except the burger and fries. Do not order anything non salvadorian food.

My El Savadorian friend recommended this place so I decided to give it a try. Foods are good, friendly service, clean restaurant. The best part is they don’t ask for tip when you pay. I will definitely come back!

We were visiting SJ from Chicago and wanted to try some Salvadoran food. We tried the pupusas, the Salvadoran tamales de pollo, atol de maiz, and horchatas. My son ordered a carnitas taco as well. The food was very good, the service was acceptable, and parking was very convenient. I returned for another meal before heading back to Chicago. The pupusas were as good as the first time. It is a good place to try.

Despite the bad reviews, I wanted to give this place a try because why not. Not only did I regret it but it was a big disappointment. There was plenty of parking in the parking lot in the evening. When we walked inside there was a lot of places to seat, but we wanted our food to go. The girl who took our to go order repeated our order, so we know she got our order right. We waited around 15 min for our food. The music they had playing was great. When we got home, the order was wrong. We paid for 6 pupusas and only got 5. The pupusas were so oily. The yuca con chicharron did not look tasty and normally I am stealing it from my husband. We will definitely not be going back

Food is great! Waitress with butterfly tattoos has a bad attitude! Definitely shouldn’t be working as a server, but it’s probably a family business so who knows! Other than that most employees are helpful and smiling!
