Don Carlos Pupuseria

My family and I recently had the pleasure of dining at a this wonderful family-owned Salvadorian restaurant, and it was an absolute delight! The atmosphere is vibrant and colorful, really reflecting the rich culture of El Salvador. The place is impeccably clean and welcoming, making it perfect for families. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring a top-notch dining experience. Plus, there's plenty of parking, including handicap access, which is always a bonus. And the menu is a treasure trove of authentic Salvadorian dishes that are absolutely delicious. Overall, it’s a fantastic spot that I recommend for anyone looking to enjoy genuine Salvadorian cuisine in a warm and inviting setting. Definitely worth a visit!

The pupusas are pretty good flavorful and they don’t over stuff them with beans. Good cheese and beans and pork ratio. The young lady at the register was so sweet. Check out their 6 for 20 pupusa deal definitely worth it

“If you haven’t tried Don Carlos Pupuseria, you’re missing out! The pupusas are packed with flavor, the curtido is perfectly tangy, and every bite tastes like authentic Salvadoran home cooking. Portions are generous, prices are fair, and the service makes you feel like family. A hidden gem that’s absolutely worth the visit!”

Yum 😋

Delicious&freshly made, from the pickled cabbage & cauliflower, to the amazing pupusas nice and hot from the kitchen to your table, every dish we ordered was tasty, and let’s not forget the Micheladas which was a nice surprise when we arrived that they have drinks to go with our dinner. Definitely a little Gem in El Monte, not too far from the Frwy and a family business that puts as much care into their food as their clients. 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻

OMG the food was absolutely positively incredible! I didn't eat for 16 hours so I could come here and eat as many pupusas as I could. The lady at the cashier was friendly and charming. She recommended great selections. I could tell she was proud of the food she was serving. The food was freshly made and came out hot and delicious 😋. Would definitely travel 4 hours again to come back here.

I absolutely loved this place 18 years ago and I still do. It's hard to find good Salvadorian food and it has kept standing through all the years.

Good food, good services

Very bad food, I ordered a beef broth for my wife, that broth had already been stored for days, I think it tasted like a pipe, I didn't eat it, I ordered some popusas for me, also horrible, the raw dough, I don't know, the cooks are no good and they don't know how to make food and it's better not to ever return to that Don Carlos Popusa restaurant does not serve as long as the owner does not know how to make food and sells the food left by customers that are not picked up. County workers should be more careful with this restaurant and check it more often
