Salvadoran Restaurants near Whittier, CA

“My husband and I just tried this place tonight and it’s so good! We ordered the revuelta, been and cheese, and plain cheese. They were all full of flavor. Would definitely come again.“

“I give them 5 stars for the food, the atmosphere, and the friendly staff, but at the same time, I feel sorry for them because how is it possible that the owners or managers can't see that they need more staff to serve the tables!I always eat there because the food is delicious, but unfortunately, we don't have the full service. I'm not trying to speak ill of the waitresses, but they need help. I see them running around answering phones, delivering orders, and cleaning tables. That's exploitation on the part of the owners, in my opinion. They'd rather lose customers than pay more staff.“

“Nice selection of tasty pupusas and their breakfast was on point!!!“

“Quiet Restaurant specializing in Mexican and El Salavdorian food.

Meals are essentially home cooked to order. They offer a number of dishes some better then others but a few hidden gems 💎 that elevate this place. The Pupusas are fantastic and when you factor in the price unbeatable anywhere else nearby.

A few additional recommendations is the Fiesta Burrito (wet burrito stuffed with carnitas and chili relleon) is a great lunch option or their Jeuvos Racheros are a great breakfast option.“

“This Salvadoran restaurant is absolutely on point. From the moment you sit down, you can tell that every dish is made with care and authenticity. The flavors are rich and true to traditional Salvadoran cuisine—whether it’s the perfectly seasoned pupusas, tangy curtido, or savory meats, everything tastes like home.

The service complements the food perfectly—friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The atmosphere feels warm and inviting, making it more than just a meal, but a full experience. For anyone craving real Salvadoran flavors done right, this place delivers every time.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely delicious and authentic!
We stopped by Mi Pueblo Salvadorian Restaurant and it instantly became one of my new favorite spots. The pupusas were hands down the best I’ve ever had. Perfectly cooked, cheesy, and full of flavor. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, and you can tell they take real pride in their food.

Our waitress, Rosie, was wonderful and friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. The restaurant has such a cozy, welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay and try everything on the menu.

If you’re looking for authentic Salvadorian food and great service, this is the place. We’ll definitely be back for more pupusas soon!“

“This restaurant is like a pearl in a clam in HP neighborhood. They serve delicious Salvadoran food. The restaurant can sit about five tables. It's clean and well lighted. There are two colorful wall paintings depicting life of Salvadorans. The cashier has a cheerful voice which enlightens your day. She's very friendly and knowledgeable.“

“El personal super amable , las pupusas y el atol de elote delicioso !! Hemos ido varias veces y siempre son tan serviciales !! Muchas gracias 😊“

“I have been eating at this restaurant for more than one year. Their food has a great taste, and the service is excellent and friendly. All the plates look like they were cooked with love and care, compared to other Salvadoran restaurants I have visited in these areas, where they serve food to make money regardless of whether the dish is well cooked or not. Excellent restaurant!“

“I'm not Salvadorian, but I love Salvadorian foods. This restaurant makes me even more of a pupusa-lover. Since I don't know Spanish, the Google translator helps me to communicate with the employees. But I even love it. Definitely, more often I will come back to order my dinner from this restaurant!

Wheelchair accessibility: Park rear with handicap placard, and there is wheelchair accessible entrance.“

“While this small place might just be in a car wash, do not overlook this hiddengem when looking for pupusas. We have been coming here for years and the flavors are perfect. The pupusas are big, yet full of flavor and made fresh. This also means the wait times might be longer so if you do have larger orders, I recomend calling in ahead. They also have other food dishes such as soups,tacos and even tamals. This is a must try place for fans of food in general and especially salvadorean food. The prices are also very reasonable for the amount of high quality food you get.“

“We were craving pupusas and found this little spot on Google maps. The reviews looked good, so we decided to drive out there, and OMG, it did not disappoint! The service was top tier and everything we tried was delicious!!! Definitely coming back and definitely recommend this place! So, so good!!“

“This is my third time visiting this place and the food is awesome not disappointed at all also the service is excellent the waitress name Jessica was very friendly and helpful and the food was on point will recommend this to family and friends.!!!“

“First timer, and I am definitely picky when it comes to Salvadorian food and authenticity, this is very delicious and homey feel. .I had pupusas (revueltas, queso con loroco, chicharon) all very good not greasy at all. Sauces and curtido very good!!!!. Very clean restaurant and very friendly staff. Thank you“

“Él mejor restaurante se los Garantizo que lo biciten Seran super atendidos.“

“100% go with these guys. They were not only the most economical, but they were SOOO GOOOOOD and a hit with all our guests. I still have people texting me how good the pupusas were. And the agua fresca was so good. Will definitely use them again“

“If you plan on wanting to eat at home, definitely order ahead..Wait for Pupusas is usually about 20 minutes. The people there are very nice, they have reasonable prices, and I feel like they are consistent with the quality of their food( at least for the last 5 years that I've been going).. my go tos are usually Pupusas de queso con jalapeño and bean and cheese, oh and the loroco ones. Plus an order of yucca frita with chicharron.“

“The owner prepares everything handmade right when you order it! The prices are low for such high quality food. I noticed a lot of people called ahead to order to go but I enjoy eating there. The pork & cheese, also chicken & cheese pupusas are fantastic! The owner was helpful & her husband is always nice. The menu, which is laid out well. Clean restroom, authentic decor, nice variety of drinks. Music is at a high volume. Yummy spicy curtido and the red sauce is just right, with good spices. So far I have brought two new friends to this place and I will keep bringing more here. I'm excited to have an authentic El Salvadorian restaurant in Fullerton!“

“Wow, the pupusas are to die for!!! Have had them from several places even from family members, but these are soooo good and nice big portion.
2 thumbs up on the food, but place does need a little bit more maintenance. Was there about 12pm sat at a table to wait for my to go order and the table was sticky. Also customer service lacks a little bit of joy in their attitude. Seems like they are tired, it was only mid-day.“

“Rica comida, buen servicio!!“

“Muy rica comida, el lugar es muy limpio y los precios son razonables.“

“Very good food with homemade taste. A little hidden place in Walnut, but with great dishes and you can feel the love in the food you eat. I tried the bistec picado, and a carne asada burrito...delicious. Do not forget to try the fruit juice. Very refreshing!“

“I've been here twice and both times the food was delicious. Yesterday was my first time trying an actual salvadorean dish besides the typical breakfast plate and pupusas and I was glad I did. The pollo encebollado had a savory taste with sweetness from the carmelized onions and the rice and beans were soooo tasty. I love that the plate comes with a fresh side of salad because it adds color and freshness to a hearty plate. The service is also attentive and polite.“

“Good google and good service“

“Buenísimo!!! Lo recomiendo . Un buen lugar y buena comida .“

I was a little worried at first because they took a little long but wow when my plate got to me it was piping hot. Portion were big and food was delicious. Definitely surprised on how good it was. I will be coming again. Pupusas were fire too.“

“The waiter recommended the Caldo de Gallina and Wow great recommendation…it was super tasty and just the right amount of serving and the price was fair. The service was wonderful I would recommend this place if your looking for fresh clean meal.“

“Bomb pupusas! I’d eat them everyday if I could. Authentic as it can get, check this place out you won’t regret it!“

“I was excited to try Pupuseria Conalpa after hearing good things, but my experience was a bit disappointing. I ordered the **pan con pollo**, and unfortunately, it was far too acidic — the tomato overpowered the other flavors. The sauce, which should tie everything together, lacked seasoning and depth, leaving the dish tasting flat. The bread and chicken were decent, but overall it missed the balance I was hoping for. With a few adjustments to the flavor and sauce, it could be much better.“

“El mejor servicio , la comida exquisita todo muy agradable y los precios accesibles“

“Ordered here because it was one of the only places open on Christmas Day and it did not disappoint! The food is all very well made, not overly greasy, flavor on point. We even loved the salchipapas we got as a free upgrade because we ordered through Uber Eats. Can’t wait to try different menu options in the future. This place is definitely a hidden gem.“

“we were recommend and we really love the food, my hubby and friends from Australia Really love the food“

“Muy buena comida y un ambiente familias ,“

“They have the best Pupusas I’ve ever had. 😋“
