One of the best deals in Denver! The pupusas are LARGE, accompanied with fresh salsa and slaw, and very tasty. A little Spanish will help in this Little San Salvador on a pretty rough stretch of Colfax. Once you’re in the door though they have lots of products in the shop, plus a full service restaurant for all things El Salvador.

As authentic as it gets for Salvadoran food. Prices are reasonable and portions are large. Happy I found a place with all my Salvadoran favorites. The caldo de pollo and típico breakfast were on point. Not a fancy place or neighborhood but worth the adventure for the food.
