I had the chorizo & queso, and the jalapeno & queso with steak on top. Both were very tasty, but very distinct flavors! The pickles cabbage was surprisingly good, and is a must have for anyone who even remotely likes sauerkraut! And even if you don't, you might still like it, since it's a milder flavor than most sauerkraut.

Phenomenal pupusas! While the yuka nuggets weren't bad, the cafe con leche is something I will come back for very soon! This place is great.

This is the best Salvadoran food I've had in the 10 years I've been married to one.

I’m no pupusa expert, but this stuff is incredible! If you haven’t had them here, you MUST go. Will be a regular here for sure. Friendly guy that runs the counter as well.

That place is absolutely amazing! We were a group of five and every single thing we ordered was delicious! I don't live in Denver but every time I'm back in town I'm stopping by this place!

Very cute pupusa shop with a wide variety of flavors. The curtido was very fresh and the pupusas nicely grilled. Great flavor on salsa roja also.

This was my first time visiting Pupusas Lovers, and I came based on the great reviews and vegan options. The food looked amazing, and I was genuinely excited to try it after a 3-hour flight. I arrived right around 9 a.m. when they opened.

There were two gentlemen already seated, and a woman was working in the back. When she finally came to the front, she walked right past me and took their order without so much as a greeting. Once she was done, she returned to the front, looked at me, but still said nothing. I greeted her and mentioned I’d be dining in—but it was clear there was a language barrier. That’s okay—I had Google Translate ready and speak a little Spanish, so I was willing to work with that.

Unfortunately, the issue wasn’t just about language. I waited 30 minutes as she prepared their food without acknowledging me again. Then another customer walked in, greeted in Spanish, and was served *immediately*—before me. At that point, it became obvious: I wasn’t welcome here. I hadn’t received water or any attempt at service.

Feeling completely ignored and disrespected, I left. I brought my business to another restaurant that was far more welcoming. Looking back at other negative reviews, I noticed similar concerns about customer service and I now understand why.

I don’t take lightly what feels like discrimination, and while I could offer recommendations, it feels pointless when basic hospitality isn’t even extended. When you know, you know.

I stopped by here by chance and was blown away by the prices of the pupusas!!!! I moved out here from the richest county in the country and can’t believe I paid $22.52 for THREE pupusas! 🤯 I won’t be back & my Salvadoran husband was not happy & shocked that I paid that much😑 I called & ordered by phone & didn’t ask the price as they’re usually around $4-5/ea. I learned my lesson though 🤷🏼‍♀️ Food took a while too. They did taste good so if you have that kinda money to spend, enjoy it!

The team was very accommodating, engaging, and efficient! The dining area and bathroom were very clean. I absolutely love the vibe in here. The jalapeño w/ cheese and the spinach w/ cheese pupusas were SO fresh and delicious! Rice and beans were cooked perfectly! I will be visiting frequently. Highly recommend!!!! Made with love!
