What a wonderful hidden gem of a restaurant. The food was fresh and filling. It’s worth the wait for this delicious food. The service was great.

These pupusas were truly delicious! I had been craving them for years and haven’t found a good place since eating them in El Salvador. When I saw they cost 5.50 per pupusa I wondered if it was worth it but they were so good we are going back for sure! They are also a bit bigger than your average pupusa. We ate four pupusas and an order of plátano frito between three people and it filled us all up.Wheelchair accessibility: I went in my wheelchair and I could fit through the spaces in the parking lot and through the door to get it. I just parked my wheelchair at the end of a table to eat.

First time to try PL for takeout, but was tempted to stay and eat in their little cabana-style space. Would recommend the revuelta pupusa, very simple but tasty! Others have said the service was slow but I was glad to wait for freshly made food as I was prob their first lunch order for the day. The cabbage and carrots and salsa were kinda meh, no pica para nada!Parking: Tight parking lot shared with other businesses

Introduced to pupusas through the book "The Water Knife", we love this restaurant and its food. It is small, and serves the local Salvadoran community. It has the feeling of being in a home and having wonderful food prepared and served to you. Highly recommended! The "Lover Plate" easily feeds two and is delicious!Vegetarian options: They have many vegetable and cheese options.

Everything about this place was wonderful and charming from beginning to end! The staff was lovely, the decor was fun and really set the experience up, and the food was mind blowing. I did a happy dance with my first bite of papusa and that joy lasted through the whole meal! I am so happy we found this little hidden gem and it will now be a regular trip across town to eat there and try all the things on their menu.

This place has excellent, made to order, pupusas. They have a large variety and can accommodate vegan, dairy free, gluten-free, and vegetarian. Again, they are made to order, and you will wait for food to be prepared.The space is smaller, and larger parties may find seating challenging. We definitely recommend stopping by. Do not let the exterior facade deter you.

Phenomenal pupusas and fermented cabbage, it'll blow your face off. I always get the fish pupusas but you can't go wrong.

This place is an absolute gem. It's small, unassuming, with just a few tables inside, sometimes outside, but they make the most amazing pupusas I have ever had. My friend's mother used to make these for us and I hate to admit that these are better.You can see them make each pupusa fresh to order through the kitchen window, and they come out perfectly hot. The service is great, the people that work there are so kind. You have to try these!!!

Don't pass this tiny spot up! It is insanely delicious. I ate in, but I also saw that they do a lot of takeout orders.
