Super friendly service! The papusas were so delicious and hand made. Idk what kind of salad they put on top, but I would eat that all by itself!! 10/10 definitely coming back to try the other kinds in the menu.

Walked shortly after 11am open. They didn’t seem ready at all. Plenty of staff. We stood there for a few minutes and wasn’t really greeted very well. Ended up walking out.

Really fresh food and friendly staff

I love this cheap and cheerful place. I only gave 3 stars for atmosphere to be honest about the of the style of dining, it is a no frills fast dining style place. 5 stars for the feeling being there the people are great. They are non native English speakers so be gracious with your communication, but they are kind and warm and eager to get things right. They have a small staff so it takes some time when they are busy but the food is wonderful and authentic. You can call in to go orders and I do that often. I hope everyone can try their papusas and sauce they are really wonderful. I would recommend this place to anyone!

The pupusas, guisado, fried yuca, curtido, salsa tasted horrible. The stew had no flavor other than the acidity of the tomato. The curtido had no flavor at all, the refried beans seemed like water as well as the sauce. As if that were not enough, the atmosphere of the place seemed more like an empty warehouse than a restaurant. In silence, without music that is usually heard in these small family places. The waitresses looked terrible and although a little friendly, it really counts a lot to see the person who serves the food with such little care with their hygiene. We mistakenly visited this place because of the reviews it has on Google but it was definitely not worth the lunch . If the owner of the place decides to improve, it would be a blessing just like the name that will start from the atmosphere of the place, to the waitresses, and mainly the food. Let the authentic and Salvadoran flavor be seen from the kitchen.

We stopped on our way through town and the food was so good! It's not a fancy place, but the food and service more than make up for it. We got a cheese and spinach papusa, fried plantains, and marinated grilled chicken.

Great food with excellent service! Don’t miss the elote tamale. A little bit of fluffy corn heaven with a touch of crema.The perfect snack or with a chicken pupusa. Looking forward to my next visit!

After reading the reviews, I decided to try this eatery only because the food comments, service and food options appeared above average. It is my opinion, that the ratings missed the mark. The service, food options and overall ambiance were lackluster. Yet one should try it to see whether it tintalates your palate.
