The food is delicious! The pupusas are exactly what I expected, very good! The cheese and flavors go well together! The salsa is different from what I've had in the past. It's much better! Queso and rice are awesome as well! That lemonade is really good! The service is great! The prices are reasonable. The parking is decent. It's not a huge place but it's big enough for me. I have no complaints! Everything was good! I highly recommend and I would love to try...

Pupusa Pupusa and Papusa's! Many toppings for them. Served PIPING HOTTT! Please give them adequate time to prepare 20-25 minutes. Definitely worth the wait...we had Cheese pupusa, a spinach and beef, and a Chicken and bean. Who would have thought chicken and bean would HIT LIKE THAT! Sorry I don't have any pics, food didn't stand a chance!
