Remember to order at the counter before sitting down. I made the mistake of sitting down first and realized no one was coming to take my order. I placed my order, sat down and the food was out in about 10 minutes. I ordered a breakfast biscuit and chicken pupusas. Everything was great and hot and the staff was perfect. I will be back.

I was very excited to finally try this place. Very disappointed Food to me did not have much flavor at all The thing that made it level up was the green sauce but that's all the flavor I got and that was half way through. It just was not good the black beans had no flavor nor the rice or chicken. I got 2 pieces of cake to take home coconut and black and white cake. Cream cheese frosting doesn't go on coconut cake if that's what it was.....and the black and white had NO chocolate flavor or any flavor at all.... And they both were so so dry...... I am so confused...... The young lady taking order was pleasant that's why I gave 2 stars. I really wanted thus to be good it just wasn't.

Absolutely incredible and nearly perfect as a lunch spot for a long drive, it's small but mighty in it's menu options with almost every desert and pie you could possibly think of and outstanding authentic food, the pupusas are incredible and rather cheap, would absolutely love to come here again.

When I travel, I try to always support local business owners, and Samantha's very deserving. The resturant is very small, less of a resturant, and more like a deli and bakery. Had the chorizo and a chicken taco, and chorizio Pupusas, which I'd never heard of. You order All arrived within 5 min and were very good. The tacos are street style, home made white corn torlillias, the chorizio had lots of meat, full of flavor. The chicken taco was stewed chicken, though not my favorite, it was flavorful. And the Pupusas was delightful as well. As for service, servers were very accomodating. Total cost, and well worth it, including a Topo Cinco water = $18.

It is a small place, I don't consider it a restaurant, the service is good depending on the person who takes your order and the food tastes good although the price is too high for what it is, I would think twice before returning!

Full meals and an excellent bakery,!
Parking: Nice outdoor dining tables in summer. Food always freshly prepared, a real gem!
The food was delicious and all the staff members were really nice. My family tried some pupusas, tacos, and pastelitos. My favorite pupusa was the revuelta: shredded pork, beans, and cheese. The flan was spectacular!! 😋🤌 Looking forward to trying more entrees and desserts in the future!
*Updated to add pictures of the menu from my last visit (1/19/25), as I haven't been able to find the complete menu online. Also included a picture of my pupusas revueltas, yuca fries, and Salvadoran sauerkraut from my last visit as well.

Best pupusas in Orange County! I have been going here for years and I love everything about this place. They have a great variety of food, sweets, and snacks. I highly recommend a pupusa revuelta and the chicken tamales!

It doesnt look like much from the outside but don’t pass this place up. The pupusas are the same as the ones I’d always order living in Nicaragua and the tacos with there homemade tortillas are amazing. Try the Campechanas/steak and chorizo ones! The yucca fries are also great. They have delicious, quick, reasonably priced food.
