The food is enjoyable, but the consistency can vary depending on the chef. It seems to be influenced by the specific day of the week one visits.

Disgusting. They need to get inspected and shut them down. The salsa bar all looked old. The onion for the tacos in the bar smelled so bad rotten. The curtido for the popusas was slimy. I even told the front lady that it was bad and she got bothered. I’m going to report them this is not ok.

I’ll absolutely return for the outstanding chiles verdes and those incredible handmade corn tortillas—easily some of the best I’ve ever had.
However, the restaurant is losing return customers (including me bringing my wife or friends) because of the visibly neglected cleanliness. The entryway floors, walls, and windows are covered in long-accumulated grime that’s impossible to ignore. It immediately raises concerns about overall hygiene and detracts from the fantastic food.
To the owners: Please prioritize a deep clean, especially in the areas customers see first and last. Fix this, and I’d happily bring others (we travel frequently to Mexico and love authentic Latin American cuisine) and upgrade this review. Right now, the dirt is turning people away who would otherwise become regulars.

Got the special Carne Asada burrito. Excellent burrito, I have been to a lot of places and this is top 5 of all time. Salsa bar had some real spicy stuff, also more mild options. I had to ask for chips as rhey were not brought to my table and you order at the counter and you also pick up your food order at a separate counter. But food was excellent so far.

Enough already!! There will be no more tips on to go orders if you make me load up my own cortido and salsa. Maybe you should give me a discount for serving myself.

This place is really good if you are looking for tasty fresh pupusas don’t count on their curtido tho, it always looks and tastes like it’s days old. Prices and atmosphere in here are decent. If we are talking strictly pupusas I do recommend it, everything else not so much.

Delecious, convenient, great cost, lovely service. I was watching them in the kitchen handmake the sopes as we waited. Ten out of ten for a good convenient lunch or dinner thats also delicious. And great position size as well. Will go back when in Reno.
