Authentic, delicious food served by a friendly, generous staff. Order double what you think you'll need—they're that amazing!Authentic and very delicious food, with friendly and generous employees. Order twice as much as you plan to eat, because the pupusas are so delicious that there is no doubt that you will want more!

It's my first time trying the Pupusa and I think it was good. It is even better with the coleslaw. I ordered cheese and beans. The order is made on the spot and since we came during lunchtime, we had to wait for 20 minutes. There's a few benches you can sit and wait but since it was cold outside, we waited in the car. It's just a food stand but they kept the surrounding clean.

Read all the great reviews online and wanted to give it a try, I avoid all chains and fast food on our travel routes. Freshly made ‘pupulus’ made from scratch with tlc, a corn patty style pancake filled with chicken and beans and cheese. Very friendly service they gave us 2 free for the first time. We ordered 10 (for 2 people) it’s only $2.50 each and it was still piping hot for hours served with homemade red sauce and slaw. Definitely worth the detour off Hwy - good to know for future we could have called the order in. You must try, there is an outdoor table.

Stopped here for a quick lunch. I ordered 3 traditional & a horchata drink. They are made to order so I waited in my car. The restaurant is cash only and you order at the side window.

I haven't been able to find a pupuseria anywhere else in Pennsylvania, I first had Pupusas in El Salvador with the military and have been searching for a place closer to me ever since. Let me tell you, Pupuseria Salvadorena does not disappoint. I have only had their pupusas with cole slaw and sauce but it is a great, cheap option for lunch and a true hidden gem in the city.

So good! Tasty....hot sauce and slaw on point. Pupusas made fresh and always great. Service with a smile too!

I absolutely love this place. Whenever we have company from out of town we order from here because it’s unique and delicious. I start dreaming of the papusas every few weeks and they never ever disappoint. My husband would love for them to bring the tacos back but I’m so hooked on the papusa that I don’t care if it’s the only thing they serve. Would give 10 stars if I could.

I have fallen in love with the pupusas and cortido. Always so fresh made. Call ahead to order as they make them to order, not ahead of time. Basically a carry out . There are a few picnic tables.

Would highly recommend! The woman behind the counter was so nice and the food was delicious! If we are ever back in this area we would definitely stop by again. Cash only so make sure you stop at the ATM before!
