“Excelente atención al cliente la comida muy deliciosa las pupusas las tienen que probar están riquísimas ☺️“

“Great service and good Pupusas !“

“Pupusas were very very good. I was craving them for a while and gave this place a try. I'm so happy I did. The man running the register was so nice to me and even spoke English which is a plus for a white girl like me who loves pupusas :) service was kind and quick, will be back soon!“

“Excellent service and the comfortable very tasty and above all fresh [Original] Excelente servicio y la cómoda muy sabrosa y sobre todo fresca“

“100% white boy here- just for context. I'm obviously not the right person to take pupusa advice from, but if you're asking in general- like is the food good? Dudes and dudettes listen up or read up I guess.... get you a couple pork/ cheese and maybe a jalapeño/ cheese (if you got hair on your external or internal peaches). It will change your life. Ask for the green sauce.“

“This is a 5 star establishment! Food is made FRESH every single day. Customer service is always amazing. The food is authentic and delicious. The horchata is great if you’re into that. People are giving this place a one star reviews because the wait time for FRESH food is somewhat long. But if it weren’t fresh then they would complain about that. Can’t ever satisfy people. Pricing is fair for the quality and service you get. Highly recommend

“The best pupusas I have ever eaten!!! ???The truth is I loved its flavor, the horchata is too similar to what is made there in El Salvador, the flavor it has is authentic, I loved the attention of the waitress, as well as the cooks, a good atmosphere, friendly and ready to serve their customers. Remembered 10/10“

“Muy rica comida y excelente atención al cliente.“

“Excelente servicio y la comida esta deliciosa súper recomendada son muy amables🙌“

“pupusas are the best in town place is small plain an simple .“

“Whether you dash your food or dine in, the food is absolutely delicious ?!!! My favorite are the pupusas (all of them, fajita, revuelta, been and cheese). The platano frito and frijoles with crema is also super tasty!! The ambience at Rio Lempa is like sitting at a little restaurant in El Salvador with all of the Salvadorean brands and items. The drinks are also little taste of El Salvador with traditional aguas. Love this place! Everyone that I've ordered pupusas for, loves them too, and get turned onto their food. Definitely try it out! You will be amazed.“

“The food is better than in other Salvadoran restaurants. The owners are very attentive and friendly. I think the place needs a spruce up or painting but it's not easy to invest so much when you're starting the business. I think little by little. It is important to put El Salvador in the spotlight and be able to offer the best service possible and hire people who can truly cook because our well-made food is super delicious.

Update: they moved to a better location. It's much better. It is cleaner and looks very good. The food is delicious and very good customer service.“

“I first noticed this restaurant when it was at another location, and always wondered what "pupusas" were. Let me tell you something, RUN! don't walk to this place!

Papusas are a magical combination of puffy tortilla, meat, and cheese (and possibly other things) that are served with a cabbage type coleslaw and a tangy hot sauce that pair perfectly together.

They are a fully authentic Salvadorian restaurant. They are now thankfully at a bigger - and nicer - location, which is conveniently near the intersection of 35 and 518 across from Texas First Bank.

They are all kind, and they can COOK! I absolutely fell in love with this place, and their prices are incredible to boot.“

“I always sit at the bar when I come here. The staff was very nice and attentive. I order the exact same thing every time I came and always leave immensely satisfied. The pupusas, the plantains, and the tamal de elote are my favorite.

Keep in mind that they do up charge for credit card transactions so cash is king.“

“These are the best pupusas in Houston. My family love them and order them frequently. They are delicious especially the ones with cheese and chicken. They don't have as much flour as others and are filled with so much flavor. They always sell them freshly made and there is a guarantee that you will enjoy their pupusas. Thanks!“

And by the way, they tell me the same thing, they come back very satisfied and smiling thanks to you for being one of the best restaurants“

Momma is what I call her she is a great Spanish cook.. I was able to get 6 tacos meat and cheese for under $ 15. Feed 4 people .She is on the right hand side before Bonham St .“
