I ordered several pupusas and the calabacita relleno from here through Uber Eats. Prices were very…read morereasonable and the food arrived still very hot. My pupusas filled with cheese beans and loroco were very filling and the calabacita platter was the same. I definitely preferred the taste of the pupusas as the calabacita needed a strong sauce for taste so I ended up using the red and green salsas from the pupusas. However, even though I marked for utensils the restaurant did not provide me any. I don't know if that was a glitch in communications between Uber Eats and the restaurant, but it made it a pain to go hunting for plastic silverware at a quiet hotel.

The rice was okay, no complaints. Price was $35 which I thought wasn't bad for the amount of food I got. I shared it with my partner and we each ate 4 pupusas each and we were completely stuffed. Would definitely go back to try more items on the menu!

The yuca frita con chicharrones was satisfying. Seems like a nice hub for Salvadoran folks to meet up, get Salvadoran products, and get a taste of home. I saw lots of people come into the market area to shop while we enjoyed our meal. We had lots of leftovers to enjoy over the next couple of days. Prices are reasonable, and portions are generous and delicious. I didn't get to b try the soup but I'll be back for it!

We subsequently ordered another basket of chips because we were still waiting for our food. My food,Seafood fajitas, was tasty. The seafood was fresh. The peppers were not cooked enough. The chicken flautas were flavorful, but the chicken was inconsistent across the 4 flautas; some of the chicken was over cooked. The menu listed piña, coladas, and margaritas, implying that there's alcohol served. They do not serve alcohol and did not specify that the drinks were non-alcoholic. The place was busy and the only waitress at the time also had to answer the phone. She had a pleasant demeanor even though it became very busy. By the time we left, a second waiter, also the delivery man, came to help her wait tables. The lunch crowd was rowdy, so it is not a good place to have a lunch meeting/conversation. There was a beautiful aquatic mural on one of the walls. I was surprised when I received my bill and there were hidden charges: $2.00 for the 2nd set of chips and $1.00 for the to go box. The waitress should have mentioned that these items would require a charge.

I was already kind of full but the entrees we got were also very delicious. I wish I knew how to cook fish or chicken that juicy but keeping the outside crunchy-crispy. 10/10 for all the food. Idk why but the music was so upbeat and it kept me feel rushed for some reason but that might be just me! Haha The service was great, the water kept getting filled and they were very attentive. Would definitely come back again!

4 Stars for dine-in. 3 Stars for delivery…read more I think this is the only Pupuseria in Astoria & am very happy about that! Used to go to the restaurant Mundo in this spot years ago. It's a cozy space just a block from the N/Broadway stop & in the heart of a busy few blocks with a lot of restaurant, cafe, bar, & grocery options. Sometimes I forget about this spot because it's just off the avenue, but it's worth a visit! Have dined in (outdoor seating during the summer) & ordered take-out (placed in-person) before. Usual order are Pupusas (chicharron & loroco + cheese - a tasty herb, like little buds that taste basil/oregano-like), Mojito, Pomegranate juice, Marañon juice (cashew apple fruit - like apple + pineapple). Everything was tasty, fresh & well made. The red sauce (bits of oregano) & curtido (pickled cabbage & carrots, a few chilies) with the pupusas are a must! But 3 Stars for a recent delivery (Sunday evening), the quality of the pupusas weren't great (thick), the Elote Tamale (sweet corn tamale with sour cream) was soggy & tasted tinny. Not sure if it was from the foil and/or it had a leak when it was being boiled. Maybe this item isn't ordered often. Good leak-free packaging for the delivery though - lots of tape! 5 Stars for the female UberEats worker who delivered by bike (in December)! I'll stick to in-person ordering & pick-up (the pupusas take a little time to make, but worth it) & hopefully the quality improves. The service & staff has always been great and it's a cute restaurant for a date or even families!

I asked about any lunch specials and the waitress said they didn't have any which I found very strange. I said no worries and ordered 2 pupusas and a canned soda. Pupusas were dry on the outside and mushy on the inside, not cheesy but mushy almost watery. I love pupusas and order them regularly, but left half of one uneaten. Also The waitress never once came to check up on me. Still left her a cash tip on a $10 bill and no "thank you, no ay muchas gracias, no que tenga buen dia"..nada de nada. I'm Latina and love eating at mom and pop places because the wait staff are warm and the ambiance feels like home to me. This restaurant does have a lot of bible verses on the walls maybe they should have focused on improving customer service and less on arts and crafts. Oh well, it was a miss for me.
