I ordered the grilled tilapia fillet that comes with rice and beans, some lettuce/tomato (not shown) and pico de gallo. I also ordered a steak pupusa (left). I definitely liked the large piece of fish which was seasoned well, and really enjoyed the rice (wish it came with a little more rice!). I will say I'm not a *huge* fan of pupusas themselves.. They're a little thick for my taste. But the generous cheese and steak inside was good. If you like pupusas, I'm sure you will like there's. I do think that the tilapia meal would be better served with some kind of sour cream. I was glad I had some on hand at home. So maybe order some extra if you go. The service here was very nice. The woman up front was in a wonderful mood and was very helpful when I didn't know what to order. The ambiance of the place is very casual. This is for the most part a "grab and go" type location from what I could tell, but there is seating available.

We ordered the 3-pupusa combo with 2 sides for $17.40, which was totally worth the price. We tried the pork and cheese, squash and cheese, edible flower with cheese, and grilled steak with cheese. Every single one was so good. It was my first time trying edible flower with cheese, and it ended up being my favorite. Super flavorful and generously packed with filling. For the two sides, I got yuca frita and rice and beans. I liked how hot n crispy the yuca frita was and the rice and beans were delish. The Salvadoran horchata was HUGE and cost $5.90, which felt very reasonable for the size. Overall, everything was delicious, and I'll definitely be coming back whenever I'm craving pupusas.

I also tried their Jamaica drink it was refreshing without being overly sweet. I finished the meal with a desert called nuegados which is basically yuca that is fried and dipped into a syrup.

I love how huge and thick the pupusas are. $4.50 for a pupusa. 2 pupusas is enough for me and I am stuffed! I love supporting small businesses and this restaurant really makes the best pupusas. The restaurant feels very homey like you came over to eat at your grandma's. The red sauce is mild and very good. Their green sauce has a lot of spice to it, so i usually just add the red sauce and the salad (curtidos) on top of my pupusas. We also got their Nuegado pastry which is a salvadorian fried yucca fritter. I really liked it and it was nice to end the meal with a good dessert. The staff are all super nice and they do take card. Easy shared parking in a plaza.

DO NOT HESITATE - SUPPORT CRISTINA'S…read more Coming across Cristina's was a bit of a happy accident - I was on the west side and in the mood for pupusas, and Cristina's was nearby. When we walked in, there were a couple of tables filled and 2 groups of people waiting in line. We waited in line before we were asked if we were dining in or taking out, at which point we were prompted to take a seat. We took a while to nail down our order but once we did, it was smooth sailing. Our server brought out our drinks, as well as cutlery, and sauces. The pupusas took a while (freshly made and to order, plus many to-go orders) That said the wait was SO worth it. Aside from the pupusas my mom makes these are the BEST I've had in Arizona. They didn't skimp on the fillings and they were burnt or undercooked. They were just right! The curtido was fairly standard (I just wished there was a little more of it) - and I wish the salsas were spicier (but I am also conscious that not every culture has spicy foods). I WILL be back, and I strongly encourage you to give them a try. --- Honestamente las mejores pupusas que e comido en un restaurante en el estado. Recomendadas!!
