Bean cheese pupusa
Patti C.

Seen this beautiful new truck at the 711 parking lot on Abbott ave Milpitas so I ordered a bean and cheese Pupusa about 5.50$ they made it to order with Sauce and salad it was really authentic and delicious I will be going back to try more items the lady taking my order said they are at this site every day

Recently ordered delivery from here since I love pupusas! I ordered 3 of them: bean and cheese, bean cheese and pork and a jalepeno cheese. They are a good size for the price. The jalapeño cheese lacked flavor, but the others were yummy. I also ordered the garlic shrimp, which came with rice when beans. The beans were good. Texture of the rice was good, but lacked flavor and the garlic shrimp was good. I wish they would give a little more shrimp given the price, but was overall a good meal.

Pupusas are GREAT! Believe me. I just shouldn't have to call 22 times to order (and still no answer). Disappointed on that. Update: They reached out and explained the issue. Thank you.

Chicken soup
Aisling S.

Food: Pupusas were tasty! I got the loroco/cheese, which tasted good. I wish there were a little less cheese and more loroco but it was still really good. The crudito that comes with it is amazing and definitely stand out as top notch! It has the right amount of vinegar and some spices (not spicy hot). Pupusas price was very reasonable. We also shared the Salvadorian chicken soup. I wasn't sure what to do here but we basically put the chicken in the soup with all the sauce and limes and rice. It tasted good, and with all the sauce was definitely a little spicy but had the right amount for me. The handmade tortillas on the side were a bit thicker than I would have liked. Generally could have done without the tortillas although appreciate the homemade effort. Overall I liked the dish but it was a bit pricey at $20 but it did come with a lot of components so I can understand the price. The agua fresca (or they call it agua de fruta) was amazing! Definitely get this! The menu is pretty extensive and I think they might benefit from specializing, since I saw amazing components but it felt like they were trying to do too much and not all of it had the same bar. Service: it was good! The person who took our order did explain the soup came with a plate so that was helpful. Food came out pretty quickly. Ambiance: this definitely feels like you stepped into another country and that's great. Can't comment on whether it's authentic but I enjoyed the experience of feeling like I wasn't in the US. It's a little noisy inside, but felt surprisingly calm for being off a busy intersection. We'll definitely be back for the pupusas and agua de fruta! And perhaps I'll try some other things.

Vegan Bowl
Shristy A.

Veg/vegan reviewer: oh! So worth it. Absolutely loved the fresh and flavorful vegan burrito bowl and the veggie burrito. These were so filling and tasty. It was a sumptuous lunch for less than $20, I am happy soul! I'd ordered a delivery so cannot comment on the ambiance yet but I need to eat here soon again.

Curtido
Samantha C.

Checked this place out for their pupusas a couple of times so far while walking around the neighborhood with my boyfriend and tried their jalapeno, loroco/cheese, revueltas, beef, and pork pupusas. Compared to the place I usually go to, this has a much thinner, floppier dough with a good amount of filling, especially for the cheese filled options. The curtido that comes with it needs more vinegar and oregano, but it was still refreshing with the greasiness of the pupusas. I will say that the salsa that comes with the order is amazing as are their refried beans and rice. I can definitely see this being a regular spot and I look forward to trying the rest of their menu items. Our takeout orders so far are typically 10-15 minute wait and the staff are pretty friendly.

Caldo de Pollo!

Very yummy food. I love Salvadoreño food and this place has all the right items. The tamales were smaller then expected but so delicious.

Ok so I've wanted to try this spot for longer then I care to admit. Being vegetarian it can be hard…read moreto find options at spots who use mostly meat on the menu, so I kept it simple: bean and cheese pupusa for myself and chicken tamale for the wife. The service was nice and welcoming, the wait for the food real, lol. You are getting fresh cooked though, so it's like right out of your kitchen at home!! In terms of food quality, I was blown away, the pupusa was really great! Wife also stated the tamale was top notch. I do recommend this spot and will be back for more!!

Stopped by here as I was craving a burrito. $18 for a super burrito with not even grilled chicken…read moreavailable is not worth it. The only option was shredded chicken which looked VERY dry and with no flavor. When you walk in its hard to distinguish where to order from considering your typical menu is NOT where it should be. The ladies are hard at work and it took some time to even notice someone wanting to order. She was rude to tell me thats it coming when the other worker asked to confirm my order number. I have to say the burrito took FOREVER to make. I also noticed they use the same spatula to stir different meats on the grill. A huge red flag if you do not eat beef!! ALSO the lady who took my order didnt wear gloves to grab the burrito off the grill. I don't know it this is normal but the menu doesnt show the prices of the items on the big board which can really throw you off on what you want vs what you can honestly afford. Not for me personal but to those who are being mindful of what to order. The previous reviews don't lie. Would I come back here again? Absolutely not!
