I stopped by this place after the Mexico World Cup game even though we were supposed to go somewhere else to eat all because the exterior of this restaurant really caught my eye. This restaurant looks like something out of a dia de muertos picture- it's seriously super cool. As for the food, the pupusas were delicious and honestly really reasonably priced considering it's downtown San Jose. I have no bad things to say about this restaurant, hopefully I'm back again soon. read more

Entre Comales - Exterior - Fast Food Near Me - San Jose, California

My friends and I found this place online while we were visiting California, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. The employees were incredibly kind and welcoming, and they even offer a student discount, which was a nice surprise. The service here is what really stood out. It made us feel genuinely appreciated from the moment we walked in. The restaurant itself is cute and cozy, making it a great spot to sit down and enjoy a meal. As for the food, it was absolutely delicious. Everything we ordered was full of flavor and tasted fresh. The only small suggestion I'd have is that the pupusa could have used a little more salt, but that's a minor detail in an otherwise fantastic meal. I'd definitely come back the next time I'm in San Jose. read more

I was near downtown San Jose when I noticed a bright and inviting restaurant that caught my attention. Before going in, I asked a couple of people outside for recommendations, and they immediately suggested Entre Comales. I trusted their judgment, and I'm glad I did. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm smile and welcome from George. Or rather i say Jorge! I told him it was my first time there and that I was excited to try the pupusas everyone had been recommending. I ordered two revueltas, and Jorge was incredibly kind. He even offered me a complimentary pupusa and asked what kind I wanted. Since I had no allergies or preferences, I told him to surprise me with his favorite. He chose the garlic and chicken pupusa, and it was a great recommendation. The revueltas were absolutely delicious. The combination of beans, chicharrón, and gooey cheese was packed with flavor, and when paired with the sauce, it was even better. The garlic and chicken pupusa was amazing as well. The chicken was incredibly moist and flavorful from the very first bite. What stood out most wasn't just the food, but the hospitality. Jorge's kindness and genuine care made the experience memorable. I'd definitely come back again, not only for the pupusas but also to thank Jorge for such a wonderful meal and experience. If you're looking for great pupusas, whether you're with family, friends, or dining solo, this is the place. Jorge and his team will take good care of you. read more

Service was a little on the slow side, even though there was No lunch rush. Orders being made seemed prioritized to in house Diners. Food was well seasoned and meat was soft, but was a little too oily. Not sure if I'd go out of my way to stop by again. read more

Entre Comales - Foto op - Fast Food Near Me - San Jose, California

I was happy to try this new spot in downtown San Jose. They are located where Iguana's used to be. The interior looks very well decorated, painted in purple with lots of interesting pictures on the walls. They have a really good selection of pupusas. I tried the garlic and cheese, which wasn't overly garlicky, but it had a lot of cheese and good flavor. Their pupusas are a bit larger than average, and I think two of them would make a meal! They are $5 each, which seems like a bargain in this economy. We also ordered a super nachos to share, which were good, but they used cheese sauce and not cheese melted under a broiler. The staff is very nice and friendly. Food is made fresh to order. I will definitely be back to try some of the different flavors of pupusas! read more

And... months later this is still my go to spot for taco Tuesday special, my agua de pepino w/ chia seeds and some delicious pupusas. Great ambiance and even better employees shoutout to them for always making my visit pleasant. read more

Stopped by after road trippin' from LA and had such a great meal! The vibes are welcoming, the staff is friendly, and they were happy to answer all our questions. Plus, the music is poppin' and love the outdoor seating - what more can a girl ask for? I tried the spinach & cheese pupusa and the garlic & cheese pupusa with a side of rice- absolutely delicious! I inhaled all of it. Definitely recommend if you're in the mood for pupusas. read more

Entre Comales - Pupusas and rice. Yum! - Fast Food Near Me - San Jose, California

I had 2 pupusas , $5 each. I had the chicken and cheese and loroco and cheese. The curtido was good, the mild sauce was very mild, but still good. I would like to go back to try the bean & cheese and a sope. I just wish the staff was friendlier and more inviting. I waited a few minutes before someone knew I was there, but it's ok, it gave me a chance to decide what I wanted, but it would've been nice to be acknowledged upon entering. read more

I was there for the popusas, the popusas were delicious the only think that disappointed me was the cabbage (curtido) I feel it would have been better it had no flavor, otherwise the service and food were great. read more

A wonderful family moved in to the old Iguana burritozilla space and has made it a delicious place to get scrumptious pupusas. There is outdoor seating with accessible entrance but I didn't see another way to go up the stairs to order. There is a lot of indoor seating and right now it is decorated for the holidays. A huge win for me is that they were willing to make my pupusas without cheese (not all places are). The wait was about 7-10 minutes because they make the pupusas to order. They were very large and had a solid amount of filling. They were perfectly grilled and not greasy. The salsa is a little spicy and the curtido (cabbage topping) didn't have salt so I think that good improve a little. They use pinto beans I think, which is fine, but I prefer the black beans. They also sell Mexican classics like burritos, tacos, tortas, flautas, and gorditas. The service is super friendly- you order at a counter and they bring your plate to your table but you bus your own table. Cumbias on the surround sound make it festive and the vibes are fun! Definitely our new pupusa spot! read more

I ordered the jalapeño & cheese pupusa, the chorizo & papa pupusa, and the revuelta pupusa, and they were all so good. Everything came out super fresh and the portions were really good too. Each one was so filling, but my favorite was the jalapeño and cheese pupusa. The workers were all really friendly and helpful when I was trying to decide what to order, making my experience even better. There's also plenty of space inside and outside if you want to sit down and eat with your family. I would will be coming back! read more

Walked in around 1pm and took a look at the menu. Knew I wanted to try a papusa, and went with the revuelta (beans, cheese, chicharrón). It did NOT disappoint. Super flavorful, good size, and the service was quick and friendly. This spot doesn't look a lot different from the Iguana's that was here, but it definitely has a clean, new, fresh vibe. Try them out! read more

Saw this place pop ip on the DTSJ page I follow on instagram so decided to try it for lunch. They have pupusas and tacos. Let me just say the crown jewel here is the pupusas. The tacos are basic and the tortillas aren't handmade so they're nothing special, instead order several pupusas! The pupusas are made fresh and you can taste freshness. I got the papa & chorizo one and it was delicious. A ridiculous cheese pull and it comes with curtido (which was delicious even on its own) and salsa. They are a good size and for $4.95 each, it's a great price! read more

I recently saw that there was a new restaurant in place of Iguanas, whose owners retired. I liked how the owners of Entre Comales made brought their own style and colors to the restaurant to make the place stand on its own. I made a pit stop to grab dinner for my family and was pleased to find that Entre Comales offered pupusas! Finally, a pupuseria in the area. I was greeted by the friendliest employee. He was genuinely excited for me to try their pupusas, and he even offered me a complimentary cup of their hot chocolate that was delicious. He did such a great job hyping them up that I ended up buying different kinds to share among my family. That said, a pupusa was less than $5 each, which felt like such an incredible value especially these days. My entire order was less than $50 and included 5 pupusas (papas & chorizo with no cheese, papas & chorizo, cheese & garlic, cheese & zucchini, cheese & chicken), a street taco, a super taco, and chips with guac and salsa. I'm telling you... this was quite the steal. Can't even get a Doordash order for 2 people less than $50. The hype was real on the pupusas. I haven't had them for years, but they have made a comeback thanks to Entre Comales. I'm not a pork eater, so I tried the cheese & zucchini, cheese & garlic, and cheese & chicken. They were all tasty, but I must say that the cheese & zucchini was my favorite. Do not sleep on the salsas to dress up your pupusas. The red, green, and orange salsas were all excellent, and I also loved the fresh slaw that went with the pupusas. Knocking off a star since I did find the pupusas and chips to be really oily, but I'll be back to try their taqueria side of the menu. read more

Amazing food, great service, nice downtown vibe, and the place itself is nicely designed and decorated!

The pupusas were huge but so good! I recommend the jalapeno cheese if you like spicy, we also had garlic cheese and potato/chorizo. Also the carne asada quesadilla! Bomb! This all fed 3 people and we still had leftovers. The pupusa sauce was a little tame but I'm not sure how it's supposed to taste. Overall I was happy and I'll be back to try more! read more

We've gotten takeout from here a few times and it's hit or miss. Torta was way too salty. Pupusas are tasty though they fall apart easily. Today was especially annoying because we paid for 5 pupusas, but when we got home, we realized there were only 4 pupusas in the bag! Not cool. read more
