    There was a couple pieces of hair in my pupusa loved coming to this place until now .. not sure who the cook was

    Only food we got at the table. Which was actually good.  Albondigas soup.

    Cinco de Mayo hell. Wow! 2 hours and 40 minutes and we finally get food and it's cold! I don't ever know how to review this. We walked in at 6.. Waited about 20 minutes to get a table. No worries..It's Cinco de Mayo. Grabbed a seat at the bar and ordered a couple margaritas. The smell of the establishment smelt of stale alcohol. (I've been a bartender for years and know the smell well.. Comes from insufficient cleaning). But alcohol kills everything right? So drinks in hand we get seated with our group. They didn't have enough menus so we ordered more drinks and graciously waited for menus to become available. When we finally got menus, we ordered fajitas. An hour and a half passed by... No waitress. Mind you, other tables that came after us have come and went. We went to the front and said, what's up? We were assured by owner food was coming out. Several minutes later food finally came out (2 hours 40 minutes late!) And it was cold! I'm not paying $25 for cold food! I held the fajita meat in my hand, it was that cold. I sent it back. What a joke! Management... It's a holiday that is celebrated in America (Even though we were celebrating a birthday). Get it together! Have a small menu that's easy to get out in a timely manner at set holiday prices! Only reason I'm giving two stars is that we did enjoy the marriacha band. And the bathrooms were clean! Sadly this is our friends bimonthly Latin food stomp. We won't be back!

    Delicious delicious pupusas! Excited to go back and try the other items on the menu now. Please note it does take some time for the food to be ready, as everything is cooked fresh. I think long preparation time is also a cultural thing (I've encountered it at many el salvadorean restaurants). I'm not knocking any points off for this, you'll just need to adjust your expectations.

    Stopped in to order food to go. Fast service and waited about 10-15 minutes for the food. Ordered pupusas revueltas and pupusas de arroz con frijol y queso. Both were delicious and warm when we arrived home. Packaged well and came with plenty of curtido and salsa! Inside of restaurant was clean and very bright and welcoming. Parking is limited on the small shopping center its in.

    I'm a guy who loves the oddballs so naturally I'm in a tiny, unknown restaurant and when they offer uncommon versions of the pupusas I like.... I'm sold. Camarones- Delicious Queso y Jalapeno-Please and Thank You The ensalada drink was a heaping, juicy pile o' fruit. They didn't bother to slice 'em small enough that they'd fit through the straw so they serve you a spoon too. It's more like a fruit salad in a cup than at any Salvadoran place I can remember. Service was super chill and for about $5 you can walk out happy and full. My kind o' place.

    We really loved this place. Let's begin with customer service. We had amazing customer service while being there. I had ordered an horchata meanwhile we waited for our pupusas and I loved their horchata! Sooooo delicious!! We ordered the pupusas which was queso (cheese) and revuelta (cheese, pork and beans). I felt they weren't as greasy as other places. They have different sizes of pupusas so make sure you ask! We enjoyed the revueltas more than the cheese ones. It had perfect quantity inside the pupusa. We will definitely be going back! Parking is very limited so it can get a little frustrating when it is full.

    Traditional Salvadorean Cuisine in the SFV!…read more Our first time trying Salvadorean food at this family owned restaurant in Reseda. Carlos gave us some great recommendations so we ended up trying pupusas for the first time. It's made with a homemade corn dough. It's thicker than a regular corn tortilla and stuffed with ground pork and cheese. They have a variety of fillings. You can add salsa roja, a flavorful tomato-based sauce or habanero sauce. Served with Curtido, a tangy, fermented cabbage slaw. So crispy, cheesy and filling. It came burning hot - I could barely hold it. But, I would definitely order this again! We tried Desayuno Típico, a traditional Salvadoran breakfast, which came with casamiento (beans and rice mixed together), Salvadorean style chorizo, fried plantains, 2 eggs, avocado, fresh cheese and Salvadorean style sour cream and homemade corn tortillas. Tip: Bring Cash. 4% to use credit card

    Came to this little whole in the wall a while back and saw the high rating and had to check it out…read more The food was delicious they Salvadorian chorizo with the crema and plantain was delicious, had to get a pupusa on the side just to satisfy the craving and it did not fail to impress. The servers welcomed you in like family and treated you as such. I felt very welcomed and would definitely come back for another breakfast combo it was delicious and for 15 dollars. Not bad at all.

    If you're craving authentic Salvadoran comfort food made with love -- this is the spot!…read more The pupusas were perfection -- handmade, and stuffed generously with rich, savory fillings. I got the beans one, soooo good! Crispy on the outside, soft and melty on the inside... chef's kiss. Paired with the fresh cabbage salad and salsa, every bite was full of flavor. The pan con pollo was just as amazing -- tender, well-seasoned chicken with fresh veggies and bread that soaked up all the goodness. So hearty and satisfying! And don't skip the atole -- warm, comforting, and perfectly balanced. It felt like a hug in a cup You can truly taste the authenticity and care in every dish. Portions are generous, prices are great, and the overall vibe is welcoming and comforting -- like a home-cooked meal away from home. 10/10 Highly recommend if you love flavorful, authentic Salvadoran food.
