The parking lot is a little small (pro tip: go around the round about to get to the actual entrance to the lot, the other entrance is blocked off), but it is totally worth the effort. I tried the horchata...huge glass and has incredible floral notes that I've boy had in other versions. 100% recommend! I also tried the cheese and the pork/cheese pupusas. Light, soft and completely delicious, the accompanying cabbage and carrot slaw was acidic and bright. Definitely delicious and the prices are super cheap. The salsas are very authentic, the green one being my favorite. I can't wait to bring people back here. The decor is simple and very clean, and there is a takeout area as well as some seating. The service was very fast and friendly. I'll definitely be back!

I've been catching a bite here periodically for several years now, whenever I've needed a quick pupusa fix, and while the offerings are nothing extraordinary, I'm delighted they have become a mainstay, and right down the street from Iroquois Park. Pre-pandemic they proved to be very popular, and it wasn't unusual to see every table full. As I write this, they are take-out only. The prices are arguably too low. I sometimes feel like I'm cheating them.

Our host patiently answered questions as a friend and I discussed our options for lunch We ordered at the counter looking into the kitchen, where we could see the food preparation. Our shared meal was two empanadas and two pupusas. (See picture). The order was called out when it was ready. We got a few spoonfuls of green and red sauces and marinated vegetables, and then carried everything to our table. We started on the pupusas. These were covered with shredded lettuce, grated cheese and a drizzle of white sauce. Cooked on the griddle, the masa (dough) surrounds your choice of cheese; cheese and meat; or cheese, meat and bean filling. The cheese and shredded meat filling was mild, soft and subtly flavored -- quite nice. The empanadas were fried, giving a crispy outside layer over soft interior dough. It was a good amount of meat and cheese filling with the beef empanada more flavorful than its shredded chicken cousin. I think the spicy heat of the the condiment sauces provided some "kick" and balance to the mild flavor of the lettuce and grated cheese layered over this dish. While I did not see prices posted, I thought the prices were reasonable when we settled our bill. There was a $6 minimum to use a credit card. Overall it was a tasty meal and pleasant experience.
