Pupusas de rebueltas
Liz Layla D.

The we rice is still horrible for the 6th time. I only come here for the food not for the service. Today I got the drink spilled on me which is ridiculous. The attention the waitress gives is a zero. They don't even greet you or don't even check on you to see if everything is ok. Like I mentioned before the owner here doesn't read yelp reviews but doesn't do anything with the customer service

This place was not at all what i expected. The food was so cheesy and had absolutely no flavor. I am never going back. It's hard to find a decent place around here. If you can avoid this place do it. I recommend going to Carls Jr over this place.

Decided to give this Authentic Pupuseria a try. I ordered two Pupusas Revueltas which were nicely filled with cheese/meat. The restaurant was busy so I waited a while for my food , it was worth it!

This was the first time I had ever tried pupusas. I was referred to this place by two co-workers who highly recommended it. It was only 5-10 minutes away from my work so I decided to try it. It's a little hole-in-the-wall that's located next to a Hookah Smoke Shop. When I first walked in, there was only one other table being occupied by a family. They have about 8 booths total, and a TV playing. It appeared to be a husband & wife establshment (husband is the greeter/cashier/server, wife is the cook). The menu does not come in English so I asked him which pupusas he recommended. He was very helpful and brought out the cabbage and salsa to put on top! I got one queso con frijoles (bean & cheese) and one rueveltas (beef, bean & cheese). they were a fairly decent size with lots of fling inside! I was only able to eat 1-1/2 of them. They are also reasonably priced. I believe 2 pupusas and 1 coke came out to $6. I would definitely recommend this place if you're craving good pupusas in the Anaheim area.

As good as the food is, the rude service makes it not worth it. The person there didn't miss a chance to be condescending or to "correct" us

Their huevos rancheros are another favorite of mine and are always satisfying. I've brought several friends and family members here over the years, and every one of them has enjoyed the food. If you're looking for authentic, flavorful pupusas, this is definitely the place to visit. Just keep in mind that the food is made fresh, so there can be a bit of a wait. In my opinion, it's absolutely worth it. The owners are also warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind, which makes the experience even better.

There was only one family whose order was ahead of mine and my food was out in around 10 minutes. I don't know why but the woman who took my order only offered it as a to-go order even though there was plenty of seating and it could've been nice to sit inside given how hot the day was. I got a cheese pupusa and it came with the curtido and salsa. It was only $4 which is a steal for a meal nowadays. It came out very fresh, including its toppings which helped cut through the heaviness of the cheese and corn. I thought the corn part of it was a little too thick on the sides but it was still a good meal.

I never had a real authentic pupusas before so this was my first time trying it. Today, I went here with my boyfriend and we both order queso con frijoles (cheese & beans) & pupusas de chicharron con queso (pork rinds & cheese). I love their salsa really good kick and spicy. Queso con frijoles: The pupusas were perfectly golden and filled to the brim with melted cheese and savory refried beans. Each bite was a delightful blend of flavors and textures. The masa was soft and slightly crispy on the outside, while the filling was rich and comforting. Paired with the tangy curtido (pickled cabbage) and a drizzle of salsa roja, they were an explosion of taste that I couldn't get enough of! I would give it a 5/5 best pupusas I have for this one. pupusas de chicharron con queso: pupusas has a lovely golden color. I was a bit surprised to find that they were served with some pork rinds, which I wasn't prepared for. I'm so used to seeing pork rinds in chips not in food. I'm not really used to that ingredient, so it added a layer of flavor that just wasn't to my personal taste. I would give it a 3/5 since I'm not used to pork rinds in pupusas if you like pork rinds cooked in pupusas then this dish is for you! We got it in takeout & took 5 minutes to wait. The service was fast & employee is very nice and friendly. There is plenty of parking. The store is very spacious, clean, and great atmosphere for a Salvadoran restaurant. I would definitely come back here to get some delicious pupusas!

Food was alright have had better ones and better service. Ladies in the back just kept laughing and not seem to have any sense of urgency to get the orders out. The cup where my friend was served his horchata had a funky smell. Spent $41.19 and honestly never coming back. Heads up if you come here just know you'll be waiting a while, I must add the place was empty no customers.

They have a local feel when you walk inside. There is a little bit of a wait, and I think they make the food to order, so it's hot and fresh when you receive it. I recommend that if you plan to take out, call ahead to place your order to save time. They are known for their pupusas, which I got on my first visit. I was curious after reading some of the positive reviews. I ordered the revuelta and chicken with cheese. Both had great flavors and would consider getting them again. The flavorful, crispy empanadas were among my favorites. I got the carne (beef) and spinach with cheese empanadas and loved them. The perfectly fried shell and flavorful filling. Their Salvadoran tamales are prepared in the traditional style, with a flavorful filling and soft, moist masa, wrapped in banana leaves rather than corn husks. I love Mexican-style tamales (especially homemade), so this was a new experience trying Salvadoran-style tamales. I think most people will order takeout, but there's a moderately sized dining area with tables. It has a local feel and a pleasant atmosphere. The staff was kind and provided great service. The prices are fair for the quality of the food. I still can't believe I waited this long to visit Nancy's. I can't wait to come back and try other items on the menu. Note: There is a little charge for using credit cards, so cash would be better if you want to avoid the CC charge.
