    Cheese and spinach (left) cheese and shrimp(right)

    I placed a to go order, lady over the phone was very courteous and when I got there both ladies also greeted me. The walk up area is not very distinct, although there was a sign that read wait here to be seated, there is no counter to pay/to pick up...I tried there cheese and spinach and cheese and shrimp pupusas. So the pupusas are a nice size, a lil thick and generously filled. The flavor is lacking though, I'm not sure what it is, I do have a hunch though that it may be the cheese. I will certainly give them a try again though.

    Okay service is getting better and owner is more constantly in the restaurant the ladies are a little more nicer than before. Some do have their attitude but it got a little better and the food is still the same good loved my salvadorian food

    This was our first visit to this quaint local joint. Ambiance was better than I expected considering it urban Long Beach locale. Kiosco isn't a new establishment but is now in a better location with lots of uodated elements. Pupuserias here are world class, just take it easy with the cabbage topping if you're sensitive to that sort of thing. Service is very attentive and friendly. If you're near uptown Long Beach and have a hankering for something other than a burger, I highly recommend stopping in!!! Next visit will be for breakfast

    What the hell !! A hair in my food this is disturbing and disgusting what the hell are hair nets for ladies come on !!

    What the hell !! Hair in my food makes me wanna throw up . This is why they make hair nets .

    The photos on the wall to the left after walking in and being seated. Gives such an authentic vibe.

    LOOOVVVEEEDDDD THE PUPUSAS! Firstly, they are MASSIVE and Secondly, they are sooooooo flavorful! Some of the best I've ever had! They smell amazing and fill the restaurant with the amazing aroma. So mouth watering! The waitress who served us was super sweet & helpful with assisting us in deciding what to try despite the language barrier and we greatly appreciated that. Overall 10/10 would highly recommend!

    First time at this place. We went to eat just Popusas. They are a good size and their were really good too. They have newer options like Popusas con Camaron/asada/pollo. My only probelm was the Waiting time!!! for us was toooo long. We went to eat just Popusas. Other people came after us, got their food, finished their food and left and we were still waiting just a 4 popusas. Here are the current peices:

    Nice people. Good service. Good coffee. Large portions. We go there a lot. The restaurant is clean and they play music - but not too loud.

    The food is very authentic and they have a wide variety to choose from. The atmosphere makes me feel as if I were in El Salvador!

    Live music
    Kitchen open late

    Stopped at this location after our concert. No wait time to get seated. Sat down and ordered some…read morefood and beverages. Received our food in a timely manner. Food and Service was good. We really wanted to hear some latin music while we eat. We were dissapointed since the dj or live band was set to start late. It was already 1030pm, no music to vibe too. Just to give you a heads up, there are two locations. Long Beach and Costa Mesa. The one in Costa Mesa displays shows like Flocorica dancing and live latin bands. Long Beach, not so much Overall, the food, service and latin ambience was great. I would comeback and try again.

    If you want good paella, do not come here…read more This was honestly the worst paella I've ever had, which was really disappointing because the restaurant itself had a nice atmosphere and live music. We ordered a half seafood and half meat paella, with added lobster and pork belly. Unfortunately, the actual food was terrible. Main issues: * The bottom of the seafood side was completely black and burnt instead of having a crispy socarrat. There's a huge difference between crispy rice and burnt rice. * The lobster was severely overcooked, burnt, and tasted terrible. * The pork belly was an extra charge, but there was barely any visible pork belly in the dish. It honestly just looked like tiny bacon pieces. * All of the meat throughout the paella was severely overcooked. Positives: * Our waiter was very nice. * The ambiance was good. * The live music added a fun vibe. * It was my birthday, so they gave me a complimentary ice cream dessert at the end, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, none of that made up for how bad the paella itself was.
