Vchos 2 - Pupusas. Spoiled curtido. Yuck! - Food Trucks Near Me

So a coworker invites me to a Thanksgiving party. The spread was what looks like Costco chicken, bread, and lettuce. Of course I give him a hard time but he explains to me that this is a traditional sandwich from El Salvador. I'm thinking... right buddy. The bread was rock solid and the chicken was the texture of dust. The only moisture was coming from the lettuce. Fast forward many years and a different coworker explains that there really is a traditional sandwich but what I ate was an abomination. I figure to be fair, I give it another shot. I happen to come across Vchos while walking around Downey night market. Oh wow! I get it. Traditional sandwiches are definitely a thing. Their pan con pollo is outstanding! The bread, chicken, beats?, cabbage?, lettuce and sauce really bring everything together to become one of the top 5 sandwiches I've ever had. I know their sign says pupuseria but don't sleep on the pan con pollo, you will regret it. read more

PUPUSAS FOOD TRUCK (and of course pupusas were our favorite of everything we ordered) Food is very filling!! 3 items shared between the 2 of us didnt look like much but we were stuffed! ---revueltas pupusa: pork, beans, and cheese, yummmmm especially the caramelized fillings oozing out ---rib eye street tacos: the size of these and the cubed meat didn't remind me of street tacos but the hubby enjoyed these ---chicken pastelito: kind of reminded me of a empanada. Not bad but by the time we ate it, it wasnt crispy anymore Would love to try more of the pupusas! Wish they had a different salsa though read more

I ordered lunch from this food truck the other day and my low rating comes down to three three things: 1) I had to wait 20 minutes, for placing my order to receiving my food. There were only four people in front of me when I placed my order and they should have been able to do better than 5 minutes per. 2) I ordered three sliders, fries, and a bottle of Mexican Coke. It was a lot more expensive than the cans of Coke and always worth it. When they gave me my order, they insisted on giving me a can of regular Coke. Good thing I kept my copy of the receipt. 3) The fries were undercooked and inedible. There was a fourth thing, involving stomach distress later that day. However, I can't be sure it was related to my lunch so I can't add it to the list. Anyway, if you're in a place with other options, maybe you should take one of them. read more

Came to street truck Tuesday in cypress and was super excited to try this food truck. I have been eyeing it and was looking forward to the pupusas! They were steady for sure so it did take a little time to order and pick up. Everything was fresh made to order! Receive everything piping hot and oh it smell wonderful! Got the 2 pupusas of chicken spinach cheese and pork and cheese. Added plaintains for $1 more. This came with cole slaw and house salsa as well. Definitely can say the filling was not lacking but I think I tasted a lot more cheese than the meats and it was thicker than expected. The plaintains I love, sweet and exterior crunch. I mix everything with the coleslaw and it provided a crunchy acidic taste to off set the cheesiness of the pupusas. Also tried their yuca con chicharron. This one I was overly excited for. It hot and fresh and a generous portion good for sharing. I only wish the chicharron wasn't as chewy and a bit more with crunch. The yuca I wish was fried in smaller pieces without the roots as it became tough and dry to eat after a while. Even topping this all with lime and tomato sauce it came with, I didn't finish it all so a bit a disappointed. Overall I go back for the pupusas and plaintains. Support those food trucks! Service was good, no doubt everything made with care and fresh rss utmost importance! read more

We wanted to try this place out after seeing a social media review, it looked amazing! We pulled up and there was a line with about 5 people in front of us and several people standing around waiting, it took about a half hour to get to the order window we placed our order for 5 people where the bill was $92 ( no prices on the menu) After we ordered they said come back in an hour.. wait what!?? It's a Food truck as in fast food. . Ok we walked around the mall for an hour and went back where we waited another 15 minutes.. ok I'm thinking this is going to be amazing food! We drove home and dug in .. The pupusa's were mediocre, nothing special! Just ok.. the steak on the carne asada fries was dry, flavorless and huge chunks! We trashed that. The plantains were dry and flavorless as well.. huge disappointment! I don't see what the hype is! I'll never go back. read more

Bf and I got pupusas, loaded steak fries, and the plantain plate Pupusas - HIT THE SPOT Fries - fries and sauce were good but the meat lacked flavor Plantain plate - bf liked but I wasn't a fan :/ it was bland and not that sweet, which I thought it was supposed to be sweet so it threw me off Would come again but just for pupusas tbh read more

Not bad, not bad. First time having Salvadoran pupusas. Randomly stumble into Lakewood center where there was an area set up for food trucks and found this. The pupusas was pretty tasty. It kind of reminds me of pizza. The cheese is very stretchy and chewy. Kind of greasy but taste delicious. It took about 20 min for them to make the order. read more

Takes a while for your order and seems a bit pricy for a food truck, but I guess that is the price we pay that's days for prepared food. Ordered the two pupusa combo with plantain. I really enjoyed the pork, bean and cheese pupusa but the bean and cheese was a bit plain. Seemed like a lot more cheese in the one with pork as well. The plantain was very mushy. Not sure if that's how they are supposed to be but I couldn't eat it. Five stars for the pork one and three stars for everything else. read more

I heard so many great things about this place and I was so excited to try the Vchos pupusas. However, when I got here I waited an hour for subpar pupusas. The pupusas were doughy but the fillings had decent flavor (revueltas) The curtido was extremely salty and bordering on inedible. The tomato sauce was the best part of the dish and that's not a great thing. Overall it was a very disappointing experience and it frankly wasn't worth the hour wait and price (they are on the pricier side) You can find better and cheaper pupusas literally anywhere else in LA county. read more

Horrible customer service where they charge you and then they tell you it is a 20 minute wait that end up being about 45 minutes. Of note when I went to check at 30 minutes they said it was not ready and to go back in a few minutes. I went back at about 40 minutes and had to knock on the trucks window to get their attention. Then the lady said she kept on calling my name and was very rude. When I had the chicken spinach cheese pupusa order, there was not much chicken and the bean and cheese pupusa there were not many beans. The service was horrible and the food was not good. I do not recommend this place. read more

My husband spent 2 years in El Salvador and missed pupusas with a sort of desperation I've seldom seen. He orders them everywhere they're available, and has become somewhat of an officianado...and of all the places he's been to try them, the Vchos trucks (particularly Vchos 2, since it's often close to us) make his absolute favorites. The revuelta are perfect, and he says they're indistinguishable from those he used to eat in El Salvador. They even have vegan pupusas to accommodate my son, and amazingly, they're just as delicious as all their other pupusas! Highly, highly recommended! read more

Pupusas are worth it here. Never had a pupusa with so much cheesy goodness. Pupusas are generously filled enough to do a good cheese pull. Kind staff following mask covering. Platano is prefect too. read more

I've had these pupusas before but today they were such a big disappointment. The pupusas were not great and the curtido and salsa were so salty! read more

I follow vchos on Instagram and noticed they there truck was 20 minutes away with traffic, so I got all excited grabbed my keys and left lol! I ordered 2 vegan pupusas (revueltas)with curtido. I've tried other vegan pupusas but at vchos this the closest to what I remember a regular pupusas tasted! No grease even that's what I remember liking lol! They also have other vegan options and of coarse the also sell regular pupusas I would highly recommend trying out the food here, you just got to look at when they post where they are going to be. read more

Papusas truck but the tacos are 5 stars! Tons of tender prime steak, topped perfectly.

Review #535 None Elite Squad Before I did this review I tried vchos 3 times and its definitely close to a 5 star truck..heres why. Just like every pupusa place you'll go to you'll notice every pupusa from every place taste different and this one definitely has a different great taste. The 1st time the pupusas were skinny and even though it had flavor there was nothing special about a more expensive pupusa. the 2nd time the same thing happened and decided im done and wouldn't go again. the 3rd time was yesterday but I kept my word..i didn't go but I got some brought to me by surprise and even though I was disappointed with the choice ..i got something magical..i got 2 of the most over stuffed pupusas I have ever seen. the filling was oozed out and all over and though looked sloppy it was so so so awesome. these pupusas were worth the price, curtido and tomato sauce was too little for the way I like them but if you ask for more they'll gladly hook it up according to what I was told yesterday. I follow them on Instagram and see their vids of oozed out cheesy and stretchy pupusas and thought they were fake and exaggerated but no.. Theyre Awesome and Highly recommended. so my final thoughts..yes they're items are pricier than your usual pupusa joint .. and if you don't live near old school river then the drive ends up being the same like if you drive to a pupusa joint But putting everything aside..these pupusas are a must..try it and review it. read more

Today the yucca was dry, I left a comment on their IG and my comment was deleted. The ordering system needs some tweeking as I shared my concern with the girl. She dismissed me and didn't pay attention to my complaint. On my online receipt it showed my whole order, when I went to pick up I was missing an item. I told the girl and she said that i orderd wrong, I asked how did I if my online receipt showed different. If there was an issue why couldn't someone contact me and tell me. They have 3 ways of contacting me via email,text and a phone call. But no they couldn't do that and they just gave me my order incomplete. Not happy with the food or service read more

I've been buying from this truck when it parks in Whittier. I've always enjoyed the food. Today was a disappointment. I don't know what happened. During Covid they always had great food. We ordered fried yuca con chicharron and it was terrible. The chicharron was fatty and soggy. Some pieces of yuca were hard (not cooked through) and the others were soggy (oil not hot enough when they were fried). The cashier was not in a good mood either. I hope they go back to normal. read more

I've purchased pupusas from their Garden Grove location on a Wednesday which shouldn't matter as it should be the same team. The pupusas had very little to no cheese. Luckily, I ordered loroco and cheese pupusas, I took bites of both pupusas at the same time so I could enjoy them a little bit better. Disappointing experience for overpriced pupusas. I reached out to the owner via email first and I was ignored. Then I reached out via IG and she deleted my comment. Unbelievable. read more

Sorry but after waiting 50 minutes for the chicharrón con yuca at this food truck at a school open house, I thought the flavor was going to be worth the wait but it was quite disappointing. Well we gave it a shot. read more

Great pupusas, rather quick serving time, but a bit too pricey. So far, everything we have tasted from Vchos truck has been great! Just pricey. read more

I highly recommend the steak fries they are so good .The food portions are are great size for the price.

Love love their pupusas but noticed recently they are super slow I placed online order and still had to wait 30 mins and another thing they don't wear mask even though they are in the truck they still handle our food :( read more

My wife is from El Salvador. She said she really tasted the authenticity. I recommend this spot without a doubt

I ordered the pupusas revueltas and they were delicious. I really liked that they are made fresh and quick. The ingredients of pork, beans and cheese are perfect along with the curtido and the sauce. I would drive the distance to eat their food again. read more

Amazing but a little pricey. I'm not use to paying $7 for two pupusas but they couldn't be better. I'v had the Spinach, Revueltas and Veggie one's, all great! They can vary in wait time, anywhere between 10 mins to 45 mins. I'm definitely becoming a regular for these guys to try out the rest of the menu. Don't forget to leave room for the Plantano Empanadas. read more

Delicious, order that steak fries and several pupusas. Never disappoint. Been here several times and the food and service is great. Will continue coming. read more

I was very excited to try the "famous" Vchos pupusas. But my excitement quickly turned to disappointment when my food was ready. I have never had pupusas so greasy in my life. The amount of oil or lard they use is excessive, I did not eat the food. The flavor was there, but with so much grease, I could not continue eating. And if that wasn't bad enough, when I commented on their IG, they blocked me. After reading many comments, I'm learning that I'm not the only one with the same complaint. To Vchos, learn to take criticism from your clients, and address the complaint that so many have. read more
