My husband and I both got caught by their delicious looking loaded steak fries but he definitely wanted to try their pupusa as well so we got both. The pupusa is huge. It's really hard to tell from the photo that I took, but it is enormous and my husband said that usually pupusa are dry and this one was very moist probably because it was a birria type. I tried it too even though I do not like masa and I thought it was really good and fresh. The loaded steak fries were amazing. It had a generous portion of steak and it was marinated so it was flavorful and the portion was very big. We wanted to try more of the green sauce because it kind of gets lost in the chipotle sauce but overall very good. There was kind of a wait to get our order..we ordered from the iPad, but when we got the food, we realized why it takes a little bit longer and it is because it is made fresh and very well. And I think most of their stuff is gluten-free, which is perfect for my husband. We have seen their food trucks around, but have never tried it but now we will make sure it's a regular spot. It's in the Haven city marketplace so seating is first come first serve but it's a nice and clean area. read more

Vchos - 1 BIRRIA & CHEESE PUPUSA - Salvadoran Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

See all

I had 2 revueltas pupusas and it consisted of all beans and it was undercooked. I was given very little cabage and when I requested a bit more to finish up my second pupusa they said they would have to charge me extra. Extra for cabage? wow! Anyway, I tossed out my second pupusa, it just did not taste good and without the cabage and red sauce I wouldnt be eating. I do not recommend this place at all, by the way I paid over $17 for 2 pupusas and a soda, expensive for not tasting good. My husband ordered bbq from the restaurant around the corner and that was delicious, I ate most of his food. Go there instead! :) read more

DELICIOUS. I was so full after just one pupusa (beans cheese pork). The skin on them was SO thin. They definitely are masters. Great sides that paired well with the sides given. read more

So initially I had ordered one bean pupusa and a vegan one with platanos. My mom brought the food home and I realized it wasnt right and instead two bean and cheese pupusas. I went back to the restaurant and used Google Translate to explained what happened. Immediately the ladies worked on my order and made it correctly while also giving me more plantains! Immediately super happy with the service and will continue to eat here. The pupusa were delicious especially the vegan one. read more

Food is good and made to order. Staff is always friendly and happy to answer any questions. Love the 2 Pupusas, I think for the price it is a good value since the pupusas are large. I always get 2 chicken and spinach or 2 revueltas. I've also ordered the Ube Empanada and the Platano Empanada and they are both delicious. If you have a sweet tooth, it does the job. One thing to note, is if you are crunched on time, I HIGHLY recommend you go ahead and do an online order. Wait times can be very long because food is made to order, and it will take up your whole 30min lunch break. So please keep that in mind when ordering for your lunch break. Other than that, this is a spot I frequently order from at least once a month for my pupusas. Hope the food quality stays the same, because it's delicious. read more

Great pupusas! Solid 4.5 stars for me. Their Revueltas (pork, bean, & cheese) were slightly greasier than other places I've tried but still delicious and packed with filling. You can tell they are made to order and came piping hot. That might explain the wait time because it took about 25 minutes to receive our food and it wasn't that busy. Overall, definitely satisfied my cravings. read more

Some of the best pupusas I've ever had. I went with a bean and cheese one and a pork and cheese one. Both were delicious and packed with filling. I also had the loaded steak fries. The fries were topped with a good amount of steak, which was tender and well seasoned. The food takes 10 to 15 minutes to come out, but it's well worth the wait to get them hot and fresh. read more

My first encounter with Vchos (Salvadoran cuisine) was at Haven City West Covina. This is my 2nd encounter with it at Haven City Rancho Cucamonga. This location must have been a food truck at one point because their paper wrapper has a truck on it and the word "truck" in their biz name. It was 15 mins before 9:00 PM closing time. The young gentleman behind the counter greeted me with a warm welcome and a smile... very nice and friendly. Thank you young man! They have pork, chicken, and shrimp pupusas. They also have dairy free, vegetarian, and vegan options. I saw a handful of specialty items... Salvadoran chicken sandwich, fried plantains plate, beef sliders, shrimp & potato tacos, loaded steak fries, fried or steamed cassava (it's a root vegetable), and chicken or plantain empanadas. Not a huge menu, but big enough to be enticing. Yum! I had chicken pupusa last time. It was the best flavor out of all flavors I got back then. I went with chicken pupusa again this time around in hopes it would be just as good if not better. WOW, the pupusas were huge in size and generously filled with chicken, spinach, and cheese! 2 pupusas for $10... it's a steal! They are indeed handcrafted from scratch with the freshest quality ingredients... I know because I saw them make the pupusas. Each set of 2 pupusas were packaged with a lightly fermented cabbage slaw (aka curtido) and salsa. Box was heavy! Oooh, loads of deliciousness for sure. It was good, but something was missing. I didn't get the great tasting flavor I got last time. It lacked seasoning or salt/pepper or something. I can't pinpoint it. Hence, 4 stars! I hope they figure it out. Highly recommend Vchos. I'll be back to try their other flavors of pupusas, revueltas, and specialty items. My eyes are on the shrimp & potato tacos LOL. Can't wait! read more

Was going to try another place in Haven City, but the line was too long, so came here where there was actually only one other family ordering ahead of us. There's the option to order at the kiosk but as I was standing there, Jeovanni motioned that he could take my order, so I made my way over to the register. He was helpful and quick in taking my order, gave me a pager and told me my order was number 2. The wait time was honestly kind of brutal. Granted, I was very hungry and it was getting quite warm inside Haven City. When we asked how much longer, we were told 2 minutes. But that was actually 10 minutes and the wait time total was about 25 minutes. I don't want to be too harsh on that as the pupusas were extremely fresh and steaming hot. They are clearly made to order, and not a moment before. I'd just suggest ordering prior to any "hangry" setting in, and you won't be disappointed. The pupusas revueltas were good, a bit more dense and greasy than I've had elsewhere, but the flavor was great. The curtido and salsa complimented them perfectly and had great flavor. I also added the fried plantains which paired with the meal perfectly. The price overall is reasonable as well. I'd definitely come back again. read more

Vchos - Salvadoran Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

Vchos is a Salvadoran spot that started as a food truck and now has a location at Haven City Market in Rancho, their second brick-and-mortar after HCM West Covina. Their unit is towards the back of the building with a large bright sign that says PUPUSAS. You can't miss them. They just soft-opened with limited hours (11-7 according to their IG). The pupusas are made to order and stuffed generously. They also give you a big portion of curtido, which I really liked. The salsas I got tasted more like bland tomato water, but the pastelito I ordered had a super flavorful crust, so it balanced out thankfully. The seasoning on that pastelito was amazing! I wasn't a fan of the loaded steak fries. The steak is braised and comes with more sauce, which made it a bit soggy for me. I think I just don't like braised meat on fries that aren't super crispy, but the flavor itself was solid. Portion-wise, the value is definitely there. I also appreciate that they clearly mark their gluten-free options on the menu. read more

Great pupusas with excellent quality. I've tried Vcho's Pupusas at their West Covina location and have also had their Salvadoran tamales -- everything has been consistently good. The pupusas are flavorful and well made, and the tamales are equally satisfying. My personal favorite, though, is the plantains -- the perfect sweet treat to finish the meal. Definitely a solid spot for Salvadoran food. Their staff at the Rancho location was very friendly. read more

This is located INSIDE of Haven City, one of the better Salvi food restaurants. Now, it might take a while for you to get your food, ours took about 40 minutes, but they're making everything as you order. Everything was piping hot when we received it. Loved the platanos, especially with the beans and crema. I would SKIP the ube empanada, though. Not much ube flavor, dry, and not worth the time waited. But everything else? Def recommend! read more

Pupusas are still excellent! Prices have increased but their menu board has not been updated to reflect higher prices but no biggie. The main reason for the review update is the very mediocre tamale. I've had some great home made Salvadoran tamales and when i saw that they had it as a special (posted price $7, but charged $7.35), i had to get one. Highly disappointed and would not get it again. The masa was mushy and bland, chicken inside had zero flavor and was extremely dry and the potato was raw & crunchy. Luckily I also got the pupusas as well and as always they were delicious, some of the best I've ever had. read more

Placed an order for pickup and everything was ready right when I arrived--no wait at all, which I really appreciated. The process was smooth, and the staff had everything organized and ready to go. Food was fresh, hot, and packed well for takeout. Quality and flavor were on point. Overall, super convenient and efficient pickup experience. I'll definitely be ordering from here again. read more

4.5 they were very kind when answering the phone. Willing to accommodate my request for something special in a pupusa. Love the queso con loroco. My hunny had the revolta ones they are a little more chunky than im used to. However flavor is there. Good price for the size of the pupusa. $28 for 5 was really reasonable. Thank you. Location is clean feeling and the Haven City Market is always loud and busy. Thanks see you again soon. read more

Located inside West Covina's Haven City Market, this pupusa spot was disappointing. The environment is that of any food court, but the outdoor seating is great! The service was subpar, the cashier wasn't the friendliest, with shrugs as some of her responses without an explanation. The food? There's isn't much to say about the food. I ordered pupusas, and while they tasted like pauses, they weren't very impressive. They tasted like dolled up quesadillas. The sauce didn't even taste like the right stomatoes. Just tasted like canned tomatos. read more

Vchos - Bean and cheese and Revuelta comes with a side of salsa and curtido - Salvadoran Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

It was a Sunday afternoon and Haven City was quite busy. I wasn't that hungry however didn't want to feel left out since my family was ordering food next door. I stopped by and thought ok I can have a pupusa they're not that filling however I was wrong. They have a special with two pupusa's for $10. They're a pretty good size and quite thick, lots of filling and the cheese was oozing out. I ordered the revuelta and the chicken spinach cheese. Both were tasty however I liked the revuelta better. The pickled veggies accompanied it and were chopped up a little bit more finely than what I've had in the past. The salsa was watery as expected and could have packed a little more heat. The only thing I thought was off was that they were filming in the back with an iPhone and what looked like a script. The worker's had to fulfill orders but the lady n the camera man/director was standing the way. Perhaps they should have done this during the weekdays when it's not so busy.... read more

Overpriced and they charge 4% for credit card. Pupusas are small for the price they charge.

The best pupusas I've ever had!! The pupusas are filled perfectly, and as big as my hand. My mom and I had 2 pupusas: 1 beans and cheese, 1 one chicken, spinach, and cheese. Let me tell you, they had me dancing merengue in my seat! 10/10 Would recommend! I had to call my sister immediately to tell her about this place and even ordered seconds after I was done. ¡Las mejores pupusas que he probado! Están rellenas a la perfección y son tan grandes como mi mano. Mi mamá y yo comimos dos: una de frijoles con queso y otra de pollo, espinacas y queso. ¡Me hicieron bailar merengue en mi asiento! Cinco estrellas. ¡Las recomiendo! Tuve que llamar a mi hermana inmediatamente para contarle sobre este lugar e incluso pedí una segunda porción después de terminar. read more

I just tried VCHOS Pupuseria Moderna in the Rancho Cucamonga food court, and WOW -- I can't remember the last time I had pupusas this perfect. I ordered the cheese and pork, and they were absolutely delicious: perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and made with real care. This little spot deserves way more attention. I give them a 20 out of 10, two thumbs up, and my full recommendation. If you love authentic, well‑made pupusas, this is the place to go. Acabo de probar V Chos Pupuseria en el área de comida en Rancho Cucamonga, y ¡Dios mío! No recuerdo la última vez que comí pupusas tan perfectas. Pedí las de queso y cerdo, y estaban deliciosas: bien hechas, llenas de sabor y preparadas con cariño. Este lugar merece mucho más reconocimiento. Les doy 20 de 10, dos pulgares arriba, y mi recomendación total. Si te encantan las pupusas auténticas y bien hechas, este es el lugar ideal. read more

Tried the Montebello location and the pupusas were so good. Had the same expectations for this location but the chicken cheese and spinach pupusas had no chicken. Way too much cheese it was hard to eat them. The plantains were good but unfortunately will not be returning read more

Food was amazing. It was quite filling too my son and I got 2 pupusas each and we tried to eat a chicken pasetelito each as well but we tapped out after a few bites of the pastelito.

The ceviche was dry and they give you so little. The pupusas were good just extra greasy but that's a hit or mess with pupusas.

Great food! Must try! Pupusas are always fresh and the pan con pollo was delicious as well and is a big portion!
