Love coming here for some fresh delicious pupusas. They are made as you order so it does take a while. I order over the phone and pick up in 20 mins. I usually get cheese and revueltas with an order of yucca frita con chicharron.
Small place but good food with reasonable prices. Este es un pequeño lugar en el que estuve con la familia el fin de semana y aunque no está muy grande ni espectacular la comida me pareció muy buena y precios más razonables que otros lugares. Definitivamente regresaría nuevamente.
The pupusas are ok, they are pricey. I love their empanadas de frijol. They do take a while to make your order. The place is very small but decent.
My family and I tried the pupusas from here, they were delicious! We had the revueltas of course and the bean and cheese, all were very yummy. The only downside was the wait, this is a mom and pop place and they do take a while to give you your order.
Great food! I have not been let down once. No matter the time of year/season they deliver quality even in the most basic dish such as their plátanos, they're always soft and sweet.
