I got the chicharrones y queso (pork and cheese) it took 30 mins to make which they tell you and it says on the menu as well. Really good and will return to try the rest of the pupusas

The food was really delicious. A colleague and I headed over here for lunch and we ordered a few things on pretty sizable menu. We had the vegan pupusas loaded with cabbage or other yumminess on top for $8.99 (pretty pricy for just one but the size was fairly worth it) along with loaded yucca fries and a side of plantains. Everything was so yummy. The wait was pretty long but it's no wonder because everything was so fresh, plus, they had a steady flow of customers, always a sign of good food.The space is pretty small (probably due to Covid restrictions so the counter was moved up closer to the door to minimize people in the restaurant. There were a few tables and chairs outside for folks to sit and eat or wait for for their orders.

Literally the best pupusa filling I've ever had. Second best curtido ever. Happily serve myself extra curtido and out pops a dead fly. The best food in the world can be ruined by poor cleanliness practices.

I would never return to this location! I ordered a pan con pollo and just as I was about to eat it, I saw a sizable bug in the meat. I brought it to their attention and they offered to make me another one, but I was too repulsed at that point. What made it worse was their clear lack of customer service skills. They seemed surprised that I wanted my money back and didn't even both apologizing for the incident. Poor experience all around. Save yourself the hassle and eat somewhere else.

The pupusas were delicious! There is currently no indoor seating but they have covered tables right outside. The hostess is friendly and makes you feel like you're visiting your favorite Tia. I ordered la Mexicana and it was delicious. Off of the menu item, the pupusa balls. Also delicious and recommended.

So good!! Got 2 of the pizza sized pupusas.

One of the best Pupusa/Salvadorian food in LA! Highly recommend!

His place was very I'm disappointing being Salvadorian. The yucca fries and their new balls that are stuffed like pupusas will not cooked through all the way. The female server was so rude we couldn't even finish the sentence before she was shutting us up. I understand that nowadays everything is pricing but it's just really disappointed in one food is pricey and it's kind of a waste of money.

Overall the food was delicious. Definitely will be going back for more pupusa bombs! Curtido and salsa were flavorful too!! Only thing was I wanted to order the pupusa bombs over the phone but the guy that answered said we couldn't because it was a "secret menu item" so I just ordered the pupusas by phone. When we got there and I ordered the pupusa bomb, the lady asked why I didn't order by phone because now I will have to wait like an hour for the pupusa bomb. I told her they told me on the phone I couldn't and she rolled her eyes and said idk why they told u that said sorry and said next time order with her.

If you don’t find parking right on the street from the business there’s a parking lot across the street that lets you park for $5, super convenient.You’re not able to eat inside however they do offer a few tables out on the sidewalk for you to “dine in”. Pupusas and drink were good. The waitress was very friendly and we had a great time.
