I had a great dinner! The pupusas were generously thick and very well done. The salad was well seasoned fresh and crunchy. The sauces red and green made right! Beautiful place for eating good food!

I love it here, I've been coming here for a couple years now and it's just always good. sweet lady at the front is always happy, ive always ordered in Spanish but I'm sure she could happily take an order in English too. I recommend the pupusas revueltas with cheese and beans with either fajita or chicken. If you're in a huge rush I wouldn't recommend cause they are made fresh and it does take time depending on how many pupusas you order. You could probably just call your order in if that's the case. But you definitely won't be disappointed!!!

Went for the first time today and the fajita, bean and cheese pupusas were delicious! The lady of the house was really nice. I ordered my sister some to go and she loved them as well. Decent size for a great price. We will be back!

First time coming here and was not disappointed. I was craving for pupusas we always request for extra toasty and they were vary tasty, full of meat of chicharron con queso, not masosa. El curtido was really good customer service was great, Esmeralda took care of us and checked on us to make sure everything was good. I think I found the spot even if I have to drive city to city.
