The quality of the food tastes yummy and flavorful! The pan con pollo was my favorite and the pupusas tasted good just needed a little more filling. The wait time can take minute but only when theyre super packed
Im super picky when it comes to Pupusas and these didn't disappoint. I understand that some people are used to the bigger pupusas, but for me that's indicator of cheap product and more dough. The young gentleman at the front was very welcoming and made us feel at home. Everything tastes fresh and I can't wait to come back and try more of their foods.
I ordered 4 pupusas and 2 drinks. I got 2 revueltas and 1 revuelta with rice and one with queso y loroco. The drinks were marañon y arrayan. The pupusas are not as big for the price but the quality of the food is great. The sauce is okay and the curtido is good. The service was great the young man that helped out was friendly and knew his culture's food. The ambiance well I didn't get to eat inside the restaurant since it was to go.
Fast, friendly, yummy, and affordable. Some seating inside but I ordered two pupusas to go, they were good and not too thick with the masa.
Best Chicharron Pupusas EVER!!! They always taste amazing. My favorite Pupusa spot in LA area! They offer dine in service but their to go is always fast and efficient. Very nice family owned business, very clean location.
The pupusas here were on point very thin layer of tortilla (masa) packed with cheesy cheese , the mixed pupusas had the right mix of the pork beans and cheese
Best Pupusas in LA! Been going here for 2 decades! Go-to spot without a doubt I usually get Huevos con chorizo and 2 pupusas de revuelta, let me tell you, HITS THE SPOT EVERY TIME!
Very tasty pupusas! The cortido and sauce is fire! Love going to this place! They have expanded before it was grab and go now you can sit and enjoy it there.
