  Though not fancy, this small place is cheerful. The pupusas are good and come in several varieties. The first time I went here was the day before they restock, and there were several items not available. The second visit was fine. I do wish they carried diet soda, but all in all a good place

  I was really hoping this could be a new spot since it's very close to home and I love papusas, but the overall experience I had when coming doesn't make me too keen on making this a regular spot.
  
  Don't get me wrong, the papusas are amazing, 10/10 out of this world! The service however and other selections fall in comparison. It was so hard to order, the server couldn't grasp what we were trying to order no matter what we did; speaking in Spanish, pointing at the menu, describing the food, nothing worked. He ended up messing up both orders, but we looked past it since we really just wanted to see the papusas.
  
  Everything except the papusas is not worth eating here in my opinion, I had a tamale and tacos as well and both were pretty disappointing. I think the only way I'd come back is to get papusas to go personally, but if you love papusas you NEED to try these at all costs; just only order those!

  I love the food here but I am vegetarian and when I order take out, they consistently get my order wrong and give me meat.  It would be understandable if it was occasionally but it's all the time!  Nothing is more disappointing than looking forward to enjoying a delicious bean tamale to find out they gave you chicken tamales.
  The food is absolutely delicious but they totally need to be more mindful re getting orders correct!  If you have serious food allergies proceed with caution.

  My favorite pupusas in the area! I've only been here once, but yum!
  
  I've been living here for almost three years and finally tried this place bc I was craving a small meal. I decided to get a pork pupusa, a barbacoa taco, and some chicharrón bc who doesn't love fried pork? There weren't a lot of patrons in the restaurant when we dined in, but the wait was rather long for what we ordered. I'd say we waited about 20 mins for our food to arrive. Luckily, we had micheladas to hold us over while we waited.
  
  The pork pupusa was filled with a good portion of meat and cheese. The barbacoa taco was okay, not too memorable, and the chicharrón wasn't chicharrón at all. They were actually just masitas me puerco (fried pork chunks) as there was no attached skin or fat in sight. Don't order these if you love actual chicharrón bc you'll be disappointed.
  
  The pupusas are the stand out here. Come for these! They also have weekday specials on purchases of multiple pupusas.

  Holy hell, their food is exceptional! If it weren't for these reviews I'd have never stopped by the unassuming restaurant on Route One. I've been twice now and my mind was blown each time.
  
  I have disliked Cole Slaw my whole life but theirs is not mayo based; it's mixed with El Salvadoran oils & spices, it's light, the veggies are so fresh they crunch unlike regular slaw that erodes in your mouth.
  
  Pupusas. I had no idea what I was ordering the 1st time and now it's a favorite. I don't understand how their culinarily engineered and can only liken them to Burrito contents magically stuffed into an EL Salvadoran pancake. It's far less messy than a burrito.
  
  The shrimp avocado soft taco is served with fresh lime and is the best item I've tried. In fact,  it's the best taco like food I've ever had.
  
  I'll never be able to take Flautas serious at other restaurants. These are huge, cooked to perfection (not oily) and were topped with fresh veggies & cheese.
  
  Look past the sad exterior aesthetic, go inside and enjoy this very affordable, culinary delight.
