I have to start with the good things: Food is delicious! The price is very reasonable. Pupusas are about $2 a piece. Buffet is $8.50/ person. The lady that attended us was very nice. Bad things: Restroom is not taken care of. Didn't have hand soap and the toilet was clogged up. When I told the lady working there, she said that the soap dispenser broke and they haven't fixed it. The actual dining room is super small. You will end up bumping someone for sure. The pupusas were super good. But weirdly, they also had fried rice and eggrolls. What?! So it's Salvadorian and Chinese? Lol Moving on- I also noticed that in the dining area, there was a TV box and a big ladder. Very dangerous. At the end, I would come back to this place but only to go. I would not eat in.
Called in a lunch to go order. Customer service was great! The food on the other hand was not. The salsas were not refrigerated and when i opened the green one (spicy) it had mold on it. There was a hair in the curtido (pickled cabbage) and the pupusas seemed like they were just reheated. I will not be going back.
Great price for delicious food. I paid $17 for 2 people.The caldo de pollo on the line was really good. The pupusas were fresh and all you can eat. The agua frescas were good too. One of those hole in the wall type of places that turn out to be hidden gems.
