Come for the Pupusas, I usually get chicken and cheese. Jalapeño and cheese is also good and eat it with the cabbage and red and green sauce. Two Pupusas with everything above + drink will fill you up. They’re not as big a thick as they used to make them but still worth the price and delicious.

  • Stephanie Jean-Stern

I've only ever tried their pupusas, and they're amazing. I'd honestly recommend them all. You have to wait a bit because they're made fresh, but they're worth the wait. The curtido (slaw) is not too acidic and has the perfect amount of oregano. I'll have to try some of their other items soon.

  • Emilio Pena

I don't even know how's the food, I ordered 7 pupusas (because for delivery is $25 or up) around 4:43pm and I've called twice to ask if the delivery guy got lost or something. Now is 6:38pm and still haven't got my food... And this place is not more than 12 blocks from where I live. Smh! More

  • Shyeza Suarez

Fresh, tasty and delicious. Definitely have some time to spare because they take a little time to make. But you have to think to yourself, do you want quality or quantity? Would you rather fresh or reheated/ frozen food? They are fresh! From scratch. Authentic, viva Salvador! ❤️ More

  • J.M.R Guy

I was disappointed when I saw bones in my tamales. The tamales was soggy. It felt like it was uncooked because the potatoes was not soft inside it. My neice gave the same rating for this restaurant. I wouldn’t buy here. I would hate to give it a one star. More

  • Carmen Mojica

This was a terrible experience. I am allegric to cheese and they failed to tell me that everything comes with cheese regardless if it doesn't say so on the menu. After I voiced my concerns, the waitress ignored us the rest of our time their

  • Melisa Fuentes

We’ve been going to this place for years. This past weekend my mother placed an order on the phone 1 hour ahead for 2 chicken soups. When she got there the soup was still not ready. She waited about 15 more minutes and when the soup finally

  • Leslie Flores

While I usually love coming to this place , I came in here today and had to wait 1 hour for my food to ready when the lady in the front told me it would only take 20 minutes ! I didn’t mind waiting it but then she totally got my order wrong

  • Jazzy

Went to this place for the very first time about 6 years ago, they changed their location but the business remained the same. If you’re here for pupusas, definitely go for chicharrón con queso. Caldo de res is a must to go with them. Also,

  • Dani Ani

My go to pupusas spot in the bronx, honestly the best! My Fav is Revueltas and Frijoles and cheese. The only thing that would make it 10x better if they would accept cards, other than that perfect. I’ve been a customer since i was 13 years

  • Chris Perry

As I write this, I ordered my food an hour ago. I was told it would be ready in 25 minutes. Not only is my food not ready, but I see customers who came in after me be seated and be served the same thing I ordered an hour ago. Through this

  • Christina Lopez

I just tried this place out for the first time. I ordered the chicken and cheese pupusas and the pork and cheese pupusas. They make the pupusas fresh to order (we waited maybe 15 minutes) and it’s worth it!!! They were fresh, a good size,

  • Melany Argueta

Worst pupusas ever. First of all we waited an hour for our food. Doesn’t take that long, the restaurant was not busy. The pupusas were more tortilla and no meat for $3.00 and I got 11 of them. The tamale de elite was good and the horchata

  • Cesar LaVerde

The place is clean, the decor simple and plain. Only one server, overworked. Pupusas were delicious. Made to order which brings me to my only serious complaint. Horrendously long waiting time. Unbelievable, the server informed me that it

  • Kimberly Oliva

Terrible service over all. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anybody unless you love having your time wasted. It takes over 30-40 minutes to get your order taken, then another hour and thirty minutes minimum for your food to come to the

  • Marisol Boop

Pupusas are tasty but this restaurant staffs prefer to served first their own people and leaving other customers waiting long time for their order. Feeling like it’s only exclusive for Salvador people. Not to mention that they also take

  • Shantal Taveras

I am definitely not one to write a post from a restaurant, but I am today! I ordered a pupusa with cheese, beans, and chicharron, and I also added the cabbage and green sauce. It was so so good, and I had to slow down to enjoy it more!

  • Alyssa Soler

While the claims about time are true (2 pupusas took 20 mins), don't let that take away from the chance to try their pupusas. I definitely recommend takeout, rather than dining in. Better yet, try to call ahead and order pick up. Their

  • Denii G

Did take out, this was one of the best pupusas I've had. Way bigger than ones made at other locations and it's small exterior you wouldn't even know its there. Definitely worth the trip. Tried loroco with cheese, jalepeno with cheese,

  • Isa j

The pupusas were so good. And they're big. I got 3. I felt full by the third one. I ordered chicharon , frijoles and one with queso loroco. The curtido was fresh. The sauces made them taste even better . Definitely going to go back

  • Cely VB

I love the pupusas here! They are the best!!! I purchased them and take them home, waiting time was ok...hey it takes time to make those delicious pupusas! I will strongly recommend it! I'm picky with food, but these are good!

  • brandon wallace

The pupusas here are never fail to always be delicious. If you want something tasty to eat you can count on these pupusas. The restaurant is very popular so you may have to wait a bit at peak times. Good cooking takes time.

  • Luis Santiago

We called more than an hour ago, and we were driving from deep in the rockaways, we come in and find the place to be backed up with no food made. Terrible service, if you can't handle heat don't stay open. More

  • Eddie S.

This is the first time we’ve had pupusas, so we really can’t compare them to any others. But the food we ordered was hot and delicious. You may have to wait a little, but they seem to be made to order. More

  • Geovanna Serrano

In my opinion, the best pupusas I’ve had. They make them on the spot, so it’s always fresh. The dough is perfectly made with the right amount of filling. I wish they gave more curtido (coleslaw).

  • Veronica Jarquin

They take so long to prepare the food, I was there waiting for an hour! They were taking their sweet time in the kitchen and they kept hiding, at the end, I ended up leaving. Never coming back!!

  • Beverly Torres

This has been one of the most authentic pupuserias that I have tried here in NYC (not including Long Island). The pupusas were so good not too much maza and the filling was very authentic,

  • laurel Martinez

Staff is rude they act like if they are the one paying for you food !! Pupusas are blend no taste barely had chorizo in it or cheese. Waited for 35 minutes for 2 Pupusas. …

  • felix romero

So disappointing on the service here. It use to be great now you have to wait an hour and a half just for take out. This is unacceptable. Such a shame. More

  • Johanny

Amazing pupusas. Took some time to arrive but that’s because they serve them hot and fresh. They were a nice size and very flavorful. Highly recommended

  • Ms. Perez

They have really good pupusas. I had the chicharrón con queso and it was so good. This is going to be my new spot when I have the cravings for pupusas.

  • Teresa Pena

Basic pupusas. They're missing that Salvadoran flavor. Server didn't even know what atol shuco was. Doubt they're Salvadoran. More

  • Moonlight Designz

I called was told to give them 30 minutes it’s been an hour already and no food yet they need more workers this is insane More
