I was excited when I saw Pupusas in Cleburne, very few places have them. These were absolutely amazing. I had the chicken and cheese, the just cheese and the jalapeño, spinach and cheese. They were all very flavorful and full of the fillings. I will DEFINITELY be back! The lady who helped me was very nice and they have a nice shaded area to wait for your food and a picnic table to eat at if you’re just stopping for a quick bite. Great place!

I have been searching for this exact kind of place close to home for years, and I finally found it! It’s a hole in the wall with amazing, authentic food – particularly birria tacos midweek. I tried a pupusa for the first time, and now I don’t know if I’m more addicted to quesabirria or pupusas. Well, I can get both here and eat like a queen for less than $15. Day made!

There was so much oil in my burrito I can’t even eat it. Meat tasted like dog food. I don’t know who is cooking today but I was so nasty I’ll never order again

My first visit and I’m extremely impressed. A lot of places claim they have the best food, which I know better to believe that. I’ve been fooled one too many times. But when you go to a place that serves barbacoa and it doesn’t come with tons of grease, you know the cooks know what they’re doing. Besides, the food is simply delicious

It truly doesn’t get more authentic than this little shop! It’s a family run business and they made me feel like I was back at my tia’s house.

I only gave 4 stars because the place is pretty small. They were still accommodating to my family of 5. Amazing food ! Kid friendly.
