Pupusas were ok, nothing special. However, the desayuno was delicious. Loved the tomato flavor on the huevos rancheros. I do think the plantains could’ve been cooked a bit better as it was not soft and on the dry side. Solid place 7/10. The atmosphere was nice, place was full. Nice staff, great service.

Food is amazing , loved the chicharrón pupusas and breakfast was on point , regarding the service waitress was very polite , this restaurant have a great potential , the only thing for us was that the floor was a little dirty and tables and chairs are deteriorated , but other that everything was amazing.

The food ordered was good, everything was freshly cooked. The tortillas were the highlight, reminded me of my grandmother’s tortillas. Customer service was excellent. Parking is limited.

This place is a hole in the wall in East LA. We stumbled upon it when trying to grab a late night bite at the end of a long day. Their food was delicious and very affordable. We ordered a few of their rice pupusas (with cheese, shrimp, pork belly, etc) Food tasted fresh. Dinner only cost about $7 each.

I had the caldo de res and it was delicious! Plenty of other people were ordering it too. Staff is hit ot miss, but overall fairly nice place. The pupusas are the best in East Los Angeles. I’ll definitely continue to frequent this establishment.

They forgot some items in my food, had to go back to pick up. Charged me 10 dollers more then the menu price, menu prices are not up to date, that was their excuse for them charging me more. The menu hasn’t been updated since the last time I went (8 months ago).over all good food, but bad service, injustice in price. Avocado rotten as well in my food.

Novelas playing en español on multiple big TVs set the mood. Food and service, excellente! (Novelas too) I ordered a chili relleno stuffed with pork. Everything arrived piping hot and moist and full of flavor. Rice, beans, a small salad and two corn tortillas. Nothing fancy, just hearty Mexican comfort food. I was full half way through but the combination of flavors with just a bit of heat kept me in the game to the end. Full and very happy. 🙂
