Great atmosphere on Sunday mornings. Service was polite and food was freshly made. Don't be fooled for the outdoor presentation of the building.

Amazing food and cool decor. Very friendly. Probably the best Mexican food I've had in Cali.

I'd honestly say we are in really tough times when a restaurant is charging $5 a pupusa. As delicious as these pupusas are, it's crazy to me that they are charging that much. On top of that, on the menu it's $10 for 2 pupusas. So I don't think it's an option to just order one. Someone correct me if I am wrong. All that being said, they're freaking delicious. I just wish they wouldn't charge so much. I really am going to have to find a spot where they charge less. But I'm probably not because it's freaking delicious. We've tried everything they offer. Chicharron, solo queso, loroco, etc. When you find a good pupusa spot, it's hard to leave that spot and try others. I'm definitely coming here often, they're worth the price.
