This place has less than 4 stars on yelp and google unfortunately. This pupeseria is actually really good! I have been coming here for years. My go to is pupusas revueltas and pasteles de pollo, mmm! Yes what people say about waiting a long time for your food is right. There must a reason it takes so long right ? But it's good. I've learned that ordering takeout is the best option for me because I am someone who has high expectations in customer service and the duration of my food, especially when I'm hungry. Great food, just slow service.

I haven't been here in years and forgot how much I love their pupusas. I had the vegetarian one and it was scrumptious. I loved the spinach & mushroom in it. And the pickled cabbage topping is excellent. All for only $4.60'. Our server was so very sweet. I'll be back for sure.

I love coming to this spot. When we walked in we were greeted and were told to sit wherever so we chose a booth. It was empty upon arrival which was surprising considering it was 12pm , the restaurant filled quickly. The server took our drink order and dropped those off and when took our order he let us know the wait would be 15-20 minutes. My bestfriend is salvadorian and makes the best ones and when I'm craving pupusas I come here since they're similar to hers. The Curtido which is a blend of shredded cabbage, carrot with some sort of vinegar balances the pupusas with a fresh bite! I got 4 pupusas 1 jalapeno cheese, 1beans, cheese, chicharon, 2 Chicharron and cheese. They were fresh and hot upon arrival. They gave us a bowl of curtido to share between both of us. Which was definetly not enough. We had to hunt to down the server to get 2 more bowls. He was friendly but didn't touch the table more than twice, which is understandable considering he was doing the job of 3 and the restaurant was busy. Kudos to them! The restaurant itself is pretty big, don't expect something too fancy. There are a ton of plants which are nice and bring the place together.

Best Pupusas in Sonoma County, hands down. Flavor is always on point. If you have never been and you are a fan of pupusas, I recommend you check this place out. Another thing worth mentioning is that their sweet corn tamales are also a must try if you swing by. The only reason I did not give them a five-star review is because I also tried their enchiladas, and they were ok at best, but I definitely won't be ordering them again

The Pupusas were fire! I would've liked a little more crunch on the outside but nonetheless my only critique. My girl had the fish filet with rice & beans which she said was really good. Definitely would recommend especially the chicharrón con queso fire af. The pastelles con pollo y papa was the game changer. Get loaded and come here you won't be disappointed also don't expect that fancy shit its authentic you finna be waiting a min but its worth it

The food here is amazing. I love the pupusa and the enchiladas are different than the Mexican type. They are absolutely delicious. I think this is one of the best places I've had Pupusas in. The average type of diner, but it's comfortable nothing special but good. The staff is very friendly and helpful

One of the best pupuserias I have been to in California, the staff was amazing, excited that my wife and I came in to try their food. The restaurant was bustling with happy customers and the speakers were playing lively music. It does take about 15-25 minutes for your food to be made but that is because the pupusas are made fresh to order. The Chicarron and queso pupusa was filled completely and delicious with the cabbage and salsa. Surprisingly my favorite pupusa had spinach and pumpkin in it, highly recommend if you enjoy exploring new flavors. The Chile Relleno was savory with ground pork and vegetables inside and topped with a red sauce and served with tortillas. The Salvadorean horchata was refreshing, made with cashews, arrayan fruit and tamarind.
