SALVADOR PUPUSAS AND TAMALES. I like the fish and the pan con pollo. Sundays after church is always a good day for a visit here. Service is friendly and effective. I recommend you come try it out. Enjoy whatever you try I am sure you will like. Thank you papá turro staff.

My only complaint is the curtido could use just a little more vinegar. I had the bite encebollado, and took home some pupusas revueltos for my wife. The food is delicious! You can taste the pride and love in the cooking.

They have great PUPUSAS, I would recommend the pupusas over any others I have eaten in Albuquerque restaurants. The Curtido (like a slaw) is excellent. Their food is authentic. A MUST EAT AT PLACE. This is a family run business and is not a chain store!!!! GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!! FOOD IS FRESH!!!!!

Super friendly family-ran restaurant. Authentic and traditional Salvadorian meals. A nice family atmosphere. Could be fun for the kiddies to try some foods from another culture there! The host was very patient and explained the meal items. I tried the pupusas and they are a Salvadorian staple. Super tasty and a few pupusas will fill you up! I also tried the Platillo Feliz (Happy Plate) and all of the items are a safe bet! Highly recommended!

My wife spotted this one day when we were eating at Dave's Valley Grill next door. It took a while as we kept forgetting about it. How I wish we had eaten here sooner! The food is fantastic, especially the Papusa! I had the bean and cheese stuffed papusa. It's flavorful without the heavy feeling of frijoles and the cheese is creamy. Be sure to add the cabbage and tomato to it. I recommend the Happy Plate as you can sample several items along with the Papusa such as plantains, a vegetable empanada, yucca root and a desert type food that I forget the name of. All of it is incredible. The staff is warm, friendly and patient in explaining the menu. All in all a wonderful experience. We'll be back, often!
