Delicious food and great service! The pupusas were fresh, tasty, and generously filled. The tilapia dish was absolutely scrumptious, perfectly cooked, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. Staff was friendly and fast. Definitely worth stopping by. Will definitely be back!
Authentic!! The prices are amazing. Service was incredibly fast compared to other restaurants. We enjoyed the pork/cheese pupusas, and birria/cheese pupusas. The chicken/cheese was good, but i expected the chicken to be more mixed in, it was shredded and tasted a bit plain. Still a 10/10 regardless. 5 pupusas for $17! I wouldve had pictures but the smell was so delicious we devoured them instantly. I do suggest boxing pupusas separately as some people can have allergies or be pork restricted to avoid cross contamination. The atmosphere was great! Plenty of tvs showcasing their food, cooking channels, and funny videos. The seats looked clean and were comfortable to sit in.
Bought bean and cheese pupusas and they were genuinely the worst pupusas I’ve ever had. The curtido tasted dirty and old and the pupusas had a similar taste to it. I don’t know how you can mess up flavors in either, but to each their own. Huge difference from restaurant to homemade—unfortunately, this place (in my opinion) isn’t worth buying pupusas from.
I’m obsessed with their Sopa de res and we recently tried their Tortas! So yummy! I’ll recommend to make the atmosphere more Central American and play latin music, the vibe will be better!
Very satisfied with my purchase from Pupusas Express! 😋 First of I am Salvadorian and my expectations were definitely met. I live about 20 mins away and I will drive here each time for their pupusas. well food overall. Everything tasted freshly made. The pupusas were Arroz (Rice flour) filled to perfection. The plantains were sweet and the beans definitely tasted delicious like back home. Now the fish? YUMMM😋 So crispy and freshly cooked. They gave a nice amount of Rice under, beans, salad & 2 tortillas. On the menu it does say 2 slices of avocado that were not in my boyfriends plate but everything was so deliciously cooked that it didn’t even matter. The prices are definitely reasonable as well. Will definitely make this my go to spot from now on! I can’t wait to try more things from the
