I tried this place after driving past it for 6 years. For some reason I was craving pupusas and decided to stop by and check it out. I also ordered the steak and it was soooo flavorful, and accompanied with hand-made tortillas that were so thick. Everything we ordered was packed with flavor! I love supporting small businesses so I will definitely be coming back soon.

Even though I use this road frequently, I had never seen this place. I ordered El Desayuno Especial with a side of Salsa Ranchera (which was $3.99, a little high IMO). My wife had a frijol y queso pupusa. I was satisfied with my meal the plantain was right in point, although my eggs were cooked a little more than I had ordered (over medium). My wife told me that she liked her food as well. We went in first thing in the morning. The bathroom looked and smelled clean. And yes, it is a place that I plan to return to try the other dishes.

I really like this restaurant. The food is always good and you get a little God with your meal. I like their Chilaquiles with meat and the Caldo de Res.

The food and atmosphere were perfect. I hope this business continues to succeed, though the best time to go is after 7pm when it's quiet and you have the restaurant to yourself. The pupusas and gorditas were well-made and the fried plantains were soft and sweet!

This is one of my favorite places in Houston for pupusas. I’m Salvadorian and these pupusas are some of the best I ever had especially when I ask for them to go. They package it not just with the wrapper but aluminum foil and I think that’s what keeps it cheesy/hot (for reference- they don’t do that everywhere and the cheese is already hard/cold when you take it home… not from here though!). The frijol y queso (bean and cheese) is my usual go-to. The chicken one is great as well.
Today I went with my friend. She wanted tacos and got the stripped fajita ones with avocado and it was so delicious. I saw Tinga on the menu and really wanted some but also wanted pupusas. I asked if they could make a Tinga pupusa and they accommodated. It was so delicious!! This is one of the many perks of it being a Salvadorian-Mexican restaurant. The menu is extensive.
To drink we got some horchatas and an ensalada de fruta “fruit salad” (but it’s a drink. My favorite). My friends LOVED it. Perfect and refreshing for a hot day.
The food and service is always so amazing here.
