I came because it was recommended by a friend but Im highly dissatisfied. The menu looks good but they run out of every ingredient in the drinks menu. No lemon, no beers. We understood & tried to move on, but it was just sad to see the waitress apologizing all the time because of that. They changed my order 4 times bc of lack of ingredients. I'm very patient & understanding with the staff, they were great & it's not their fault to face administration issues. I've been here over an hour & I just got my drink which unbelievably it was not even the spirit I ordered, the it's been over an hour & the food is not on the table yet. Honestly it was so disappointing & a waste of my friends time & mine. I feel bad for the staff that have to put up with this terrible management. I'm never coming back. Don't waste your time, there's a Mexican place less than 100 meters away in the same street & I'm pretty sure they would have been be able to serve you better. I'm not a person who request discount neither paying for my order just because the service was bad, but I should have done that this time. DONT COME UNLESS THE RECENT COMMENTS ARE TRULY POSITIVE

Amazing outdoor terrasse weather & atmosphere. You cannot skip the yuca frita (fries like but gluten free fried vegetable), the chicharron (pulled pork fried chewy on the out but tender on the inside). Great size pupusas, go for the revueltas & the con todo you won't regret & the sweet orchata drink (rice floor base with cinnamon) was to delectfully sweet. Great July'w6 experience.

I used to love this place, but it's gone downhill.

Service was complete trash the last two times I went, so not just a one off, & both times the restaurant was near empty, so no excuse.

About 4 wait staff on, all of them chatting together, eating food with their hands, & on their phones. The bar top was full of dirty dishes, empty water bottles & sangria pitchers. Literally not doing their jobs. Had to go ask them for everything (drinks, sauces etc.) as they wouldn't come to the table. They also confused the orders & forgot to bring drinks that then appeared on the bill. Complete joke & a far cry from what it once was.

I used to work in the service industry & this is an embarrassment. I gave them two chances, & it was the same terrible service both times.

The food is decent, but I'm going to frequent the other papusa places in the neighborhood.

Really hope the management turns things around.

This is a cute & cozy little place that I enjoyed for my birthday dinner with a friend. It was very crowded when we arrived & was a tight squeeze for people to get around. I love the pupusa with pork & cheese & the yuca fries. They have really great drinks! I did not like where our table was next to the kitchen & in front of the bar...lots of traffic & felt in the middle of everything. The women's bathroom is falling apart & really needs a major revamp. Bar area is really impressive with the neon lights & set up. Lastly on the website it said that there is a dj on Saturday nights but there wasn't so this was disappointing & one of the reasons I chose to go to this spot. All in all not a bad place if you want to try pupusas.

Excellent pupusas, guacamole & chicken & shrimp with rice; delicious drinks. We've been regulars for ten years & brought many friends to enjoy this gem. The loss of one star was due to a musician on the terrasse who played in front of us, drowning out any ability to hold a conversation, then asked us for money. If I had known this would be the situation, we would have waited until an evening without live (& very close-up) entertainment.
