Great pupusa place - three for $10ish which is quite a lot of food for not that much! Fried plantains are sweet and come with tasty refried beans and cream. Really sweet service but sitting outside you order on a QR code

Don’t get confused with their nice TikTok advertising… We’ll never come back to this place!! I’ll hire the TikTok people who does their advertising, We came here because of that. The experience was totally different, the soup was horrible, my Mojo de Ajo Shrimp didn’t have no garlic flavor it all, my the nachos were old.
