Really good popusas !! But the waiting for 2 irdes o 4 popusas was horrible almost one hour in half!! The service was not good at all the girl who took my order looks like she was mad, she never welcomed us or thanked us! all I heard was people chatting in the back kitchen, while they have some other folks waiting in the lobby to pick up and order ther food, plus the lobby was so dirty the tables had alot of dirty dishes. Not going back.!!! NOPE!!!
This place is total trash , walked in and the employees were just sitting there FaceTiming and stuffing their mouths talking in a vulgar manner didn’t even acknowledge us I thought they were customers then I noticed their uniform with the logo , then the lady goes are you going to order at this point I wanted to just say no I’m here just to stare at the menu and leave ! So we waited till she felt like getting up and taking our order Filthy place I wouldn’t eat here I just left since they have no customer service experience , didn’t have a good feeling to stick around and try it ! Since they are total trash In service and cleanliness ! I would recommend going for real good customer service and great authentic Salvadorian go to Pupusas Acapulco !!
I had pupusas for the first time. The good was great. The staff was friendly.
