Every chance I get, I eat pupusas from this restaurant. In fact, I haven't tried anything else! They are so simple and delicious... an authentic! Perfect every time. We almost always order take away, and get extra to freeze at home, so I'm not commenting on the restaurant/atmosphere, just the gorgeous golden brown cheesy beany parcels of gastro goodness. Mmmm,...

My girlfriend and I try to come eat here a couple times a year. We live an hour from Vancouver but still make the drive to come and enjoy some papusas. The food has always been good and the atmosphere is authentic. I am actually writing this while waiting for my food.

Think Twice. Read on if you dare. My friends and I were walking down Commercial Drive when we spotted this place and decided to check it out. I was particularly enthused as I saw that they had pupusas. We waited in line for approximately half an hour and were eventually seated. The waitress, admittedly, was very nice. We tried to... More

Typical Salvadorean food doesn't get much better than this. Try the pupusas, the tostadas or the huraches. They are made fresh with great products. You can tell the food is prepared with much more caring than most places. The consistency is incredible and the value is second to none. I've been going here for years. And not much has changed...

Great brunch food. Limited for veggie/vegan options. Need to go back to try the pupusas.
