| - The name of the restaurant says it all. Their signature item (pupusa) is the best this place has to offer. Their standard pupusa comes with your choice of meat, beans, cheese, and herbs. However, you can also custom fill your pupusa and change it up a bit. For example, my wife orders hers with no beans. If you don't try their pupusas, you will be thoroughly disappointed because the rest of the food here is not good.
For our late breakfast, I had the chorizo and eggs. The portion size was small, and the amount of chorizo in this dish was almost non-existent. Therefore, it was like eating scrambled eggs with chorizo flavored grease. The dish also came with a side of beans which were runny- but tasted OK. I used the plain pupusa as a chip and dipped them into my beans. My wife ordered the carne asada taco and was disappointed. The meat tasted funny, and the taco itself was not garnished with onions/cilantro, or salsa. My three year old son had their plain cheese quesadilla and seemed to really like it.
I don't think my wife and I will come back here anytime soon. As we were waiting for our food, we noticed the cooks in the back using their bare hands to touch all the food, dirty containers, and uncooked dough. Never once did we notice them wash their hands in the process. If you are going to have an open kitchen for everyone to see, you better run a clean operation.
My wife is convinced the health department will shut this place down sooner or later. But in the meantime, give me two of them pupusas to go!
