Riquisimas pupusas. Without compare queso con Loroco our all-time favorite ordered yuca con chicharron but got camaron instead hence the four stars (through grub hub) Will def order again.

Very tasty papusas. I had never had a papusa before, so I don’t have much to compare too, but it was delicious. Also came out piping hot and well wrapped to go. I have never been served food so hot and fresh in my life! Lol. But then I realized the reason being that a cold papusa is not nearly as appealing. Excellent fried plantains too
