Got a couple of my favorite. Papusas, queso con loroco. They were big and full of cheese. Worth the price. ( thought it was a little high, but worth it for all the cheese) The little hot sauce is pretty hot, so I just dabbed it a little here and there.

If you are ever in Hawthorne, this is a must. Everything was freshly made, delicious and hot. Everyone is so grateful to surve you. And they have PAN to eat with cafe.

Being Salvadorian I love eating pupusas. I've tried other places and only had one that I liked going to, but after finding this spot I highly recommend it! They use quality ingredients and way larger than I expected! Probably going to be my new Go-to spot! Space is a bit small inside so I'm sure evenings and weekends are packed but other than that it's a great place!

This has been my go to restaurant whenever I need an authentic Guatemalan Pick me up. I’ve been going here for over 10 years, the food and flavor have not disappointed at all. I always get their tortilla with chorizo and beans but my dad has ordered the garnachas and other family members have ordered chow mein and caldos and everyone had been satisfied each and every time! So far I can say I will always recommend this place to anyone and everyone is SO DELICIOUS and worth it! Service can be a hit or miss and ambiance, well they always have music lol that’s a plus.
