“They have all kinds of fillings including loroco (a flavorful flower) and can also make rice flour pupusas which are crispier on the edges.”
“The bean and cheese pupusa was DELICIOUS.”
“My rice and beans were fantastic, and the steak was nicely seasoned, so that brings this joint up to 4.”

Hole in the wall place on broadway that serves Salvadorean food, eg. Pupusas!
I was craving pupusas and happened on this place. Walked in and it has reggaeton to merengue, and other latin top 40s playing. A few tables inside and bar seating as well.
Speaking spanish might help some at this spot, but Im sure they'd accommodate you just as well seeing as their menus are bilingual. The lady working the order station wasn't super friendly but def just did her job. No complaints and didn't have to stand around waiting to order.
Okay, so for the food–I only ordered the pupusas (1 cheese and beans, one beans and pork rinds) and tamarind juice. The tamarind juice was sizable but a bit sweet (I don't tend to like sweet things though.) The bean and cheese pupusa was DELICIOUS. The pork rind one was decent. I love that they packed them with a side of the awesome red sauce and their cole slaw. Also, at a 1.50$ a pupusa, I can't beat that deal!
Had to wait a good 10 mins for my order to come out but the music kept me distracted…I'll probably order ahead and pick up my order next time. Also, looked around to the tables and the orders looked GOOD and really hearty. I'll have to come back and try some of their bigger dishes next time.
Check them out!
The food was good and the price was fantastic. But the service was SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. So slow I knocked two stars off, which should tell you something. The food itself was solid and tasty.
PUPUSA! I am so happy this place is so close. They have delicious rice flour pupusas which I don't see everywhere, and really tasty spinach and cheese, chicharron, and chicken pupusas. The big jar of pickled vegetables on the table sealed the deal (although it does strike me as problematic depending on how clean the table before you was…). Pupusas are no longer my conclusion to a drunken night out, but I am just happy they exist and are accessible on most days.
Yum! Great pupusas with all the usual trimmings of pickles and salsa. Nice and affordable too. They have all kinds of fillings including loroco (a flavorful flower) and can also make rice flour pupusas which are crispier on the edges. Beer is cheap and the ranchero / reggaeton blasts pretty loud. Try the plato tipico Salvadoreno to add some diversity in your meal (including some tasty eggs.)
The waitress we had was nice and tickled at our halfways decent attempts to speak Spanish (if I do say so myself.) This place is steps from my girlfriend's work at the NY Presbyterian so why fight it? I see myself here at least once a month.
