This little whole in the wall is a gem! Grew up in Inglewood and it was my first time here. One of the best pupusas I’ve ever had! The place is hidden and pretty small but well worth it!

A colleague from El Salvador recommended this place. & this are the best papusas I ever had. Made fresh, it takes like 15 minutes. But its totally worth it They even have papusas with spinach. & of course the traditional flavors. You can order over the phone, & save time at pick up. Very clean, friendly, polite service.

Very small place but absolutely delicious food. There's only two tables. We usually get the food to go but everything is just fresh and delicious

Food is great! Just order in advance, most items on menu are made to order and do take a while. Very tiny place but worth a visit. Kinda stingy on giving hot sauce but they are nice enough to throw in some extras.
