Pupusería Cuzcatlán

I found this place by accident, best accident ever. First time eating Salvadorian food. They did not disappoint. Clean place, food made to order, fresh and friendly staff. Please support small businesses like this one. Sorry my pics are after we devoured our food. But it was soooo good!

Been coming here for 3 1/2 years now and everything has always been so delicious and so organized but unfortunately as of a few months ago the service has not been great the food has made a drastic change and the service has really gone down.today we came and have been waiting an hour and a half and then when the food came it wasn’t the right order.and it empty today I know people make mistakes but sometimes the food comes out wrong or they seem in a bad mood sometimes the food comes out cold. I love this place and still continue to come here since my partner loves it but sometimes it’s disappointing we come here every other week I really hope it starts getting better definitely miss the little old lady behind the griddle

Fantastic flavor. Really authentic salvadorans food. The place is not - upscale - it’s in a blue collar area of Pacoima but the owners and employees make up by delivering the best tastes in salvadoran food

Bomb. Authentic Salvadoran food that leaves you wanting to come back again and again. You can tell this food is made with love. Pupusas are great, and the Desayunos are satisfying and delicious. You can tell this is a Hard working family owned business that cares about quality and taste.

Forget the greasy pupusas, the TAMALES are melt in your mouth heaven! Simple but soooo moist! Lightly oiled and flavored just right. And I’m one who’d prefer loads of flavor or eccentric stuffing to make up for the typically dry or meh tamale meal, but these are the very opposite. Just as simple foods should be, few ingredients but done RIGHT they’re heavenly. My storage space is nearby and this is my go-to for a snack or meal of chicken tamales. Love good finds :) Ps, the ambiance is endearingly classic but not what most gringos would go for. Staff is so friendly and sometimes speak just enough English to achieve an order. Just how it should be for any place like this that’s worth its salt.
