The food is delicious! The pupusas are exactly what I expected, very good! The cheese and flavors go well together! The salsa is different from what I’ve had in the past. It’s much better! Queso and rice are awesome as well! That lemonade is really good! The service is great! The prices are reasonable. The parking is decent. It’s not a huge place but it’s big enough for me. I have no complaints! Everything was good! I highly recommend and I would love to try it again!

Actually the best pupusas I’ve ever had, so many options you can put on it and the salsa was great! Definitely will be back.

This place makes the best pupusas I’ve had. They’re nice and crisp at the edges, soft in the middle. The curtido is crisp and lightly pickled and the warm tomato salsa has just the right touch of oregano. Also love the Mexican antojitos and chile rellenos.

$36 for 6 juices and 45 mins for simple 7 pupusas. The Chicharones and yuca tasted flavorless and frozen. +$70 for all of this was not worth it. The waiter only came to order, leave drink, and the drop off the check. Not sure if I would consider this as service. Its not the same from many years ago. They don’t give you a breakdown of the receipts.

Alamance county’s best kept secret! If you’re looking for REAL authentic Hispanic food, this is the place for you. It’s not fancy. There are no white linen tablecloths. However the food is fantastic and the service is outstanding. My favorite is the Pollo Giovanni. Breakfast is awesome as well.

Wow! This place is incredible. Authentic El Salvadorian food. The casamiento was out of this world – easily the best rice and beans I’ve ever had!! We ordered a variety of pupusas, ranked below in order by our favorite:
1. Zucchini and cheese
2. Breakfast (available all day)
3. Bean and cheese
4. Spinach and cheese (would try pork too next time)
5. Chicken and cheese
I live in the triangle and will definitely be making the trip out whenever I’m in the mood for pupusas because these are the best around.

Pollo Giovanni is delicious, rice spiced just right and cheesey broccoli topper+woot. Steak taco sliced and spicy, chicken taco seasoned just right.

What a fantastic meal! Wonderful service. Took the recommendations of the waitress and was not disappointed. Hubby had the tacos, and I had the Pollo ala Glovanni to share with him.
