Must try these delicious, fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked pupusas. Great portions and friendly service. Highly recommend! Salsa was a bit spicy but it was delicious. Placed my order over the phone once I arrived my order was ready.

The little restaurant has the best Mexican/Salvadoran food I have had. It is authentic, freshly made and delicious. The abuela cooking in here knows what she is doing. If you are someone looking for the same old Mexican food you find everywhere else go elsewhere. But if you want some rightly seasoned, crispy, delicious carnitas this is your spot. They are generous with their portion sizes and friendly. The wait times are long and food is fresh. I like it when it’s too hot to put in your mouth.
The carnitas taco and Loroco and revueltas de chicharron are amazing. But you can’t go wrong with the burritos, caldos or seafood.
All my friends that love rightly seasoned food love it here.
I hope they never change they truly are a hidden gem like another reviewer posted. This lady knows what she is doing!
The guy crying his meat was burnt and overly salted should stick to McDonald’s.
Edit: chicken mole and anything carnitas is delicious!

If you’re looking for the best chilaquiles in the area, this is the place. I come here at least once a week just for their red chilaquiles, they’re that good. The flavor is consistently amazing, and the service is always warm and welcoming.

Best freaking pupas con lorocho I’ve had in a long time, great central and South American foods and the market has all the specialty items I can’t find in the American or Mexican markets around! 10/10 I’ll be back all the time weather to eat or buy products to cook or clean!

Got the Asada burrito paid about $10, all the Asada is burned & hard. Beans and rice has no flavor. Complete Trash I couldn’t even finish it.

Delicious and fresh. If I was a taco I’d wanna be in this kitchen.

El Chapín is hands down the best spot for authentic Central American food in Lake Elsinore! The pupusas were perfectly made—crispy on the outside, cheesy, and flavorful on the inside. The Guatemalan tamalito was incredibly soft, moist, and packed with delicious flavor. Everything tasted fresh and homemade, just like you’d get in El Salvador and Guatemala. The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was welcoming. If you’re craving authentic pupusas and Guatemalan tamalitos, this is the place to go! Highly recommend!

The eating place sits in the back of the market, they specialize in Guatemalan Food, what a surprise all was good, I recomend you do not come very hungry, it takes a while to get your food, most has to be made to order, the pupusas are out of this world, the Guatemala Tamales are hot and tasty, come once or every day!
