This place is one of my low key favorites when I am visiting family in Des Moines or just happen to be passing through town. It is close to another awesome spot in Thai Flavors and becomes a two for one to go order stop of deliciousness with some diversity thrown in to your day. I seriously order 10-12 papusa of assorted flavors and if you don’t know what those are google what you have been missing out on. The todo is super tasty, but my wife and I love them all. They have traditional beverages as well that are a special treat and unique. View the pictures below at the menu items. I hate to give away my little spots, but this place is too good not to share anymore! Highly highly recommend!

Pupusas are delicious, large and priced fair. (Most are $2 each) They serve large portions of cortido and two bottles of salsa.

If you want authentic El Salvadorian food, this is the spot. The atmosphere feels like home. The staff is great and the food is amazing. You truly won’t be disappointed! I love their pupusas de queso con flor de calabaza. Perfect and to die for!

Hidden Gem right here in DSM! If you have not tried a PUPUSA before then here is the place to go! For only $2.50 or less per. I can’t say enough about this place! Great service, local and authentic.

One of the best pupusa veneers in the area with other authentic Salvadorian dishes and great customer service I highly recommend trying it out

Food is a 5 star and I would’ve given it a 5 star but the attention to the customer slacks a bit. It’s not horrible by any means. I think just adding a louder chime to the back of the restaurant to signal the waitress of someone walking in or out should do the trick. Besides that food is great

Cute food truck with a small array of Salvadorian food like papusas! They were very nice! They speak Spanish and English!

Melissa was so quick to get our drinks and orders in. She was very kind and was cleaning tables doing everything. I was very impressed with the service she provided. It’s very hard to find employees these days with great attitude and such passion to help their hungry customers. Our food was so good. These are the best Pupusas in Iowa. I had some cheese ones, chicharron ones (pork cracklings) and loroco (herbs and cheese). Our friends and I took 2 people that have never tried pupusas in their lives and they were in love. We took some for the office and they loved them.
