I love this place. My favorite spot to get a breakfast burrito because They put just enough servings inside the burrito and its always wrapped so nice. I also liked the carne asada burrito, the pupusas and the service is good. Very nice people.

Not so busy restaurant at Market Street. I believe its family run businees- already liked it. I ordered Spicy Pork burrito which tasted delicious. The meat was very tasty. I recommend this place.

This place has some of the best Donuts! They are very nice people. They go out of their way to make sure they always have my special donuts . Don't ask what it is because they won't have any when I go! They also warm up my donuts you can't get that type of service everywhere! They are clean and affordable and happy to serve you!

This place appears to be known for their pupusas, but I got a taco instead. I’ll have to go back to try their speciality. The folks there where friendly and many of the customers appears to be regulars so that’s a good sign. My shrimp taco was great.

The pupusas here are by far the best in Richmond, the closest to authentic Salvadorean flavor I’ve found. The revueltas, the chicharron con queso and the Frijol con queso are my absolute favorites. The pupusas are silky and perfectly made, not overly thick or heavy masa like others I’ve tried. They also give you a huge amount of CURTIDO no need to go back and ask for more, which I love. The ladies who work here are always smiling and welcome me. It is a small restaurant but full of charm, for now this is definitely my go-to pupusa spot!

Their pupusas are ok, just ok. Nothing special! Maybe I’m just spoiled, but having grown up in San Francisco with plenty of Salvadorean friends, I’ve had good pupusas! These were rather bland. They really deserve a 3 star, but I’ll be generous and give them 4 stars, maybe I’ll give them another try in another day but not excited about it. Did I mention the place needs to be cleaned up and not have it so run down?
