Reviews
"Amazing food, very courteous and attentive to any of our needs!"
"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!"
"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."
"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!"
"Pupusas are delicious, large and priced fair. (Most are $2 each) They serve large portions of cortido and two bottles of salsa. The other entree we ordered was incredible. Meat was tender, delicious, sauce was incredible and the rice & beans were perfectly prepared."
