I took my girls there for lunch and sat on the patio. There was already a menu on the table so we could look it over even though we all knew what we wanted. I was going to get up at that point and walk in but another patron showed up and went inside to get a menu, so I figured a server will be out soon. I was correct, a server did come out but ignored us and spoke to her and her very hostile dog, which she later put in the car. Yes! We where waiting long enough to watch that. The server brought her water, condiments, silverware while we were invisible, no eye contact and no greeting. I told my girls that we would waste 2 more minutes of our lives and no more. Then we got up and left. That’s the great thing about Grand Ave. there’s a place to eat every 100 ft. So, we went to Fusion and had a great lunch. 47$ tab 10$ tip. I will never go back. Too bad, it’s only good food if you can get it. Sad, before covid we used to get lunch once a week there.

Service here can be really hit or miss. Usually it's the girls who spend all their time in the back and have an attitude, especially if you're picking up because the orders are rarely on time. When we eat here it's better but it can still be incredibly slow even when there's only one or two other tables full here. I like some of the food but I come here less and less because of the service. And this is not a new problem, I've been coming here for years even before the pandemic.

This place is delicious my husband and I got the platter of different little el Salvadorian treats and everything was superb! What I loved is that we left feeling just right in fullness and while the food is fried it doesn’t feel yucky or greasy or give you a bad feeling afterward. My husband and I shared one platter and it was perfect for a light and satisfying Occasional guilt free dinner! We will be coming back, a lot! 😂

First time here. Got here half an hr before closing. Popusas were delicious wait was a bit long but well worth it. Waitress was nice. If in this area again I would for sure stop again.

Went there this past weekend, got 6 or 7 pupusas and they were all delicious! Loved the taste. Got the empinada dessert and equally delicious. I had been here once before about 5-6 years ago with some friends and I'm very glad to have tried it again. Will be back to try the other dishes based on my enjoyment of the pupusas.

We ate dinner with friends on a Friday night two weeks ago for the first time since the pandemic. It was during “Cruisin Grand”, and it was very busy. Glad we had a table since we had a comedy show to attend after. We were 3 couples and we shared an assorted plate of appetizer which was delicious. Our dinners were tasty. Our server was very nice. We will definitely come back again.

Food was filling, delicious, but still felt fresh and not too heavy in my stomach. The spicy salsa was earthy and full of flavor. Pupusa here was incredible. fluffy corn tortillas with the perfect seared crisp edges. Service was outstanding, outside seating was great. Horchata must be made in house, felt just like abuelita used to make 🥰

Great little spot to get delicious Pupusas. Tried the Pan con pollo as well and it was fantastic. The chicken was seasoned perfectly and the bread roll tasted freshly made. I took away 1 star, because 2 out of my 3 Pupusas were a bit undercooked for my liking.
