I had veg papusas and burrito delivered from this place and the food was so fresh and good. Really liked it and this was my first time eating papusas which I would compare with Indian parantha but with a twist. Would definitely make an effort to go to this place and try sometime

Delicious! It was like getting a hug from the inside. The ingredients were obviously fresh, and high quality. They made the food as it is ordered. Service was great--everyone was very nice. We had the jamaica juice and horchata. Loved the jamaica, but horchata not quite to our tastes. We had delicious churros, tacos, and the pupusas. The revuelta was our favorite. We will definitely be looking for an opportunity to come back here! It was nice inside the restaurant. Small, but clean. Looked like it was remodeled relatively recently.

Super vegan friendly and delicious Latin American food! I have never had pupusas before, so I was so excited to see vegan pupusas on the menu. I ordered from DoorDash and the pupusas were delicious, filled with vegan cheese, vegan meat, and beans. They also came with curtidos which were a nice accompaniment . Highly recommend!

Solid pupusas! Came by on a Friday for a light late lunch. Pupusas made to order and I like that they have vegan options. Tried the vegan cheese and beans, and then the carne asada for both ends of the spectrum. Both were excellent. Pupusas always take a while so keep that in mind, but that's the trade off for freshly handmade food! Note that they are a bit on the pricey end: two pupusas plus 18% tip was $13, but 3-4 would've made a more substantial lunch. My two were more of a snack. For the cost, I wish there was just a bit more curtido and sauce (or offered the option of a spicy sauce). Still, I enjoyed the pupusas and would definitely come back for more next time I'm in the area, especially with the vegan options!

The food is delicious. I have a Carnitas burrito bowl with everything. And a Horchata for a drink. Highly recommend this little place.

This is my first meal of today and I'm glad I came here first. Been a really rough day and I know I needed to have a good homestyle cooked meal. There are a few meals that come close to anything Mexican and in Menlo Park, this is my go to spot. Coming in on a rainy day there weren't too many people so it was easy to order without the extra noise in the background. The restaurant is full of natural light painted with bright colors and a welcoming atmosphere whether you are ordering to take out or eating in. The service was quick and easy And I had my meal in less than 20 minutes. I ordered the taco plate switching out regular tacos for vegan tacos and with a drink and tip it came to just about $20. Definitely a great bargain for your dollar especially with the economy the way it is today.I'm glad to be a faithful customer to this restaurant and I look forward to the next meal.
