The absolute best pupusas I’ve ever had. They were cheesy, greasy, and just overall yummy. My fiance 🇸🇻 said these were incredible and authentic. 10/10!!!

A sign outside says “aquí se cocina con amor” and you call tell!!! This is a quaint take-out spot with generous outdoor seating. I ordered a variety of vegetarian pupusas—loroco, espinacas, frijol y queso, y jalapeño. My favorite was frijol y queso, though all of them were delicious. If you’re vegan, you can veganize your pupusa for a dollar. $5 per pupusa is more expensive than some places, but they are larger than most.

It’s a take out spot with outdoor dining available only. The pupusas are always fresh and delicious. This time around I had two cheese pupusas to go and got so excited I forgot to take a photo of my food lol. But here are some other pics I took

We order the frijol y queso and it’s soo delish, literally time travelled me back to El Salvador 🇸🇻 where we would buy steaming hot pupusa’s in boiling hot weather while mosquitoes were sipping on my blood. It’s also so filling! I suggest just getting your grimy hands in there and eating it up!

Heard from friends this was a must in the neighborhood. Got the bean and cheese, and spinach pupusas for a total of $9 after having trouble deciding between the many filling options. I didn’t expect there to be seating outside which made it even more of a special experience. The hot sauce on the side was great too. Service was quick and easy. I’ll be back to try more of the menu!

As a fan of Central American cuisine, I was ecstatic to discover this family-owned establishment Each pupusa is made fresh to order, ensuring the highest quality and taste. The pupusas are perfectly cooked, with a crispy exterior and a soft, doughy center. They are generously filled and bursting with flavor. The side of curtido, a cabbage slaw, and tomato sauce complement the pupusas perfectly and add an extra layer of deliciousness. If you're in the Ridgewood area and craving authentic Salvadorian cuisine, Pupusas Ridgewood should be at the top of your list. With their friendly service, delicious food, and affordable prices, it's a dining experience that is not to be missed.

On my quest to try all top rated Ridgewood restaurants I landed at Pupusas. Really homey feel and small inside but big outdoor covered seating. Each pupusa is $4 now and they have so many filling options. I had spinach cheese and chicken mole and they were both delicious but the chicken mole was amazing. I took them to go and it took about 10-12 minutes to be ready

This is literally a hole in a wall, there is only space insde for 2 people, you can call ahead and place your order and they have plenty of seating space outside. Got the chicarron and chorizo and definitely the chorizo was my fave. Prices are not bad at $3 each. Overall a pretty decent pupusa with good flavor. I do feel like the dough (masa) needs some improvement, it was a bit dry and crumbled easily. However, still delicious and enjoyable. They have in house delivery and you can also find them on most food delivery platforms. The satff was courteous and friendly.

Food is good, but customer service is really bad. I requested 4 bags of cabbage lol the lady told me she could only give me 2. I said I paid extra and she charged me $5 for cabbage. Robbing your customers won’t make you rich. Also for 6 pupusas u only entitled to 1 green sauce. She didn’t wanna give red sauce. Don’t recommend it. Run . Done being a regular customer.

Beware!! FAKE SALVI FOOD!! As a Salvadoran, I was excited when a pupusas spot opened so close to me. Sadly, utter disappointment. I am convinced that these are not actual Salvadorans, rather Mexican owned/operated. How? Most obvious, the Horchata. Strong cinnamon oatmeal taste, exactly as Mexi Horchata. NOT the same thing, shame on them for also selling this simple drink for a small at $4.00 Gentrified much?!? Now, if I only that was all but that was the least disappointing issue. Their tamal de elotes and tamal rojo aka sad version of a tamal de gallina, are surely cheap Goya frozen tamales. The kind u get at Stop n Shop. Nothing soft on the corn tamal. Literally a brick! U can pick it up and eat it as u would a candy bar but don't want to bc it has no flavor. Exact same with the chicken tamal. Extra no flavor!! I personally don't cook with salt but that poor tamal desperately needed some! It needed straight saline IV, that's how dehydrated that thing was. Another clue these are Mexicans, the "crema" that goes with the tamal de elote was literal sour cream, as Mexicans use on tacos. Salvi crema is TOTALLY different taste! Again, shameful!! Now the pupusas themselves. I will say, decent for an amateur which says a lot since they've been open for a few years at this point. The chicharon isn't even grinded down, it's chunks of pork. Seriously?! Cheese, definitely mozzarella. Not authentic either. But taste was tolerable at best for a Salvi American like myself. I'm sure gringos love them as they don't know better and not like there's anything to compare to nearby. But don't get me started on the red sauce! It's freaking orange 🍊 literally this color. Why? Bc they cheap out on ingredients. Taste, terrible and pupusas can't be enjoyed without the sauce. The curtido, sad. Just honestly sad. The amount they send is so small and authentic Salvi places send u a good amount of sauce and curtido always. Overall, they make me want to leave my work just to open up an AUTHENTIC Salvi place and make sure they either step up or go out of business bc it's shameful what they're selling and for the prices they're doing it for. Also, they forgot a few items on my order. The delivery guy was soooo nice. They sent him to the wrong address bc the girl on the phone wrote it wrong. But after finding me, he said no worries, he'd go get my pricey Horchata and missing sauces. Had I known theyd be so bad, I would've saved him the trouble but nevertheless, his service was by far the best & ONLY high point of this order. The girl on the phone, she really tried to gaslight me that the address looks wrong and that's why she wrote it wrong. No girl! U read it wrong. Seamless has it written right in the system. You would think that as a courtesy they'd at least send me an upgrade Horchata but nope, she sent the small and not even full bc I asked for no ice. Cheap cheap cheap. Will never order again and better yet, order from Cecilia's instead. They may be pricey too but way better and authentic Salvi food. Also more options. I'm going to El Salvador Wednesday thank God, to rid me of this bad experience. Shame on this restaurant!! Fake Salvi food 10000%
