Customer Reviews
They have a very limited menu. I order a tamale and they served it luckwarm. I order 4 pupusas and tamales and it came out to $55. I didn't make want to make a problem but this would be the last time I am coming here.
I've been coming to this bakery and restaurant for a few years. My favorite itens are the bean and cheese pupusas and the platanos. Yummy! Pupusas are a homemade small corn tortilla filled with beans, pork, chicken or beef and queso cheese. They are grilled until slightly crispy on the outside. The platanos are grilled plaintains with usually a little butter and sugar on top. This particular place makes the best South American food. Their bakery is traditionally Guatemalan desserts like sweet bread, with various jelly toppings. The price is reasonable based on the quality and portion of food they give the customer.
Definitely worth the drive to Van Nuys to try it out. A+ food!! 🍌🌮🍪
Food is expensive for the portions they give. Not always warm and rice was ok last time. Workers give off a bad vibe when you walk in and with the way they take your order. Sometimes they're cool. 3 stars is for the bread and atoles they have.
They got my order wrong . I asked for a torta and they gave me a plate. Didn't notice until I got to the jobsite. I clearly said torta.
Do not go there. They sell old and stale sweetbread. One partucular bread called maria Luisa was slimy becaused of expired milk. Upon taking it back she gave my wife attitude and after poking on the bread and breaking it apart to attempt to prove otherwise, she returned it claiming it was ok and refused to return the money. Add to that, the semita and other bread i purchased was old. Avoid at all cost!
