Pupuseria San Salvador

AMAZING!!! Amazing and one of the only paces to get banana wrapped tamales in Denver m

Someone here said "small place but with big flavor" that is so true! Pupuseria San Salvador is what I've been looking for in Denver/Colorado since I've moved here! They're authentic salvadorean food, the pupusas are 10/10. The size of them aren't too small and they're very full with the filling. The cheese pull is stretchy and gooey, everything you want from a pupusa and the flavor of the fillings are amazing. We're pretty traditional in my house and we ordered, cheese with beans, cheese with chicharrón and cheese with loroco which is a plant that is edible. I will say I would've hoped for more curtido (which is like a salvadorean sauerkraut side) with the amount of pupusas we ordered. The salsa and curtido come with any order of pupusas. the flavor of the curtido and red salsa was very good and authentic. The price is extremely fair for a pupusa which I'm happy about. If you're looking for good pupusas this is the place to come! We will deff. Order from here on now. The woman who took my phone order was the sweetest and super accommodating as I was ordering for a pick up set time. Service was amazing at pick up as well and I want to add that they do accept card payments.

First time trying these and oh my gosh...can you fall in love with a Pupuseria!!! The carne one is the best followed by queso and then bean.The carne is moist with such a deep flavor of spices (not hot spicy...I am a whimp LOL!).The beans are creamy with a tad of chunky bean and just so flavorful and the queso one was so good with the crispy cheese on the outside.The masa is moist and just the right thickness along with the ratio of filling was perfect. We got takeout this time around.

We happened to be driving home from Denver to Littleton, and passed by. I made my husband turn around. This was the first PUPUSERIA we had seen in a year (since our move from CA to CO) I entered and the smells were wonderful. I knew what I wanted. And made our order. Four 'mixed (cheese/meat)' and two large Horchatas (Mexican type)While waiting I chatted with Maura, the owner. The food is fresh, I loved watching her prepare our food. $25 for allCame home and surprised my Salvadoran daughter!! She immediately opened and prepared the 'salad' and sauce to her pupusa. My four year old grandson enjoyed his. He said; 'I like pupusa's', and we already knew he would love horchata. We will be back. I cannot wait to try the Salvadoran Tamales. And of course bring home more pupusa's. Thank you Maura!!

Super friendly and consistently amazing every time. Just leave a little extra time to wait, even for pick ups. Great food takes time!

We stopped by today and were very impressed. Good menu selection's, excellent service and delicious food. We were fortunate enough to have the owner help us understand the menu, our first time with El Salvadoran foods, and it won't be our last visit. If you're in the area give them a try.

Simple, delicious. Had two pupusas (beware, they're filling!) -- one queso y frijol (beans), one queso y loroco ("flower," more like a big bud). Both delicious, served with curtido (Salvadoran slaw) and flavorful salsa.

The Popusas is what I really recommend! I've tried all of them! Even though I loved them all I really recommend the camarón con queso! That one was delicious. 2 hard working woman! They're always making everything fresh so your food might take a minute but it is worth it! The customer service is amazing they both are sweet! Mom & daughter. 4.50 for a Popusa! So cheap for how good they're! Try this place if you're craving a popusa ! I really recommend it!

I've eaten pupusas in many places in Miami in Los Angeles, even in El Salvador and these were by far the best ones I've had in my life ( and I am not being hyperbolic ) perhaps even better than my Tia Carmen's dare I say lol they do not skimp on the filling and the curtido and salsa have just the right amount of flavor and spice. Literally phenomenal.I see some negative reviews here mainly from people who ordered Mexican food at a Salvi restaurant. For those not culturally aware, Mexican food and Salvi food are very different. Salvi restaurants tend to advertise and serve Mexican food for those not familiar with Salvi cuisine for the sake of keeping up with business but normally it's not the best. It's like going to a Japanese restaurant and ordering Chinese food. You're bound to be disappointed people. It is not the same, just saying. Take the leap try a pupusa and you might have a change of heart. Time to acculturate to diverse experiences and food !!

Great and friendly service! Me encanta sus pupusas y el curtido está riquísimo, súper recomendable.
