A friend and I came after a trip from Dallas. My friend was starving so we saw a pupusa buffet and set. The plaza we pulled up to isn't the most up kept. When we entered we were welcomed Jason server took real care of us he was very hospitable. He showed us the menu and explained the menu to us thoroughly. The buffet was pretty limited on selection but was pretty good with having pupusas made by order. The pupusas didn't take more than 10 minutes to come out which I appreciated. I tried all 8 so you wouldn't have to my favorites were the Pupusas Loroco and chicharrón. The service was really good but my only concern was the restroom floors being filled with water. I was told it was due to a machine in the back being broken. Honestly the explanation of why it was wet was poor but I saw it as a major safety hazard of someone slipping. The water wasn't backup it was clean there actually might have been soap in the water. Outside of that everything else was pretty good.

An El Salvadoran friend of mine said she had a hankering for pupusas so after some searching I came across this place and decided to give it a go. The place was pretty dead, but it was 8pm or so, interestingly people actually came in even later than we did. I decided to hit up the buffet in order to try a few different things while my friend just had a plate with two pupusas. I thought the pupusas were good but some were hotter/fresher than others #buffetproblems. Not a huge selection, but about a half dozen different types of pupusas and some other things available. She said that the food was solid and authentic, but not quite as good as her mom's pupusas. Overall I enjoyed it and would go back, but I didn't like how they pre-included a 20% tip. Not sure if this is a buffet thing or just on all the checks. $12 for the buffet, including tax, tip and drink is a pretty good price!

The place is very clean but overpriced for the buffet. $11.99 for the buffet. Pupusas were ok not the best I've tasted or even great for that matter. I wouldn't say i will be coming back. Price included drink and tamales. Also, we had to wait every-time we wanted a specific type of pupusa as they dont keep alot of pupusas out.

Really enjoyed the Salvadorean food here, the place was clean and well taken care of. There was a buffet option but we ordered off the menu. My husband's from El Salvador and vouches that these Pupusas are legit. I personally love yucca frita and chicharon, everything was cooked well and tasted fresh. The bathroom was also really clean which is half the battle with any restaurant in my eyes. Lots of agua frescas to choose from and some pantry items for purchase. Overall recommend, enjoy! As others have noted the surrounding area is a bit sketchy and there are random guys hanging around the corner store down the way but we went in the afternoon with a baby and didn't have any trouble.

This is a good pupusa buffet. They also have a menu that you can order plates from. I ordered the $9.95 buffet which included unlimited pupusas, caldo de pollo, tamales and aguas frescas. Well worth the price. They also have spicy and non spicy salsa and spicy and non spicy encurtido. The servers are helpful and friendly and the dining area is comfortable to eat in. I would come here again when I'm in Houston again.

very flavorful Pupusas and a variety of other options in the buffet as well. Marañon and other drinks are included in the price making it one of the best bangs for your buck in Houston for pupusas.

Another of the Cocina Latina chain. I don't know why they don't make their signage more obvious. Every location I've been to has been vastly different even though they're not more than 1-2 miles from each other. This is the definitely the cleanest even though the location is sketchy. There are guys just hanging outside the convenience store in the same strip doing nothing.I was the only customer when I entered at 6pm on a Saturday. Maybe why everything looked so clean and the buffet looked untouched. However, after the bad experience I had at the Bellaire location, I ordered off the menu. The prices were slightly higher than Sabor but at least it looked and tasted like the kitchen made my food fresh rather than grab it off the buffet. My huevos rancheros were tasty and so were my pupusas loroco without being mushy or having burned cheese. When I finished my meal at 7pm, large groups of families were starting to chow down on their plates.
