Pupuseria Anita

Very delicious pupusas. My favorites were the:1. Bean and cheese pupusa/frijol and cheese2. Cheese pupusa3. Squash pupusaI think the frijol and queso pupusa is my favorite. The bean and cheese pupusa is seasoned well and has a good texture. You get salsa and a slaw that adds a little crunch. Try it out!

Delicious! My favorite are the plátanos rellenos which are a dessert! So good. Definitely coming back

Second time here, much better experience however first time was during COVID. Pupusas are solid here, especially the queso y loroco (favorite) and queso y calabazo. The Curtido a little different than what I'm used to having back in Cali. Coworker ordered the chicken and yucca lunch special, which she loved. Great lunch option near work.

"Excellent Salvadorean pupuseria and more in Braggtown area of Durham!"We came to try this at around 6pm on a Friday evening. The restaurant is unassuming and sits near the end of a long strip mall. A few other families were eating. One goes to the counter to order (dine-in or carry-out), and the food is then brought to you. The menu is not long-- pupusas (similar to "small but fat quesadillas", if you haven't had one), a few appetizers, and a couple of dishes. They also had three kinds of drinks-- horchata, a tasty mango drink, and a third I don't recall.My wife and I split 4 dishes: a pair of chicken tamales, an order of 3 pupusas with cheese and "loroco" (edible buds from a flower), chicken & potato empanadas, and plantain empanadas. We also got the horchata and the mango drink.Food came out maybe 10 minutes after we ordered, and it was HOT-- clearly just out of the frier for some of them. The masa in the chicken tamales was smooth and SUPER yummy-- I think there could have been a bit more filling, but the taste was still excellent. The chicken and potato empanadas were also really good. I liked the pupusas, but they were a bit mild in taste for me-- I might go for chicken next time, but it was good with the cabbage slaw (see below). And the plantain empanadas were VERY good and super sweet. It's almost like a fried stuffed plantain (also coated with some sugar)-- we couldn't quite tell what the white stuff in the middle was-- my wife thought maybe actual banana, but I wondered if it was some sort of sweet cream filling. Both the savory empanadas and the pupusas came with a side of the cabbage slaw that was quite good-- definitely had some heat to it but not overwhelming. And the drinks were delicious, though the horchata seemed to have an almost chocolate-milk like flavor which was unexpected.The price was SUPER cheap-- pupusas were under $3 each, tamales under $2, etc. We spent $36 including tax and tip and still brought a good bit of food home with us.Service was fine. Neither of us was fluent in Spanish, and the host's English was moderate, so we had a bit of difficulty asking questions (e.g., whether the drinks had dairy/ milk), but it worked out, and he was friendly enough.Overall, we VERY much enjoyed the quality and value of the food we got. High probability we'll return.

I originally planned to try all of the pupusas in Durham before settling on a favorite, but after coming here, I've tried nowhere else. I have zero regrets.I call in my order before leaving home, and the pupusas ($2 each) are ready by the time I get there. The pork and cheese are my favorite, but I also like bean and cheese as well as the chicken and cheese. They are stuffed full and cooked perfectly, and the curtido is the best I've had. They also put the salsa on the side, which is nice so the curtido does not get soggy on the way home! The mango juice is AMAZING and so cheap. Get the large- you'll want it.Are you still reading? Just order the pupusas already!

Came across this gem today when it popped up! Pupusas are good and seem to be made once orders are placed! I did mine 'to go' since I only had a limited time for lunch. Wait time for the food was about 15 min(?) not bad for something that's made 'fresh'. Pupusas were good! The ratio between filling and the outer part was perfect! The slaw adds slight spice but not a whole lot. If anything, it adds texture when eating the pupusas which, I'm all about texture :)The salsa kind of tastes like homemade tomato sauce like but not really...not really sure how to describe it but definitely enjoyed it with the pupusas and slaw!Got a side of empanadas de platano and I have to say I think this is a new fave! Never had anything like it. I'm used to plantains but not in an empanadas format it's quite different! Would recommend to try! Also l, saw that they had horchata as well so definitely had to try! Sweet for my taste but wasn't bad! Would get again :)

Delicious pupusas! My Salvadoreña family loved the good from here! Try their plátanos empanadas

Everything is good here. But if you can order the rice masa pupusas; they are the best!

I requested rice pupusas and this the second time this is happening to me they give them me corn pupusas. So upset when I call back to let them know I was told they was nothing they can do! so mad because I am pregnant an I was craving rice pupusas and I could not get them.

Simplemente no hay comparación con este lugar. Es tranquilo y delicioso! THE BEST of the best.
