This stall has so many delicious options - both drink and food! Popular with locals and tourists. I think they are a bit overpriced, but at least it was yummy.

Gave me severe food poisoning. Food was ok but very greasy. I had a pupusa, tamal, and chicken empanada. The pupusas are made fresh but the tamales and the empanadas sit out for an extended period of time.

The pupusa ladies did not disappoint! The empanadas and tamales were particularly good! It appears they might only be open on weekends. We looked for them on Wednesday and Thursday with no luck but found them on Friday evening!

Great food of all sorts: heavy and light; spicy and not; meat, veg, and vegan. Friendly ladies running the place, and maybe a little Mayan around the prep table.
