Michelle L.Michelle Lee: Best one: mushroom & garlic for $3. Essential post-bar stop in the Mission.

Matthew J.Matthew Joseph: I highly recommend "pupusas con loroco y queso" (pupusas with loroco flower and cheese). Don't be afraid; loroco "flower" is just a kind of green veggie--they pick the blossoms before they bloom.

AskMenAskMen: The Salvadorean papusas at the bare bones 16th Street location are the best in the Mission. A papusa is a thick corn tortilla stuffed with pork, cheese or beans, sounds great to us.

carocaro: The Gallo pinto and cacao has always been good

SimplySimply: The food is good, but expensive for non-organic. The cashiers are NOT FRIENDLY.

Rachel R.Rachel Rebecca: People are right, when they say the food here is not great, the food reminds of cafeteria food, perhaps a bigger portion and maybe cleaner but, no doubt terrible quality for a high price

Luke B.Luke Bornheimer: The vegie trio (empanada, panuchos and salbutes) was eclectic, delicious and filing for the awesome price of $9. The complimentary chips (on the crunchier side) and salsas were also solid.

Luis F.Luis Flores: just go for the mayan platter and don't be shy with the citric habanero salsa.. tortillas are handmade and crispy, delicious mayan cuisine.

RenatoRenato: You can order a la carte salbutes and panuchos even if they're not on the menu
