Alex D.Alex Dobyan: Absolutely the most amazing pupusas of my life. Get one of the combos, you won't regret it (need a lil side of beans with these bad boys).

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.
