Awesome Pupusas. Glad I drove around to find the location. It is actually located in 'el mercado central'. Great pupusas, if you are from El Salvador, and miss pupusas this place has got you covered.

Wow Wow Wow. From San Salvador to Denver, CO to San Diego, CA, these pupsas made my day! Queso y Jalapeno, que RICO!!! Best flavor ever!!! I checked and the beans are made with manteca. So they still offer the vegetarians an option. Thank you!!! AND SO DANG GOOOD! These pupusas are my favorite Latin American food, including la comida mexicana, although I love the Elote in the garage at Plaza California on Lake St, and love the vegetarian food at Salsa a la Salsa in Global Market. But these pupasas are as good, or better. Ok better. Better than any torta I have found in MSP. And I love tortas. These are awesome. A los duenos: Just want to make sure that the frijoles are made with or without manteca? Gracias

I have eaten here three time in the last week alone! I recommend the Locoro pupusas with the pork, cheese, and beans. Their horchata is the right amount of sweet. The Mexican coke was delicious and really tied the meal together. 10/10!

These are, in my opinion, the best pupusas in town unless you're in someone's home. Platanos are also delicious.

Was looking for a delicious pupusa and I found it! Wish I lived closer, I'd visit all of the time. Friendly, great customer service! Delicious fried plantains, too.
