I am so confused by the 5 stars. Maybe there family members or friends. I went to granada hills saw all the trucks decided to get pupusas (1st time trying). Bought 3 pupusas for 17.50 (ok that 's way pricier than most actually amazing pupusa places) but I was like if they are good and worth it why not pay.. 1st red flag he said do you want a bag or not because If you do I have to charge an extra 25 cents. Like if i 'm not already paying enough for pupusas to include the bag. Anyway there was no line, not even 1 person ahead of me. I waited and let the guy know I would go walk around to check out the other trucks. Walked around came back they were still not ready. Waited there and watch him m...

Almost $90 for a family of 4... I would have gotten more food at the same price anywhere else. Usually I try to leave some type of positive review. This food truck that goes by Pupusas on Wheels and charges you as Big Grandma's Kitchen fails every aspect possible. I experienced thier food truck at a Dia de Los Murtos event at Forest Lawn Memorial in Covina. At first I thought the food was going to be worth it because of what their prices where. I'm a strong believer in you get what you pay for. Yet the the size of the food was not even close to average. The pupusas where very small, maybe that's why they hide there prices in such small numbers. Then to top it off, the food was ordered togo....
I recently attended a food truck event in Valencia where I ordered six pupusas, one order of garlic fries, and a drink, and it came to a staggering $80. To make matters worse, when I asked for a bag to carry my food, they tried to charge me an additional 50 cents for a plastic bag. It's ridiculous—these prices are exorbitant compared to what you would find in other neighborhoods. It felt like blatant price gouging; I was in Valencia, after all. They also made me wait 30 minutes to receive my order. If these prices were standard, this food truck would struggle to stay in business, because no one in their right mind would pay $20 for three pupusas anywhere else. Total rip-off!
--- Not authentic Salvadoran food at all. The pupusas were the worst I’ve ever had—undercooked and served in small portions that were overpriced. I highly recommend sticking to your local pupusa stands instead. I commented about my experience on Instagram, but they deleted my comment. The person taking orders was very rude. The food was disappointing, and the service was terrible. I wish I could give zero stars, but that's not an option! I’ve also read the owner’s responses to one-star reviews, and they don't seem to handle feedback well. Réservez une table maintenant
Chef Lima is incredibly rude; just take a look at his snarky responses on Yelp and other platforms. He might end up thanking me for the one-star rating. If you want to spend $22 on mediocre, overly salty food, go ahead. Be sure to bring your own utensils, bags, and condiments—maybe even your own grandma, since she might know how to cook better. Businesses depend on good customer service and quality products, and this place doesn't offer either.
I watched this truck park in front of a lady selling valentines baskets on the corner in Pasadena. She asked if he could just pull up a few more feet in order to allow cars passing by to see the items she has for sale, but he refused. Even thought the lady was at the spot first, he refused to even compromise. His actions speaks volumes and i definitely wouldn't buy anything from him after that behavior.
Food is so good. As a vegan I love the variety.The service is always good and polite. I love the truck and the ambience at the farmers market. I suggest the beans, the fried Platanos, and any of the veggie pupusas. The yucca is bomb too.
Best pupusas I have ever eaten. Ordered asada, chorizo, and bean and cheese. Super friendly staff and delicious flavors. Do not hesitate if you see them! Réservez une table maintenant
Incredible food, and the sweetest people. I will support them forever so long as they continue to make excellent food.
Randomly found this place. Delicious food. Definitely will be back in the future. New favorite pupusa spot
