Pupusas are very good. The repollo and salsa even better. We ordered them to go and even when we got home, they were still hot and delicious. I had already eaten, and I had to have more. I am not a fan of pupusas but these were good. I will be going back for more. The ratio of masa to filling was perfect. And they were not greasy just the right amount of fat and they were not dry or over charred.
