⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 — Nathan Silvia
New to Chelsea, this place is within walking distance from me. I pass by daily while walking the dogs. Today I finally decided to try it out, the pupusas where packed with meat and cheese. They were also hot and fresh! Definitely hits the spot!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Anthony Ospina
The steak was perfectly seasoned, juicy, and full of that smoky street-style flavor that hits different. The pupusas? Soft, cheesy, and straight fire 🔥 easily some of the best I’ve had around Boston. Delivery was fast, everything came hot and fresh, and Alex made the whole experience even better with amazing service and attention to detail. If you haven’t tried this spot yet, do yourself a favor this is the kind of flavor that keeps you coming back. #soldbyanthony__

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — leticia valsechi
i've been ordering from here for about 6 months. the food is unmatched. everything made to order. my usual order: pupusas, gorditas, chincharron. the pupusas are HOT, to the point where you cant even pick it up, it's sooo fresh, light, delicious. 10/10 the gorditas are very generous, nice and hot 10/10 chincharron is always nice and crispy you can tell they just fried it. 10/10 and today i just ordered the sopa de camarones, i was thinking it was a small bowl and its a WHOLE big container, i'd say it's enough for 3 people if you pair it with the rice that it comes with (and 2 tortillas). you CANT BEAT THIS PLACE!!!!!! the price is super fair, amazing portions, good service, amazing food. i've definitely ordered over 15 times, and it's always great. THANK YOU!!!!
