El Zocalo has the best pupusas. Pupusas are ground corn pockets filled with either cheese, meat and/or beans. They are grilled and melt in your mouth and are served with a cabbage relish that compliments the pupusas flavors.

if you feel like having some pupusas after the club this is the place to be. they are open late night, so if you are hungry and are already in the city, it's convenient. i've only had the pupusa plates and i've always been pleased

I like this place for it's pupusas, they are really good, packed with meat and the masa is perfectly chewy. They also have Mexican selections which are ok, not as good as the pupusas. If you want a good deal, go for the "plato tipico", it's 2 pupusas, a fried empanada (filled with meat), and a Salvadorean tostada, it goes for about $6.50 or so. They have a great drink called "Cola Champagne", tastes like bubble gum... yum.>>>Theie service is definitely on Latin time...super slow. You don't go to this restaurant for they service, only for the food. ALthough, most of the servers are nice, not too professional.>>>This is also a great place to go late at night if you've been out all night drinking and need some grub, it's open until 4 am.>>>This place is super good for pupusas!
