Lupita's Mexican and Latin American Restaurant: Reviews & Ratings
BEST pupusa and service ive had/seen in a WHILE. the flavor in the pupusas had me tweaking in a good way and it came with curtido and salsa. the people working the place are amazing! I came right before closing (they even had the lights off) and happily took my order making it the best thing ive ever tried. they turned the lights on for me and made sure i got everything i needed and felt comfortable waiting. will definitely come back with more time. the place looked very clean and well lit. 10/10 for the food upkeep of the restaurant and service!
The food is always excellent. I love the Pupusas; they remind me of my step-father's (who's a Salvadorian.)
Wow!! The place is great! I ordered the cheese pupusa and the mixed one, and it was fantastic!! I have been craving Salvadorian food for a while and my friend recommended this place. Easily one of the best Salvadorian restaurants I have ever ate at. The woman who took my order was also very polite and the food didn't take too long. I didn't eat there, I ordered to go; however, I did wait inside and use their restroom. Very clean establishment and a very nice calm ambiance. I will be coming back again soon! 5 stars!
Wow, had pupusas for the first time and they were great! Got the appetizers while we waited for our entrees to go. Huge portions!
Excellent food and good services! I definitely recommend the pupusas they were amazing and nice and big.
Amazing authentic restaurant with Central American cuisine. We randomly came across this spot and ate here this evening and absolutely loved the food and atmosphere. We are on a road trip from Victoria BC and enjoy trying different authentic foods. The owner and her grand daughter were amazing and very helpful! We loved everything we ate. I would eat here and again and highly recommend this place.
Amazing spot in Norfolk! My friends and I were visiting for the weekend and this was definitely our favorite place. Cheap prices and amazing tasting food, would recommend stopping by if you're in the area!! Also, restaurant was pretty empty when we went by but they make the food to order so there's still a 20-30 min wait time. I would recommend calling ahead if you're getting takeout!
