Best pupusas (and salsa) I've had in Sacramento! Great service, relaxed ambiance, wide selection of items on the menu, and speedy delivery of food. What more can you ask for? It's worth the drive down Florin Rd. I highly recommend!

The best Menudo in town You can get it with or without hominy, with or without feet. I get it with the homemade corn tortillas. Their huevos rancheros are good. They have it Mexican style or Salvadoran style. As soon as you sit down, they bring you chips with beans and salsa while you are waiting for your food

Finally a great pupusa restaurant in Sacramento!!!! The pupusas are so good and authentic. The platanos are ALWAYS good and just right! I've eaten here like 6 times since discovering this Sacramento gem! The staff is so friendly and makes you feel right at home. I'm so happy to have found some good pupusas!

Food was amazing! Service was top notch and the staff was friendly and accommodating. Our first time here and we will be back! They were delish! The place was small and that means they pour everything into their food not decorating! Do the food is why you come back not the decor.

We visited Pupuseria La Familiar for lunch on a Saturday and found it extremely busy - every single table was full! The ambiance was casual, with colorful walls and some decor. We waited in line to place our to-go order, which gave us time to look at the menu. I chose the Birria Pupusa and Queso Pupusa. Our food took forever to be ready, and at first I thought it was just because they were swamped. However, they did forget about our order, and were very nice/apologetic when they realized it. The pupusas were delicious and very filling. I liked the Birria Pupusa way more than the Queso, which was a bit bland. Highly recommend getting the Birria! The salsa my order came with was super flavorful and pretty spicy. Overall, good for lunch - would return to try more pupusas.

Food is bomb. Service is lightning speed. But that might be because I'm the only other customer. Really solid sound system inside. Papusas got: Camarones Loroco Espinacas Nopales Biria Aqua fresca. Really good.

Ambiance was low key but you can see the cooks make your food from scratch. One of the best meals on a rainy day. Cheesy, spicy, hearty & fresh with curtido (cabbage salad). Service is always nice & it comes with complimentary chips with beans & salsa on top. Will be back!

This is a secret local restaurant that serves authentic pupusas. It's a mom and pop shop so they are super friendly and love their craft! The shop is small but has a good amount of tables. I love how everything comes together cohesively and would absolutely recommend everyone to come check it out!

I first tried to come on Monday evening around 6, but they were closed, so don't trust their listed business hours. It was slightly upsetting since coming here was pretty out of the way for me. I tried again later that week and was relieved to see the open sign. To order, walk to the far end of the counter. The person who helped us out was very kind and welcoming; I believe he had to be the business owner. He was very accommodating and went out of his way to ask if we needed things during our meal (which I wasn't expecting at all from a business that is just counter service). If I was rating this solely on his customer service alone, it would be a 5/5. While I wouldn't say the pupusas were the best ones I've ever tasted, they were pretty good, and at $4/pupusa, I feel like I couldn't really go wrong. They have such a wide variety to choose from too! My husband and I split three for a midday snack (Rebuelta, Nopales, and Rajas). I've been craving a cactus pupusa, so it wasn't surprising that I personally really enjoyed this one. They are served with a side of pickled cabbage (curtido). It was a good meal with standout service.
