Pupusas were excellent and larger than I expected as was the churro. Takes a minute to get your food and that because it’s made fresh and to order.

No matter how busy, or what you order, wait is minimum 45 minutes

Wonderful scratch food! Very authentic. Stopped here while traveling through the town. Whole family loved it!! A little slow, but expected when everything is made to order. So don’t expect fast food.

Excellent food at great prices. We go for tacos and so far not disappointed. Asada, fish, chicken and adobada are yummy. Tacos are not mini street style, they are regular sized handfuls of heaven. There’s a bit of a wait, since it’s a mom and pop place but well worth it.

7/5/2022: its okay. Waited 30 minutes for 2 pupusas and 2 tacos. I died a little when I saw the styrofoam plates.Order the pollo and abodado tacos. Meat was well seasoned unfortunately the corn tortilla was very thin and didnt hold up well.Ordered the chicharron and bean & cheese pupusas. Flavor was good but the were bigger than Im used to.

Terrible pupsas, I was so excited to try these because my friends rave about them. They were super thin and burnt on the edges and had some burnt spots all over in different places. They charge $3.25 for each and definitely not worth the price, I bought 8 just to throw 7 in the trash. 😞

Very reasonable prices and nice portions! The pupusas were delicious. They were lacking flavor and the wait time from placing the order to getting them was awhile, but they were very fresh and authentic. Make sure you have time to wait while the food is prepped, but if you have patience your hunger will be rewarded!

Quite frankly, Sals Pupuseria may be my favorite lunch spot in Idaho Falls.I love pupusas and would frequent different spots in Southern California and Vegas. Sals Pupuseria is as close as it gets in Idaho Falls.The Loroco Y Queso pupusa is my favorite, no matter where I am. Its basically herbs & cheese but so delicious. The curtido (cabbageat Sals is a great addition and well seasoned.The carne asada taco was good. It was flavorful and bigger than your average street taco. However, it was pretty greasy. Use several napkins and then wash your hands right after type of greasy...but thats where the flavors at! Lol.Prices are slightly higher than the other places Im accustomed to. However, my options in Idaho Falls for Salvadorian comfort food are limited so Ill take what I can get.Everything is cooked when you order it so be prepared to wait for a bit or call ahead. There were probably 3-4 people ahead of me during lunch hour and I waited close to 30 minutes for my food. The gentleman who works the counter isnt overly friendly but I understand that not everyones personality is the same as mine. He was nice enough that I didnt feel uncomfortable.Overall, Sals Pupuseria is a great little spot to grab a bite.

I arrived at around 5:30pm on a Wednesday afternoon. I was the only one there. I ordered three spicy pork tacos and a mulita. The order took about 12-14 minutes to prepare and serve. This means it was going to be fresh. At least I hoped. During my wait, two other customers came through. A girl with purple hair was among them. The tacos were delicious as was the mulita. I really recommend checking this place out.

Tried this place for the first time today and we’ll definitely be back! Pupusas were all handmade to order, the chicken is well seasoned, the quesadillas are well stuffed and the salsa verde is drinkable.

Excellent and authentic Salvadorian food, very tasty. Prices were high for the portions, and they were very slow for a food truck, but I will eat here again, the food was that good

Best carne asada fries in IF. Carne was tender and perfectly seasoned, and the guac and cheese were perfect. Comes with sour cream, we got extra but it wasnt necessary.The papusas were awesome, though one was a little burned. The curtido is mild and fresh. I prefer mine spicy, but this will appeal to everyone.

One of my three orders was correct (I got two plain cheese in place of Revuelto, which is beef, beans, cheese, and pork, and another different orderand they all tasted pretty American. Average price, though, and not a bad flavor.

Great pupusas! Yummy, made fresh and hot. Theyre a nice large size and inexpensive. This is a nice place to go to enjoy some yummy Salvadoran food on a sunny day. The seating area is uncovered though, so watch out for rain!

Get the pork pupusa. SO GOOD. my only regret is that they dont cater. I would serve this at my wedding. Service is good, the food is fresh, and everything is made with love- you can tell by how incredible it all tastes.

I have tried to go a few times lately and its been closed with no sign or notice as to why but the food is great and the prices are more than fair. They have options for every tolerance to spicy food also.

Having been to El Salvador for REAL pupusas I was pleasantly surprised. The pupusas themselves were decent but the curtido was not the best

More of a food truck than a restaurant, but there are picnic benches outside. The food was excellent, though service was a little slow.

This is not Mexican food. It is El Salvadorian food and uses different spices then what Mexican food does. The first few bites us all this is pretty good and then after that it just goes Bland

The pupusas were so good! Be warned, its like ordering at a restaurant, so if you dont have time to wait 15+ minutes for your food, call ahead! The staff was very nice, they answered all of our questions and were very kind. Its hard to find Salvadoran food around here, but theyve nailed it! So tasty. Hope they stick around for a long time.

Delicious! First time having pupusas and from a food truck and they were awesome. I also ordered the steak taco and was very pleased with it. It took a little while to get our food but I was there with a lot of people so it was a big order. Big picnic tables for you to enjoy your food.

Saw my friend Andrew did a review on this and thought I should do it too as they deserve a 5 star, at least for the tacos (did not try any other menu). Shredded beef tacos and tongue tacos are my favorite, and my friends spoke very highly of spicy pork taco. If you are in town and want to try some meal from truck, this is a must try.

The girl taking orders was rude. It doesnt take much to have great customer service but apparently its too difficult for these guys. Food is good, but there are a lot of good food choices here so Ill take my $$$ elsewhere.

This is probably the best taco truck in town. I only get tacos when I come here, so I have not tried their other menu options. Their spicy pork tacos and my favorite, but all of them are good. It is a taco truck so dont expect anything super fancy about the location though.
