When I lived in CO, I would come here all the time for lunch. I no longer live in CO, but always make a point to come to Golden to get my favorite meal from here when I visit. THE BEST. So so delicious. I dream about these papusas!! And the rice is so good, and the chipotle sauce is to die for. Also one of the mango juice drinks. Highly recommend!

I wish I could rate this place more! I got a pork pupusos and it was top tier. It comes with some sort of salsa and creme sauce. Neither are spicy, both are delicious. I ate outside and had a lovely view of the mountains. I also had a passion fruit juice which was so good and fresh. For dessert I opted to grab a papaya candy they were selling at the register.... Sweet but not too sweet. I would go here again if I'm ever in the area.

Great small mom and pop restaurant. Came across this location while walking downtown Golden and the puposas were definitely the best part. Nice consistency with the dough, cheese and filling of choice. The hortcha was a plus, a great cold sweet drink.
