This is another review of a popup that I tried as a result of them having been at Trademark Brewing a couple months ago (being one of my favorite local breweries, and a great place to pair beer with all manner of types of food, as their food vendor changes daily.) I will note, the pupusas themselves (that is, the exterior corn-dough part) were a little dry compared to my favorite ones (at our local farmers market), but the pork pupusa had a lot of pork in it, and the pork was pretty tasty, pulled pork-style pork, and not too salty (I feel like that's a fairly common problem with meat pupusas). Tons of great, melty cheese, too. Couldn't really taste the loroco in the loroco pupusa though, mostly just tasted like cheese, so if they were back in the future, I'd definitely go for two meat ones. More flavorful curtido than my favorite farmers market vendor, too (and I like their curtido a lot - Vchos' was even better, though.) Also loved that, for only a quarter more pupusa, you can also add jalapenos, which if you like peppers, I would solidly recommend. I also added a side of plantains for $1.50, which was the perfect amount to accompany the pupusas. Great plantains, too. So, overall, I'd say, while they could've been a little less dry, I *would* definitely pay $11 for that meal again ($9 for two pupusas + adding jalapenos to both + plantains) if I saw them at Trademark again.

I came on Tuesday at 2 pm, and the Vegan Pupusas were not available. They had not done the mix yet, so I left, and I came Friday at 2pm again for Vegan pupusas and the Yuca is not cooked well the lady said it was to hatd....the only thing I have to say if you have a small business and can't be ready, why have a business. Don't get me wrong, I like the pupusas my daughter is vegan, it's hard enough to find Vegan restaurants..... but you must be ready. Yes, I will continue to come

The food is delicious, the only thing I feel is that the prices are higher than in a Salvadoran restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Yes it is a family environment.

I has a mixed experience at Vchos TruckMy family and I recently were at Vchos Truck and ordered a variety of dishes. We were excited to try the Plátano Plate, Beans & Cheese Pupusas (Vegetarian), and Loaded Steak Fries. While our expectations were high, the experience had its ups and downs.Firstly, let me commend the waitress who was handling everything alone. Despite our order being a bit mixed up, we understood the situation and appreciated her efforts. The mix-up wasn't a dealbreaker, as we could see the challenging circumstances she was managing.However, I must say that the Tomato salsa lacked the burst of flavor we were hoping for. It felt a bit lackluster and left us craving more taste to complement our dishes.Moving on to the food, the Plátano Plate was a double-edged sword. While it had a delectable taste, the greasiness was a bit overwhelming. It would have been perfect with a touch less oil, but we still enjoyed the flavors and unique combination.The Beans & Cheese Pupusas were indeed delicious, though a tad on the greasy side as well. The gooey cheese and well-seasoned beans were highlights, but again, the excess grease slightly took away from the experience.Vchos Truck has been a go-to spot for us on numerous occasions, and it's unfortunate that this visit didn't live up to our previous experiences. I still stand by my recommendation, as I believe this place usually delivers tasty and satisfying food. It's worth noting that we'll likely choose a day when there's more than one person working to ensure a smoother dining experience.In conclusion, while our recent visit to Vchos Truck had its flaws, I believe it was an outlier. The potential for a fantastic meal is definitely there, and I'm looking forward to returning on a day when the staff has more support to truly enjoy the delicious offerings this place has to offer.

Pupusas are yummy they cost more than other places but flavor is good and their salsa and curtido are tasty as-well. I also tried a chicken tamal and was pleasantly surprised how yummy it was. I will have to try more of their offerings. Don’t enjoy the courtyard at their location people eating in the general area odd, yuppie but I get food to go so I push thru and parking not ideal so I must like these cause I’ve swung by 3 times since I found this place

Came here for the famous pupusas. It is not an actual trucks this is a very cute courtyard with a few containers, and each containers are occupied by different food vendors. Vchos truck is one of the vendors. Ordered pork, bean, and cheese pupusas, and plantano plate. It took a while for us to get our food, but it is ok because it means that food was freshly made. Plantano was served with sweet creme and beans. It was freshly made and very tasty. The pupusas were a little disappointed as it has a lack of flavor and tasted very blended. Server was very friendly. I will just come back for plantano next time.

I had the vegan revuelta pupusas at the BLVD Market. SO good!! Very tasty, loved the texture and consistency. Portions are good sized too. Will definitely be back! (My husband had the pork and the chicken pupusas and he said those were delicious too.)

Have been wanting to check out Blvd Market ever since they opened. Walked into an open courtyard with lots of tables and umbrellas; there are a few container restaurants. We decided to try a couple of places; I chose this one since I have not had pupusas since the 80s . I ordered the pork and beans, and shrimp, spinach & cheese; this one cost just a lil bit more for the shrimp. Also ordered the Salvatoran chicken empanadas.Firstly I don't remember how big pupusas are and probably vary in size from place to place; but I feel that size they served was generous along with a hefty scoop of pickled cabbage; it fed 3 of us. The pork and bean one was very tasty (no picture because we devoured it and I remembered after we ate it ). The picture I posted is of the shrimp one that we ordered; we ended up taking it home because we were full after eating the empanadas that were on steroids, huge, not typical size; this was very good also; not dried out because the crust shell was not thick like I've had from other places; it's thinner so you could really taste the filling inside; delicious. You get your money's worth. In addition to this food we also ordered a pizza to try, very good also. All this food fed 3 people; will be returning to try other items

I had order to take out at the BLVD MARKET location other times, and didn't have any issues before, this time my loroco and cheese pupusa was BAD! the cheese tastes old or spoiled! I didn't eat it I had to trow it away! Very disappointed I loved this place.I didn't want to go back because I had things to do at home..I don't I will order here anymore.

Loved the location. Food was okay but more expensive than other locations. They only had one type of soda and no other drinks. Pupusas are 3x more expensive than other pupusa places. Honestly will not
