I love to get pupusas to go from this place! They are always delicious and I love that they give lots of curtido, so yummy. Sorry the curtido is not in my photo, it came on the side:)

Delivery was quick, prices were decent.Cheap is not always better. Pususas were small, under cooked, and barely stuffed with anything. Curtido is not authentic and didn’t even get any salsa for the pupusas. No bueno, mejor vayan a Chepe’s!

Chips were very old, salsa was very watery.Tried something simple, terrible. No flavor, just very sad.So pitiful! I actually went home and threw up!

I had lunch at Los Pepitos Locos yesterday because I had noticed this taqueria several times. It has a good sized parking lot which was really nice since 42nd is such a busy street so I had intended on street parking originally. The dining room is big and nicely decorated. The menu has a wide variety of items to choose from including American breakfasts, salads, Centro American and Mexican dishes. Super tasty fresh salsa and chips. We ordered several dishes; the vegetarian plate, the chile rellano burrito and a chicken taco plate. The dishes were all excellent and seasoned well. The portions are generous. The Chile rellano burrito was the best one I’ve had yet. The vegetarian plate was plentiful with fried cabbage, broccoli and zucchini served with refried beans - it was so tasty and the veggies were seasoned perfectly with salt and black pepper. The chicken taco plate was tasty and I used the salsa verde on those tacos. Super tasty very fresh ingredients at this restaurant I’ll definitely be back soon!Update 8/26/23 Went in for a meal today. Same high quality and big portions. Delicious food and excellent service! We ordered a chile rellano plate and a chile rellano burrito. Both were scrumptious!Vegetarian options: The vegetarian plate is so good! Fresh veggies seasoned perfectly with refried beans.I highly also recommend the chili rellano burrito.Parking: Several parking spots in lot good sized lot. Street parking too.

The salsa has no flavor or spice. Got the steak burrito and the meat looks like it’s boiled, has no seasoning. The salsa I ordered with chips is chips from a grocery store tortilla chip bag and watery, bland salsa. The rice, beans and flan are good.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian burritos

Delicious food, big portions and excellent service! Highly recommend this taqueria. I’ve had the Chile rellano burrito, veggie plate and chicken taco plate. All were delicious. They also have a small parking lot which is really nice considering how busy the street is.

the salsa is watery and not very spicy. The chicken mole Rojo wasn't bad. I will revisit because the hospitality was genuine.Parking: this is a neighborhood, so parking is limited.

This place is so underrated! Been coming here for years, never disappointed. The produce is very fresh. Only authentic mexican place Ive found that uses fresh and flavorful ingredients. Seems like most hope you will use lots of hot sauce and not notice. Plantain burrito is unbeatable! Service is always friendly. Spicy margarita hits the spot. I love thwie classic salsa. Ambiance is a little stale- indoor seating could use an upgrade, hard metal seats just not comfortable. Cant fault the place otherwise.

Delicious food. It's been on my radar for a bit as I've noticed this restaurant when I've driven by. Best chili rellano burrito I've ever had. My family had a vegetarian plate (I tasted it) it was so fresh, cooked to perfection and delicious. Beautifully seasoned. We also ordered a chicken taco plate. The chicken meat wasn't heavily seasoned but it was a generous portion and was very satisfying. The salsas are really good too. Chips and salsa are served if you eat there. Large dining room and a parking lot. Good service. I highly recommend. Fresh food, generous portions and very tasty meals.
