I've been looking for a good pupusa spot in the area. Finally came across this place and boy oh boy, the pupusas revueltas are amazing. 10/10

I usually order for delivery. But decided to dine in this time. The food served here hits on a certain level. Their Chicken soup has medicinal properties to it. You could make your own version at home for sure, or find something similar at any other resto but... The food reaches out to my soul and i am not even Hispanic/Latino! All things aside, one of my favorite spots in the neighborhood.

I really enjoyed the pupusas here. I got the bean and cheese, jalapeño and cheese, and wildflower and cheese. They were clearly made to order, the char was spectacular... the fillings were all quite good, although I wish there was some more spices in the actual filling. Not too big of a deal though, as the acidic slaw and spicy hot sauce helped make up the flavor and then some! They're super busy, so expect to wait, but I'd come back for sure.

Came for the pupusas and was not disappointed. Such large pupusas that I struggled to finish but fear not, I managed to eat them all! Got the loroco, jalapeño, and frijoles. Their curtido was good enough to eat by itself! Portions are huge too. I'll be back and bringing my friends!

Decided to try the fried porgy this time! I always get the crema de mariscos and it's definitely a fave! My husband stuck with his usual while I tried this culinary delight!

Delicious papusas at a great price. The corn cake had a great texture and the filling was spiced well and generous.

Pupusas!! It's difficult to find pupusas in Manhattan. This place was the easiest to reach from Manhattan for pupusas. They have tons of variety of pupusas... the curtido is great. The cabbage in one little bowl and the sauce on another. Perfect. They came out hot. They didn't taste like they came from a market. Rather, they tasted home-made. Soft and slightly crunchy. Plenty of flavor. They are quite big too. The filling is plentiful as well. At $3 each, it's a great lunch. Service was good. The timing was about right. The place also looks nice. It's a bit like a saloon. Lots of wood. Very comfortable. I will come again.

I find people tend to either hate or love pupusas, but if you do enjoy them, Bahia's rendition will certainly satisfy you. I had worked up an appetite so had the opportunity to try 3 varieties, including one with loroco, one with zucchini, and one with beans and cheese. As usual, the loroco - that elusive flower which I have never encountered other than on a pupusa menu - was the definite winner, especially when drowned in a combo of the mild salsa and curtido (a bit like coleslaw) served alongside. We also shared the plantains which came paired with a decadent cream that really made this appetizer fantastic.

The weather was in the high 70s today. My commute from Queens to Brooklyn was an hour and 40 minutes. Bahia Restaurant was within walking distance from the Grand Street subway station. Luckily, I made a reservation yesterday. I met up with my date for an early dinner before my metalcore show tonight. Drinks Limonada - refreshingly delicious Tamarindo - sweet and tangy Food *sharing is caring* Pupusas Locas - One pupusa stuffed with everything. This was my favorite pupusa. Revueltas - delicious Ayote y Queso - delicious Side Orders Yuca Frita - crispy and yummy Chicharrón de Pollo - The fried chicken was too dried. I am not a fan. Bookmark this spot to try!

I was exploring the area and stumbled upon this little gem! I've never had Salvadorian before and this place seems like a local mom and pop shop. There is plenty of seating on the inside and we did not have to wait to be seated. The woman who served us was extremely friendly and let us know that the back of the menu has explanations of the main dishes. I got a chicken and cheese pupusa, the horchata and an el campesino. The pupusa was delicious! We were told pupusas are to Salvadorians what tacos are to Mexicans and what hamburgers are to Americans. They come served with pickled veggies and a tomato sauce - it was delicious! They also had a nice crisp to them. Next time I'm back I will have to try the other flavors. The campesino steak was a little salty, but I think for the portion it is definitely worth it. I took leftovers home and ate it for lunch the next day and it was still good. The horchata also was great too, super flavorful and you could taste all the spices.
