Reviewed 22 October 2017

We found this cute little "hole in the wall" restaurant in downtown Staunton on YELP and were thrilled to find that it was as good as the YELP reviews said. They are quite small - 4-5 tables - but they prepare El Salvadorean pupus from scratch while you wait and they are DELICIOUS. At $ 4.50 each or 3 for $12 they are a bargain - they come with a spicy slaw and a sauce. These filled corn tortilla cakes were just excellent - as authentic as it comes!! Gloria also serves her delicious fare via food truck on Saturday mornings (up at the Dayton Farmer's Market on Route 11, I think). This cute little restaurant is definitely worth your visit if you are ever in the Staunton area.

I've stopped here twice and the food is excellent. Gloria is a gem; she and her staff are very friendly. Tiny little restaurant with a great atmosphere.

I drove by Gloria's by accident and remembered her from the Staunton Farmer's Market. That time, I got the pupusa to go and when I had a chance to eat it, it was lukewarm - good, but lukewarm. This time, it went into the restaurant (4 or 5 small tables plus a counter with a few seats - and a couple of small outdoor tables) and ordered the Loca, which is the pork option. I told the nice man taking my order offered to prepare the sauce half mild and half spicy which I thought was very nice. I also ordered a horchata to drink. Im so glad I stopped - the pupusa fresh off the grill was excellent, and the horchata - wonderful. I will definately be back.

Visited at the Staunton Farmers market. We tried a variety of the pupusas. We tried the vegetable, jalapeño and the bean and cheese ones. The service was excellent and the food was very good.

First tried their pupusas at the Staunton saturday farmers market off their food truck. The first time I have ever had this and it is just delicious and filling. Wife and I visited their small restaurant today and it was just a great meal and atmosphere. The owners and workers are all so friendly and cheerful. I have found a new place to eat that makes everything from scratch using veggies and meats from the local farmers. This is a nice little gem you don't want to miss. I will be back for sure. Great food.
