Pupusas Ridgewood

The menu pairs Salvadoran pupusas with Mexican tacos and quesadillas. The pupusas are made from fresh, gluten-free masa, containing cheese by default unless you request otherwise. Fillings range from chicken mole and chicharrón to spinach, cactus, and squash blossoms, though the meat options tend to carry more distinct flavor than the milder vegetarian fillings. Beyond the griddle, there are daily specials, house drinks, and desserts like a horchata-flavored corn cookie. Inside, there is no indoor seating, just a small counter where the staff help explain the menu.
