“ I can't speak for their menu, but I always go for the same items. Pupusas and baleadas. Can't complain. They are always on point ! ”

“ The pupusas are SO GOOD!! Very filing too! We dined in right after moving into the neighborhood and loved it. Very friendly service! Will be back... I'm a big fan of the bean pupusas! ”

“ Fantastic pupusas! Best in Hampton Roads!!! Plus homemade horchata (not just yucky powder). Can't wait to try the new outpost! ”

“ I stopped in on a whim. I ordered a chicken taco and chicken pupus. This was my first time having pupus, they were good but I preferred the taco . The staff was friendly and welcoming. I'd order the tacos again. ”

“ I found this little gem of a restaurant and figured I'd give it a shot. The pupusas revueltas were delicious. The service was excellent and the experience authentic! I will be going back anytime I'm in the area! I also bought their ground Salvadoran coffee to take home and it was great! ”

“ This is a cute little restaurant that is deceptively busy. There weren't many people here while we were eating, but there was a steady stream of people getting food to go. The food was amazing! I ordered three pupusas (one pork, one chicken, and one chicken with jalapeños). I thought I'd easily be able to finish them...I was wrong lol. It's a lot more food than it seems like it should be. The pupusas were good (the 1.5 that I ate). The chicken was better than the pork in my opinion, but the pork was still tasty. I didn't even get a chance to try the chicken and jalapeño one. The pickled cabbage with salsa (shown in the white dish) is excellent to eat with the pupusas. It adds a pleasant crunch and freshness. I took my leftovers home (hopefully they heat up well). The waiter was gracious enough to give me a new container of the cabbage/salsa mixture too. The horchata was excellent too. It tasted a little different than the horchata I've had at Mexican restaurants. Another nice feature is the menus are in English and Spanish. Overall, this is a great local restaurant. ”

“ I enjoyed my dinner at Lucita's Pupuseria. I ordered 3 pupusas. One was chicken , pork, and cheese. They were all filled with delicious portions. I especially recommend the chicken pupusa. The server was very nice , spoke to me in Spanish the whole time which was fun! I got the horchata to drink and it was tasty. Place was beautifully decorated with traditional El Salvadoran decor. People and staff were happy and I could tell there was a sense of community and family in there which I love! This place is cool! ”

“ I can not rave enough about this wonderful and authentic family run establishment. The food was just phenomenal. If you're unfamiliar with a Pupusa, it's a South American dish served hot; think about it as a soft shell taco-like-pita that's fully enclosed and stuffed with meats, veggies, and/or cheeses of your choosing. The ones served at Lucita's are large and stuffed full; and most of them cost $12 for 3 of your choosing (you can mix and match). I went with the chicken, the pork, and the spinach pupusas for takeout, and 15 minutes after picking them up and I bit into my first one, they were still piping hot and served alongside a very light vinegar (?) slaw and a small cup of a very spicy hot sauce I was unfamiliar with but loved. All three pupusas weee bursting with distinctly different savory flavors. The interior of the restaurant is clean and full of memorabilia from El Salvador- flags, paintings, and art - and wonderful people and families enjoying a meal. The staff was friendly, bilingual, and really wonderful people with whom to interact, practice my Spanish with (thanks for being so gracious!) and relatively quick getting such delicious and made to order food. I can't wait to go back! ”
