La Guanaquita

I went there for lunch after seeing it had opened a few weeks back. While construction was still going on they had signs that read «pupuseria». I looked it up and a Pupusa is a Salvadoran dish that is basically a South American pizza pocket. It is a hand made tortilla that is stuffed with cheese and your choice of meat for $ 2.50 each. I ordered one of those, but not knowing how large it might be I ordered a burrito as well for $ 6.00. The Pupusa ended up being enough though. I clinched the order with a Mexican coke for $ 1.00.
Now the review. Everything here seems homemade which gives it a thumbs up. The Pupusa was good but nothing earth shattering. The burrito was decent but again I’ve had better. To keep this in perspective though I used to live with the owners of a taco business in Portland, so I’m fairly spoiled. Keeping that in mind, this place is good and shouldn’t be avoided by any means. Try it out, if for no other reason than how many times have you had Salvadoran food in Hillsboro instead of strictly Mexican?
