Twenty years of cooking with heart
Cuscatlan has been the taste of El Salvador in downtown Escondido since 2004. Come for the pupusas, stay for the warmth.
Family-run, fresh every day
We've been cooking authentic Salvadoran food in Escondido since 2004. Everything is made fresh so every bite tastes like home.
Pupusas, handmade your way
Over 15 fillings, from classic revueltas to camarón con queso. Griddled fresh, every order. People drive from all over North County for these.

What our guests are saying
Excellent food. A bit more sauce/liquid than we expected, but that's more me not knowing the cuisine, I think. Great variety.

We were walking by looking for a place that served breakfast all day. We had never had El Salvadoran food before but gave it a shot. It ended up being delicious, will definitely be back

Best Salvadorian food I suggest eating the tamales that they made with the banana leaves is so delicious. Everything actually is delicious. I usually come here because my GF is Salvadorian and she loves this as well.

We enjoyed a very tasty and affordable lunch.We tried the chicken and the pork pupusas and a sweet corn tamale, they were all delicious.
