Authentic Salvadorean pupusas. Don Carlos was very friendly. Only thing I would take out is the red cabbage off the curtido. Salvadorean tomato sauce is on point!
UPDATE: Carlito's will make their vegetarian burritos dairy free! I love this place, but my daughter is sensitive to milk products, so I asked on a whim if he could do it and they are quite delicious! I, of course, still order the normal huge burrito, but I will still gladly finish even the dairy free burritos.
Carlito's Pupuseria embodies everything I look for when eating out. They are local, friendly folks that hand make everything and charge you a fair price for it.
I'm a vegetarian, so I opt for their vegetarian burrito every time I go ($6 gets a HUGE burrito), and in my opinion it is the best burrito in town. Now I don't claim to have eaten everywhere (my food budget is rather tight), but getting a massive tortilla full of beans, rice, lettuce, cheese, onions, and cilantro for $5 is simply amazing!
And now I'm second guessing my decision to write this review while hungry...
But back to the point, they do have a covered section if you want to hang out and eat at the truck, or even if you are swinging by to pick something up while it is raining, you don't have to wait in your car. They also have salsas, utensils, and napkins, so really everything you would need to be able to eat there.
Great place, I recommend them every chance I get.
Update: I recently got a burrito from Carlito's to go and thought I'd share some evidence to support my statement of getting a 'huge' burrito from them. Check out the photos! The burrito is just over 8 inches long and weighs in at 25oz on my postal scale.
Still my favorite burrito.
Excellent food! Don't miss this. We were very happy with the vegetarian options and the pupusas were fresh and delicious. This place is a new favorite.
Hands down best food around! If I could give more stars I would! Don't ever have to worry about getting something gross. It is ALL good! 10/10 would recommend!
I had a chicken burrito: moist and tender meat, fresh chopped tomato and onion, and yummy homemade beans. As big as my arm. Couldn't finish it! My companions had an assortment of pupusas which were equally delicious and more easily dispatched. Good assortment of Mexican juices and sodas. The food took a while to prepare because it was all made to order. Good food, great value ! We ate at one of the two tables by the truck.
I will miss this place so much when I move away from Eugene! Pupusas are fantastic (i always get the vegetarian), service is always friendly, very reasonable prices.
Literally every single thing we got was delicious. Friendly and fast service, reasonable prices, delicious food.
A must try for the area! Great food, authentic, and served by the nicest man! I called to order ahead, my family’s meals were ready by time I rolled up! Make sure to order a couple extra pupusas, you’re gonna want a second helping AND leftovers. Support your local pupuseria!!
