Pupusería El Águila - San Jose

I just had a meal at this restaurant, and I feel nauseous. The place was unclean and had a strange odor. The atmosphere left much to be desired, as there were several different songs playing all at once. The food was unimpressive—greasy and undercooked—and even the glass of water was unappealing.

The food is decent, not exceptional, but if you're hungry, it will do the trick.

The pupusas were enormous—definitely the largest I've ever seen. I ordered one with zucchini and one with pork, but both were filled with about 90% beans, and I could hardly taste the pork. We also ordered two mixed plates that included two pupusas, rice, beans, and plantains, along with three cookies, which came to a total of $37. The rice was just plain garlic rice with some veggies, and the beans were pureed black beans.

This charming little spot seems to have an exciting nightlife. I stopped by to grab some pupusas for lunch and noticed it has a stage and party lights. It looks like they have a mostly stocked bar and serve drinks in the evening. So, it's a restaurant by day and a party venue by night.

It was okay... I ordered a few pupusas to go. I was informed that the order would take about 10 minutes, but it actually took 25 minutes.
