Pupusería & Taquería Mercy

This place has authentic El Salvadoran papusas. When I went in I tried the bean and cheese, the mix (bean and cheese and pork) and my personal favorite, the chicken and cheese with the curtido and salsa on top. But everything I tried in this El Salvadoran restaurant was great! I highly recommend this place to everyone who wants real papusas. Plus the drinks are good too. Also the prices are easy on the pocket. I will be getting my papusas from here for now on!

Ordered rice, beans, chicken and corn tamales and they were all delicious! Will be placing an order for Christmas. Good price for great food. Will return soon!

I love this place! Best pupusas I've ever ate! I will only go here, tried another place once and it didn't come close.

One of the smaller places you could go, 'La Senora' (the owner/operator of this restaurant) is always very kind and her food is consistently good comfort food. We have been going back here, often for takeout, for almost 25 years...and we still go back even after moving more than an hour away.

Cash only!!
It’s the best Salvadoran food with the exception of my mom’s cooking. We drive from Marin for pupusas revueltas (cheese and pork). The yucca is perfectly fried and we order it with chicharron, fried pork. The pork is a bit salty but so good we order extra.
They really take pride in preparing good food.

Great place. Finally found one I really like. Great food. I came from another city just to get these. Will be back for more. Authentic 100%!

My family has been coming here for more than 2 decades, three generations. It is the best pupusa. We moved to Vacaville and still make the trip to get our favorite pupusa. 😍

Fantastic food and the friendliest service. I look forward to becoming a regular!

A staple to Vallejo and one of the best authentic Salvadoran food you can find. From the pupusas to their desserts and their fresh drink’s definitely amazing

This is the best mom and pop pupuseria in Vallejo! Open since 1991.

FUN FACT: If you look closely, you'll realize that this place is right across the boxing gym used in the Netflix series, "13 reasons why".

But just a heads up, before coming here just know IT IS A CASH ONLY STORE. Be prepared, I came with $40 but only ended up spending $10. Not so bad for 2 pupusas that stuffed me (mind you I had an empty stomach). There is not much parking, they only offer street parking which is limited.

Walking in you order & then sit down. The inside looks a bit run down, the area where you dine in has displays that look like they haven't been cleaned in awhile, the color scheme seems like I walked into an episode of "I love Lucy" or "pleasantville", but I suppose the adds to the charm of it. The seat I sat by was located right next to the screen door that they leave locked. It was like a movie. The heat from the outdoor creeped into the seating area as the lady walked my order over. I imagined a low rider outside & the voices outside linger in. And in the background, I could hear the grill in the kitchen sizzling.

The pupusas were so good. I had planned on eating 5 pupusas but forgot how filling the dish would be. I did not even have a drink to accompany the food. I enjoyed the empty store and took time to look at the artifacts inside the building. I left more than satisfied.

It was the best Pupusa I've ever had. And I used to drive 45 miles to get them from another place. Flavorful. Generously portioned. Amazing salsa. And the tamales. Never had one in banana leaf. Excellent flavor. And the mask is well seasoned. My new favorite food place.

Moving from a Salvodorean home in LA back to the bay, I hoped to find pupusas and Salvodorean horchata de morro in Vallejo. The pupusas were delicious and although they didn't have horchata prepared, they carry the mix which was great. I really loved the curtido and the salsa as well. My dad tried the pupusa de Pollo con queso for the first time and loved it. I am vegetarian and liked that the lady separated my nonmeat pupusas from the ones with chicken. Great first impression 👍🏼 😀 will definitely tell everyone about this pupusería ♡

Soooo good! I love a good pupusas with the proper meat to cheese ratio. This restaurant did not disappoint. Not only are the pupusas flavorful but the slaw and red sauce explodes in your mouth. If you're in the area it's a must!

Food was delicious! The pupusas were made perfectly w/ some burn cheese around the edge. The salsa & curtido was full of flavor. Riguas were pretty good too! It was my first time trying atol de elote and I loved it! They have a very big menu and everything sounds so good, I'll have to come again soon to try their other menu items.

A taste of El Salvador nestled in the wonder that is the north bay. A hidden gem. Lots of Salvadoran and Mexican food restaurants, but not many with Nicaraguan food on their menu.
I had plantains and Pupusa and Nacatamal. Generous portions and tasty and has the authentic tastes I grew to love. Just one pupusa can fill you up and not take a hit on your wallet. The Pupusa was fresh off the grill, It came out sizzling hot and the flavor was outstanding. They're handmade to order, crispy on the edges, soft in the center and bursting with flavor and best of all for 3 dollars each. The side coleslaw was also great and tasted awesome! Mouthwatering deliciousness with great vegetarian options. They have plenty of El Salvadorian, Nicaraguan and Mexican specialties.
Kudos for the tomato sauce (special sauce for pupusas) it was so good. Food is great and not expensive. Food taste like your moma cook it. Homemade style Nicaraguan food. If you like real Nicaraguan food this is the place, Excellent cacao. And the nacatamales are to die for.
While I loved the netflix show 13 Reasons Why, I'm actually annoyed that their small scene here gained this place more traction. Selfishly I wanted this to be my secret. However I'm very happy for the owners because their food is amazing and they deserve more customers.
Wide variety of choices on the menu, most of it looked good.
Restaurant was clean and everyone working in the kitchen was wearing face masks and face shields and gloves, the lady taking our order was quite friendly, attentive but not annoyingly so. Will definitely go back; lots more dishes we want to try.
Who doesn't like Nicaraguense food? Super helpful and happy people serving some yummy food.
I recently had their chicken tamal and it was soooo good. Sometimes with Salvi tamales they get a little too mushy, but these are nice ratio of soft. The chicken is cooked perfectly. Also, their beans are really friggin good. I don't know how beans can taste that good lol.
If you visit this place be prepared for a short wait. Everything was hand made and prepared as it should be! The restaurant itself is small and take out only, but damn was the food good!
Thank you for a pleasant experience. When we are back in the area, we will stop by again.

DELICIOUS!!! Authentic! Great customer service very friendly. The owner was very nice and took some time out to chat with his customer and I appreciate that! This establishment deserves all good that comes their way. Honest and hard working serving up quality food with a smile! In times like these we need more places like this! 11/10

Damn. Just... damn. This place is a gem (cash only). We got chicharron con queso. Fattest, most tender pupusas we've found in the Bay Area. Absolutely packed with tasty pork and cheese, griddled to crispy brown perfection. Curtido is a little more sour and tender than many others we've had and cuts the grease nicely. We scarfed our pupusas while standing around our car, so we didn't get to try the red sauce. Owner was super friendly and seemed to appreciate that we actually knew what curtido was. There's an attached convenience market with Salvadoran stuff. Only con is parking can be a challenge. So glad we get to visit Vallejo regularly. We will be coming back for more.

Found this place by chance while in the area over the weekend and I am so glad I did! Was really happy about the vegetarian (and even vegan!) options available, and everything was delicious. The prices are outstanding and the staff was really nice. Will be back on the regular to get my pupusa fix!!

Yes it’s been a long time coming and well over due.. I feel so guilty not leaving an honest review because I come here so much. My favorite is the pork and cheese oh my god to die for. I visit almost 2 a week and the family owned establishment is about as authentic as you can get. I recommend if you like great authentic El Salvadoran cuisine then visit here you won’t regret it.
