Pupusas (2)
$7Hand-pressed corn masa stuffed with your choice of cheese, chicharron, or loroco. Served with curtido and salsa roja.
From handmade pupusas to hearty platillos, we bring the flavors of El Salvador to Southeast Houston — cooked the way it should be.
El Pulgarcito de America #2 has been feeding Houston families on Scarsdale Blvd for years. Named after El Salvador's beloved nickname, we are a family-run spot where recipes come from home kitchens, not corporate playbooks. You will feel it the moment you walk in.
Our cooks work from scratch every day — grinding masa, stewing meats, and frying plantains until they are exactly right. Whether you grew up eating Salvadoran food or you are trying it for the first time, there is a plate here that will bring you back.
Find us at 12485 Scarsdale Blvd in Houston. Pull up a chair, bring the family, and let us feed you something made with real care.
