Pupuseria y Restaurante Cuscatleco

Food + DrinkAlbany Park · Salvadoran Community-sourced, unverified

📍 3125 W Lawrence Ave, Chicago, IL 60625

Pupuseria y Restaurante Cuscatleco keeps Albany Park's Salvadoran food scene going with the kind of family-run, no-frills setup that pupusas are built for — griddled thick corn cakes stuffed with cheese, beans, pork rind, or some combination of all three, served with the traditional curtido slaw on the side.

Time Out singles out the pupusa mixta as the one to order, and the menu rounds out with hen tamales and plantain fritters that go beyond the single-dish reputation pupuserias sometimes get stuck with.

It's an inexpensive, unpretentious spot a short walk from the Brown Line's Kedzie stop, built for a quick, filling meal rather than a destination dinner.
