Rosa’s Pupuseria - Collinsville

NEVER ANSWER THE PHONE! But as soon as you get there they're just standing around with the phones ringing SMH

The pupusas here are really good. Service was great too! Will definitely be coming back.

So this place used to have some of the best Pupusas in town, but the last couple of times I've noticed that their Pupusas have been pretty empty inside meaning that seems to me lately the cheese and meat they put inside have been getting lighter and lighter each time...

Large proportions, DELICIOUS, seasoned food. Affordable prices. Good service. There's plenty of seating and is suitable for large groups to dine in. They also offer takeout. Parking is limited and fill up quickly. Also support a small business and bring cash ;)FOOD:Papusa Revuelta (4.5/5): The chicharrón was shredded small and evenly applied throughout. The ratio was about 1:1 chicharrón to cheese. The flavor, ahhhh the flavor was soooo good. Personally, I would have preferred my papusa to be toasted and filled more. As another reviewer mentioned, the papusas don't taste as good when it sits, so eat then while they're hot. I can't comment on the curtido bc I don't like curtido. Almost all the papusas were $2.50 each. Sopa de Mariscos con Crema (5/5): This soup has bluecrab, fish, imitation crab, shrimp, mussels and vegetables. We got it with cream the crushed red pepper on the side. I was expecting small chunks of fish and a crab claw. Nah, y'all getting a whole experience! There was a whole filet of fish, lots of shrimp, and half of a bluecrab. This soup was so good and filling! Filete Pescado con Camarones (5/5): The breading on the shrimp and fish was well seasoned. The shoe string fries were fresh and crunchy. I've never had Salvadoran rice but I prefer it over the regular Spanish it's lighter and fluffy.

They seem to have taken over new owners but the food is still delicious they do need to work on answering their phones. I always order ahead.
