Seydi’s Pupuseria and Grill Phoenix AZ – Crazy Great Pupusas – Worth a Fork!

Seydi’s Pupuseria and Grill is a little casual Salvadorian restaurant located in North Phoenix Arizona. They specialize in serving these crazy delicious Salvadorian stuffed flatbreads called pupusas. Prices are low! Portions are large! Pupusas are crazy delicious!

All the pupusas are stuffed with cheese and some contain a vegetable, wild flower, or meat. They offer TWELVE different kinds so there is something for everyone. (plain cheese, bean, wildflower, jalapeño, zucchini, spinach, green pepper, pork, chicken, steak, shrimp)

They are really cheesy inside. You really are suppose to eat them with your hands. But if you use a knife and fork it’s up to you.

You eat the pupusas with Salvadoran slaw and rojo sauce. The slaw is very unique. It’s fermented but isn’t sour like sauerkraut. It’s also not strong tasting like kimchi. It’s just really good and cuts the fat to make it pop. The red sauce is thin but it has a sort of salsa taste. It’s all very delicious on the pupusa.

Besides pupusas…..They also offer breakfast like fried plantains with rice and beans, an egg and sausage burrito with rice, beans, and jalapeños. Or maybe you are a little hungrier and want a ten ounce New York Steak with eggs home fries and toast.

They offer appetizers like yucca fries with pork, Salvadorian Cole slaw, and tomato sauce, Salvadoran chicken sandwich (yes on the appetizer menu), This one other appetizer can feed a family…..It’s a chicken tamal, yucca fries and pork, Salvadorian pie, one papusa, Salvadoran slaw, and tomato sauce.

They offer combination plates that include two tortillas. A few of them are-…………grilled steak with two pupusas,

They offer two soups. One is farm hen vegetable and the other is beef stew with rice. Both come with tortillas.

The farm hen vegetable soup contains maybe half a small bone-in skin-on chicken with all kinds of vegetables (zucchini, potato, carrot, maybe cassava?, cabbage, and peas). It also comes with hand made tortillas, vegetable studded white rice, lime, and a small condiment of chopped onions, cilantro with jalapeños to give the soup some punch. It’s also a very large portion.

Or you can just order pupusas…..and if you can fit it in they also offer two desserts. One is plantain empanadas and the other is cassava and honey.

It’s not a fancy place but it seems clean.

You order and pay at the counter and then you seat yourself.
