ABOUT Las Chelas Taqueria y Pupuseria

Las Chelas Taqueria y Pupuseria is proud to be a Salvadoran restaurant in Houston, TX, where tradition and flavor come together with every bite. Since opening in January 2023, our family-owned and operated restaurant has dedicated itself to sharing authentic Salvadoran food with the community we love. For over two years in business, we have been honored to serve our guests meals that are freshly prepared the moment they are ordered, with recipes that carry the warmth of home. One of the dishes our guests always return for is our handmade pupusas, crafted with care using in-house tortillas that are naturally gluten-free. Each bite reflects the rich culinary heritage of El Salvador, making this dish a true staple of our menu. Alongside our pupusas, we prepare flavorful tamales, savory chicharron, and hearty burritos that bring together the best of Latin flavors. For those who enjoy a variety of tastes in one meal, our parrillada mixta is the perfect choice, offering a combination of grilled favorites cooked fresh and seasoned to perfection.

Sweet and comforting options are also part of our tradition. We serve empanadas de leche, a classic Salvadoran treat with rich flavor, as well as crispy, golden churros that pair perfectly with our refreshing horchata drinks. For dessert, many of our guests enjoy our soft and rich quesadilla salvadoreña, a traditional Salvadoran sweet cheese bread that captures the essence of home-style baking. At Las Chelas Taqueria y Pupuseria, every dish is made with love and care because food is not just about eating—it is about sharing moments and creating memories. We are a very small business, family-owned and operated, and we take pride in preparing each plate as if we were serving our own family. The Houston community has embraced us with incredible support, and we are deeply grateful to every customer who chooses to dine with us. If you are searching for fresh flavors, authentic Salvadoran cuisine, and a place where tradition is honored, Las Chelas Taqueria y Pupuseria is ready to serve you.
