First time trying pupusas, now I'm a fan. Not only was the service quick but the food was hot and portions were worth the money!

Another wonderful meal at Sofia's. We had pupusas and tamales and rice and beans. Service was nice and friendly. As always.

The pupusas here are amazing, nice variety of drinks, outside tables nice in good weather

We love Sofia's Pupuseria. My brother, my nephews and I go at least once a week, they live in Arlington and I come in all the way from DC, the food is delicious and service kind and friendly. My favorite place!

A local spot serving high-quality fishes with fresh ingredients! I ordered the fish fillet with salad and grilled veggies which was delicious and came with two homemade tortillas. We also ordered a side of fried plantains which were so good! Food took a little while to cook but was well worth the wait.

It look good but not te flavor was not there the place is very busy Music is too loud and makes people talk louder too busy

A great family owned restaurant. The food was really delicious, with the steak being very flavorfully marinated. Their pico de gallo was excellent as well. The chicken tamale was not what I was expecting, but very good nonetheless. We'll definitely be back for the pupusitas which we didn't get this time around. The service was quick and friendly and they brought it to us at our table. The restaurant itself is fairly large with about seating for 20-ish. We arrived early Saturday morning and it filled up quickly. Definitely a must try for folks in the D.C. area.

This place is always one of my favorite places to come to in Arlington. They're located next to a 24 hour laundromat so anytime I do laundry I'll pop in a buy myself 2-3 pupusas with an horchata. It's my go-to! But their salchipapa is also really yummy as well! I look forward to trying more items soon since they're super close to me. The service is always kind and it's always pretty busy in their for the most part. It's pretty big for enough folks to sit down and they have Hispanic music playing which is a plus. You see friends and family having lunch and dinner together here deep in conversation. A family staple here in Arlington for sure!

If you ask any El Salvadoran from the DMV, they will tell you to go somewhere else (haha). But I personally like this place and it's one of the first places I've ever had a Pupusa! While the pork pupusa is a little greasy, the chicken pupusa a little bland, the cheese one is PERFECTION. Grilled attractively with the cheese having that beautiful, brown char; I fell in love as I pulled it apart completely in awe as the cheese stretched into my mouth. THAT'S what I think of if I'm craving a Pupusa. This may not be "the best" in the DMV, but I don't care, I'll always swing by here for my Cheese Pupusa!
