“I can’t really speak to the service or atmosphere because I have only ordered for delivery. However I must say that this is the best food in the area, I have been trying different restaurants over the past year and everywhere in the area gives mediocre or comes up short. I can confidently say that the food here is really good! It is definitely a must try.“

“Quick food service, Beef stew was amazing with white rice. The place was not packed when I went, but as I was halfway with my meal it was starting to get packed. Good prices, great food.

Parking: It a hit and miss being it's on the main avenue of the shopping district. But don't let that deter you from going and enjoying a great homemade style meal.“

“Great food the young lady that takes my order on the phone a nice person always gets it right when it's delivered it's delivered with great presentation the salad looks fabulous it tastes wonderful but everything that you order they show a nice presentation the amount is very generous the prices are really great but more than anything else these are DR people true DR are cooking the taste fabulous. I'm puerto rican but the Dominican food is a little different than the puerto rican food but it brings home memories of PR and DR when I used to go visit on vacation now I'm an old lady I don't travel much but going to this restaurant brings back great memories if you have the time pass by you won't waste your time or your money it's a great place God-bless all“

“I went tonight for ny first time. I ordered the cinnamon rice pudding and the flavors of the dessert instantly brought me back to my childhood. The lemon peel in the dessert was what my aunt from Puerto Rico added when she made this dessert. The staff are kind and welcoming.“

“Hey I have to tell you about this fantastic Dominican food place in Jersey City. Seriously, it's one of the best. Been there a bunch for lunch, they don't skimp on the portions. The ladies running it super sweet too. Definitely worth dropping by when you get a chance. The food and music will totally win you over, promise.“

“Their food is so fresh and delicious. Their customer service is very polite and friendly. I remember I left out the restaurant and got in my car and my sister dropped her whole tray of food in my car and I went back in and told the Cashier and she insisted on helping me clean out my entire front seat and helped me get all of the food out of my car. Then, if that wasn't kind enough, she then proceeded to give my sister a whole free new platter on the house. She was so humble and it reminded me that there are really great people still left in this world. She gave me hope of a new tomorrow with just that one kind gesture. I mean she cleaned out my entire car where the food fell all in my seats and on the floor. I will never have one bad thing to say about this restaurant. The food is absolutely delicious and it's the reason I started going here instead of Karina's. Food can taste great, but great service + great food is the ultimate goal. Thank you so much El Sabor Cafe !!! I will always choose you over Karina's. Even though I've gone to Karina's since I was 16.“

“A spectacular 5-star mofongo, there are some things that are not as good but generally very delicious. The environment is deceiving, the worker is super good. The wait time for food can vary but usually does not take more than 10-15. A fairly inexpensive place, since 40 dollars can eat two people including two sodas and dessert, but of course that depends on what your order is. Thank you for reading my review, have a good afternoon/night/day🫶🏼“

“I have been going to Karina's for many years and their food is delicious. The only problem I have is them being stingy when I ask for a little more rice. I spend $35 plus at every visit there. Otherwise, they are one of the top Spanish eating restaurants in Jersey City.“

“I loved grilled chicken as it was very well cooked, juicy and just right amount of seasoning, not too greasy. Perfectly fit to my palate. So I might be willing to go for chicken again.

However, pork mofongo was painfully salty. I think mofongo itself was very well executed with garlic flavor in its mashed plaintain, but the pork meat mixed inside seemed to be the faulty one for overwhelmingly salty flavor. I don’t think I would be willing to take anything that is pork related from this restaurant, even if it were ever provided to me free.

It was one of those unsual experiences where I loved one menu so much but hated the other menu so bad at the same time.“

“Being from Paterson, it’s very easy for me to tell if a Dominican food joint is authentic. This place is definitely authentic Dominican food. Love their res guisada. I make sure to order from here from my job at least once or twice a week as I work in an adjacent office. The owner is very nice. Great find in Journal Square.“

“Been coming here for years after I was introduced to it back in 2018. The food is amazing!!!! If you want real authentic cooking, this is the place. The selection is delicious. You'll want to try everything. The atmosphere is inviting and the owner is so sweet and friendly. Highly recommend this place.“
