I always get the roast pork with yellow rice and beans. I love the alcapurrias. The chicken soup is delicious. Sometimes if they have it, I get the pupusas. Everything I've ever ordered here has been delicious. It's tastes home cooked, and fresh. It's too bad I live a couple hours away, or I'd be here every week. It's a very casual place.

El Saborosa is my favorite restaurant in Jersey City! I’ve been coming here for years and the food is always consistently delicious. The flavors are authentic, the portions are generous, and the staff is always friendly. It’s truly a hidden gem I recommend to everyone.

The food in this restaurant used to be great. This was when they moved from a very cramped location to the current address. Then it all started to go downhill. The original people who made it great are no longer there and those who replaced them are terrible. Not only is the food very sub par but it’s also way overpriced. Sad to see such a one time great restaurant turn into something I refuse to go to. Sad.

I've been coming here for the last 15 years. Absolutely amazing food! There's nothing like. And the staff are wonderful. Would highly recommend for any occasion!
This restaurant has the kind of comfort that keeps you coming back. I didn't think I'd enjoy this place so thoroughly. The kitchen chooses good ingredients with satisfying serving sizes. Not exaggerating, these workers are outstanding, remarkably friendly, knowledgeable and make you feel at home right away. I'm eager to go back and explore new offerings.

Decided to visit my mom in J C New jersey with the family. Googled restaurants near me. Chosed this location cause I have been here before, like 2 years ago, but never made a review. Food was very good 👍, ordered the shredded beef came with side of rice and beans.Steak and onions with sides of rice and fries 🍟.Some beef and chicken empanadas.

Well, it was our first time eating here. There was nothing on the tables. We never got offered a glass of water. The server forgot to bring the sugar for our coffee.
They truly fell off. They jacked up the prices and made the portions way smaller and the quality of the food now truly sucks!
