Salvadoran Restaurants near Jersey City, NJ

“Reminds you of a restaurant in the old country. The food if fantastic though so don't let it fool you. It is a combination of two cultures. Mexican and Salvadorian. Both very good food sources and both blend well together. I have brought many friends to try out from different backgrounds and they keep asking to go back.“

Fantastic prices as well!
You can order off the menu or buffet style.
Homemade pickled vegetables were excellent! Everything else we got was good too!! The fresh the mango was the perfect ending to a delicious lunch!“

“Delicious guacamole, the tortillas were delicious, the pupusas were also very good, the steak was the best, the burrito was fabulous, the chicharrones were everyone's favorite. 10/10 experience would come again. The waiter was so sweet and helpful. The food was so authentic and delicious and reminded us of the food we ate in our hometowns in Guatemala!“

“This place is super cozy and one of the best kept secrets on Elizabeth Avenue, serving Salvadorian food for the last 20 years. The buffet is really delicious with fresh ingredients that are replenished throughout the day. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The Pupusas and homemade spicy coleslaw are their specialty but the soups and other menu items are to die for. This is a true hidden gem and one that is a must for those culture seekers looking for true authentic meal, as if you traveled to Central America. Ask for Fatima, the owner, and she can walk you through the menu choices.

Parking: Street parking is pretty easy to find a meter in the area that is safe to park and walk from car.

Kid-friendliness: Great kids menu.

Wheelchair accessibility: It is accessible.“

“A great spot to eat and enjoy“

“great pupusas delicious shakes“

“I can't say it is beautifully decorated but food is good and serviced always super friendly. My go to is Pupusa ( is like a corn and flour tortilla with cheese) you can order them with pork, orioco( some kind off flower), and just cheese. They have good soups and juices. Unfortunately coffee can be better. They have limited parking (parking around there is not easy).“

He came back home super happy that he got exactly what he wanted, the quality and flavor were amazing. The music was really good! Lots of salsa and merengue, as I left they started doing karaoke. The waitress we had seemed like she was new and did not know much in regards to the menu but we all have to start somewhere, she was very nice. We will be back again for date night !“

“Excelente atención , económico, su comida su rico“

“I haven’t had pupusas since I went to El Salvador a few months ago, so I was extremely happy when I stumbled upon this place. The pupusas were crispy but still soft and the filling was so delicious! I will definitely be coming back!“

“La comida 🥘 es muy deliciosa“

“Excellent service, my 4 years old daughter is very hard to Please, i when to different places to see if they can do my daughter’s cake and the answer was: I can try my best, not exactly but I can do it, and answers like that, i was not feeling comfortable about it, when I contact sweet Alicia, she just answer my question saying, “it’s going to be more beautiful than the picture”, she was right, my daughter’s reaction was a happy face, and she cannot believed that her cake was exactly the way she want it and it was delicious, I definitely recommend their services.“

“The pupusas are the best in Elizabeth and the rest of the food is delicious.“

“Good food Great service always friendly clean and have a good time every visit“

“I’m from Newark I did a purchase of DoorDash. My order was a beef soup and hot chocolate everything was great and nothing was cold ingredients seemed very fresh very satisfied!! I don’t even leave reviews lol very good I will be ordering again!“

“The space has visual appeal without being distracting. Every other dish was good too, with spices I rarely try. The staff shows remarkable customer assistance. The neighborhood conceals this quality. I readily endorse staff who deliver like this.“

“I ordered pupusas for the school I work for, since we were celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month. The way they pack and organize my order was amazing. The pupusas are so big that I was able to cut them in half and everyone was able to eat. The students and staff were satisfied, some first time eating pupusas and some already had try them before and they all said it was delicious. Thank you so much 3 Nopales!!!“
