El Sabor Salvadoreno Restaurant — Restaurant in Red Bank

Good El Salvadorian food. We ordered to go for dinner tonight. We started with 3 pupusas. We had the pork and cheese, jalapeño and cheese, and beans and cheese. They were good except for the jalapeño and cheese which tasted old. The other 2 were fresh. The pupusas came with salsa and a cabbage slaw - very good. For the main dishes we ordered Costillas de res asada and the fried filet. The ribs had good flavor but one was overcooked. The salsa was not as fresh as we would have liked. The fried filet had good flavor but the shrimp were over cooked and a tasted rubbery. They forgot to put dressing on my salad and the beans were just ok. The rice was the star and delicious. The price was reasonable for the amount of food. I would come back again...

We just stopped in tonight to pick up dinner because we heard positive things about it on Nooga Today. We got the sushi, guacamole and chips and a chicken empanada. The sushi was tasty as was the guacamole. We are so full we couldn’t get to the empanada but I assume it’ll be as good as the rest of our meal. The gentleman who took our order was very sweet and service was fast and delivered with a smile. The dining area wasn’t fancy but clean with bright colors.

We will definitely be coming back! I’m only sorry we didn’t come...

I was surprised by how good the food was here! Usually I’m very, very skeptical of any places that calls themselves Salvadorean and sells pupusas, because I only trust one place to make actually good, authentic, high quality pupusas and that place is in Brooklyn. HOWEVER- this place in Jersey is coming in at a very close second place. Their curtido is AMAZING and their sauce feels authentic. Their pupusas are filled to the brim and the taste is excellent. And not only that but super affordable. Will be...
