Reviews for El Pollo Gordo in Jersey City, NJ
Reasonable prices, service with a warm smile and low-key vibe! Perfect neighborhood spot for when you crave comfort food. El... Gordo's rotisserie chicken, just off the grill, ticks all the boxes. Ceviche mixto (I usually odrer "picante" version) is reallytasty and fresh. Peruvian desserts (flan, fruit jello etc) with a cup of steaming hot coffee is surely a match made in heaven.OH SO GOOD!

Chicha Morada drink is delicious. It’s perfect. I loved the breaded chicken but I did not care for the green pesto sauce in... the spaghetti dish. The Pescado Saltado is delish.
