Located at 291 Central Avenue, El Gordo will specialize in pollo a la brasa (rotisserrie chicken), ceviches, and other Peruvian cuisine. The restaurant originally started in Passaic and Paterson; however, this will be its first Jersey City-based location.

The New York Times calls this passage “the last extant remnant of the original World Trade Center.” —NYT
