Philadelphia’s Best Puerto Rican Restaurants - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"El Sabor is kind of elusive—there’s no physical menu and they don’t keep consistent hours, so you really should call ahead or drive by if you’re looking to dine in or takeout. But it’s so good you’ll find yourself peering around the corner of Diamond and North Hancock streets hoping they’re open. If you’re hungry and in a hurry, grab and go from the hot food case; try the chuleta or crispy fried chicken leg, yellow rice, and whatever you do, DO NOT forget a side of white rice and habichuelas. If you have time to dine in, order the bistec encebollado. On your way out, pay homage to some of Puerto Rico’s finest: headshots of Marc Anthony, Tito Puente, and Jennifer Lopez cover the back of the restaurant." - carolyn rivera, candis mclean
