When I had my Hyundai car serviced, I had asked is there a good spot to eat “they immediately say there’s a cafe here” I turn around and I see this! For something inside an auto mall out of all places I’m surprised with the welcome environment and loved the food! Definitely would recommend the Papusas and really any menu item, it’s very affordable and the food is made with a lot of care, I would recommend coming back even if you aren’t here for a service on your car as the food and service is top knotch! 🙏🏽 hope the business grows with blessings

This place is 10 out of 10. Went to my first maintenance appointment in this location and I had an empty stomach. I was told that it could take up to 2.5 hours for my car to be ready. I was already thinking about getting a Uber and coming back later but then they told me that there was a restaurant upstairs. This place is so clean and the service was amazing. The food was perfect. Now I know where to go when I bring my car for maintenance. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This place is an absolute hidden gem. The front door is literally located between 2 service bay doors at Sansone Toyota. Don't let the hard to find and unusual location sway you, the journey of discovery is just part of the fun. Once through the door, you take the stairs up to a beautifully maintained cafe oasis. We were going for breakfast and left sad that we had no room left to stay all day and enjoy the lunch buffet. They have a beautiful open kitchen concept where you can see all the fresh food being prepared. The breakfast was excellent with wonderful fresh ingredients and satisfying portion sizes. Don't miss the pupusas, a house specialty. The owner, Rosa, is as sweet as can be and runs the restaurant with various family members. We were staying at the nearby Fairfield Inn

Even after living here so long, NJ remains full of surprises. Rosa's is a spot that feels impossible - in between two doors at the Toyota service center, they're serving food that tops most diners I've been to. It almost feels like it shouldn't exist. Love that, Thank you for the great eats! I'll be back!

Sansone Toyota upped the wait for your car service game with this cafe! It’s over the service station and I don’t understand why they don’t advertise it more. Its Clean, spacious and the service is great They have Good coffee, pastries and they have Pupusas!!!!! They also have breakfast, burgers, pizza and sandwiches. Yummy! Don’t spend your time bored in the service wait room. Go to Rosa’s cafe while you wait for your car. You can thank me later!
