About Rubamba Restaurant

Rubamba Restaurant, nestled in the heart of downtown New Haven, serves authentic Latin American cuisine with generous portions and flavorful dishes. Their menu features a variety of options, including standout birria tacos packed with juicy, flavorful beef, Arepas from Venezuela and Colombia, burritos, and tacos. The presentation is lovely, and the service is excellent. Customers have praised the phenomenal burrito, bursting with delicious, fresh ingredients and served with house-made salsa roja. The restaurant offers mocktails, soda, juice, horchata, and Jamaica (red hibiscus tea), but no alcohol. The Colombian arepa, especially the pancho, is noted to be more decked out and delicious than the Venezuelan one. The burritos are a daily special on Wednesdays, and the vegetarian option with portobello is a highlight. With mid-to-high pricing, the food is worth the cost. While the atmosphere is small, it is very clean and has fun music, making for a cute space. Takeout is recommended due to limited seating, and the restaurant also has many gluten-free options for those with dietary restrictions. Whether dining in or ordering delivery, Rubamba delivers a delicious and authentic Latin American meal.

This is my first time trying Columbian food and I am hooked!!!!! The AL Pastor Columbian style Arepas is by far one of the most delicious things I have had in a long time. The cornbread base was sweet without being cloying and mixed with the pork and pineapple, OH MY GOD! My dish came with a side of some of the most flavorful rice I have ever had and it was topped with some sweet plantains. The serving is more than generous. I'm a big girl and I am easily getting 2 meals out of...read full review
