The business was sold, ordered food today and the place was closed. The owner was walking to the door at the same time and said he sold the business to call the bank and ask for my money back. Why would the website still be up ?

Gem. A small place that you would pass by.... But don't. Go in for lunch. They make fantastic sandwiches. I had a Cuban sandwich with ribs. It was spectacular.

We are a Cuban family and very critical of most Cuban cuisine, BUT LET ME TELL YOU how AMAZING Bodeguita’s food is! We ordered a traditional Noche Buena meal from them and my family couldn’t stop eating and talking about how delicious the food was. The pernil was great and the Moro (congri) was my favorite and reminded me of my aunt’s recipe. For dessert, we had the flan and tres leche and it was yet again a crowd pleaser. Gracias Bodeguita for making it a memorable Christmas Eve. We will be ordering again and again and again. Compliment to the Chefs! ????????

This is outstanding Cuban cuisine. I have ordered 3 times from Bodeguita Deli and the food is amazing each and every time. Mind you we have ordered different food each time. This is an owner operated business and the service is fantastic. We ordered a Christmas Eve meal for my family and everyone loved it. We will be ordering exclusively from Bodeguita Deli for our catering needs.

The Cuban sandwich might as well have been directly shipped from Cuba itself. Very authentic and truly the best you’ll find around. The owner couple is lovely to talk to as well.

What a wonderful place to eat!First off, the owners there are so kind and amazing that it is hard to believe the business has been open for 3 years and still treat new customers with such kindness. What the store lacks in presentation it makes up for in quality of food.Best cuban sandwich I have had so far, if they made the pickles deli thin sliced, it would be the perfect cuban sandwich in all of NJ. Amazing amount of mustard, cheese and juicy pernil that honestly blew me away. The pollo gizado was so soft, juicy and flavorful, it complimented the soft black rice perfectly, along with the freshly cooked tostones that were crunchy yet soft enough to eat (perfect balance of textures). I cannot WAIT to go back and have some more meals there.

A Flavorful Journey to Cuba on a Plate!Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)If you're on the hunt for an unforgettable culinary adventure, look no further than the Cuban sandwich at Bodeguita Deli. This delightful creation is a masterpiece that takes your taste buds on a captivating journey to the heart of Cuba, all within the confines of two perfectly toasted slices of bread.From the moment the plate arrived, I was greeted by a mouthwatering aroma that hinted at the explosion of flavors awaiting me. The presentation was impeccable, showcasing layers of succulent ingredients thoughtfully assembled into a harmonious ensemble. The first bite was a revelation – a symphony of textures and tastes that paid homage to the rich Cuban culinary heritage.The star of the show was undoubtedly the slow-roasted, tender pork. Its melt-in-your-mouth perfection was a testament to the chef's dedication to authenticity and quality. The ham provided a delightful salty contrast, while the Swiss cheese added a creamy richness that tied everything together. But what truly elevated this sandwich to greatness were the pickles and mustard. The pickles offered a zesty, tangy punch that cut through the richness of the meats and cheese, creating a balance that was both refreshing and satisfying. The mustard provided a subtle kick, enhancing every bite without overwhelming the palate.The bread, a crucial element often overlooked, was a revelation in itself. Perfectly pressed and toasted, it was a golden embrace that held the treasure trove of flavors within. Crispy on the outside, yet delightfully soft on the inside, the bread complemented the fillings without stealing their spotlight.The attention to detail in this Cuban sandwich was truly commendable. The generous portions of fillings ensured that each bite was an explosion of flavors, while the careful layering showcased the craftsmanship behind its creation. The sandwich wasn't just a dish; it was a narrative – a story of a culture, a history, and a passion for culinary excellence.The experience at Bodeguita Deli was nothing short of exceptional. The ambiance, the service, and, of course, the Cuban sandwich itself, all came together to create a dining experience that left a lasting impression. As a food enthusiast, I've had my fair share of sandwiches, but this Cuban creation has secured a special place in my heart (and stomach!).In a world filled with culinary options, the Cuban sandwich at Bodeguita Deli stands out as a shining example of what happens when ingredients are treated with respect and creativity. Whether you're a devoted foodie or simply someone looking for an incredible meal, I wholeheartedly recommend embarking on this delectable journey to Cuba through the artistry of Bodeguita Deli's Cuban sandwich. Your taste buds will thank you!
