Spanish Restaurants near Carteret, NJ

“Large portions of good food. Technically Portuguese, but there's something for everyone. Great sangria. It was quiet tonight, so service was spot on, but we've been on busy nights, and service was good then, too.

Parking: This place is located in a residential neighborhood. The parking lot is small so you will likely have to park in front of someone"s house. All parking is free“

“I go around 6 30ish, always fresh food being brought out, long lines cuz food is so good and honestly can't beat the prices!!!

“We had the pleasure of dining for the first time at Due 360 in Summit. From the moment we walked in, Luis the manager and Brianna welcomed us and seated us promptly. Luis was very attentive and made sure we were happy with our order. Our server Sofia was extraordinary! she was warm and friendly with genuine smile. She offered excellent recommendations and we had conversation as if we're know each other for years. We started with a complimentary bruschetta, it was tasty and nicely flavored. I ordered the Tapas- Polpo Ala Plancha, Steak Yuca Frities and Crabmeat/shrimp tacos. Everything was fresh and bursting with flavor. The portion was perfect and the presentation was impeccable. Due 360 was quite a gem of an Argentine-Italian restaurant (interesting combo but it worked!). This place is going to be my "go to" dining spot. I highly recommend it and the experience is worth it.“

“Las Esperanza’s Restaurant serves delicious and well prepared Dominican food. I like to order the baked chicken with rice and beans. Sometimes I order a side of yuca (cassava) as an additional side. This makes for a good hearty lunch under 10 dollars.
The service is quick, I generally order to go to be able to eat at Liberty park or at my desk at work.“

“Tequila Bistro Hosted One Incredible Night for Team Ed Rodriguez We recently held a meet-and-greet for Assembly candidate Ed Rodriguez at Tequila Bistro in Elizabeth—and let’s just say, Ed raved about the food beforehand, and he wasn’t wrong. From the moment we stepped into the warm, inviting space—with its glowing string lights, rich Spanish tiles, and that cozy outdoor patio—it was clear this was more than just a restaurant. It was an experience. The crowd came for conversation, but the Mediterranean and Spanish flavors stole the show. From the perfectly grilled seafood to the paella that had people going back for seconds (and thirds), every bite was unforgettable. The crab-stuffed salmon? Game-changer. And then there’s the bar—a destination in itself. Sophisticated, generous, and buzzing with good energy. The sangria flowed, the handcrafted cocktails were on point, and the vibes matched the moment. The staff made us feel like family. They handled a busy room full of guests with warmth, precision, and genuine hospitality.“

“Very good atmosphere. The food is phenomenal and the beer is ice cold . Highly recommend this place for anyone who is trying to have a good time. The hostess was very welcoming and willing to help. The music choice is very good brings good energy to the establishment.“

“Outstanding food !!! My wife and I just visited and were very impressed . We started off with tostadas tingas which was really good. The chicken was well seasoned and topped with fresh guacamole, lettuce queso fresco and beans , all of which were full of flavor and excellent. For our tacos we had the carne asada tacos and the Baja fish tacos , I usually dont go for fried fish but I tried theirs and they were excellent so much so my wife who isn't really a big seafood eater swapped with me , the fish tacos were not greasy at all which was great and the batter was fluffy and the freshly made corn tortillas made both tacos perfection , the carne asada tacos were also amazing the steak was cooked perfectly and again a lot of great flavor . We originally weren't going to have dessert but we could not pass up flan and tiramasu tres leche , the flan im sure you've guessed by now was amazing perfectly creamy with a great syrup on top and the tres leches tiramasu was top notch . Since coming back from Texas I didn't think I'd find a place that can make great tacos but this place definitely does . Looking forward to my next visit . If you love tacos and Mexican food in general do give them a try , excellent staff , service and food!!!“

“Is a traditional latino spot,to eat good,dominican specialties.“

“Best coffee in Bayonne! I'm a big fan of Cafe 26. The service is always excellent, the ladies at the register are always very kind and again the coffee, I thoroughly enjoy. This comes from a coffee enthusiast. Try anything, I'm sure it'll be great! I've tried multiple drinks, none disappoint. My fave (right now lol) cafe con leche, delicious!“

“One of the best, authentic Mexican restaurants in the area. Also has the best prices. The ingredients taste fresh and they cook everything to order. Plus they aren’t stingy with the meat/ cheese/ lettuce etc. The gentleman that made my food today (not sure if owner) was really friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!“
