The ambiance absolute perfection!! I highly recommend!!“

“This is a hidden jewel. We were spending the night at a nearby airport hotel looking for dinner. We found this and took a chance. It is in the middle of a neighborhood, but don't be fooled this a a Tapas Bar treat. Food, Service, and Drinks were fantastic!“

“Antojao never misses 🔥 The food was fresh, packed with flavor, and the portions were great. The Tres Golpe Pernil Sandwich was incredible — the perfect mix of savory and sweet. Definitely one of my favorite spots in Jersey City!“

“Food was so good, and plated beautifully. The appetizer sampler is top tier, but be careful because it's really filling. I didn't finish my entree because I got so full on the apps, lol. Great service. It's BYOB and they have a lot of nice mocktails to mix with or just to drink by themselves.“

“I was happy with the service and the food. However , we were 5 adults and 3 children and the bill was $8oo. We did not consume a lot of liquor. The appetizers and entrees were delicious but the prices were way too high;. For the family to go out to enjoy a good meal is becomes impossible to do with those prices.“

They were delicious! I bought chicken, beef and cheese! They’re affordable too! Gracias! 🙏🏽 I’ll be buying from here again.“

“We recently held a family reunion at El Mesón Español, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, taking the time to explain the menu and answer all of our questions. The food was outstanding—every dish was cooked to perfection. We especially enjoyed the paella, oxtail, veal, and ribs—each one full of rich, authentic. Highly recommended!“

“This restaurant is clean. The waiters and waitress are kind the prices are reasonable but best of all the food is great. The lobster in not over cooked and taste delicious. The rice is not hard scorched or burned. My best friend and I enjoyed our food and the serving was so good and well proportioned that we took food home. The atmosphere was fantastic“

“Excelente servicio al cliente las chicas de la entrada te reciben con mucho amor , es un ambiente familiar , de verdad espectacular“

“Our table of 4 loved everything from start to finish. My chorizos were the best I’ve ever eaten (including Spain). Dinner companion Eileen orders the shrimp in green sauce every time and is in heaven. Husband Phil’s vegetarian paella and portobello mushroom appetizer were delicious as were the table’s side dishes of green beans and carrots (perfectly cooked) and potato chips (yum). Massive entrees of which we all took portions home to enjoy as leftovers. Expert service by real waiters who knew everything and met our every dining need.“

“Great find for some authentic Ecuadorian cuisine!“

“Shout out to Ricky's for being the last restaurant in the neighborhood to keep it real on food quality, price, and portion size.

I'd been scoping out Ricky's for a few weeks, after I noticed it by accident while walking by.

Wonderful and delicious home kitchen Puerto Rican dishes. I have no idea why this place doesn't have a line out the door all day everyday...probably because of its humble unassuming appearance.

Right now with the price gouging at restaurants and inflation, it's Exhausting going out to eat when you look at the bill.

It felt so good to sit down and have a plate if delicious homecooked food with a bottle of soda for $9.75!

Picture below is PR stew chicken w/rice and beans. Definitely will be back soon!“

“Wow. Just went to this place. It was delicious. Nice people and service. Clean. I had the Colombian eggs with Chicharron and rice. Sooooo good!!! I’ll be back.“

“I've eaten there a few times, the first time in 1988 and the place has always been great. Highlyrecommended Arroz con camarones.“

“Amazing service and food, absolutely delicious!!“

“"This Cuban food restaurant offers excellent value for money. The staff is friendly and attentive. However, a small limitation is that they do not accept card payments, which may be inconvenient for some customers. Overall, the experience is wonderful, but due to this limitation, I give it 4 stars."⭐️“

“The place opens at 8am as shown on maps. The decor and atmosphere is very family friendly and cozy. Took my mom to eat and truly enjoyed the meal the restaurant offers variety of foods and delicious ingredients and it's the best place to consider to eat“

“I had the garlic chicken.Really good, but that’s beside the point. Service is extremely bad. Especially the wait time. 1/10. Waiter has a weird attitude, for no reason. Not even a hi or hello, just checked in once the whole time. Wait time felt like hours. Honestly, food is delicious but the waiter was dry and it honestly offended me. Anyway, not recommended.“

“(Translated by Google) the food was so delicious and the waiters are the most friendly people in the whole world. thanks for a good nightfollow @wydbrenda on instagram(Original)la comida fue tan deliciosa y los camareros son las personas mas simpaticas en todo el mundo. gracias por una buena nochesigue @wydbrenda en instagram“

“Everything we tried was delicious. Well seasoned and cooked just right. The only issue is that there isn't a menu to look at the items and we ordered a mofongo and it was served with cheese. One of the members in our group cannot have dairy. That would be an important piece of information to share when the order is placed.“

“Decided to try this restaurant after seeing the photos of the food on Google, and I’m so happy I did! The food was like homemade and so delicious! The women working there were very friendly and welcoming. I had stewed chicken, beans and yellow rice. I left satisfied!“

“They have a friendly and quick staff, they know the menu very well and so far made two great suggestions that I really enjoyed. Beat Bolon we had so far in the planting to cheese and meat ratio. Hoping they Jazz it up in the future and add a cheese sauce like their competitors who don’t have that great ratio just mentioned.“

“The pupusas are the best in Elizabeth and the rest of the food is delicious.“

“The lady and her husband are extremely nice. I go here almost everyday. There's a board that shows the menu if you're new and she'll be sure to point you to the second board nearby (Grilled/fried food). There IS an ATM inside the store as they only accept cash. The food is extremely good too, thumbs up for them!“
