Great service and atmosphere! 100% satisfied.“

“Great spot! Feels like a hidden gem- no fuss, very reasonable prices, great quality, good assortment of pastries and beverages, gentle music, clean bathroom, and clearly a local favorite based on the customers we saw there. The staff also pays great attention to detail and are so friendly and kind.“

“I loveeee this protein shop! I’ve been to many protein places in the area, as well as out of state, and this is my favorite protein shake shop in NJ. The shakes are so delicious! I also love that they’re open at night to curb my nighttime snacking after my workout 😁 The owner, Maya, is amazing. Her customer service is top tier every time I visit after my workouts. Her warm smile, attentiveness, and genuine want to make her customers happy make me continue to choose her shop over any in NJ. I will definitely recommend this place to friends/family!“

“Found this place last minute, and I wanted pupusas. It was a little warm but otherwise really cute decorations. The food was DELICIOUS!! we got pupusas, baleadas, montukas, and fresh drinks. Mom loved the montukas said it reminded her when she was a kid.
Only issue is parking but not the places fault.
Definitely will come back!!“

“kind of long wait for food But it was Very GoodThis large space is clean , lots of seating for parties. Bathrooms are clean & for customer only. Ask for key at cashier. Nice open view of Elizabeth Avenue. If you plan to visit on weekends, be early because it gets very busy

Vegetarian options: They offer fruit & basic salads, but anything on requests.

Dietary restrictions: They usually don't cook food with salt or pepper. The waitresses will get for you on requests.

Wheelchair accessibility: There's a ramp to the door, but people are always willing to help you get in if you're by yourself. ?“

“Really fantastic and beyond compare Ecuadorian bakery and restaurant found off Broad St. in Elizabeth. Delicious, humble, home-cooked daily specials, empanadas, and bread stemming from Ambato.“

“Visiting my hometown over the weekend, and searching for a place to have breakfast. Found it online and they had breakfast sandwiches that I had not have in a very long time. The sandwiches were such a generous size and they were extremely delicious!! Great little place. Wish I was closer“

“Cute and inviting atmosphere, and the workers are very considerate! The bacon egg and cheese sandwich was delicious. The caramel latte was a little too sweet, however it could’ve been us since we didn’t modify the coffee order. I would come here again the next time I’m in the area!“

“If you want to taste authentic Peruvian food this is your to go place. 100% recommended!! My family and I constantly go but today we had Chupe de Camarones (it was amazing), saltado de pescado and pescado a lo macho. Everything was perfect but the Chupe was on point. We even order another one for later! . Great service and we even got to know the cook named “ El mono”, nice and friendly. Very clean and great environment.“
