50 Best Latin American Restaurants near Fairfield

“Authentic Dominican food, you get a lot of food for the value, and the staff is lovely and very helpful. There is a big selection of food options. We liked everything we had, I especially liked the avocado salad.

They have all the available food on display, cafeteria style, but they serve at the tables and the food is hot when it arrives. They have plenty of tables and free parking in front.“

“I can't give a full review because it was my 1st time visiting the establishment. I can give a review of what I ordered & of the person that served me. Everything looked & smelled good. The person who served me was kind & friendly. I had the picadillo with white rice, sweet plantains, a fried yuca fritter, & a side of beans. It all was very tasty, with the exception of the fritter. My only qualm was the pricing for what I ordered. It came to $29, including 2 bags of cheese doodles.Would I go back... Yes. Everything looked vibrant & fresh... I wanted to try EVERYTHING.“

“I went here two weeks ago, very good food, I enjoyed my steak a lot, but there are couple things that I will point out, the music definitely must be more loud, you could barely hear anything it created the weird atmosphere since I could hear all what others around me are talking about, second thing they should inform you that the food will take a while go get ready, it definitely was worth it but just the server should be aware to inform us that it will be an hour wait for the food, also you can bring your own bottle of wine which is great!“

“Great food, great service!“

“Our meal was DELICIOUS! Scallop appetizer followed by entrees of halibut, bronzino and orata. Wonderful service made for a beautiful evening“

“I don’t usually write reviews, but this place truly deserves it.

From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was vibrant, warm, and full of life—it instantly brought me back to Colombia. The energy, the music, the vibe… everything felt authentic and welcoming.

The food was absolutely incredible. This isn’t just your typical spot—it’s a true gastrobar experience, with delicious Colombian flavors elevated in such a creative and flavorful way. Every dish was packed with taste, perfectly balanced, and clearly made with care. You can tell there’s passion behind the menu.

And the service? Top-tier. Mauricio, our server, was amazing—attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. It’s rare to find service that genuinely stands out like that.

Overall, I loved everything about this place. If you’re looking for a spot that brings together great atmosphere, incredible food, and outstanding service, this is it. I’ll definitely be back—and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a true taste of Colombia with a modern twist. 🇨🇴✨“

“The decor at this morsel of Costa Rican culture is aesthetically pleasing and if you’re in the area, this is one of the better Tico spots. We watched Costa Rica beat Paraguay in a Copa America game while eating pupusas, un Casado and Tacos Ticos and totally hit the spot. Especially since they served some salsa Lizano on the side.“

“buena atención y menú bariado“

“Recommended NEW latín restaurant in Paterson.... keep going guys !!!“

“My wife and myself were at Latin American Restaurant in Boonton, NJ. We are from out of town looking for home cooking, let me tell you, this was the most delicious food we've had since we've been here. The restaurant is clean and the owner stayed and talked to us for a long while. I had the steak smothered with onions, salad, white rice, black beans and maduros(sweet plantains). You get large portions, my wife took her left overs to the hotel for later. My wife is a very picky eater and she loved everything that was served. The staff was great and we felt very comfortable taking our time with our dinner. We surely will be back before we go home and will recommend this restaurant to our friends and family.“

The rice side dish was really flavorful. It was late and we were the only ones there but the space was super welcoming and the server was so kind and helpful. Trying to route future trips to Philly via Parsippany NJ :-)“

The food was absolutely delicious - the owner, Diana took the time to share the make-up of each dish; so many lovely flavours and wholesome ingredients. The atmosphere was also lovely. Warm, fresh and stylish. I am from Australia and I am so glad I chose to eat here. Grant“

“It was my first time trying a chimi sandwich and I was impressed it is basically a Dominican burger with coleslaw. The chimi is well seasoned and toasted to perfection. The chicharron Mofongo was really bad however. It was dry and greasy. I really liked the chimi but the Mofongo is not good at all.“
