50 Best Latin American Restaurants near Hoboken

“Since the most rated diners were like a 30 minute walk from Hoboken’s train station I would definitely recommend this place if you need something quick and nearby. I love Hispanic food, but this food was perfect! I got their breakfast French toast and my sister got their pancakes. I swear these typical sweet/bread type breakfast foods are not my thing yet the way they made them tasted so different and flavorful, for me this was unique. There Cuban empanadas are very savory, especially with the sauces they provide. My only critique is that lemonade, as it’s very bitter bc it had lime and it’s not sweet at all. The lemonade is $7.30 with card, and my meal was $9.99. Our server was very sweet, I would recommend coming here to have sweet/savory options met here. Also to me breakfast here is very affordable because with me and my sisters (3 people) our bill came to $56 with card, so most places in Hoboken are pricey but this place can offer what you need at an affordable price.“

“A big shout out to my best latin place in Hoboken: Chango Kitchen. Traditional yummy latin dishes. Our faves are churrasco con chimichurri (skirt steakgrilled) and ropa vieja (shredded beef). My kids loved "alfajores with dulce de leche", "tres leches" and hot chocolate with when it's cold outside. Service is warm and friendly. We can visit the place multiple times and never get tired. #supportlocal“

“I’ve been coming here for about 6 years, always on point, service, food and environment. My daughters and even the Vegan daughter have no complaints. Visit and enjoy all they have to offer“

“Recently went and although the food and waiter staff were great, we were expecting what we seen on here. There was no performances. An empty space. Apparently there's a 2 hr gap between brunch and dinner. The booking site allowed for a 4pm reservation. When we arrived we were accommodated but looked at funny. We found out that brunch had ended at 3pm. I was really hoping for the full experience I seen here and paid alot and didn't get it.“

“I ride hard for this restaurant because not only is the food delicious and well priced, but it is one of increasingly few restaurants in the area (or even the city...) where you can sit down at 10:30 or 11:00pm and have a full meal without being rushed. This has become a vestige of old New York because people have started eating so early since covid. Drives me crazy. Thank god for Tabare. It's also super cozy and dark, great for small groups or a date.“

“Un ambiente super divertido y familiar 🗽🍾🇺🇸🎆“

“great people and music. if you want a quiet place , stay home 🏡“

“It’s because of Brahim, the incredible food, drinks, and ambiance that I’m happy to give five stars. Even though my friend and I waited 15 minutes before we finally flagged a server to come to our table, it was so quickly made up by Brahim’s service, charm, and attention. Clearly there must have been a miscommunication regarding who was servicing our table because once Brahim took over, we had our food in drinks in a matter of a few MINUTES! Not to mention, kindness, charm, and attentiveness. It’s such a vibe with the tropical decor, and the food was so delicious. I will be coming back!“

“Excelente sazón y CONSISTENCIA en la misma quizás uno de los mejores restaurantes de comida ecuatoriana en los últimos 3 años en la ciudad de New York . Lugar muy limpio, espacioso , baños impecables, amplio estacionamiento y el sabor de la comida es realmente auténtico , lo único q podría mejorar es la atención un poco caótica y desorganizada pero en general todos los meseros son amables, vayan por ahí no se arrepentirán!“

“Best experience ever, the food was prepared from a chef that loves cooking and knows how Peruvian food has to taste.

The waitress was attentive, polite, friendly and managed our order very well.

The place was clean and welcoming.

We came by recommendation also from their social media page that posted about this place.

We drove around an hour and a half to this wonderful place and we will definitely coming back.“

“The food was very flavorful and delicious!“

“I’ve been following Titi’s for a while now and finally made my way to the store let me tell you it was so worth driving through traffic.

I ordered the oxtail ( so good make sure you use the juice )

I also ordered the chicken and cheese ( use the hot sauce) so good 10/10

I also ordered the cuben sandwich so good I wanted another one

Last thing I got was the cheesecake and guava I wish I would had ordered two.

This is a great place to visit the staff is friendly and welcoming I’ll be back for more.“

“Highly recommend Molkajete Restaurant and Bar. Nicely decorated, this Latin American cuisine restaurant has a very inviting, family friendly atmosphere. The food is delicious, and the service is exceptional. I've dined here two times and am very happy with my choice on both occasions. They offer catering as well.“

“I enjoy tasting empanadas from all types of places. Empanada Mama is by far the best of any place I’ve ever tasted!! The portions were stunning, the food was full of flavor, the menu is large, and the dessert empanadas are just as amazing as the savory ones! Definitely some comfort food right here ❤️ Amazing delivery as well“

“One of my favorite places now to eat Latino food now in NYC!!!! Visited mast week and had the Frito Mixto and ate every single yuca they had!!! Everything tasted fresh and hand made. Also got the rice and beans with the black pepper beef and chicharrón. My favorite was the black pepper beef. Was so soft and tender. The chicharrón was good but had a lot of fat (chicharrón always has fat lol) for me. The parts of meat were actually really good. For drinks we got the Pandan and it was delicious. Definitely one of the best drinks I’ve had in a while. Will surely pass and eat at this place if around!!! Btw they had Karaoke too if interested!“

“fantastic food, but horrible service. AND they force an 18% gratuity on all parties“

“Good food excellent service .Great job Juan Carlos“

“An amazing place yo share with your loves one and have a good talk and share a delicious bottle of wine, food it’s amaze ! Really tasty and flavorful l, 10/10“

“the rotisserie chicken is grestrice a peas nice my favorite spot 😋“

“This is my favorite place in the entire neighborhood! The service is wonderful, it’s small and intimate, feels like a real gem. It’s got a relaxed non-pretentious atmosphere. I come here on a whim OFTEN. Their signature drink Canelazo is the BEST cocktail i think i’ve ever tasted from anywhere, I crave it frequently, there’s just nothing like it. It’s unique and sexy, ugh, this place is a HIT HIT HIT.“

“Hoy primera ves conocimos el restaurante y sali muy contenta de allí, sintiéndome como en mi país, y más con la atención de la chica,muy amable e amorosa 100% recomendable..“

“Always a pleasure ordering from here. Food is deliciously well seasoned and cooked. From tender meats to variety of foods for the picky ones; all fresh! The portions are extremely generous and fairly priced. The lunch size foods can feed up to three people. Excellent choice for those that don’t wanna cook, feed the fam and have some food to take for next day. I always recommend this place 🔥“

“Great food and drinks Great atmosphere. Professional staff.“

“Food is super fresh and the owner is so nice and you can tell he takes pride in his food. Never had baliada before Mi Sabor and definitely a fan!“

“Highly Recommended!! Especially for large parties! Went with a group of 20. We had the back room all to ourselves!! Which included our own bathroom and backyard space! It felt like a private party as we were able to get up and mingle with one another without bothering other diners. The food was excellent and the service was even better !!! Thank you for everything ISHMEL !!!“

“Excelente ambiente, comida, happy hour 12-7 pm cheap drinks and appetizers“

“Endroit magnifique, décoré avec beaucoup de goût ! Les plats sont aussi beaux que bons, une cuisine travaillée et raffinée.. Le personnel accueillant et très professionnel ! Nous recommandons largement ! Allez-y les yeux fermés et les papilles ouvertes! 🌺“

“We always enjoy the food and drinks here. Luisa was a great waitress and we had a nice time there. The chicken champignon (mushroom sauce) was delicious and loaded with mushrooms. Great classic margaritas for under $10 with lunch. ❤️“

“I threw a sweet 16 party for my daughter this weekend at this Restaurant and it was Amazing from the event planner Natasha for Agenda to the servers everyone was so very helpful Especially Chef Wilmer he was amazing through the whole process to me planning my event there to the day it was time to put everything together he was very helpful and his food was absolutely Amazing!! I wish I took pictures but it was gone to fast everyone was so patient and they were very accommodating Thank you Agenda!! For your Amazing service! And your tasty Amazing Food!!!“

“the staff :kelvin, haydee and wendy, the servers, the chef, the music, the food and drinks are beyond your imagination 👌 great music that relax your mind and soul...that place is CanaveNYC!! 100% Recommended, the atmosphere it's beyond AMAZING 👏, I highly recommend CanaveNYC.“

“I would've given it 5 Stars because we had a great time with the fabulous DJ spins. Fun! I had arroz con pollo which was very good and had the coconut flan which did not taste the coconut and want as good as I would think. We had an issue with the waitresses way of attending the table. Not friendly at all and tried to charge us $16 for a drink that stayed $14 on the menu. I thought it was an error until she said that drink has 4 liquors,. I explained that it didn't matter if there were 10 liquors in the drink, when your menu states differently that's what you charge. Hope the manager or owner has a talk with her to be friendlier. Also no coffee which is weird being that it's Latin.“

“The vibe is electric. Great drinks, food & staff. Fun place to watch the game. I'll be back.“

“Great spot for lunch to dinner. Kind of a all-day, everyday spot. Serving from noon till late night. Great comfort Latin American cuisine. Full service restaurant and bar.“

“Everything was delicious!!! Strong drinks, delicious food and amazing service! I had the mofongo de camarones and when I tell you it was to die for! To the point that I came home and couldn’t stop talking about it and a week later and I am still mentioning it.“

“Great atmosphere and service!!“

“Delicioso todo muy buena atenciones“

“After seeing so many this place on socials I decided to give it a try. Hard to believe somewhere has happy hr during the week until 8 pm. I’ve included the happy hr/power hr menu.

I had 3 appetizers and 2 drinks my total was just over 32 dollars so rest assured that this deal is real, no hidden charges or hidden fees/taxes. Just thought it was odd that they accept all cards but you can only tip in cash (maybe this was just my case since I had such a small bill).

Service was great, I had a friendly bartender. The tamarindo flavored frozen margarita was definitely a star. The red sangria was also pretty good, they don’t skimp on ingredients, the bartender told me exactly how they make it.

For food I had the shrimp spring roll, teriyaki wings and chicken dumplings. Everything was great, arrived hot and fresh. Was surprised about the quality of the chicken wings, plenty of meat on the bones. I love how the wings were glazed and not drenched in sauce. The shrimp roll I’ll say isn’t worth the 6 dollars, one roll cut into 4 pieces. Portion sizes are small for these power hour dishes but the presentation and quality are on point.

Beautiful exterior and very nice modern interior. Bathroom could use a little attention; otherwise, I enjoyed my time here and would definitely come back if in the area. A bit of a hike from the A train (10 minute walk) which may not seem like much, but it’s winter and the walk is uphill on the way back.

Highly recommended for a cheap and quick happy hr. I came in around 5 pm and it wasn’t busy at all, just 1 other party.“

“Gracias a Los hermanos coffe exelente servicio y comida deliciosa 100% recomendado“

“The service was absolutely amazing. I felt like I was vip. The food was incredible. We destroyed every menu item. Every dish we ordered was delicious but if I were to rate each dish it would go: 1.pork belly sandwich, 2.the mofongo, 3.empandas and 4.tacos. Amazing atmosphere here, such a cute place. Would most definitely come back when I have the munchies.“

“The whole red snapper and coconut“

“First time eating Bolivian food and it was out of this world! Saltenas were rich, juicy, and hearty (start at one end) and the Sopa de Mani is not at all what I expected peanut soup to taste like. think of Rich complex New England clam chowder without the clams. really no peanutty taste at all. the owner was wonderful as well“

“We enjoyed everything about our visit to Latitude Zero. The dishes were beautifully presented, the atmosphere was lively yet relaxing, and the service was top-notch. A complete experience!
This restaurant exceeded all expectations. The warm ambiance and friendly staff made us feel at home from the moment we walked in. Each dish was flavorful and left us wanting more!
cocktails were delicious and we will definitely be back for more.“

“The constant busyness here confirms their food quality. The dish reflected care in every element. Our entire party raved about every item. Employees were prompt and courteous throughout. Rosa’s Steakhouse serves dishes I'll think about.“

“The staff, particularly Wendy, couldn’t be more lovely. Wendy tends to my 2 year old grandson which such sweetness! Above and beyond great service. ❤️“

“Crazy good empanadas - my partner and I shared the empanada flight as a takeout order, and I'll be thinking about these for a while. Nice variety of fillings, crusts, and sauces - definitely recommend ordering the flight to get acquainted with everything Titi's has to offer. In particular the puff pastry crusts were so flaky and buttery, but the corn and platano shells are great too. So glad to have this place in the neighborhood and can't wait to return.“

“Good food and coffee and friendly staff👍👍👍👍👍“
