The food here is generally good. I used to be a twice a week regular. After COVID, they raised the prices outrageously, so I dropped down to twice a month. Then they hired Juana, the girly boy with lots of issues and a nasty attitude as the cashier who deals with the customers, and I no longer spend my money with this establishment. They don't know how to treat customers like customers, and although tasty the entire menu is extremely expensive in an abusive atmosphere. Don't waste your money here folks, Juana just wants to go home with her paycheck.

This place is great! I love the tacos, I live on them! Freshly chopped onions and tomatoes with cilantro! It goes perfect with my favorite Congri rice! They also have chicken quesadillas and sell half chicken on the bone grilled! I prefer to pickup. Homemade, taste the difference! The place is very clean and the people are nice! Enjoy it!

Food isn't what it used to be. Service was below average due to the attitude of person taking orders. SHE was very snappy and rude. And the atmosphere was just ok. There's plenty of other great selections in the

Every time you order delivery, look at the price, they charge much more than the price indicated on the menu.

I had the congri Rice, two orders or sweet plantains, white rice and grilled chicken for me and my husband. The white rice was fine, the congri rice was so salty it literally gave me a headache so I threw it out, the plantains was very oily, soggy and overly mushy it wasn't a good texture, the chicken was tough and dry but the flavor was there.

I had there chicken one day, large portions very moist and juicy. Then I had there ribs, they were very good, the meat just slides of the bone. Definitely will be coming here again. They have a large selection to choose from. Thanks for the great food.

Food is hit or miss Chicken can be dry and tasteless at times. Was definitely better in the early days. Ribs are bland.
6/16/23The beans smell roten. Like if they had around three days old. The chicken was lame and dry.

Not even going to waste the time writing a detailed review. Have given this place more than one chance. Intentionally withheld items. (As with a fair majority of Jersey City Heights), If you’re black, just go elsewhere.

Not sure is it is because 7pm and they were tired or they are genuinely racist , I’m arab and I was given attitude and called names “ employees whispered between each others in Spanish “ just because I asked for spicy mayo , great food tho

dry chicken, laughable prices, and terrible service. The difference in treatment of the Hispanic patrons and myself was distinct. Also relatively sure they intentional failed to bag one of my items. And a few to takeout?! What?! This place is a glorified crown fried. Just go up the street, in either direction, and get a much better experience at any of the restaurants you find.

Absolutely wonderful food and helpful staff. We came here for a late night bite and you could just smell the grill walking in. The chop chop bowl and the fried yucca was great as well and they were quite generous with the sauce.Of course, you can’t come here without trying their chicken. Not only was it perfectly seasoned and grilled, it was also quite reasonably priced.Highly recommended!
