“amazing colombian-style homestyle food. varied selection everything fresh & delicious!! also have fresh local roasted coffee and espresso that's better than the gas station mart coffee at a great price. i also like their fruit drinks and harritos sodas.“
“Hello my Foodies! So I was on another adventure with my friends to find great food and we found this Columbian place. It's a very small place so don't go with a big crowd. 4 people at the most. Although it's small, these are the places that usually have the best flavor! The portions were pretty big and the price was average. I had the skirt steak with sautéed onions and peppers, in a delicious red sauce. It came with beans and rice, of course. I ordered the chicharones on the side as well. They were good. I loved the whole meal it was an explosion of flavor, and I need to go back and try another dish. My friends had no complaints and left with full bellies and a smile on their faces. I gave it 4 stars only because I had also ordered empanadas, but my waitress forgot to bring them. But I will get them next time. The waitress was still pretty good and let me know that I could get 2 sides with my meal so I wouldn't have to pay extra for adding rice and beans. If you are in Kearny, I recommend this place to start.“

“My family and I were delighted with the 1A service, Mr. Mauricio was the one who served us today, it should be noted that he is attentive, friendly and very helpful, he kept us informed of the activities they do in the restaurant and in truth he never I had previously gone to a place here in NJ that made us feel at home, thank you Noches de Colombia for such delicious food and especially thanks to Mauricio for such cordial service, may God continue to bless you all, behind a good leader oh a good work team, blessings!!“
“Really good food and aesthetic atmosphere! Loved the nachos and quesadillas it was really fresh and delicious! Jessie was our server and she was very attentive and made sure we are okay at all times. It was my birthday and I really enjoyed celebrating here!“
“My brothers nephew and my first time here. I was beyond impressed. I was NOT disappointed. Walking in the smell was ???. The service was absolutely fantastic. All the workers were very nice and friendly. The food was omg. Look at the amount they serve. I ordered for one and they served for 2 ?. Looking for a new place to try I highly recommend cha cha cha. I will definitely be going back. All ready started telling people ?“
“It was my first time at a tapas bar and it couldn’t have been better. The upstairs dining room was really comfortable and felt homelike. Service was friendly and attention to detail was definitely practiced. The food was great. The best calamari I’ve experienced it wasn’t rubber like by any means. The lamb chops were very juicy and had a great sauce on them. Additionally the sangria was good. A pitcher goes a long way for two people. We would both strongly encourage visiting Beso.“
“My friend and I went here for dinner. The place has a great vibe. I saw other people saying that the stuff was either slow or too fast removing plates and so on. We did an experience at. Service was great and the food was excellent. Will definitely be returning when we come back to Newark!For some reason they gave us free appetizer. Garden salad, which was delicious and warm bread with warm olives and olive oil.My friend had the 23 ounce pork chop… Wow!He had a dirty vodka martini, which he said was excellent.And I had the seafood paella valenciana.Which I started with an apéritif of vermouth no ice and a glass of white wine.“
“Excellent tacos. ? This is a usual spot for us and it never disappoints here. The large tacos have guacamole in it and it also comes with an entire grilled green onion. Now, I hate onions. But I have no clue why I’m able to eat it here with the tacos… it’s that good. Opt for the large tacos. The regular size is fine but for just a dollar more you get more bang for the buck, literally. Very low key establishment. It isn’t festive. I don’t believe they serve alcohol either. But the tacos are amazing. And amazingly affordable! As always, better to eat fresh and dine in. Order the Tacos… when the restaurant’s name begins with Tacos, you better order the Tacos ?!!! ????“
“I stopped in here on the way to the airport during a delay due to the earthquake. I had the bombas, they were the star of the show !!! But they were not hot, luke warm and cold. The pulpio was ok, somone called it the best thing on menu. I hope that is not the case !! The empanadas were too hot lol they took forever to cool down.“
“My new favorite restaurant! Everything is fresh and filling, you can taste the care and love put into the dishes. The ambiance is comforting and inviting, the kind of place you could sit and eat and drink for hours. The bartenders are very nice. 10/10“
“Walk into Basque country, enjoy wonderful food experiences and atmosphere. A special place- a gem hidden in the Ironbound, where you are transported into a culinary adventure to be shared with family and friends. A formal restaurant and lively soccer bar, enjoy both and La Liga matches surrounded by true aficionados who regular there. After your first visit, there remains a constant call to return and repeat the same, again and again and again..... Enjoy“
“Thank you for the excellent service Meybelin, very attentive and helpful, the food was delicious, the service very excellent, I love this restaurant and that is why I visit it frequently ??? the person who served me was super friendly, he deserves a raise ?“
“While in the city, my partner and I were looking for a lowkey spot to grab a small bite, and cocktail within close proximity to our hotel. This place came up in my Yelp search so we decided to check it out. Once we were seated and able to check out the menu, we opted for meatballs, the pulpo and cocktails. And the chocolate lava cake to finish. The dishes, drink and dessert we had were great. If the few dishes we ordered tasted that great. I can only imagine how great the rest of the menu must be. It's a cozy, dimly lit but inviting spot. And the service was good. I can't wait to return!“
“My dad first put me on this restaurant by its delicious, fresh takeout food. We'd typically order octopus or whole fish. My parents decided to take us out for our birthday and it was not a disappointment. I felt like I was in Portugal without actually traveling there and it's a home away from home from the moment you walk in.Everyone ordered different entrées and each dish offered a unique, top-quality taste. If you're looking for an authentic Portuguese spot in the Hudson County area, Pic-Nic is your go-to!Vegetarian options: There is a vegetarian option available on the menu.Parking: About 11 or 12 parking spaces and street parking is very difficult given the area.Kid-friendliness: While there is no kids menu, there are few options available for children.Wheelchair accessibility: Whether parked in the lot or on the street, you can easily access the lot, entrance and seating area with a wheelchair.“
“Today I ordered food for Lunch, super delicious.I recommend the broth, the corviches and the breaded chicken, it's super delicious, the house mayonnaise and spicy sauce is delicious and the portions are very large... it's totally worth it, it takes you back to our country completely.I always order from my Ubereats account and they send me little notes, this time my husband asked for it and he didn't feel that love haha“
“Great service. Great food. A little on the expensive side but considering the food and service I wouldn't say they are out of line. I might go as far as saying the service was borderline excellent. Don't miss their Sangria. It is one of the better ones out there“
“I come at least 2 times per week. Very friendly staff, a lot of food options and drinks. Extremely organize and live music as wells. You can not go wrong coming here. Thanks you Jonathan for always bring a good service and being very professional.“
“Amazing place....the lobster tank impressive. The waiters were cute and friendly. All you can eat shrimp ? friday all day was delicious. With a Mango Mohito and mint...drink I left alittle tipsy. A definite 5 stars. Will definitely come again...a must try for all seafood lovers!!!“
“Love love love this place. In my opinion is the best authentic Columbian restaurant. Their mini empanada beef or chicken are a MUST!! You can't have just one. They bake everything onsite. I've had their grilled chicken and it's juicy, plus tostones (fried green plantains) and sweet plantains, salad bowls are amazing! I always look forward to going back. Parking- It's street parking, no meters but it's on a very busy street.“
“My wife and I went in for a quick breakfast sandwich (Bacon, egg and cheese, coffee, and a natural juice - tamarindo) and everything tasted amazing. The staff is very friendly and even customize the sandwiches for us. We would definitely go back and recommend as well ?“
“Definitely a seafood lovers destination. The wait time can be long sometimes but its well worth it. I'd rather wait for excellent food than get mediocre food on demand. The staff is awesome and so are the owners. Its always a pleasure going there to eat. See you guys real soon. (Getting hungry)“
“Best place ever to have nice diner and have fun ? the drinks are the best I personally like mojito and margaritas , I really recommend his place , safe good music ?Kid-friendliness: Great place to have a good time .. excellent and friendly staff . Mateo a the best bartender . I fully recommend kana 10/10“
“This place has GREAT food! Everything is good... The service is okay, but the staff is super nice. They have catering options also! Check them out for your next event!While they have seating available, I wouldn't plan on anything intimate. It's a take out place that you can sit down if you like.Parking: There are meters but nobody comes by to check. Street parking available in VERY limited supply. But you're not walking more than a block“
“great spot in Passaic to whine down and relax with some good good, a huge monitor displaying the beautiful coastal scenery and TVs with games on in case youre missing it. service was excellent because they kept an eye on me in case i was ready to ask for something. which i didnt but i respect that attention.“
“I bought soup to take away even the tripe soup lacked more vegetables but the flavor was very good and the chicken soup was good tooWheelchair accessibility: If you can go with a wheelchair, this information is for those who have that implement.“
“Pretty decent spot, not too far away from 46 which is good. Handicap accessible as the whole establishment is on one floor I had the sweet Thai chili wings extra crispy, and Lord were they amazing!! I was obsessed and so sad that I was done eating them Lol. The Bartender and Bar were super attentive and helpful. Love the service!Parking: Probably more than 20 parking spotsWheelchair accessibility: No steps all on ground level/one floor.“
“The service is top-notch. The complimentary ham soup is delicious, but beware, you will be too full to eat if you finish it. The specials are fabulous every time, so take note. The seafood risotto was packed with fresh clams, mussels, and calamari. The seafood in salsa verdi was excellent. Each type of seafood in the dish was cooked perfectly. The flan is the best I've tasted. The espresso martini is the perfect end to a great meal. You need to try this place.“
“Great environment. Good service. The inside is nice & they have a cute outdoor space in the back. They provide complimentary bread with tomato spread. The spread is very well flavored, with a tiny bit of a kick. I would guess it’s tomatoes, olive oil, fresh pepper, fresh garlic, & a touch of salt. The ham & cheese croquetas are delicious & creamy. The tortilla española is flavorful & comes with a little bit of greens, but I drizzled the tomato spread over it for a bit more flavor. The crema catalana was delicious. I only wish it came with more strawberries. 100% returning.Vegetarian options: They offer numerous vegetarian options.“
“I've been here a few times and they never miss. This is a must have when it comes to Spanish food . I just wish they were open on Sunday and that they delivered ??.. GO support them. I also order white rice, Black beans and baked chicken with a side of plantains and get my daughter some empanadas. I've also some stew chicken as “
“My partner and I came here for some lunch and came out with so much more. Very clean, affordable prices, with very friendly staff, and amazing food. Pictured with my review is the double cheeseburger, yuca fries, and a delicious beef empanada. We definitely plan on returning ??“
“I have been a loyal customer for four years and I can say that the food and service is excellent. Always the girls happy and with a smile. I recommend everyone to visit and try the delicious food! Try the house hot sauce, it's delicious!“
“Stopped by for lunch today and was blown away. Aside from over a dozen fried empanadas to choose from, they had five baked varieties on display. Inside is seating for 20, a soda fountain and a small drink fridge with about 10 options. Empanada are $6 but double the size you'll find elsewhere. I got the chicharrones de cerdo bowl. Served piping hot and fresh, the pork wasn't hard but had great flavor and chew. The sauteed red onions were a nice touch on top of a bed of fluffy white rice and iconic black beans. The squeeze of lime over everything married all the flavors together giving it that zesty acidity. $15.98 and well worth it, could only finish half.It took less than 10 minutes to prepare.Parking: Better off in the back or on a side street“
“This restaurant does seafood right. The paella was perfect, as were the soccer shrimp. The appetizers consisting of fried calamari and shrimp in garlic sauce were excellent. The unsung hero of the meal was the fresh baked bread that allowed the delicious sauce to be sopped up like sponge. The only real downside is the dining room that lacks any real character or vibe.“
“Amazing whole in the wall spot. I'm puertorican, and it's hard to find a good boricua place in NJ. This place is great. The food is great, and the service is outstanding. They treat their customers like family, and the prices are good. I definitely recommend this spot!“
“Came here for a repast lunch. We ordered from the regular menu. The food is good and they obviously have a happening bar vibe in the evenings. Prices are reasonable and service was good considering we were at least 20 people. There were some hits and misses on some of the dishes but overall a good experience.“
“Located right off McCarter Highway in Newark right by South Street. This Manny's is way different than the others I have visited. A big platter is still $8 and empandas are still $2. I ordered stewed chicken with rice & black beans. Chicken was juicy & falling off the bone, rice was cooked well, not over cooked as were the beans. I ate this food for 3 days as the portion size is huge. I will be back...“
“Came here for lunch and ordered the birria bowl: rice, black beans, cheese, pico de gallo, and birria meat. The birria meat was great, tasty, tender, and delicious. The combo of salsa verde and sour cream added flavor to the dish. Portion was a bit small... My gf ordered the birria taco and she felt alright with it. The place is small and cozy. However, i had better birria in queens, which biased my taste and judgement on the taste...“
“Absolutely delicious! You have to try their Sopes with one or two meats and all the fixings - the flavors are incredible! If you're in the mood for something more laid-back, their soft tacos are a perfect choice. The menu offers a wide variety of options, and I guarantee you'll love whatever you choose. Highly recommend!“
“Awesome place! I have been coming here for over 30 years and it never disappoints! The food is amazing, the sangria is not watered down and the service is exceptional!The most recent visit was to celebrate a group of birthdays. They gave us one of the rooms which fit about 25 of us. Even though we were separated from main dining room, servers were still very attentive. The portions are larger so they are shareable. I had skirt steak that came with veggies and mashed potatoes. The steak was cooked exactly as ordered. We brought our own cakes and they sliced and served for us. We never felt rushed and stayed for over 3 hours. We got there at 3pm on a Sunday so it wasn't too crowded. I will continue coming and highly recommend!“
“A friend ordered a variety of wraps and some fried chicken for my family which was a wonderful surprise in itself. But to add to this the food was Amazing!!! Crispy non greasy moist chicken, tasty huge chicken wraps and the largest fresh shrimp wraps with fresh vegetables that I have ever seen. Give this local establishment a chance you won’t be disappointed.“
“Best flavored food I've had since being on the East Coast this past year. I got the yellow rice, habichuela, and pernil. The skin was so crunchy, and everything was delicious. Can't wait to go back and try the empanadas and other meat. Glad I found this gem of a “
“We have been going here for over 35 years. Always have celebrations. Portions and prices are great. We'll be celebrating both mine and my daughters birthday there next weekend.Kid-friendliness: VeryWheelchair accessibility: Have always been kid friendly. My youngest of four will be 18. We've been bringing them since they were infants.“
“Always great food. Staff shows all effort, especially if Spanish is not your strength. The bread is amazing. Calamari were hot and fresh, and the sauce is better than at most restaurants. Vegetables are cooked well. Shish kebabs of shrimp, pork, chorizo and steak is big and tasty. The sangria is very good, red or white.“
“As a patron of the Tenafly location, I wanted to try the Montclair locale. Parking isn't great around there but we managed. The cocktails were good. There was a grilled octopus plate served with a salad as an appetizer and it was delicious! Most of the entrees were seasoned okay but nothing stood out. One of our 5 dishes came out wrong but corrected within 5 minutes. The original dish was meant for another table and we got the correct plate quickly. Noise level was normal for a Friday night. Very nice ambiance - decor wise. Would return.“
“It's so hard to find a good , authentic Ecuadorian place and I finally found one ! The service was great and the food was even better. I had a ceviche de camaron to share with my husband and it wasn't what I typically see , it was done a little differently than what I'm accustomed to but it was delicious . I got the seco de chivo as my entree and it was so flavorful , it took me back to when I lived in Ecuador so authentic. Overall 10/10. I would definitely recommend this place and I will be coming back!“

“I came to Nano’s 2 times. My daughter and I went to the Nano’s in Passaic, NJ. The foods are good and the smoothie drink is very delicious! My daughter loves strawberry smoothies. The nano’s is good place. I will go over there again sometime“
“Mannys is a family owned and operated restaurant so the atmosphere is very friendly and everyone seems to know each other!! They make u feel welcomed and appreciated which is hard to find nowadays. My favorite dish is the stewed chicken w/veggie rice. The small take out box is only $7 but can easily feed 2. The large is (I believe) $9, and both come with a handful of yummy plantanos. The chicken literally melts in ur mouth and they use just the right amount of seasoning so its not too spicy for those of us who don't like spicy food!! Lunch/dinner at Mannys is always a pleasureable experience ? !!! Neighborhood isn't all that bad as other reviews mentioned, however, parking will b tricky!! Overall - ★★★★★“
“What a great little spot food was yummy we had the clams in the garlic sauce to start which was nicely cooked. I then had the grilled swordfish which was juicy and yummy. Very chill environment with a pleasant and accommodating staff. Read online the ownership changed recently and wish them the best of luck the only downside was parking but one of the joys of Kearny unfortunately.“
