Cha Cha Cha Cuban Cafe

seriously the best cuban restaurant in jersey. omg 😲 👌😍😋😋😋

I’ve been on the hunt for an authentic Cuban sandwich and had no luck until I stumbled upon this cafe on my Instagram feed. It looked so delicious that I just had to check it out. Oh my goodness, I’m so happy I did! As soon as I walked in, I felt like I had stepped into a little piece of Cuba. The aroma was incredible, making me want to try everything on the menu. It’s a family-owned place, and I had the pleasure of meeting the family—they were so warm and welcoming. The owner noticed I had traveled quite a distance, so he kindly let me sample some of his recommendations for my next visit. I took my food to go, and even after a 45-minute drive home, it tasted absolutely perfect. I will definitely be ordering from here again!

All I can say is Wow, wow and Wow! Visiting here from Florida, my husband and I asked our friend for a good Cuban Restaurant recommendation. He suggested Cha Cha Cha in Kenilworth.
I, being second generation Cuban, did not expect the food to be as amazing as it was. My mom was the best cook ever and it was always difficult for me to eat elsewhere and be truly satisfied, so I must say that the food here is absolutely amazing! One of our orders was the Vaca Frita. Let me just say that not many Cuban restaurants have this on their menu as it is quite the dish to prepare. What a treat that took me back in time. The taste here is authentic. The service is outstanding and the staff genuinely friendly.
If you live in the area or are visiting from elsewhere, this is the place to dine.
A++ for great service, cleanliness, freshness of food and authenticity of my Cuban culture.
Goodbye, until our next visit to New Jersey!

I really enjoy the Cuban sandwich been there twice in one week just ordering that thing. I have to try their other options! Ralph is the man with the plan, super chill guy and helped me order a sandwich last minute after realizing they had just closed. I recommend the sandwich so far. Looking forward to trying something new soon!

We had the immense pleasure of having dinner at Cha Cha Restaurant. We are expert tasters of Cuban food throughout the United States and the world, especially in the city of Miami. Without fear of making a mistake, we dare to say that the truly Cuban flavor of the entire Cha Cha Restaurant menu is extremely special and preserves the entire Cuban tradition of good homemade taste. We find especially in the Roasted Piglet, the Yucca with Mojo, the Congrí, the Pork Doughs, the Coconut Flan and to top it off the Bon Bon Coffee, which the owners and cooks along with all their employment, will strive for you to enjoy each ingredient to the fullest very well combined achieving an excellent homemade flavor. We recommend this small and very cozy restaurant, if you really want to enjoy an excellent Cuban "grandmother's" food!!!
