This place is a 12/10. Got the quarter chicken with rice and beans and it was exactly what I wanted. Tried the beef empanadas as well and they were phenomenal. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this place if you like good food.

This is hands down the best Spanish restaurant in New Jersey. Everything is always fresh. The staff is excellent and friendly. Great prices and good selection on food items. Keep it up!

The employees are very kind! lately I noticed they used to be good with pricing and now they kind of scrape people with their prices for the portion ur getting. I used to like them and I know eventually prices on things do go up on things. I went to get a salad plain with just avocados and tomatoes nothing else although the price she said for just the salad alone compared to the price I pay when I get the salad with meat was more. I chose not to purchase it due to personal preference....
