I didn't have a reservation yet the Owner created us with open arms and was able to have us seated almost immediately. The service was impeccable, quick and polite. And the food was just amazing.

This place has become one of my favorites after only one visit! The food, the service, and overall vibe was great. The food was just a mix of flavors, and you can see the influences through each dish. The bakery is great too - those Alfafor cookies were AMAZING. It is almost like they were made out of your dreams.

I’ve been dying to visit this spot and now that I finally have, it was beyond my high expectation. Food, atmosphere, and hospitality 10/10.

Props to the Chef and Baker! Best Dominican/Peruvian infused restaurant around.

Amazing food and service! Went there for brunch to celebrate a friend’s birthday and from the moment we walked in the one of the owners greeted us. He was so nice and checked in on us a few times and gave us a small back story on how his wife and himself opened up the place. Everyone is my group loved their food. It was authentic and had lots of flavor. The tres leches latte was amazing if you have a sweet tooth like me. Our waitress was also kind. We sat in the back patio which was nice and cozy. Will def be returning.

I am hesitant to share too much about this wonderful hidden gem in Montclair because I don’t want to have to wait in line for a table. That said, I can’t keep this bright light to myself. It is a ten. Authentic ambiance brought me right back to a recent trip to DR. The knowledgable staff happily navigated menu choices. The cortado was full-bodied but not overpowering and I only needed one to get the boost I was looking for. The steak sandwich with yuca fries was possibly the best sandwich I have ever had - aesthetically pleasing, the fired eggs rested on top of perfectly grilled steak with roasted peppers, the roll was kissed by a delicate sauce which offered a touch of sweetness to contrast the savory dish. Then, closing out the meal, chef and owner, Brian, came to the table to make sure we were enjoying our meals. Conversation came naturally as he shared a little bit of his story. His roots are in the DR and his wife, the pastry chef, is from Peru. Together they create a wonderful menu, infusing the best of their cultures and sharing it all with diners in Montclair. Go today and order with confidence. There is no wrong choice.

Everything was super fresh, tasty, and beautifully presented. The homemade sauces had just the right amount of flavor, not too spicy. Lots of fun dishes to pick from. Coffee was great too.

Service was great and the ambience is bright, modern and cute.

It was also lovely seeing the ladies making the empanadas.

Simply put, we had an exceptional late lunch at Libélula. In fact, the best meal we’ve had in Montclair! They were also very helpful in clarifying the menu to my daughter who has food allergies.

Hope to go back soon!
