16 Best Latin American Restaurants near New Providence

“This is a hidden gem in New Providence. The food is delicious. Fresh and tasty. Of course the specialties are the Latin dishes (yes even for breakfast!) but they also have standard favorites if you are not feeling so adventurous. Either way you cant beat the flavor or the freshness. One of my favorite spots in New Providence!“

“We had a delightful dinner! Leslie, the server was friendly and efficient. She provided great recommendations! We started with the lomo saltado quesadilla which was delicious. I had the chaufa with shrimp - fab. My sister had steak salad which was perfect and my friend had a lovely Peruvian roast chicken. Everything was top notch and we will be back soon!!“

“This is not a fancy place with dialed down flavor - it's a casual BYOB spot with warm and efficient service and a great selection of DELICIOUS Puerto Rican food. Good for dine in or take out. They are always on point. Don't know what dishes to mention because I like them all. Had the churrasco this time and it was just right with rice, beans and tostones. Yum is all I can say.“

“I love coming to this deli. Sonia always greets me when I walk through the door and remembering what I love to have the Taylor ham egg and cheese on a roll nothing on it. I went enough times to adj for just my usual and it's so respectful and enjoyable to hear them remember you and what you love to eat. The prices have kept inching up over the months, but I loved coming here now and then to keep enjoying my favorite sandwiches and supporting this friendly and wonderful business. This place went through 2 owner changes before it was stephs deli. Overall whenever I'll go to school or work and I need a quick breakfast I'll turn to stephs deli. Thank you my friends!!“

We will definitely come back!“

“This was our first time trying Pollo Campero in the U.S. and was really blown away on how delicious it taste like back home in Guatemala.The Yuca fries are to die for. They are soft, moist, and crispy on the outside.The chicken was delicious and juicy.Our order came out as expected. The chicken was extra fresh out the oil.The staff here were very welcoming and helpful.The restaurant is clean, especially the two bathrooms (you will need a code from the cashier to unlock the bathroom doors), and quiet.This is located in a busy area but there is parking at the back of the restaurant!I highly recommend stopping here to grab some fresh chicken to eat!“

“Chicken tamales are awesome! Called in an order close to closing time and was kindly accommodated even though they were in the process of cleaning up and such (the owner was shucking corn when I came in!). I even added to the order while the initial one was being prepared without being made to feel that I was being problematic. Had a nice convo with the owner about the history of her place. Nice staff, clean facility and good food!“

“Very tasty food, especially flavorful and the fried food was non greasy! Had the chicharrones that had pork, cassava and plantains and all were fried to perfection. Followed that with grilled fish rice and beans which was simple yet sumptuous. Also had chicharrones tacos that packed heat and juicyness. Excellent food, pleasant service, clean place, definitely will be a repeat customer.Parking: At rear of the establishment“
