“Quaint, cozy place, "welcome home/family vibe." The lady taking care of the place (I think she's the owner) is amazing! She took such good care of us and went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our time there. The food was very good and the portions are huge, definitely worth it. If you like small places with good food, you gotta stop by. Street parking only but there's enough parking and there's a city parking lot nearby.“

“Great food and amazing coffee“

“If you've never had an arepa, try it! The bean casserole is AMAZING. Colombian cuisine, but they also have burgers, hot dogs, etc. Open air seating, also indoors. There is a sports bar down the hall and a dance hall upstairs; something for everyone. I've only been on the weekends and there is LIVE MUSIC to enjoy, sing and dance along to. Best of all, it's open 24 hours.“

“Comida deliciosa y ambiente súper agradable👍🏻“

“WOW!! Love Love Love this little place. lt’s great! First of all, we've been looking for a good burger place in the Union City, WNY, NB area, and it’s been tough, usually they’re mediocre at best, but not this one.
We walked jn and were warmly greeted. Our server was so sweet! She handed us a menu, which looks like an ipad, and there were so many choices, with pictures of the what the food looks like.
My bf and I ordered 2 burgers because we were in a burger mood. I can say that it definitely wasn’t a disappointment! The burgers were juicy, tasty and big! Definitely the Best burger we’ve had in the area.

The place is small, but so charming with all the decor. And they have a TV screen which shows how all the food is prepared. definitely makes you hungry!

Granted, the burgers were messy but definitely worth it! Besides the fact that they give you utensils.

As we were walking out, we ran into one of the owners, And we had to tell him how much we loved the place and the food.

Parriyas is absolutely a great choice for sandwiches and bowls and the wonderful service!

Thank you, Juan, for introducing yourself and letting us know that you also have restaurant delivery as well as Grub hub. We will absolutely become regulars!

“awesome food... great service.“

“Very first visit to the Paterson location. Came from work and searched for places to eat in the area. Very cute place. Very clean and the hostess was nice. She Let us know there were lunch specials . Food was fresh and tasty. Lots of options and all lol as amazing as the Bacon cheeseburger that I ordered and the Wonder burger ordered by my friend. There are different prices for cash and credit. I suggest you bring cash. They have a nice patio and area that can be used for gatherings. The only part I didn’t like was that they add a 15% gratuity w/o notice before spinning around the payment terminal. . I didn’t realize that and added a tip. So they got a double tip. Let me be the one to double tip. Make sure you tell your customers that you auto add tips or you may not have returning customers. We appreciate the restaurant industry and your contribution, but let the customer decide on tip. Other than that , it was a good experience.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolutely AMAZING experience at Noches De Colombia North Bergen! The restaurant is beautiful, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the food was incredible. Our waitress Mayra was the highlight of the night so friendly, attentive, and on top of everything from start to finish. She made us feel so comfortable and well taken care of. You can truly tell she cares about her guests. If you’re looking for great vibes, great service, and a place where you’ll have an awesome time, this is it. Highly recommend!“

“Love this place , food, atmosphere staff location etc. What I don't like and so ny family and friends is the music is always too loud. I spoke about this before with no actions to resolve it.“

“Great food and amazing coffee“

“Looking for a place to eat some Spanish food in the area, we gladly end up here. Service from the only waitress that night was exceptional and very professional. The place is big and I believe because it was late at night was almost empty, I.saw a lots of take out orders do. Now here you will find the typical freezers/coolers with all kinds of colombian sodas, desserts and what not. They do have a good variety in the bakery section. And the food was surprisingly good with a good flavor and presentation. Prices were reason too. Overall if we ever come back to this area we will be paying a visit to this place again“

“The food is delicious and the service is great!“

“If you’re craving authentic Colombian flavors, PARCEROS is a must-visit! The food is absolutely delicious — from the perfectly seasoned empanadas to the mouthwatering bandeja paisa, every dish feels like a taste of home. The portions are generous, the ingredients fresh, and the presentation is on point.

The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff treats you like family — friendly, attentive, and always smiling. You can tell they take real pride in what they serve. Whether you’re Colombian or just a fan of Latin cuisine, this spot hits the mark.

Highly recommend for anyone looking for real-deal Colombian comfort food in a cozy, upbeat setting. ¡Buen provecho!“

“me encanta la reina pepiada.😋“

“Second time ordering lechona from La Victoria. We hosted family visiting from Colombia and they were all very impressed by the portion size, crispy skin, and how delicious it was. La Victoria was very accommodating with a last minute change of plans and was very helpful and generous with preparation suggestions and follow up. We will certainly be ordering from them again. Muchas Gracias!“

“Buena atención, buena música y buena comida.“

“I didn't expect the food to be this delicious, but what I liked the most and why I would return would be the sauces. I have been living in the United States for a while and it is the first Colombian restaurant that has good tartar and good pineapple. If that's what you're looking for, there it is... what a delicious tartar and pineapple“

“That place is lovely , the decorations and atmosphere are so peaceful and good for pictures. The most important , The Food is real good . The burgers are so big , so normally I don't have space for desert but beverage are really nice and delicious. I love the place“

“This place serves meals that make you smile with satisfaction. Employees here show remarkable attention to needs. The setting feels right. The kitchen presents food that's both pretty and delicious. I saw consistent quality throughout.“

“You would never expect some really good food from the exterior look. It not a restaurant but a grocery store that sell prep food dishes. Food is made fresh daily. Friendly service. Some minimal seating for quick eats for locals lunch time. Parking is limited in the back. For the price of a processed value meal across the fast food place, I rather get some freshly cooked home style flavorful Latin food.“

“We saw their post on IG and we had to try it! The customer service is amazing, I had questions about every dish and they were super friendly and sweet and took the time to explain everything. The food was just perfect! One of the best Colombian food I’ve ever had.“

“I enjoy tasting empanadas from all types of places. Empanada Mama is by far the best of any place I’ve ever tasted!! The portions were stunning, the food was full of flavor, the menu is large, and the dessert empanadas are just as amazing as the savory ones! Definitely some comfort food right here ❤️ Amazing delivery as well“

“We had a fantastic dinner with a party of 10, with prompt and attentive service by our server Steven. He gave us recommendations for food, and checked on our group often. The food was great as well. We chose a variety of dishes, and greatly enjoyed the guacamole, various meat dishes, and seafood dishes.“

“I loved my first time there Not only is it good but priced nicely Service was great and done with a smile High recommendations“

“Delicious Bakery items: Pan de Guaba, Pan de Chocolate, Pan de Guaba sliced and Cheese Bread and Empanadas. Beef empanadas are excellent, light and crispy on the outside and soft and flavorful on the inside. Breads are delicious, perfect taste to dunk your coffee in. They are a restaurant too, they have great selections. Go here for your tasty bakery items. There are more bakery selections too… so so Good!!“

“Wow. Just went to this place. It was delicious. Nice people and service. Clean. I had the Colombian eggs with Chicharron and rice. Sooooo good!!! I’ll be back.“

“It's one of the most delicious restaurants I've ever been to.

It's easier to order if you can speak Spanish but the staff speak enough English that it's okay.

The special of the day is fantastic. I recommend the fish.

Parking: Street parking is easiest but you can probably park at the city lot down the street or at the post office if you have to.“

“I love this restaurant the food is awesome good service classic Colombian food I love the rice with coconut that is the best rice that I ever had and the soup ajiaco that is the best soup they have. You have to order 20 minutes before you get there it takes a little while but it's worth waiting or call ahead if you're really hungry“

“Highly recommend. Stopped in from Philly on our way to a wedding in NY and very happy we did. Terrific service, so friendly, delicious food, and many options. Would happily come back if in the area.

“I got my lunch today from La Placita. The food was super delicious.I had, white rice, beans, pork , and a little salad. The lunch also includes a little soup. They had beef or chicken.I picked chicken soup, perfect for this type of weather.
Another thing I like about La Placita, is their extensive bakery line.I had the corn bread, it's shape in the form of a big tart.Delicious. Their guava roll is extremely good also.
This place is always extremely clean.I Love to get my meals and bakery items from here .

Friendly and very patient with my friend who doesn't speak Spanish. Great atmosphere and great service. I will definitely come back here when I am in town again.“

“Very tasty buns with cheese🫶👍👍👍Thank you!!!“

“The staff at this location were very warm and welcoming. The food came out really fast. Their portions are good too. I would say a plate here is shareable between two people. I ordered the Asadito with two sides of rice and it was just enough for my cousin and I. Their drinks are good, but not strong.“
