“Really enjoyed my visit! The food was great and the portions are plenty, so you definitely won't leave hungry. Impeccable service and a quick wait time made the experience even better. If you’re planning to go, I’d suggest stopping by in the afternoon to beat the crowds since it’s a popular spot.“

“The most genuine experience of the Choco people, their culture, and the food is absolutely phenomenal. the seafood and the portions are just like you're on the coast of Buena Ventura- They prepare the meals fresh so be patient, listen to music and have a beer- you will not regret the meal. :0“

“It is a clean place and although it is not luxurious, the food and service is wonderful. To start I ordered an empanada from Pabellon and without waste, delicious; Then I ordered a cachara with cheese, and it was delicious full cheese. Truly a Venezuelan enterprise that deserves to be supported, because you will enjoy a delicious meal and they will serve you with Venezuelan warmth. I recommend it.“

“I think the azúcar buffet is great. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone. The food is amazing I love the service and the people who work here. Angelina and the other staff members are great. I love how they are always greeting me and everyone else saying good morning and good evening and make my day. I think the drinks are great. The buffet is really clean and neat. It’s one of my favorite buffets to go to. I would definitely recommend to go with family members it’s child friendly and there is no problems at all. Shout out to the manager who keeps this place going!“

“Great experience with the friendly staff behind the counter. They were super helpful and helped me in deciding on my order. I ordered the carne asada platter with rice and beans. The food was pretty good, although the steak could have been better. Overall, it was still enjoyable. Plus, the prices were very reasonable.“

“This place is called “Victoria’s” (as of Jan 2026) but since the review isn’t saving on the Victoria tag, I’ll leave it here for Las Delicias (im guessing this was the old name of the restaurant)

Victoria’s is an amazing place for really good Colombian food. It’s very busy on weekends and deservedly so.

Staff are friendly, professional and very patient. We ordered a bunch of food to go because there were no open tables, but eventually switched our order to dine-in

We loved the sancocho (soup) with oxtail, and also had the bandeja paisa (a big platter of meats with sides). This dish comes from the central region of Colombia where they grow coffee, and it’s always our go-to meal when we try Colombian places

This is definitely one of our new favorite places - whatever you get, definitely ask for their “aji”

It’s like a spicy salsa, and goes well with empanadas or grilled meats. Don’t call it salsa.. call it by the word used by people in Colombia (and also Peru)- aji

The aji was spicy and flavorful and better than any other ColombiaN spot we’ve tried in NJ“

“Came here to celebrate my birthday on a Thursday a little after noontime with my wife and four year old daughter. We drove up from PA which took us about an hour’s drive. We’ve been to the Elizabeth location and loved the food & service. The food was delicious and the portions were more than what I expected. I had the “Mar y Tierra salteado” with a side of tostones and a passion fruit juice with milk. My wife had the regular “mar y Tierra” also with tostones and a strawberry lemonade juice. My daughter had chicken tenders and rice from the kids menu.

The food was delicious. My only complaint was that the passion fruit juice was very sour. For $20 we ordered an appetizer of large guacamole with enough chips for like four people which was too much for us since it was just me and my wife. We ate all the guacamole but not all of the chips. By the time we got our food, I was a little full and had to give myself a break during my main meal to finish it.

Our waitress gave us excellent service. I didn’t get her name, but she was very warm, friendly, polite and attentive to everything we needed. The food and drinks arrived in a decent amount of time. However, it did take her a little bit too long to bring us our bill. We were done with our meal and sat there for quite some time, I’d say about 15-20 minutes until she returned with our check after asking for it. She seemed a bit overwhelmed as there were several other tables near us which she was also serving.

For a Thursday around 1230pm, I was surprised to find a decent amount of customers inside. It wasn’t full, but there were a good amount of customers enjoying lunch. I can only imagine how packed this place gets on Friday nights and weekends.

As mentioned earlier, it was my birthday and my wife let the waitress know. At the end of our meal, our waitress came out with other waitresses carrying a tray with ice cream and chocolate cake. They gathered around our table and sang out happy birthday to me in front of all customers with some upbeat music playing in the loudspeakers. It was a nice gesture.

I gave my rating 4 stars only because I didn’t like that they charge you more for paying with a credit card vs paying in cash. I think it was about a $10 difference for me when I got my bill. I understand that businesses get charged when customers pay with credit cards but no other restaurants that I’ve been to do this. I also give it 4 stars because I didn’t like that I had to pay $20 for a large bowl of guac and chips. I asked if they had smaller sizes and was told no. It’s ok if there’s a large group, but for smaller families I feel there should be more options. Finally, I was surprised to see that we got charged $18 for the birthday tray which was brought out to me. It’s a little pricey honestly and I don’t recall seeing it advertised on the menu. The tip is already charged on the bill at 15% which is fine with me. You have the option to add more tip if you’d like.

In all we enjoyed our experience and will return in the future.“

“We got the bandeja paisa, and beef empanadas. The empanadas were delicious just the right amount of crunch and very flavorful. The bandeja paisa lacked salt and flavor, everything tasted the same. The steak and beans in particular lacked seasoning. The salchicha and chicharrón were tasty they saved the dish. The servers were friendly and attentive.“

“The food was amazing and the service exceeded our expectations! Definitely going back with my family!“

“the hospitality and wonderful authentic selections.“

“Small, unassuming joint in New Brunswick, serving up comfort Colombian. Street parking.

Its one of those brochure menu places, can't find it online and have no idea the actual names of what we ordered. We were struggling with the terminology but staff was patient with answering our questions. She also turned down the tv when we asked and let us hang out for a good hour or so. Thumbs up.

They got fruity milkshakes (raspberry confirmed delicious), empanadas, arepas and a whole bunch of others in between. Most of which is deliciously fried, tons of flavor, with a perfect ratio of crispy and chewy mouthfeels.

Pan de bono. Cheese bread thats not just cheese bread... its blow your mind chewy cheese bread. In a donut shape. It doesn't look like something that will rock your world but rock it it will. YOU MUST TRY THIS.“

“Usually stop in for empanadas, but decided to sit and dine in today. Everything was delicious and every server was so pleasant!! The soup was so flavorful and a great portion. I split the chicken sandwich with my boyfriend and we both loved it, the bread was super fresh. It’s cash only inside so just remember that, otherwise it was great and we’re definitely making this one our regular spots. They’re also now on DoorDash!!“

“I don't speak Spanish, and the staff didn't speak much English, but they were patient and kind with me. Helped me get what I wanted, and everything I had was delicious. I had chicharrons, cheese arepa, and a guava pastry. Highly recommend.“

“Excelente ambiente y exquisita comida 👍“
