Colombian Restaurants near Pompton Lakes, NJ

“Chef’s Kiss!!! Came here for lunch one day and was pleasantly surprised. The ceviche de chicharron was something I’m going to crave. All three entrees we ordered were made with love. Like no short cuts. Also it’s run by a husband and wife couple which I love so much. Go support your local small businesses out there. And you deserve some really good food! We will be back.“

“Excellent service from all members of the restaurant. I call this place my second home, it is comfortable, the food is delicious and the service is excellent.
Thanks to Jelisa and Aide for their good attention. ♥️♥️🫡👅“

“The staff is super attentive and friendly. The food is tasty and super rich, the portion is excellent. I love this place, the natural juices and the Bendita Arepa are my ALWAYS favorites. They have a beautiful outdoor/indoor space to celebrate any activity. I recommend this place 100%“

“Late post:

We went on a February weekday (Wednesday Lunch time) and the place was clean, well decorated for Valentine's. There was a good crowd and I can see that the staff were all busy doing something work related. Our waiter was attentive and although his English was limited , he still made an attempt. The food was good- Bandeja de Paisa never disappoints. I like how this dish is consistent whether I eat it at their Hackensack location or Englewood location. For the first time I tried their calamari. It was good and I like the sweet chili sauce (an homage to my Asian routes haha). Overall a good place to eat!“

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

“Soy peruano y fui a desayunar con un amigo Humberto Perea , la comida muy buena igual que la atencion . El ambiente es muy bueno y sobre todo muy buena musica .“

“I’ve been going to this place for about 2 years now (I box at a gym nearby hence why I go so often). I come here about two to four times a week. The food is pretty cheap especially for its quality. I usually get the Yuca empanadas, beef empanadas, or chicken empanadas. Dessert wise I usually get the Tiramisu or brownies. I can say without a doubt it is one of the best places I’ve ever ate at. The workers are very friendly. Most of the workers know both Spanish and English too which is very helpful. There are plenty of places to sit and eat and it has a very welcoming atmosphere. They’re always playing music (at the perfect volume never to loud never to quiet). The food always comes out quick too.

Dietary restrictions: I know both the beef empanadas and chicken empanadas (and I’m pretty sure the Yucas) are all gluten free which has come in handy when I catered for a party once.“

“Súper pan!! Fresco, Empanadas, pasteles, buñuelos, pan coco y café rico☕“

“Excelente comida y atención!“

“Went on a Tuesday night. There's limited parking in the back but being on a corner, the access is uncomplicated. Plenty of outdoor seating, however not available on this night. Inside was comfortable and relaxing. I imagine it can get lively towards the weekend.
I ordered the whole fried snapper with salad, rice and beans. Excellent. Not overcooked, the fish was juicy and crispy, the way it should be.
Would definitely order again.“

“Everything was delicious and great service“

“I go to the place frequently, it is good, good food and excellent service. I can't give it 5 stars for two fundamental reasons, the first is a suggestion, don't order a tray paisa because it doesn't have arepa or avocado, avocado is fine, but without arepa it's unforgivable and it's not that it's a spectacular dish, better try others things that are very good. The second is that the parking lot is a nightmare, I would like to go more often but unfortunately when we go and there is nowhere to park we have to leave, we don't live nearby so if you can it is better to walk, for us it is impossible, we have lost the trip there just because we can't park. I recommend the place with complete confidence.“

“If you want to live the experience of a “corrientazo” restaurant in NJ, this is the place! Typical Colombian flavor. The roasts and soups are SPECTACULAR! Warm attention from Sandra and Marcela. Excellent prices
OPPORTUNITY FOR IMPROVEMENT: the space is very small and fills up quickly“

“Recommended NEW latín restaurant in Paterson.... keep going guys !!!“

“siempre voy a comer pan de bono y otras cosidas me dan un trato de rey aveces no tengo mucho dinero y como quiera me dan el mismo trato excelente yo chicharrón los recomiendo al 100xciento“

“The flavors are like those of Barranquilla, it is evident that the tartar sauce and the pineapple sauce are made by themselves.
We were a group and we ordered a little from everyone.
And all very good, top ingredients.
I would drive whatever it took to get back.“
