“Ariel the manager is amazing Excellent food and great atmosphere nest of bergen county!“

“Authentic as it can be. The food is excellent. The music was awesome and service was good. It was a little hot but the mojitos made up for it“

“Our server Albert L was amazing. We went there for a birthday and he provided us with an amazing experience and made the birthday girl and the entire party feel special. If you get him as a server you are sure to have a beautiful experience and if the experience wasn’t enough the food and atmosphere were just as amazing.“

“Authentic, good food . This was our first visit and won’t be the last!“

“I recommend it to you. My favorite is the churrasco and a glass of Portuguese wine. There is a variety. To spend a pleasant time with family or as a couple. The customer service is good… 🥩🍷. te lo recomiendo mi favorito el churrasco y una copa de vino portugues hay variedad. para pasar un rato agradable en familia o en pareja. la atencion al cliente buena … y para soprender a un cumpleañero perfeto🍷“

“it was ok .. i.have to say that the order we got had a funny smell as if it been reheates. el moro cubano dont taste or smell like that“

“This was my first visit here. (I previously have had delivery on a couple of occasions and the food was very good.) Despite being a little early for our reservations and the place being very busy, we were seated immediately at the outdoor table I had requested in the reservations. The cocktails didn't take that long to be brought and were very good. The fried calamari appetizer (tapas) was outstanding- each piece perfectly crispy and not one piece was chewy. The sweet chili sauce worked very well with a mild heat in the middle of the tongue surrounded by sweetness. My wife enjoyed the jamon croquettas despite it lacking any sort of aioli or dipping sauce. My main dish of the deep fried Red Snapper was perfectly crisp on the outside, moist and tender inside and all around tasty. My wife enjoyed her fired cheese mofongo. Dessert of guava cheesecake and also the flan were good as well. Overall, service was good and the maitre d' walks around checking in on guests which is a nice touch. Overall, I thought the prices were very reasonable and you get nice size portions making it a good value. Just be aware that inside is fairly large and can get loud. Their windows are thick and outside you only really hear it when the door opens. Considering we live across the street and stare at the place from our windows, we'll be back, likely often.“

“Good food, atmosphere, and drinks. Their empanada were very good, I like their spicy sauce, but if you are a bit more timid, mix the spicy with the mild for a great spice with a kick.“

“I drive a lot for work and I’m constantly looking for nice wam plate of food! Usually I order to go! When I walked in the place is so cute that I thought it might be allowed to order and go! I was greeted nicely and they had no issues with my request! I paid around what I pay at other places for ox tails. I asked for it to be with Moro. My food came out with Moro on the side, beans, and white rice and the ox tails! But also, added plantain chips, and two cookies! I thought that was a great little gift! I’ll be back to dine here again“

“absolutely delicious 😋 food, anything they cook is amazing.“

“Great experience here! Would recommend. :)“

“Small corner store w some seating. Their Cuban sandwich is fantastic, especially with sausage. Love the steak sandwich as well super simple but everything just works so well together to create a great sandwich. By the way their coffee is excellent as well“

“Recomiendo todo. la comida muy deliciosa y la atención excelente. Nos saludan como parte de su familia , yo me siento muy satisfecha en todos los aspectos, excelente atención , el lugar muy acogedor y limpio. Lo recomiendo‼️👍🏻“

“We came to The Cuban in Union City to celebrate my stepfather’s birthday, and everything about the experience was amazing! Our server, Asiria, was absolutely wonderful — warm, attentive, and thoughtful with every little detail. She really made us feel welcome.

The team even surprised us with a birthday song and a flan, which was such a sweet and memorable touch! The food and drinks were absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was vibrant with great music playing in the background.

We had such a great time and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!“

“Love this place , been going for years
-The food very good (try the mojito)
-The staff very respectful and clean (they are always cleaning & I love it)
-Expensive ? Tbh NO (is one of the cheapest places I’ve went) Ive taken my 3 kids, my mom and I and my bill wont make it to 150.
Can get packed on weekends I prefer to call and get an estimate wait time.
You can enjoy a nice drink by yourself at the bar or eat with family ether or I believe you will leave with a good experience“

“I gave Kuba 3 stars overall: My husband and friends thought their paella was very good, but my rabo encendido was disappointing. Not particularly flavorful. One large bone, three little bones, no vegetables at all. The live music was very loud, which some people probably loved, but it made it impossible to talk to my friends or hear the server.“

“I know it’s been around but still a favorite ❤️Very trendy & modern. It’s valet service to the ambiance to the food music wait and drinks services. Pricey but worth it..we enjoyed paying for this level of service....The woman that manages the beautiful bathroom got my tip lol.Ty..so beautiful“

“Great food and great service. The food reminds me of home and is reasonably priced. We keep coming back for the ox tail stew, ribs, beef steak, porkchops, dumplings and the boneless chicharonnes de pollo. Most meals are served with white or yellow rice and beans or vegetables. If you want to try something different, they have the beef liver and squid ink fried rice which remind me of squid ink Paella. The combination meals are a great option to try out different dishes. The staff and owners always greet you with a warm welcome.“

“Nice eating experience!! This is truly a wonderful experience, super friendly and family oriented place“

“Everything is delicious!❤️“

“Everything was wonderful from the ambience , food and service . Celebrated my birthday with my family !! We all enjoyed every morsel. Thank you for all.“

“Hace poco hice un pedido para un evento social familiar por un valor de $540 pero decidí pagar con mi tarjeta de crédito, obviamente me cobran el impuesto tax 6.625% de venta, sin embargo, tuvieron el descaro de cobrarme un 2.9% adicional por el uso de la tarjeta de crédito. Cuando les pregunté, me dijeron que había un cajero (ATM) automático que podía usar, por lo tanto si lo pagaría en efectivo y solo pagaría $ 540. Parece obvio que están tratando de estafar el impuesto sobre las ventas del gobierno. en cualquier caso, la comida no era tan buena y nunca volveré a ellos. Buen trabajo para estafar a los clientes pidiéndoles efectivo en lugar de pagar una factura de tarjeta de crédito.“

“Gilberto’s is a historical staple in the North Bergen Community, proudly serving upper North Bergen with traditional hispanic dishes.

The menu consists of daily meals (ex: “we serve pot roast and pork on monday for this meal and beef next day”) along side some everyday general options.

This “cafeteria” really is so small and downscale, so dont expect complete upscale food, but you do have a warm cozy hispanic spot. There is a language barrier between English and Spanish but I personally didnt need to worry about it ymmv

Options include soups, some meats, some carb options (tostones, bean, rice) and some veggies.

Food is cheap, but there is a $10 card minimum.“

“Every dish is delish! Try for yourself and you will see. I normally don’t do reviews but this place deserves it“

“Very nice place. Very good people and the food delicious ?

Kid-friendliness: Have good for kids. And the special chair for them

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair access. Inside is not to much space for the mobility of them.“

“Family friendly atmosphere“

“The food was extremely flavorful and delicious. If I am back in NJ I will come back for sure.
As a vegetarian I got served a meal that had meat in it. It was a large order so I don't fully fault them. I'm sure if I had ordered on my own they would have said something.

Vegetarian options: Not much for vegetarians and my rice ended up having meat in it. It was a large order so I don't fully blame them“

“The food is good and is priced right. good portions at a very affordable price. I moved away from the area 2+ years ago and back then the decor was pretty bad, don't know if they put some work into that, I sure hope so.“

“The food was great. I got the classic Cuban sandwich and fries. The sandwich was a little smaller than I expected. The fries were excellent . The staff was fun to watch cause the were so busy , they were working together in unison and picking up each others slack when needed. The price for 2 Cubans and fries and a coke was around $30. Pretty typical of NYC.“

“I found this place through instagram and went in person had the sweet chilli wings and two empanadas, amazing! Loved it. Not a fan of the yuca fries they were a bit on the dry side but its always a hit or miss when it comes to Yuca / Yuca fries. The atmosphere was amazing, super clean place seems like a small family business loved seeing that. Truly recommend.“

“Great place to enjoy food with co-workers, friends and family, profesional and friendly service, they have live music, went with my gilr friends this past saturday and had a very good time, can't wait to go back, congrats to the whole staff!!!!“

“Family friendly atmosphere“

“Everything there is good the ppl that works once you go there like I do are like family ,the food is amazing,l over everything....“

“Owner is so sweet and workers are attentive even when busy. I am happy to say they take their time with their food, and provide excellent service. I did not mind waiting because scenery and weather was great as they provide seating in front the place.
Highly recommend!
My favorite spot“

“Deliciosa comida y excelente atención“

“This place is great! I prefer to come here than noches de Colombia. There prices are far better and you can order a baby churrasco with rice and beans and yucca for 12$ so yes visit. The big churrasco for two is 24$ a steal! They also have 7$ plates that are comforting and filling. Support your local businesses. Visit these folks good hard working people“

“This is a family favorite! Since the food is fresh and very cheap compare to today’s prices within other restaurants around the same area. It could be better flavored, but they have their own seasoning. My favorite dish would have to be the Mangu with eggs, cheese and salami for breakfast. Cannot for get their oatmeal drink& hot chocolate.

Kid-friendliness: You can bring your kids and eat with family if that’s your preference. They do have kids seats.“

“Everything was GOOD! Professional, friendly service and mmmm the guava & cheese empanada ❤️❤️❤️ Delicious fresh squeezed juices and all the Cuban favorites on the menu. Great atmosphere in the kitchen and dining room too. Highly recommend.“

“The Tortillas with Cafe con leche. Great people that work there. They are very nice to you. Love it 😊“
