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

“Truly the greatest dining experience you can have in the area. The food is incredible, the atmosphere is so welcoming and inviting, you’ll never want to leave. If you get a chance, Monica is also the best part of the whole experience. She made our night a 10 out of 10 to 11. Might have to come on a weekly basis moving forward.“

“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“

“Reminds me of my grandmother’s cooking“

“Service was good in the beginning. Then after we were served the waiter didn't come back. We had to ask someone else for another drink. Then we had to wait for our check, at least 20 mins in between both drinks n check. Then the service charge was added which would be ok if the service was great. Just not happy with the service that's all! Every else was fine.“

“Had a phenomenal experience at this place. I came with my parents , and the service and food was exceptional ! We had the T bone steak and yuca frita .I had a waiter named Angelica and she took great care of us. Shout out Angelica fr 🙏🙏🙏 Can’t wait to go back ! I love this place.“

“The decor at Victors Cafe was absolutely stunning! I was pleasantly surprised by how beautiful and classy it felt, with a wonderful tropical vibe. Our waiter was truly phenomenal, constantly checking in on us and being incredibly attentive. And the food and desserts were simply amazing. I highly recommend paying a visit to Victors Cafe for an all-around fantastic experience!“

“Incredible Cubano, excellent frozen margarita 👍🏻“

“I ate at this restaurant during my Christmas vacation visit to New York. It is fantastic! The staff is friendly and welcoming. The food is so tasty. It was better than the big advertised restaurants. If you want a real delicious meal and some great music while you eat, go to this place. It's a hidden gem.“

“The food and service are excellent.“

“Always a good time at Havana Central. Good food, good drinks, good vibe. The servers are always pleasant. Thank you Natalia! This time I remembered my servers name. Lol But that's obvious. My cousin fly in to see a broadway show and of course I had to take her to Havana Central. I am still adjusting to the closure of the Havana Central location in Garden City. Would really love it if they would consider opening another location in the Queens, Long Island area.“

“Casa Cubana catered my husband's 40th birthday, and everything was fantastic! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Our guests couldn't stop talking about it. The team was professional, Diana & Mercedes were easy to work with, and helped make the party a success. Highly recommend for any event! FANTASTIC“

“😁rumba the food is excellent so fresh ...everything i ate was so good.. and the staff very professional and very caring to my needs.. I must say rumba has to be one of the best restaurants around ..great atmosphere“

“I've mixed feelings about this place. Everything was good except the food portions. The prices we paid for the amount of food was unacceptable. I ordered Chinese noodles with meat. There were more noodles than meat. I felt like I was fishing for it. It was like a spoon size on it. My friends ordered steak. The portion was smaller than a chicken breast.
Not sure if I would recommend this place. They're are other places that serve good food with good prices and better portions“

“I came to this restaurant for the first time on Saturday, and I completely fell in love with the food. Everything was absolutely delicious. It was so good that I went back again on Sunday brought my mother-in-law with me, and now today, Tuesday, I’m going back again — that’s how amazing it is.
I usually don’t like to only write reviews when something is bad, so I had to make sure I wrote one for this place because they truly deserve it. The food, the flavor, and the overall experience were just incredible.
I recommend this place 1000%. Definitely a must-try!“

“Reminds me of my grandmother’s cooking“

“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.“

“Came in for lunch after a very busy morning at work, and, if I'm being honest, with a minor hangover. Everything about this place fixed me right up. I felt like I went to lunch at my tia's. The ropa veja I got tasted exactly like the one I grew up eating. Comfort food and comforting vibes.“

“Good home cooked latino food ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 😊🥰“

“Service throughout the evening was top-tier. Even with a packed house, the staff operated seamlessly—beginning with a smooth arrival at valet, followed by a warm greeting from the host and attentive table service. The management presence was particularly impressive. A manager named Leo consistently checked in, promptly assisting with water refills and stepping in to ensure we had takeout containers packed up without any delay. Truly attentive hospitality.“

“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“

“Montuno is one of my favorite spots. I come here often with friends for the delicious Cuban cuisine and the incredible service. Adriana and Jacky are always attentive, genuinely kind, and consistently go above and beyond to make every visit special. They create such a warm and welcoming atmosphere that keeps us coming back. Highly recommended!“

“Kuba in Fort Lee is absolutely amazing! The food is delicious, the drinks are great, and the service is always on point. Everything we ordered was flavorful and fresh, and the staff made the whole experience even better. The atmosphere is beautiful and has such a great vibe too. Definitely one of my favorite spots in Fort Lee. Highly recommend! ❤“

“Great experience here! Would recommend. :)“

“Pablo and his amazing staff could not have produced a better more delicious lunch. Their friendly smiles, love for what they do and how they went out of their way to put smiles on my mom's face say's it all. We cannot wait to come back!“

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

“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‼️👍🏻“

“Had a great lunch today. The staff was very attentive. I had the cuban sandwich and my friend had the Ceasar Salad with Churasco. One of the managers, Jenny, came to check on our table and was very nice to us on top of our server being great. Definitely will be back again and again.“

“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.“

“A big shout out to my best latin place in Hoboken: Chango Kitchen. Traditional yummy latin dishes. Our faves are churrasco con chimichurri (skirt steakgrilled) and ropa vieja (shredded beef). My kids loved "alfajores with dulce de leche", "tres leches" and hot chocolate with when it's cold outside. Service is warm and friendly. We can visit the place multiple times and never get tired. #supportlocal“

“Excelente Servicios y Buen Ambiente“

“Good food, good menu and good waitress“

“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“

“First time at Tina's... you know this spot is legit when all the local construction workers eat there too😋😋😋“

“This restaurant has become my go-to recommendation. These employees show remarkable warmth and treat me like a regular. The food delivers flavor satisfaction and portion generosity. Tasty meals, fair costs and employees who really know their job. This place offers dependable satisfaction.“

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

“Everything is delicious!❤️“

“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“

“Everything is delicious!❤️“

“This place is one of the best places to have a healthy lunch in West New York. I am amazed that it doesn't have any review yet. I tried fish and also lunch specials twice out three times being there, I recommend fish and cow tail. A nice girl works there having very helpful attitude toward customers (unfortunately I don't remember her name but you will find her at lunch). You might have a little bit of problem communicating in english, but all of the times that I had lunch there, they prepared exactly what I meant. A meal size was more than enough for me and I am not skinny, unhealthy or anything. Did I mention the price? it is worth every penny.“

“Never had a bad meal in 24 years of living in Hoboken and eating at La Isla. One of the best!“

“Family friendly atmosphere“

“My meal at Sophie's Cuban Cuisine - Flatiron showed why people recommend it. The serving sizes here are enormous. Their service creates return customers. This spot maintains fashionable elements and tidiness. This spot earns exceptional recognition.“

“I was so excited to finally try Gilberto’s Cafeteria, especially because I came here to celebrate my 16th birthday! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was beautiful, warm, and welcoming, which made the whole experience feel even more special.

I ordered the Cuban sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and cooked perfectly. You could really taste the Cuban flavors, and it honestly exceeded my expectations. I recommend if this is your first time coming to defenitly try it.

What made the experience even better was the service. Everyone was so friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout our meal. It really felt like they cared about making our visit special. Being a small family owned business you can see the dedication they put into making their costumers happy which was so wholesome.

Overall, Gilberto’s Cafeteria was such a great choice for my birthday. Between the amazing food, beautiful atmosphere, and wonderful service, it made a special day even more memorable. I’m already looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu!“

“We were in NY for a couple of days, because our baby broke down, while they were doing the repairs the mechanics recommended this gem, excellent food, good atmosphere, friendly, helpful and cordial employees, we asked for a typical dish, they promised to make it up to date Next, we returned 2 days later and if they complied, they had the "Locrio de cerdo" dish. What a delight.The coffee has a strange taste, but it's not bad. The breads and croissants are delicious.The bathroom is small, but it allows you to freshen up ?The man in the kitchen is quite nice, and the lady at the front desk speaks very well, the site makes you feel comfortable. They let me stay for a while and it was great, because looking at a broken down truck is no fun.“

“Deliciosa comida y excelente atención“
