“The decor at this morsel of Costa Rican culture is aesthetically pleasing and if you’re in the area, this is one of the better Tico spots. We watched Costa Rica beat Paraguay in a Copa America game while eating pupusas, un Casado and Tacos Ticos and totally hit the spot. Especially since they served some salsa Lizano on the side.“

I recommend you visit the place when you can.“

“buena atención y menú bariado“

“The $12 daily lunch special is a fantastic deal! According to my waiter they are under new management as of last week. I was in town, visiting from Morris County to see the nearby Labor Museum. I loved the rice, chicken, and plantain most, they were delicious. Please be cautious however because there is a 15% tip automatically applied, and they do offer a lot of extras like drinks and stuff to see if you're interested. Nevertheless I really enjoyed the place. I think would make a good first date type restaurant, or out with the family, and I felt comforrable eating alone at the bar. Although it was empty when I came on a Saturday afternoon.

Kid-friendliness: If I recall correctly, there was a kids' part of the menu.“

“Everything on the menu is delicious! The service is fast and staff is amazing. My children love their empanadas! It’s cozy, welcoming and relaxing ambiance…“

“Good barbecue chicken. I really liked the green sauce they serve on the side made with jalapeño peppers.The french fries were reheated I think but sweet plantains were good . Simple salad with only one dressing on the side . We ordered to pick up because delivery fee was $10.00 .“

“Tienen que visitar este gran y majestuoso restaurante lo bien que se come!!“

“We recently ordered through Uber Eats and were so impressed, we can’t wait to visit in person!

My husband was craving mofongo and fried fish. We tried the mofongo de chicharrón, which was absolutely amazing, and the mofongo de camarones, which we felt was a bit less flavorful.

My husband mentioned that the shrimp wasn’t mashed into the mofongo, which was a bit different from what he’s used to.

Personally, I love my mofongo with mashed pork and the protein on top, and I thought the mofongo tasted fantastic. The fried fish was also a highlight—well-cleaned, perfectly seasoned, and delicious. We were pleasantly surprised by how good everything was, especially since it had traveled 30 minutes to get to us. Can’t wait to try it fresh in the restaurant! Highly recommend!“

“good food drinks great prices“

“I should’ve asked prior to ordering the chicken chunks if it were made with chicken breast or dark meat. Unfortunately I thought it was the usual white meat but I was wrong. Other than that the quantity was well served and the food was good. There are certain items that require a few minutes to make out of the menu. The service was well and the location was clean. They have a few outdoor tables.“

“Una baina bien a otro nivel“

“love love , Nothing but Family .....“

“Muy buena la comida muy recomendado y las personas que trabajan son muy amables“

“Not 100% sure what style of food this is but it was delicious. The service is great and the staff friendly. I dropped in for a sandwich as I thought it was a deli but found that there was a staff-served buffet offering. The choice I made was white rice, yuca, and broiled chicken thighs. The aluminum container was jam packed with food. Enough for two meals. $14 with a large bottle of water. I took the dish to go.

I will definitely go back and try other dishes now that I understand how this place works and the food style offered.

It is Latino food but I don't know if it is Dominican/Puerto Rican or something else but it was very tasty!“

“Definitely recommend checking out this place! Booked a reservation for Tuesday night just in case it was packed. Arrived, and was glad that I made the reservation. This place was PACKED, which is a good sign if it's a packed house on a random, rainy, Tuesday night.“

“I don't go anywhere else for spanish food, the food here is delicious. I take the 25mins drive to be there for this food. The employees are beyond happy and helpful in everyway possible. I tell everyone about this place because it's a small place but the food is big!!“

“excelente comida y atencion“

“I decided to try this place out early Saturday afternoon. It was fairly packed. I got 3 beef empanadas and tried to get 1 guayaba one but I think they ran out. The lady gave me a crab one instead. It was probably mixed in somewhere next to the Guayaba one. I didn't mind - it was also good. Parking may pose a challenge if you plan on trying them out.“

“Oh boy, hold onto your forks, folks, because I just had the most mind-boggling experience with the Friends Of The Chef weight loss meal prep program! I mean, seriously, my taste buds are in shock while my scale did a whole celebration.First off, let's talk about the weight loss wizardry that happened here. I signed up for delivery on Friday for Sunday, started chowing down on these remixes of my childhood favorites, and BAM! In just four days, I've dropped 4.4 lbs.! I'm over here calculating whether I've actually lost weight or my bathroom scale is just pranking me. Is this sorcery or just some culinary version of a magic show?Now, let's chat about these remixes, shall we? It's like the chef took my beloved comfort foods from back in the day and gave them a snazzy makeover. I'm talking about food glow-ups that would make Cinderella jealous. Tres golpes? Transformed into a low-calorie sensation that tastes like a symphony of flavor explosions. La bandera? It's like the chicken went to culinary school and graduated with honors in being healthier but still lip-smackingly delicious.And the taste, oh dear taste buds, they're doing a conga line of joy! It's like a flavor party in my mouth and everyone's invited. I'm tempted to put on some dancing shoes and do the cha-cha just to express my taste bud's enthusiasm. The taste is so spot-on, I'm half-convinced my abuela must've been secretly hired as a consultant because it's like a teleportation device to my childhood dinner table. It's like they bottled up the nostalgia and sprinkled it on every dish. Seriously, if a meal can induce time-travel-like nostalgia, this is it.But wait, there's more! I'm practically counting the seconds till I can place my order for next week's meals. I'm on the edge of my seat like it's a cliffhanger episode of my favorite TV show. Who needs suspenseful dramas when you've got meal prep excitement?So there you have it, folks. Friends Of The Chef's weight loss meal prep program is the real deal – a journey of flavors, weight loss surprises, and an abuela-approved trip down memory lane. If you're into losing weight while feeling like you're being serenaded by a taste symphony that's straight out of your childhood dreams, this is the meal plan for you. Just remember, this isn't just a meal plan; it's a culinary carnival for your taste buds and a scale shrinker in disguise.“

“Home-cooked meal and just like at home service! Have been stopping here occasionally on my drive home to satisfy my dominican cravings or when i’m too tired to cook. The food is great and the selection allows for something for each of my picky family members ! Not only is the food delicious and the service oh so friendly, but it is definitely priced right ! Sure to please, Master Kitchen is worth your while.“

“Ordered a "Casado with Churrasco"The steak was cooked to perfection. Had this with a Russian salad. Nice portion and perfectly seasoned. Thought maybe it was a fluke so went back a second time. Everything was the same...perfect...again. It is an unassuming hole in the wall but wow. Can't wait to try more of the menu though I will be getting that again.“

“lo mejor de lo mejor cocinan buenísimo“

The service is deeply fast. Not to mention, the food you get is first-rate. I ate there many times and I was always pleased. The price is reasobable.

“It was my first time trying a chimi sandwich and I was impressed it is basically a Dominican burger with coleslaw. The chimi is well seasoned and toasted to perfection. The chicharron Mofongo was really bad however. It was dry and greasy. I really liked the chimi but the Mofongo is not good at all.“

“it's was great nos encanto la comido“

“I ordered catering dessert empanadas to the office and not only were the empanadas delicious and a HUGE hit at the office, the way they labeled the flavors according to how they were placed inside the box (i think there was 4blueberry and 1 mango and they even labelled 1 mango because there was one on the right, anyway) made it so easy for me!“

“Every time I come, it's smiling faces and pleasant service. Prices are good and I "talk" with other patrons, though we don't understand each other. One of my go to spots when neither I or my wife feel like cooking“

“Ordered the Cuban Sandwich! Delicious! Can’t wait to try other menu items!!“
