Restaurants in Union City

“I love brunch and dinner at Fork hill! At brunch they have the best pancakes and corn bread and dinner is always relaxing and welcoming with the owner coming by to check in on every table. Truly a cozy experience”

“Loved this place. Cute little surprise in my neighborhood. Place was small but very charming. Staff was very accommodating, attentive and quick. Food looked and tasted amazing. Very flavorful. The icing on the cake was the music as they happened to play my type of alternative bands. This is definitely a 5 star spot ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Incredible quality food, great personable service, friendly atmosphere all for an extremely affordable price. If you live in Union City, you’ve GOT to eat at Summit Pizza Cafe!”

“Excellent restaurant serving a variety of Mexican and Mexican-inspired dishes, and some Sinaloan options like aguachile. It's hard to go wrong with any of the guacamoles, starters, or tacos. The aguachile and ceviches we've tried have been good. Was pleasantly surprised by their cocktails. Particularly like the Fridita and the Paloma. The couple that runs the restaurant is very kind. Nice ambiance too”

“Super friendly and pastries are delicious!”

“I stumbled upon this inviting hidden spot on my way to work, and I'm so glad I did! The incredible smell of bacon coming from this cozy café was impossible to resist. As I stepped inside, I was warmly greeted by the staff and immediately felt at home.

The atmosphere is inviting and intimate, with a lovely corner dedicated to instruments which I discovered they host live music events on Saturdays.

I ordered the bacon egg and cheese sandwich, and it was nothing short of delicious.

I highly recommend this charming café to anyone looking for a warm and welcoming spot with outstanding food. I'll definitely be back!”

“Amazing food, very clean environment. Great staff. Beyond reasonable prices!!!! Strongly recommend.”

“We visited on vacation and was definitely worth the walk. Wonderful pastries, super friendly staff and delicious coffee! I did take out for the family, breakfast sandwiches they come on 3 diff kinds of bread options made fresh there. Fresh juices are available and lots of customization options. Easy to get double egg, turkey, ham or bacon. The go to breakfast sport. Wish I had one back home. Omelots also available as a bonus. Very reasonably priced and great mineral water options in the fridge.”

“We bought a little of everything because everything looked so good and fresh. Food was hot and delicious and the staff was amazingly friendly too. Happy to have a great local place that serves healthy food with a smile. We will be back.”

“Without a doubt the best taco’s I’ve ever had! Cute neighborhood establishment. Really nice staff! Thank you! 🌮🌮🌮🌮❤️”

The food was delicious, the wine was superb and the service was phenomenal...our server, Mike was great, he went out of his way to make sure that we felt welcomed and ensured that we had an enjoyable dining experience! I told my daughter Ashley about this outstanding Cuban Restaurant and she can't wait to dine there! I highly recommend, The Cuban Restaurant...it is the Gem of Union City New Jersey!?”

“great pupusas delicious shakes”

“All fresh and delicious good price too 👍👍”

“Generous portions not stingy with the proteins and quick delivery. Best place in the area and have been for a while. We've been saying it's really good lately every time we order. 4.5 stars”

“Popped in for some food after hitting the pool - everything was so fresh. I got the fritura and was blessed with a massive portion of fried, fresh, incredible meats, cheese, and plantains. The chicken was so moist and juicy, the chicharron was deeply flavorful and had me floored; truly so fresh, tasted like a mama made it for me. My partner got the pernil and it was also incredible. 10/10!!!”

“muy buena comida y muy barato buen sazon”

“Fast service and careful attention..
A small place, where you find nostalgia for Cuban food.
Special my palomilla steak, and the old clothes...
Good pretty and cheap...
A place to return to..”

“The lady gave me a complimentary lemonade with my order. This food is incredibly. They have the best tres leeches cake in all of new jersey BY far. The cheesesteak is absolutely phenomenal. I'm so mad I stopped by and tried this place because now its all I think about! Excellent customer service as well!”

“A must stop when we visit the area. Delicious!❤”

“I had dinner with my family and it was fantastic; the food was great, but the service was exceptional. Manuela was our server, and her attentiveness to our needs was truly impressive. Highly recommend this place for its excellent food and service!”

“Food is not bad, I recommend to pay with cash since majority of businesses on bergenline have a high credit card fee on purchases. Other than that the restaurant is ok

Parking: There’s a parking lot on 39th street close to bergenline ave. I recommend to park there if struggling parking”

I also tried the corviches and they had a lot of fish inside, also delicious!
Recommended”

“I love this outlet! No matter who is making your sandwich they always are super attentive. I am a repeat customer since 2 years and they even make better sandwiches on doordash deliveries if you request something extra. Kudos the outlet owner and their team!”

“I brought my family here on Valentine’s Day, as I remembered that they decorate the restaurant and offer special deals. My 5 and 7 year old loved the atmosphere and the service we received was second to none. Our family enjoyed the food that was prepared quickly, as we sat at our reserved booth. The restaurant was tastefully decorated for Valentine's Day, with themed tablecloths, candles and special menus for the event. The owner and staff were pleasant and politely accommodated our food order requests. This location in particular is a must to dine in and experience the charm of the oldest burger franchise! We will definitively return and happily give them our business again.”

“One of the best bakeries on the East Coast! The owner is super friendly and really nice! Try their delicious and fluffy authentic tsoureki—you won't be disappointed. Thank you so much Liberty Pastries! 💙🇬🇷”

“Love this place, looks like it was lifted from Brooklyn and placed in this corner. It’s cozy and very eclectic, uniquely furnished, has a bunch of tiny unique items scattered through the space for sale, like candles, flower vases, other small decorative item. More importantly they have a menu with a variety of beverages and pastries and I believe sandwiches (not quite sure if I saw sandwiches on the menu but definitely a variety of pastries). This is going to be my new goto spot”

“I'm originally from Brooklyn so I know good pizza when I eat it. I live in Jersey City Heights now and I travel to this pizzeria because it's the closest to new York pizza around. The food is excellent here and the place is small but very clean. I'll walk 2 miles to get pizza here before any other place. You won't be disappointed.”

“The food was super hot (temperature wise) and well seasoned, spice levels on point (but can request + - spice) The prices are really reasonable when picking up. Definitely recommend. Super nice service and quick food. We should be patronizing restaurants like these, independently owned by hard working people. Will definitely add this to my list of regular places to eat at/takeout.”

“Extremely attentive cashier, and taco stand inside feel. But what blew my mind was the ceviche tostados!! So fresh, big portion. And for a very value affordable price. Amazing.”

“I had breakfast at this cafe today and it was a great experience overall. We ordered breakfast along with fresh orange juice. The juice was freshly squeezed and tasted delicious, just like the food. The man at the counter was very friendly and also spoke English, which was helpful. The decoration of the place is also lovely.
The only downside was that the tables could have been a bit cleaner.”

“The bowl was excellent and exceeded my expectations. The cashier at the front named Alex made sure that I got the best bowl and service. I can honestly say I’ll be coming here again. Amazing flavors and amazing staff.”

“The service here is always outstanding—friendly, attentive, and professional every time I visit. The staff truly makes you feel welcomed and taken care of. The food is just as impressive: consistently fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Whether you’re coming for a quick bite or a full meal, the quality never disappoints. It’s clear they take pride in both their service and their dishes, which keeps me coming back. Highly recommend!”

“The service…the feel…the food… best for last… this is the spot…from a true pizza snob… I couldn’t love this spot more. I asked for thin crust well done and it’s exactly what I received. It’s an old school feel with great food. Definitely recommend!!”

“Their home-made hot foods are amazing as well as their sandwhiches and prices. It is closer than Hoboken for me as well! Been a fan favorite for years 🤩”

“Excellent place, the attention of the Salvadoran lady 100/10 Friendly, attentive
the quiet comfortable environment
Enjoy a delicious grilled chicken, the place is highly recommended. The prices are quite comfortable. Until my birthday I celebrate with some beers...I would return without thinking about it”

“What an epic place. We drove over while visiting Hoboken and it was worth the trip. Super friendly staff, clean restaurant, large TV’s to watch the game- and the pizza was perfect! Thank you very much for the swag for my DePalma friends. We will be back soon. DePalma’s pizzeria enjoys my strongest recommendation. A+++”

“All the food is delicious, very good and they are very friendly, the bad thing is that the place is small and not very familiar to eat there, it is very noisy

Kid-friendliness: The place is small and next door it has a small bar and personally I think they are very noisy, I don't like to eat there.”

“Good morning, very good place, serious and respectful staff, good dive, good prices, good music, but I suggest as a way of improvement, and as constructive criticism, that you please change the floor of the court, since your shoes stick when They are dancing and could cause a knee injury to one of their clients. I say this because several people who were there agreed on the same thing about the dance floor. Thank you”

“I love this place! I came here on the way to New York and I don't regret it. there are a variety of flavors, the worker was nice and let me try flavors, the mango is a must! prices are reasonable (less than what you can get at an ice cream truck) and the work environment clean. I will be stopping on my way back!!”

“Everything is delicious!❤️”

The staff is friendly, helpful, and they always make you feel welcome. Whether you're grabbing a quick snack or need some household essentials, this store has you covered. Highly recommend stopping by for a convenient and pleasant shopping experience!”

“Changing my review HORRENDOUS service! Rude beyond comprehension cause lately the lady in the phone has an attitude the man who brings the food smells like cigarettes cause he’s always smoking I’m guessing she’s the wife her attitude is not professional I No longer order from them PANDA HOUSE 17st bergenline the best people are very nice on the phone and there very professional”

Every bite was a burst of savory goodness, making it a memorable and must-try treat for anyone seeking an exceptional empanada.

Vegetarian options: Cheese all day! Plenty of options for vegetarians.

Kid-friendliness: Some of the nicest people in the world run this store. They are friendly and what kid DOESN’T like empanadas????!!!!!”

“english and spanish at bottom review bottom if you're from el salvador youll get bad to mediocre service. they rather serve people with different ethnicityThe people in this establishment were extremely rude. My familyy came in and ordered and everyone around us got served before us after she heard us, mind you our waiter there telling his side they arrived after us.55 minutes later, ( we ordered 14 pupusas amd 1 soup.) table in front and behind a party of 8 people each received their rice steaks, seafood appetizers. When we asked the waiter about it, he came off extremely rude arguing trying to prove he’s right that and we’re in the wrong…he said the others came after but ordered first before us… not right! in reality all he had to do was apologize for the wait and find out how long till food comes out. he had a face like miserable…. he wasn’t happy working there, and the manager, an older blonde lady, didn’t even offer an apology. while talking to her our server was there too again being a lawyer. the lady really seemed she wasn’t interested in us since place was busy due to salvadorian parade. She just said to pay for our drinks and leave. What a disaster. Bathroom not as clean when they’re busy. toilet had splatters of crap on sear and floor was slippery. also some air freshener wouldn’t hurt. Place is tight space and dark. there are stairs inside to dining room and 16 steps downstairs to go to restroom. so if you’re in a wheelchair, good luck. place doesn’t look like its up to code. atmosphere is not that friendly and dark not enough lighting. mirrors are dirty in dining room. Food no chance to eat. Si eres de el salvador tendrás un servicio de malo a mediocre. Prefieren atender a personas de diferentes etnias. La gente de este establecimiento fue extremadamente grosera. Mi familia entró y ordenó y todos los que nos rodeaban fueron atendidos antes que nosotros después de que ella nos escuchó, tenga en cuenta que nuestro camarero le dijo a su lado que llegaron después de nosotros. 55 minutos después (pedimos 14 pupusas y 1 sopa), mesa al frente y detrás un grupo de 8 personas recibió cada uno sus filetes de arroz, aperitivos de mariscos. Cuando le preguntamos al camarero al respecto, se mostró extremadamente grosero argumentando que intentaba demostrar que tenía razón y que nosotros estábamos equivocados... dijo que los demás vinieron después pero ordenaron primero antes que nosotros... ¡no está bien! en realidad todo lo que tenía que hacer era disculparse por la espera y averiguar cuánto falta para que salga la comida. tenía una cara como miserable…. no estaba contento trabajando allí y la gerente, una señora rubia mayor, ni siquiera se disculpó. Mientras hablaba con ella, nuestro camarero también estaba allí como abogado. La señora realmente parecía que no estaba interesada en nosotros ya que el lugar estaba ocupado debido al desfile salvadoreño. Ella solo dijo que pagáramos nuestras bebidas y nos fuéramos. Qué desastre. El baño no está tan limpio cuando están ocupados. El inodoro tenía salpicaduras de basura y el piso estaba resbaladizo. Además, un poco de ambientador no vendría mal. El lugar es un espacio reducido y oscuro. Hay escaleras adentro que conducen al comedor y 16 escalones abajo para ir al baño. así que si estás en silla de ruedas, buena suerte. El lugar no parece cumplir con el código. El ambiente no es tan amigable y oscuro, no hay suficiente iluminación. Los espejos están sucios en el comedor. Comida sin posibilidad de comer.”

“Kevin digale al chef no poner mucha sal a las lentejas please.”

“Cubetazo is $33 and the margaritas at $16 in a plastic cup, too much. The music is fine.”

“my husband and I, has such a great time there I recommended LGBQTplus community. The owner welcomed us with open arms in a warm smile.”

“I had the best wings I’ve ever eaten yesterday at this place. What we ordered was the wings with the chipotle barbecue sauce. Absolutely scrumptious! Incredible balance of hot, sweet, and smoky flavors. as others have said, there is a short wait for this wonderfully prepared food. Run, don’t walk!”

“The bowl was excellent and exceeded my expectations. The cashier at the front named Alex made sure that I got the best bowl and service. I can honestly say I’ll be coming here again. Amazing flavors and amazing staff.”

“The best Dominican food is sold there and that I am Dominican and I still have no meal so good that it is. [Original] La mejor comida dominicana la venden ahi y ESO yo soy dominicana y todavia no eh provado una comida tan Buena que esta.”

“Incredible quality food, great personable service, friendly atmosphere all for an extremely affordable price. If you live in Union City, you’ve GOT to eat at Summit Pizza Cafe!”

“Came to ihop for our son's birthday breakfast and enjoyed ourselves. Our server was so hospitable, she always had refills for our drinks before we finished them and despite being very, very busy - she was still so polite and went out of her way to sing happy birthday to my son. The food was great and their specials were very well priced. The interior of the restaurant was worn down and a little dirty, it could definitely use some revamping.”

“Loved this place. Cute little surprise in my neighborhood. Place was small but very charming. Staff was very accommodating, attentive and quick. Food looked and tasted amazing. Very flavorful. The icing on the cake was the music as they happened to play my type of alternative bands. This is definitely a 5 star spot ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
