The food amazing (we had a chipotle chicken, a Philly cheesesteak, and a pulled pork empanada; in addition yellow rice and black bean and a cherry empanada for desert). Would recommend this restaurant 100%. Open on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday it’s truly a treat for the tastebuds.“

“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“

“Excited to eat at Mi Familia Restaurant. The food is Authentic and flavorful! I've been coming here for so many years. As you walk in your are greeted immediately, the staff are very attentive. I was there last week ordered white rice with beans oxtail and barbeque pork spare ribs. Food was delicious!!! Not to mention this is where I get my churrasco (skirt steak) with tostones and freshly squeeze orange juice. Stop by Mi Familia Restaurant and enjoy some Dominican Soul Food!!“

“The chicharones at this location is absolutely the best around the area. My first time there they made sure I was well taken care of. They even went above and beyond by cooking new pieces of pork for me so that they can be fresh. The pieces of pork was just right with the right amount of meat and fat. Usually places I’ve tried had so much fat that I don’t get to enjoy the chicharones but not this location.“

“Enjoyed the many different Tapas we tried out 😋“

“Great food and amazing coffee“

“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 love their food I highly recommended“

“Buena comida latina“

“todo pero me fascina el pargo frito con tostones y ensalada“

“Second time ordering lechona from La Victoria. We hosted family visiting from Colombia and they were all very impressed by the portion size, crispy skin, and how delicious it was. La Victoria was very accommodating with a last minute change of plans and was very helpful and generous with preparation suggestions and follow up. We will certainly be ordering from them again. Muchas Gracias!“

“I'm passing by here to invite you to this place, the best food in Pasaia, something like yours, everything is clean and tidy, the owner is very considerate, I like the atmosphere, all the food is good, she is a very professional chef, she makes a difference in her dishes and something like her home, I love you!?❤️?“

“Don Pepe never disappoints! Their food is absolutely amazing, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and service you receive. I ordered a calamari to go, and the bartender (a super friendly guy) was fantastic. He was incredibly nice and even threw in a huge piece of bread—easily 10 inches long! Definitely enough for leftovers, which was a nice surprise. The little details like this make the experience even better. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Food is amazing you want good Dominican food this is the place.“

“Forever my favorite Dominican spot since childhood

*My fam loved their pernil, moro de guandules and empanadas 🤤
*I think is the best one in town 🤫

“Buena comida ? y buenas atenciones ?“

“Venir de 🇵🇷 a NJ y no visitar La Patrona Restaurante NO LA HACE. ❤❤👏🏻👏🏻❤❤“

“I love ordering from here on weekends! They have a solid account with the eat24 app, which makes ordering really easy. My favorite dish is the pernil (roasted pork), but the res guisada (beef stew) is also delicious. The food is just as good as homemade. Oh, and that banana shake!!. Delicious.“

“It actually met my food expectations and when I entered it made me feel at home, especially because of my Chapina people at heart. The only thing I didn't like and this goes to the owner, we ordered some chuchitos and with a plastic fork, the soft drinks in plastic and with a plastic straw, please compatriots, let's cut down on plastic, we are not comfortable and even less lazy, let's help the planet and Reduce plastic, it helps the restaurant look a little taller and more sustainable.“

“I love rice and beans good portions I got with beef real beef unlike Chinese joints the price point right now for me fantastic I will definitely be a regular I mean come on real food price on point compared to fast food joints same and it's delicious 😋 👌“

“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!“

“When we lived nearby, my family and I would frequently visit this eatery. We now make an effort to visit this restaurant at least once when we are all in New Jersey. The cuisine is classic Dominican goodness. I love the stew chicken, roast chicken, ribs, chicken and pigeon peas and red beans. All are delicious. My Mom loves the octopus salad.“

“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.“

“The food here is amazing and the price is decent. My favorite is the soup and the fried fish. There is not much parking outside because it’s on the avenue. There is space to eat inside for a small group of 4. The service in taking orders could be better, sometimes the server takes long to get the food out to customers even if you called ahead of time.“

“I come to this spot at least once a week. I wish more people knew about this place. It’s such a hidden gem and the food is amazing. I recently got obsessed with Poké bowls out of nowhere and was looking for a place in New Jersey that did them and I found this one Rutherford. The owner is super nice and hands-on and is always trying to make that atmosphere feel super welcoming. They also have some really cool snack snacks and drink drinks here other than the Poké bowls definitely would recommend.“

“This place is MY GOOOOO TOOO if I’m feeling Peruvian food, always made with LOVEEE, I’ve gotten many different things but everything no matter what you choose is amazing ! I’m obsessed every time does not disappoint! As u can probably tell from the picture I couldn’t even wait to eat I had to take a few nibbles in the car it was smelling too inviting lmaooo ♥️“

“We love ordering from here! Great service, good food and affordable! Large portions!“

“Fast, efficient bc you order on a kiosk, fresh, not salty, tasty, and close to the train station across the street in fact. It’s about $3 per taco for vegetarian tacos without tax so it’s reasonable. I paid about $15.50 total with tax for 4 tacos so it was enough food for a hungry dinner. No place to sit so take out only. And they double up the tortilla so you can have some extra and put in your own stuff.“

“Y son had cachapa with a friend about 2 weeks ago and has been raving ever. We finally went with him on Saturday and returned on Sunday. We ordered cachapas, Chimi, yaroa and monfonguitos. All were good I would say the portions are big for 1 person small for 2. The juices were good as well.“

“Food was good! Service was great, thank you Juan Camilo! We'll come back.“
