The total order was 2 lentil soups , 2 empanadas, 2 pasteles and 2 juice drinks which cost $48 . I think it's way overpriced .

All the workers were very polite. I had an Oxtail plate, served with a choice of rice and beans. I opted for White Rice and Black Beans. Since I was dining in, I was offered a small salad and a cup of chicken soup. It was a hot day, so I had a Passionfruit Slushy. The Oxtail was very tasty and the rice and beans were flavorful. The portion was sizeable. You get a great value for the price. I would definitely return, because there are many other dishes that I would like to try. It would also be great for a grab and go dinner. Very affordable, and you will be full and happy.

Sazon Latino, located on Main Street in Boonton just a few steps from the NJ Transit station, is…read moredefinitely a hidden gem. It's a very casual, cafeteria-style spot with a semi-open kitchen, but don't let the simplicity fool you -- the food is incredible and the staff here is friendly and patient. The highlight of the experience is the small buffet that features a variety of freshly-made Latin cuisine -- including pulled pork, chicken and beef stews, and other traditional Latin entrees and sides. You can build your own plate by selecting one or more entrees and sides - which are priced accordingly. As a 'gringo' who wasn't entirely sure what everything was, I really appreciated them taking the extra time to explain all the different options and give me their honest recommendations. The counterstaff is bilingual and were pretty patient with my elementary school level Spanish vocabulary and grammar. I ended up going with the pulled pork platter with two sides ($7) and it was terrific -- the perfectly seasoned and tender pork, black beans and rice, and macaroni salad were delicious and very filling. You can tell they use fresh ingredients, and the portions are very generous for the price. If you're looking for authentic, home-style Latino food in a laid-back setting, this is the spot! PRO TIP #1: Bring a bottle of wine or beer from home to enjoy with your meal. Sazon Latino is a BYOB establishment and does not serve alcohol. PRO TIP #2: Sazon Latino offers free off-street parking in a small lot behind the restaurant and there's plenty of free on-street parking on Main Street.

The pastor tacos were also good, not as flavorful as the birria, but still a great dish. I would 100% come back with 2 orders of only the birria tacos, star if the show, oozing with cheese and packed with tons of flavor. Great spot for quick bite with the most authentic flavors. Side note, their bathroom has no light, but there come on a good sunny day for their outdoor seating!

I have gone when it's really busy and even still, the bartenders make eye contact and try to attend you as quickly as they can. The hookah is cash only. $35 & $20 for a refill ( good price on that too!) If you wanna dance and have a nice time. This spot is good. I love how close it is to me also. They seem to have good food as well. I haven't tried it yet, but I definitely will as I will be coming more often to this place. They do have valet parking. Parking around this area is bad! So take advantage of the valet. There is no set price , you tip as you wish when you leave.

They are so kind and friendly. But the owner is a total nightmare. Every single time I come in with my service dog (yes, certified), she or someone under her pressure tells me no dogs allowed.

Staff try their best, but the owner keeps harassing them too. If you are an animal lover or need your service animal, skip this place. Not worth the stress. Never coming back. Big letdown.

The Maduro ($1.80) was a bit dry, which kinda looks like it from my photo. I'm thinking it was an off day. I may try again. * Street parking * Indoor dining

BTW the flan was incredible. I really loved the food experience. Portions are spot on. It is like a bodega shop like I grew up with in Washington heights. Nice and welcoming. Very homey and I liked it. Nice place for an impromptu meal. Service needs a little help...My girl could be friendlier and provide service with smile versus the standoffish demeanor she had. You want me to be a repeat customer right? You want me to come back right? Then great me with a smile and serve me with a smile. When you open a restaurant this is primo important! Could be a language barrier thing but if someone can pass this along I will only take one star off because the food was delicious. Worth going to but my girl needs to up the service game por favor.
