I can't believe I'm just visiting this place!! LOVE good Colombian food and this one hits it right on the nail (is that even a phrase)? Anyway, came here on a weekday afternoon and wasn't busy at all- that's not to say that the food/bakery wasn't good. It was AMAZING. I got the lunch special which was chicken soup with breaded filet, salad and rice for $12.99. WHAT! And that portion was BIG as you can see from the pictures. Our server was attentive and got us whatever we needed almost right away! My breaded filet came out delicious. Perfect amount of crispy where it's not overdone and it wasn't drenched in any sauce that made the filet soggy. The house salad was simple yet flavorful and that chicken noodle soup was SO hearty that I wanted to go in the kitchen and scoop myself more. The place is big and bright and clean. Bakery on one side of the restaurant for quick take out and restaurant to the right. There's street parking but there's also parking in the back where the giant farmer market is, but it can be a busy lot. I came back here again with my husband another day and had another lunch special which was grilled chicken with mushroom sauce and my husband had a 16oz churrasco, all cooked to perfection. We got some bakery goods to go and we can't wait to have them later. Highly recommend this place!! read more

Ran in quick on a Monday night, while running an errand nearby. Very clean and bright. Staff was friendly and professional. Grabbed a quick espresso and alfajore. Had a seat at the front window and enjoyed a quick dessert. Espresso was smooth and tasty. Alfajore was nice and fresh and the perfect level of sweet, not too much. Very enjoyable. Will have to try more! read more

Bonanza Colombian Delights - Alfajore and espresso! So good! - Colombian Near Me - Hackensack, New Jersey

Sneaky good bakery located in Hackensack. Never knew it was there and when we went inside it was very nice. Very modern looking interior with plenty of TV's catching some soccer action. Was pretty impressed. The baked goods were good. Tried empanada's, chocolate cake, and a couple pastries. All were worth the price. The service was very friendly and the price was about what you'd expect. If I'm in the area I would definitely stop in to have something to eat at the location. Parking is metered and can be tough. read more

Came in to get a baked good and coffee, but wasn't sure what to get since this was my first time. They have a variety of sweet and savory pastries and someone ahead of helped us understand what a few of them were. I ended up going with the standard cheese bread and a hot coffee. My wife got a beef empanada and that was delicious. Very affordable and everyone here is super nice. The coffee was ready in no time. Well decorated and spacious interior with lots of tables and benches. read more

Honestly the food is pretty mid and the servers LOL their tip is already included in your bill so they can care less about what you need. Be prepared to wait 30 minutes at least before they bring out your food it doesn't matter how empty or how packed the place is. It's gonna take them at least 30 to 45 minutes just to get your food out and then when you do get your food and you had a bite of it, the waiter will come yell at u in Spanish and ask u what you're eating mind you they brought the food out if I could give it zero stars honestly I would. Oh they also count the pink sauce The lady said it's one sauce per empanada pink sauce is literally just ketchup and mayo the only reason why this place is still running is probably because of the school that's around the corner everybody seems to go for just empanadas since everything else takes them forever to bring out read more

Offers parking in the back along with street metered parking. Very large restaurant with lots of seating. Very clean and has a total large cafe vibe. Great weekday lunch special offering! Large portion with a very reasonable price of $12.50 per lunch special. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a large lunch special to fill you up. Service was nice and quick as well. read more

Okay so Bonanza is this super cute little Colombian Restaurant on Main Street in Hackensack. I never noticed it until a friend recommended recently. From sitting there and observing, the bakery is the most popular part of this restaurant. They have multiple cases full of these beautiful pastries and they can easily catch the eye. However, I think the star of this show was definitely the lunch options. The wings were to die for. A simple fried wing, but it was cooked to perfection! The Chicharrón was also phenomenal, just remember to ask for some lime on the side. The service did lack a little, as our server was not very attentive. But this didn't ruin our experience. I would definitely return for lunch! read more

Stumbled upon this place when I was in the area thanks to yelp. Great place to grab a quick bite or if you wanted to sit down as well. The restaurant has 2 entrances, one in the front and one in the back. However, the main entrance is on the Main Street. I believe they have parking in the rear. The place was nicely decorated, bring that modern vibe with a hint of greenery to make it feel as if you were outside. Large open dining room with a huge area to see their baked goods. Service was wonderful. The waiter checked on us multiple times. Food was cooked quickly and came out quick. I got the traditional Colombian dish. It was missing some salt, but other than that it was perfect. They have a one dish lunch special. Wish they had more choices. Everything else that they offer was great. Would definitely go here if you're in the area. read more

Ordered a beef soup which came with salad. As I am chewing salad, I could literally hear something crack in my mouth. It was a CRACKED DISH PART! Called manager. She said nothing wrong with the kitchen. Just said sorry and walked away. Really? Hey manager, if that was your family chewing that dish in their mouth, will you be okay with the solution you have shown? The manager walked away and ignored me on my way out. My throat felt completely uncomfortable for hours after this experience. If I have swallowed it and ran into a bigger medical problems, this is a lawsuit. This is a very serious issue that local health department needs to do an inspection. These people working here have no idea of food safety. Watch out folks. You might need to go to ER to get the dish particles out in your throat, hopefully not in intestines. read more

They have great food and a casual atmosphere. We are disappointed that they do not make Arroz con Pollo any longer because it was delicious.

I wanted to find a coffee/bakery spot to do some work after a late lunch and found this place through Yelp. After reviewing the pics and reviews, decided to give this place a shot. Once I entered I ordered the Pandebono and it was so good. I've only tried noches' Pandebono and this one was the best I've had so far. The place is very bright and not loud. I was able finish my work and enjoy a nice snack as well. If I'm in the area I will def stop by again. I would highly recommend this spot if you need to do some work or just have a nice meal or coffee break. * parking in back from what some of the reviews say. I street parked read more

A beautiful and warmly decorated cafe with yummy food and pastries! I ordered a strawberry cake which wasn't too pricey for the size ~$5 (was a large cake). Would definitely recommend getting some pastries or a full meal! Fyi, there's a parking lot in the back so you don't have to street park! read more

Their rice and beans is incredible and they make the best coffee here. Servers were friendly, even though it was packed.

Cute restaurant with lots of seating. Came in on a weekday for brunch. Food was good but the cakes were a bit old. The frosting had lost moisture. So maybe stay away from the pretty display treats - but the rest of the menu looks delicious. Staff is friendly. read more

The Tostones were burnt and dry. The beans had no flavor and neither did the churrasco. The grilled chicken was acceptable but flavorless. It was a disappointing and expensive experience read more

The food is typically good. The chicken empanadas usually come a little too hard or crunchy for my liking. They have the Best fresh squeezed orange juice. The service is okay but could be a little better! The set up inside is so cute and they have so many varieties of pastries! I come here often & usually get the chicken empanadas or pan con queso. Today I tried the croissant con queso and it was amazing! Definitely ask for that warmed cus usually its room temperature. read more

This is a cute place with that is not as loud as some of the other Colombian restaurants you'll find although it seemed pretty busy. The staff is so nice and friendly and the food was pretty good with large portions that are really filling. You won't be disappointed. Look at your receipt carefully though because gratuity is an automatic add to the total. read more

I've gone in countless times to have their pan de bono, mondongo soup, empanadas and most importantly CHICHARRON. One of my favorite Colombian bakery spots. The Chicharron is massive skin is crunchy and flavorful. I love this spot. It's very nicely decorated and elevates the Colombian dining experience. - @chicharronasaurus (IG,TT, YT) read more

Food is goo and the ambiance is comfortable, the service is very fast and accommodating.

yummy Chocolate cakes and cheese croissants. The coffees are very good!! I will surely be frequenting this new hangout spot in this up and coming location in Hackensack!!! read more

I think this is an underrated spot in the community. My family has come here for years for their freshly made pandebono, tres leches, and Colombian seasonal exclusives. They have a wide array of options. Make sure to bring cash to avoid the surcharge! Really nice seating area and plenty of free parking in the back makes this a place where you can feel comfortable to stay awhile and catch up with a friend, or just drop in and out. read more

Wonderful Colombian spot that I love to stop in for a quick breakfast or the amazing pastries. I have yet to have a meal here but if it's as good as the other food, it will not disappoint read more

Oh my!!! I loved this place! We went for dinner. It is located literally a block down from another very famous large Columbian restaurant with a bar. But I was so glad to be introduced to Bonanza. The atmosphere was so calm, bright and happy and everything was so delicious. Not to mention....well okay I will, awesome bakery! Everything we ordered was perfect. Even the sides: beans, rice and salad were excellent and we finished every bit. We couldn't resist the bakery (always room for that!)I had an Alfajores (Dulce de Leche Cookie Sandwich) My dinner companion had a tres leches cake with caramel icing. (Doesn't that make it cuatro leches? So, so good. And let me mention that the young man who served us was kind and patient (I had a lot of questions). And there was another server who upon realizing I did not speak Spanish graciously got the other gentleman. Both were so friendly! I loved it! Now I will come back for coffee and pastry's and for dinners. And it has a robust breakfast menu too! I'm smitten. read more

Absolutely never coming back here again. I ordered my coffee and upon drinking HALF OF IT, I realized there was a gigantic cockroach in it. This is absolutely disgusting and don't understand how they didn't realize there was a roach. Upon going back to confront them they said that's weird and "they don't have that kind of bug here". Does that mean they are aware of others and just don't care? Then proceeded to say they may be in the milk, as if that justifies it. I'm glad to know they have roaches that may be swimming in the dairy. Not to mention the amount of flies on the bakery items. Disgusting. read more

I find myself coming back to BCD every time I get a craving for pandebono and/or empanadas. The first time I came here, I actually went to the hole-in-the-wall 2 doors down and bought some pandebono. I wanted to see whose bread was better. I was hoping for the other spot because I absolutely love hole-in-the-walls, but Bonanza hit the spot. Each. And. Every. Time. The restaurant is spacious and bright. I've never had a problem with street parking. Though I normally come here when they first open. FRESH bread. Delish! BCD please open up a location in Bergenfield read more

Came to the door no one acknowledged us. It was us and another couple waiting. Another couple comes in and seats themselves. When we proceeded to get a seat, the waiter asked can I help you and said feel free to seat yourselves. NICE Slow service, finally someone came to take our order after about a 10 minute wait . 5 different people needed to take care of our table. One person asked if we were ok, my husband said "it would be better once we get our breakfast." She can back with 2 complementary pan de bonos(reason for a 2 star instead of one. Finally we get our breakfast, my beans had pork. I'm a vegetarian the menu does not state pork beans. I pointed it out to the staff I got a fake smile no offer to substitute. Just brushed off. The eggs perico style are good. Just be prepared to wait and if you have dietary restrictions,I know is in me I should have checked. read more

I saw a photo of something called Postre De Gelatina and had to come here to try it. Well, they didn't have it but my disapointment led me to get a whole box of their other goodies. Pan Queso, Chicharron & Arepa, Pamdebono, shortbread cookies with coconut flakes & guava paste, Passion Fruit Cheesecake, Merengon, and Elephant Ear. It reminded me of those Sundays when I would get a box of pastries at the Italian bakery to bring to Grandma's house. The standouts were the Passion Fruit Cheesecake, totally a unique taste, not overpowering, and a break from those traditional cheesecake flavors. And the Chicharron, it was crispy outside but soft, tender, and moist meat on the inside with not a lot of fat. I also need to mention the coconut fakes & guyava shortbread cookies with powdered sugar a balancing act on completing individual favors you can taste with each bite. I only explored the bakery side of the Bonanza, but it also a clean fresh looking restaurant with lots of open space. read more

Such a cute & large cafe/restaurant! I went here and got a few pan de bonos, an arepa with cheese & a coffee with milk which were all delicious. They had a full menu which I did not look at but will definitely come back to check out.

Also bonus tip: There is free parking around the corner from the location which was convenient! read more

It's lovely walking to a clean modernity lit industrial decorated restaurant. It's half bakery & half dining with fresh juices and smoothies. The menu is Colombian & has English translation. The complimentary bread is not pandebono but are these mini light sweet rolls, not a soft roll, dense but not dry. For appetizers we ordered the ceviche pescado which I felt the fish tasted fresh however it wasn't limey & needed some more salt & more flavor. It was a dish that we didn't want to take home. We also tried both beef & chicken empanadas which were toasty, generously filled and delicious... lots of plastic filled ketchup/mayo sauces and salsa were given to pair it with the empanadas. Besides waiting what seemed longer than 30mins for our entrees, our entrees weren't that spectacular. The fried red snapper came plainly fried with a side of rice and no seasoning or sauce. When we asked for sauce we were given more plastic filled sauces which does not go well with fried red snapper... eventually they brought a white sour cream-like or tartar sauce for it-- that should have been brought with the plate. My cousin wanted to order the calentado especial and asked if she could switch out the beans for fries since she isn't a fan for beans but it isn't possible the waiter said. But she kept the dish to its integrity and kept the order. It's actually a pretty simple dish, eggs to your liking, rice & beans and a link of chorizo. I got the sancocho de res soup which actually came out last in a large bowl. The corn cob was sweet and is a filling hearty soup with loads of potatoes and pieces of beef on bone. Could use a tad bit more of salt or seasoning, not bland but could use a little something. I may come back to try their pastries though! And that passion fruit tree leches :0 read more

Not sure why the raves. Been to the other Columbia's places in town. This place looks pretty and decor is nice. But our food on a Wednesday night was below par. A lot of it was overcooked from the rice to the egg to the steak. Corn cobs came out ice cold? Maybe we'll come for dessert sometime but for dinner. No. We will stick with Tierras de Columbia, then maybe Noches, but sadly not here. Was hoping to enjoy. Service was friendly and quick. read more

This place was a pleasant surprise. The decor is super comfy and beautiful. The staff is very nice, the only bad thing I guess is that they expect you to speak Spanish if you look Hispanic. My Spanish is very poor sadly, (trying to practice more) but I tried my best. The girl spoke to me in very fast Spanish I had to ask her to repeat herself. I love coffee and I am so sorry but I did not enjoy the coffee here, though I am glad that they offer a non dairy alternative. The pastry was the highlight. Omg it was delicious. I definitely want to come back and try the food. read more

I didn't sit down to dine. Just stopped in to grab a quick cup of coffee. I also got a hot chocolate for my daughter. Coffee was very good and service was good as well. The restaurant is very spacious and nicely decorated. It's a new restaurant so it's really nice and modern. It was pretty busy on a Saturday (late morning). I noticed a steady stream of people parking and going into the restaurant. I also tried their pandebono which was good as well. Now I definitely plan on returning to try the items in the bakery. They had so many pastries and cakes on display and everything looked delicious. Glad to see some competition in the area for Noches with much better customer service! read more
