    Anticuchos
    Jeffrey L.

    Craving for Peruvian cuisine? Caido del Cielo in Rahway is one of the best in town. The food was good, the service was great and the ambiance was nice. Parking is a bit challenging though and their AC was not properly working at the time of my visit (a bit uncomfortable). Among the dishes we tried are as follows: Their Anticucho is phenomenal, it's a beef grilled heart served with fried-boiled potatoes and corn. Choritos a la Chalaca was good, its mussels marinade with lime, served with red onions, tomatoes and cilantro. Lastly, the Jalea was good as well, these are deep fried seafoods (fish, crabs, mussels, etc.) served with onion salads. I will definitely go back next time to try other lists in their menu specially their ceviche. Well recommended Peruvian place!

    My new favorite Peruvian restaurant!!! I almost didn't want to post this review because I love it so much I don't want to not be able to get a table because it becomes too popular, but I'm no gatekeeper! The secret is out and this place is a go to spot! Add it to your list now! Every dish I had here just got better and better. Must haves: Ceviche mixto Papa a la huancaina ( ate it too fast, no picture ) Lomo a lo pobre Flan You can thank me later :)

    Lots of love for this restaurant! They serve up delicious Peruvian food with generous portions. It's become one of our favorite casual, local restaurants for dinner, and we often love bringing friends or getting takeout here for group gatherings. Our usual orders include: - Ceviche de pescado - imo, the best classic ceviche dish. Good appetizer to share with a group. - Tallarin verde con bistek/pollo - creamy pesto pasta with grilled steak or chicken. Both proteins are delicious. This was also surprisingly a winner for some picky kids too. - Pescado a lo macho - fried fish topped with a creamy, yellow seafood sauce. The sauce is so good with rice too! - Arroz con mariscos - large, flavorful Peruvian-style paella filled with seafood that also comes with a small ceviche. Plus all the sides like fried yucca, plantains, beans etc. are fantastic! We've never had a bad meal here, and have loved trying all the different dishes.

    My family and I wandered into this restaurant while waiting for my daughter's theatre performance to start down the street. I had no idea what I was headed into, but it was amazing. My 12yo son tried a few new things there and absolutely loved them, and said the guac is the best he's ever had. I agree that the guac was terrific, and so was everything else I tried. I don't know anything about Peruvian food, but this place was really fantastic. The portion sizes were huge!

    Jalea is always the best! And they added a crab? Perfect :)

    The food is so good here and they give you so much. I normally have no problem finishing my plate but this really kicked my but. The staff is friendly and very attentive. This restaurant is one of the most modern themed places. Which is rare since Peruvians like to keep it as authentic as possible but I'm glad they embraced the modern age. Give it a try, and order a pitcher of their chica morada. It's sweet and perfect.

    A reasonably priced menu with excellent fare is this gem in Rahway. According to the owners, they are the first restaurant in Rahway to bring the union of Peruvian food merged with Chinese/Cantonese. The place always seems busy. Their soups are outstanding. A small place yet cheerful. They also serve "desayuno".

    Fast service and great size servings. Impressed on a Monday night all the tables were occupied. Food speaks for itself, and if you love Peruvian food you should try it out. Parking is tough, but what do you expect in Rahway. Staff was super friendly and for a speak easy restaurant the music playing in the background was delightful.

    The food was exceptional! It tasted so fresh and yummy. The service was good and prompt. The ambiance is cute (they have a cute greenery wall and neon light). I highly recommend checking it out :)

Recently, we discovered that there's a much larger part of the restaurant in the back, accessible through the alley off the main street via the rear parking lot. The space is decorated with Peruvian art and vibrant colors. To start, we ordered anticuchos (grilled beef heart skewers). The marinade is packed with delicious. I honestly thought I was eating steak. I ordered the chupe de camarones (shrimp chowder soup). I cannot stress enough how big this bowl of soup is. They do not skimp on the shrimp! It's probably one of the best chupes I've ever had. I ended up taking a large container of it home. Likewise, my partner ordered the chaufa mixto (Peruvian fried rice with chicken, steak, and shrimp). Always ask for the green sauce, absolutely delicious! Just like with my soup, he also had plenty of leftovers. To wash it all down, we ordered chicha (a purple corn drink), which was so good. This place is known for its rotisserie chicken, so we ordered a half chicken to go for the following day. I understand why it's everyone's go-to here, juicy and flavorful. We don't live nearby, but the food, friendly service, and generous portions of delicious dishes make it well worth the trip.

    While shopping at the nearby Animal Crackers I saw Mana across the street and decided to drop in to…read moregrab lunch to go. Mana is a nice space with a huge mural painted on one wall with several tables spread out in the restaurant with a comfortable distance between them. To the right is the counter where you order and pay. The restaurant is clean and welcoming and I would have been happy to dine in had I not been running errands. The food is mostly laid out on a steam table behind the counter. I saw different kinds of chicken, pernil, potato salad, green salad, empenadas and more. I wound up ordering yellow rice with black beans and a baked chicken leg. I also ordered a side of Maduros and a chicken empanada. Here's how I found everything (keeping in mind I took it home to reheat before I ate it): Chicken Empanada Unlike most empanadas I get nowadays, this one seemed to have been fried, with a crispy, yellow outer shell. The crunch was fantastic and I really liked the flavor. The chicken inside was super tasty and I immediately wished I had ordered another of these. Maduros I LOVE a good plantain but they are surprisingly hard to find. I would say if I go to five restaurants with them perhaps only two will have really good ones. Maduros should have a nice chewiness, maybe even a bit of caramelization on the outside with a wonderfully sweet flavor. I am happy to report that Mana has exactly this and it was great! Chicken & Rice with Beans The rice with beans were good and had some veggies mixed in. I've had better and I've had worse, so this falls straight in "B" territory. The chicken was the same - tasty, well cooked, moist but the flavor was average. Flavor-wise this is a good dish (not amazing). That said, the *serving size* was tremendous and there was enough rice for me to have over two meals and for that it deserves high marks! I really enjoyed the food from Mana. Sure it's not the best ever, but it was good and priced reasonably. I'd definitely go again.

    What Thai food dreams are made of…read more I first got hooked on Thai food about 20 years ago--grabbing takeout from random food carts and a tiny Midtown spot called Rain. One bite in, I was done for. Since then, it's basically a rule: if I see a Thai restaurant, I'm stopping. Over time I've graduated beyond pad Thai (growth), and I'm always on the hunt for the next standout dish. This past weekend, I found a hidden gem. And I mean hidden. Don't let the exterior fool you--it looks like the new owners took over a long-retired diner that last saw its glory days sometime around the Reagan administration. Inside doesn't do much to change your expectations either... very "vintage 80s diner chic," and not in the trendy way. Then you're greeted by a kid who looks like he's juggling high school algebra homework while simultaneously bussing tables, taking orders, running food, pouring drinks, and working the register. Absolute Swiss Army knife. Honestly, I've been to fully staffed restaurants that don't run half as efficiently. Now the food--this is where things get serious. I usually start with papaya salad, but I saw they offered soft shell crab for an extra $3 and thought, "say less." The crabs came out perfectly fried--crispy, not greasy--two generous pieces sitting on top of a bright mango salad with a light vinaigrette. Ridiculously good. For mains, I went with my usual benchmarks: beef pad see ew and duck in red curry. Both delivered. The pad see ew had a solid portion of Chinese broccoli, noodles cooked just right, and that perfect balance of savory flavor. The red duck curry? Rich, fragrant, and the kind of dish that reminds you why you fell in love with Thai food in the first place. No exaggeration--these might be the best versions of both dishes I've had in 20 years of eating Thai. And I don't say that lightly. I was just in Vegas and went off-strip to try a highly recommended Thai spot... this place beats it, easily. My wife agreed, and she doesn't hand out food compliments like participation trophies. At that point, we figured dessert was mandatory because clearly this place refuses to miss. Mango sticky rice came out and--shocking--also excellent. Sweet, balanced, and a perfect finish. Total bill was around $100, including a large Thai iced tea (also on point). Bottom line: this family knows exactly what they're doing. If they keep this up, they won't be "hidden" for long--they'll be packed with repeat customers who, like me, came for curiosity and left planning their next visit.

    This quirky Thai diner serves very good Thai food! All the dishes are packed with Thai flavor…read more Mild here is more like a medium compared to somewhere else. I usually order mild spice here whereas somewhere else medium spice. The best dish we had so far is the pineapple fried rice! It's excellent and definitely a 5 star dish! We also had the cashew nut stir fry, mango shrimp, and prew wan with shrimp. The only dish I don't recommend is the prew wan. It's lacked the sweetness it's supposed to have. The mango shrimp and cashew nut stir fry was very good! Service is a bit slow, but the food makes up for it. I recommend Monkey Thai Diner in Clark!

And surprisingly, this happened to be a very well known restaurant as our other coworkers knew about it! It's located across of CubaNu Restaurant & Lounge on the corner of Lewis St and Main St in downtown Rahway. There's paid street parking and parking garages around the area. My coworker and I shared their Calamari Al Forno, tossed with Italian sausage, hot cherry pepper, and balsamic glaze. And wow. Who would have thought balsamic glaze with calamari would be sooooo good! I'll definitely be ordering that combination again. The mix with the Italian sausage and cherry peppers added a nice kick to the dish. Both of us could not stop eating it even though we wanted to save room for our pastas. Our meal was off to a great start! I ordered their Linguini de Mar which was supposed to have four seafoods: shrimp, calamari, mussels, and clams. Unfortunately, mine was missing the calamari. However, the pasta was incredibly flavorful and the seafood was cooked perfectly - not overdone or underdone at all. YUM! My coworker got their Cheese Ravioli with the Bolognese sauce (unsure if it was extra as I didn't see the check). She loved her pasta as well! She's usually a light eater, but she devoured half the calamari appetizer and all of her pasta, which speaks volumes about how much she enjoyed the meal. I felt that the one downside was the unusual amount of water I drank (maybe ten cups?). This was my own personal indicator that there was definitely some sort of flavor enhancer which wasn't a negative thing. I'm not certain, but the food was very good, so kudos to them if that's the case. Overall, definitely a hidden gem! We unfortunately didn't try their pizzas/pies but this will definitely be on my list again the next time I visit. Or I may opt in for another round of calamari al forno and pasta again, haha!

    Rahway has a nice downtown area with good restaurants. I'm always surprised when I visit because…read morethe downtown isn't that big but some of their restaurants are fantastic. This restaurant was pretty good. If you dine in make sure to have plenty of time because the service slow. Their pizza is wood fire and so was the cheese bread which was delicious. The calamari was good and I know places that have messed up calamari (this was not one of them). I enjoyed my plain individual pie and the crust in my opinion made the pizza. The lasagna was tasty as well and I think the sauce made the dish. The brussel sprouts were crispy and the added bacon added a nice flavor to it. I only wish that the dish had more whole sprouts. Great experience overall.
