    Strawberry Banana Crepes
    Norberto F.

    This place is phenomenal. Serve breakfast and lunch all day. Food tastes delicious and fresh. Service is great and the staff is super professional - they pay attention to the details. Decor is nothing crazy but the place is super clean and well organized. They do have an outdoor place which will be great during the spring and summer. Keep up the great work. I will definitely come back.

    I went there this morning with a friend and it's was new to both of us. Had an absolutely wonderful experience. The service was amazing and the food even better. They have a lovely indoor and outdoor seating selection. We ate inside and the place was very cute and cozy. Perfect especially for a Saturday morning. Would absolutely come back and tells friends and family about this place! Thank you to all of the employees and especially our waiter Tim!

    Came here yesterday with my wife, because she recommended it, and it was an amazing decision. Food: my wife started with an iced green tea which was refreshing on an unexpected warm winter day and we proceeded to get a smoked turkey panini (wife) and the waiter offered a wonderful suggestion of chicken and black bean wrap which was right up my alley. Very good overall food and the smoked Gouda with my wrap really put it all together. Aesthetic: adorable little place with a diner, like bar and seating in the back. I also like the patio, which I assume would be better in the spring and summer. Service: our waiter, Max, was very nice, helpful, and discussed the things he recommended at my request which was honestly a great decision. Everything came out timely and perfect.

    I love this little cafe. Moving out of nutley and living in Newark it is great to eat out and this place is all what nutley is about. A small cafe that is very homie. Great selection of food and coffee. Everything was great. Cooked well and the prices where good. Staff was very friendly and made sure we where taken care of. This is my new go-to stop when looking to eat out locally. A true gem in nutley nj.

    I had an amazing time coming here for lunch with my coworkers. Upon entrance we were greeted and told to sit wherever we would like. From the moment we entered I already knew I would leave happy there. Halloween decor was very cute and I'm a big person on Halloween! We ordered the fried ravioli which was made to perfection. It was def tasty especially dipping it in marinara. I liked the crunchiness to it. Then I had the hot chocolate which was pretty much chocolate heaven! I was surprised the amount of hot chocolate I got , I'm so used to getting a small cup when ordering but this was def worth it. I personally had the Cuban which was enough for two people to share. It was very tasty however lacked some mustard which is fine I'm sure I could've asked for some but didn't because it tasted just as great without it . I had a side of fries which were nice and crispy not over salted at all. I tried a bite of my friend's Mexican panini which was also very tasty especially the kick of spiciness which made it even better. My friend had the hungry human which she said was good particularly loved the French toast . I can't wait to come back. Service was amazing, all the staff there were friendly and attentive.

    Avocado toast
    Shanice W.

    I called and asked if they had avocado toast. They said they did and gave me bread options. They also said it comes with eggs or without eggs. I feel as if in 2025 everyone should know that avocado toast consists of more than bread and avocado on top. All they gave me was toasted bread with avocado on top. No elevated flavors, no seasoning, no drizzle. Completely flavorless breakfast option. Messing up avocado toast means everything at this place is subpar unless you like plain old coffee. If you are the kind of girl who likes an oat milk latte, this is not the place for you. They should have specified it was just avocado on bread, yuck. Will not be going back. Paying for flavorless food when it's the same price of something of better quality is insane.

    I love coming here for brunch! They have an extensive menu, and you really can't go wrong with any choice. The eggs benedict is my go to, but we recently tried the cinnamon French toast and it was absolutely delicious! If you're a fan of cinnamon toast this is a must-try. Their specialty coffee flavors are also fantastic. Service is friendly, though it can slow down a bit during the brunch rush hour. This spot is great for both groups and couples, with plenty of indoor seating and a convenient parking lot in the back.

    Was only here once. Tried the spring chicken wrap with sweet potato fries. It was very good. Will go back and try different items.

    Traditional Eggs Benedict
    Irving R.

    Walked in this morning ready to feel guilty about eating until I had to unbutton my jeans and then go home and take an obligatory nap. I've been here a few times over the last few years but hadn't been in a while. I had the traditional eggs Benny, my wife had the hungry human and the kids had the chocolate chip pancakes and the Mac and cheese bites. The hungry human is an insane amount of food and I dreamt of that French toast during my nap. The eggs Benny were very good as well, the potatoes needed salt. Kids stuff, well i mean choco chip pancakes and Mac and cheese bite, you can't go wrong. My only complaint really is I'm not ready to sit table and table next to another family. Idk too soon. Luckily the family next to us left after only 20ish minutes. Also most people if not all didn't have masks not even the staff. A lil uncomfortable with that omicron waiting to keep my kids home from school and me having to stay home with them attending virtually. HORROR!!! Overall we had a good breakfast here with the fam and I'll be back. Cheers!

    Pulled Pork Sandwich
    Miriam I.

    This cafe is very cute inside. The food here was alright, not great but totally overpriced. It was diner quality but not diner prices. The pulled pork sandwich was the biggest letdown because it was so small.

    Tasty breakfast dishes with a great ambiance. Must try the croissant French toast and banana walnut pancakes.

    The staff and food is amazing! The portion size is enough for two meals. Staff is kind and attentive.

    Food seemed frozen made, not fresh. Don't be fooled into getting the chicken and waffles, it's chicken tenders, not fried chicken.

    Updating my review because Warique has updated their menu for the Spring! As Chef Roberto Carnero…read moreevolves his dishes & flavors, the best parts of Warique remain steadfast. The staff is always so friendly & attentive, the decor is subtle with nods to Peru without being too over the top, & most importantly, the food remains delicious. The new menu offers a whole new set of dishes that we are excited to return & try. This time around, we tried a bunch of the new appetizers: Papa Rellena, Pulpo Anticuchero, Siwichi, & Causa de Camaron. All of which were delicious, but I think my favorite was the causa de camaron! For dinner, we got the Pollo Broaster & the Hanger Steak Lomo. Both dishes were generously portioned & we took home leftovers. We truly can't say enough positive things about Warique & wish them continued success for years to come!

Very rarely do we find one n had great reviews so thought we'd try Warique n no regrets . Hidden gem in Belleville in a residential neighborhood. Street parking was easy to find Nice quaint restaurant w a lovely ambience/ vibe. Friendly welcoming staff. We had the lil gem salad w quinoa tomatoes sweet potato chips queso Andino n a nice haucatay vinaigrette. So refreshing more than enough for two. The lamb anticucho.was 2 skewers of lamb pieces in a chimichurri sauce w sweet potato mousse. Every bite was delicious n the sweet potato mousse out of this world. For entrees had the pescado ala macho- bronzino w umami butter tostine shrimp calamari n mussels every bit was delicious. We also had the Parnell - kind of stew w tomato crab, shrimp calamari . Tasted good but was hard to eat the crab pieces. And no bread or rice was offered . We topped it off with shared a flan Casera..was so delicious. Thank you for a great dinner on a v cold n blustery day inside a warm cozy place.
