Restaurant was beautiful. The frozen coffee is below average. Maybe Cuban is not known for their frozen coffee but empanadas was pretty good. read more

I tried their new flan latte - definitely on the sweeter side but definitely a great latte especially for someone who prefers sweet coffee. Staff was always friendly & I love how they open the windows to the shop to let the fresh air in on the nicer days! read more

This is the same as the one in American dream but better, more stuff!!!. But be warned no air conditioner, drinks tend to be sweeter than some might be used to, and espresso much stronger than you might think because of how sweet it is lol. I wish I had pictures to show, but we was too excited and just devoured everything. Guava and cheese in anything is just magical! read more

I have only had takeout but place looks nice inside and the coffee smells great The place is always packed. But they go as fast as they can I get the empinads and they are amazing When the weather changes I will eat in read more

I'm leaving this review because of a very disturbing experience my family had at Cortaditos in Belleville. About a month ago, we ordered food from the restaurant, and my daughter found what appeared to be maggots inside her empanada. We were shocked and extremely disappointed, especially because this involved food being served to a child. We contacted the owner directly and attempted to resolve the situation privately before taking the matter any further. Unfortunately, after trying to work with the restaurant, we were unable to reach a resolution that we felt adequately addressed the seriousness of what happened. I have a video of what we found. I hope the restaurant takes this matter seriously and reviews its food preparation, storage, and inspection procedures to ensure that something like this does not happen to another customer. This review is not something I wanted to write, but I believe customers should be aware of our experience. read more

Translated from the Spanish meaning small cut, it refers to a strong, Cuban-style espresso drink. It's essentially a small, sweet version of a Spanish cortado, and it's made with a high sugar content and a touch of milk, typically 1:1 espresso to hot milk. Located on Washington Avenue in Belleville, customers are greeted by the portrait of musical icon Celia Cruz aptly proclaiming ¡Azucar! behind the pastry counter's tart pastelitos de guayaba y queso and quesitos of the newly renovated next door to the old one with a warm and inviting vibe at Cortaditos. As my partner and I were invited for a celebration, we decided to get a dozen of the Guava Pastellitos as well as the Meat Pastellito and Ropa Vieja Empanada. These were small, flaky pastries filled with a sweet and savory filling. They are a popular Cuban treat, often enjoyed for breakfast, snack, or dessert. The meats were tasty and richly flavored. The empanadas were baked and not greasy. These guava pastelitos were a big part of my childhood. The staff were friendly and attentive. The price was reasonable for the area. For a first-timer to the new location, it won't be the last, as I can recommend it. read more

Vegan Cubano is nice. Typically a lot of ice served in my Morir soando. No vanilla extract added but could've been nice. Prices kinda high but fits w area. Staff might not be familiar w English but there is a toast tablet w explanations of various items. Cereal drink- con-trigo which maybe should be trigo con. Pay 20 extra for a half hour to park or come here randomly were my choices lol read more

Lovely spot to stop by for a coffee! We did go here in hopes of doing work and it was super hot inside so that was the only "downside" but the service was great and the drinks were incredible. The food wasn't half bad either. I'd def come back in the winter or sometime their big windows are open!! read more

Nice sitting area. The food was delicious! I have the cafe con leche and empanadas. I will bring my friends here

Woke up hungry and wanted a café con leche and the boo wanted a Cuban pastelito de carne so I was on the search for a good Cuban bakery. Stopped by and was not disappointed. Would def return. I ordered a ham and cheese sandwich and he got the Cuban and loved it. Personally I would ask that they press my sandwich longer but that's just my preference. The chicken empanadas were delish! He loved all the empanadas so don't think you can go wrong with any. I saw someone walk out with this drink and had to find out what it was. A frozen cafe con leche. DELICIOUS. GET IT. I got it sweetened and there was an option to add a flavor. Only upset I got a small size just in case I wouldn't like but now I know. Cool little cafe/bakery with the option to sit or take items to go. Quick and friendly service. read more

I guess you have to look like a static or look good or I don't know. You shouldn't go there with sweatpants and a t-shirt. If you want the waiters to be friendly they wasn't. Also my mom got a Cuban sandwich and the metal was cold. I got a ham and cheese sandwich which one half didn't have no ham and the other one had one slice of ham. I paid $36 for the two sandwich and two coffees while waited. Like 25 minutes for it. We'll never go there again. You shouldn't waste your money on fake you and food read more

Big thanks to Yvonne for making my experience a real PLEASURE and TREAT at Cortaditos! Cuban sandwich was warm, toasty and delicious! Cafe con leche and pastelitos exceptional. Thanks again to manager Yvonne! She knows how to make things right! Big asset to Cortaditos' !!!! read more

Cortaditos is like stepping into a Cafe in Little Havana, Miami--a slice of Cuban culture in Jersey. Their authentic flavors never disappoint. My go-to orders are the Pastelitos de Carne, Pastelito de Guava y Queso, and Quesito, all paired perfectly with a creamy Café con Leche or refreshing Strawberry Mojito. For a taste of Cuba right here at home, Cortaditos is a must-visit! Food & beverages: 10/10 Ambience: 10/10 Service: 10/10 read more

Walked into this spacious gem and was mesmerized by the amount of delicious pastries that were displaced. I also cannot forget about that delicious smell of cafecito . I ordered a few empanadas and and cappuccino. Within minutes my order was hot and ready to go. Definitely recommend this place read more

We walked in and everyone was very welcoming. We asked about the upstairs and they told us we could go up. The wall decor was beautiful. It was a cute set up however, the tables were left dirty and had cups from prior customers . So I basically moved them to the counter , was able to sit and enjoy my cafe con leche and quesito. They had cute little cups and the quesito was delicious. I think they need someone checking on the people upstairs or at least cleaning up. Overall I'll come back especially when it gets warmer for the little patio area they have . read more

Good food. Decent coffee. However, food takes forever to be done. Very nice environment, nice porch

Loved the ice coffee and the Cuatro Tres Leches. The Tres Leches was sweet and delicious. The inside was very pretty and they have a table setting where you can sit outside which I hope to do as it gets warmer. I learned the upstairs area was beautiful from the friends I was with but didn't get to see it yet but will do. My friend enjoyed the cuban sandwich and I am eager to try more food and drinks there. The staff and servers were also very kind. I am very happy that this is near the area I live and hope to come again for breakfast or lunch again soon. :) read more

I went to the beauty supply store across the street which by the way is very good. I discovered this little place and it was awesome. I am half Cuban so it was a little bit of Cuba in there. They just need to hire more people behind the counter because service is really slow. Their coffee is great. Their café con Leche is amazing. It's a must try for sure. read more

I am a frequent customer at this place and have never been disappointed until today :( I ordered their frozen cafe con Leche and to say it came up short would be to say the least in all aspects my cup was filled half way without any top of dressings no whip no caramel topping nothing as pictured ! And I made sure to put my add-ons Very highly disappointed and I'm Hoping in the future that this doesn't go on because they really are one of the only Cuban establishments that serve good food! Coffee however not the best which is even sadder being that it's one of the biggest parts of our culture read more

The food was so good! People should try the quesito and the guava and cheese pastelito!!

Here is a great, small, Cuban eatery on the main stretch in Belleville. Parking is very rough. There is street parking only. I parked around the corner and cut through the bank driveway to get in. Everyone inside was very helpful, nice and most importantly patient as it was VERY busy. What we did was, basically got a few things and shared them. We got the last piece of spinach quiche and the second to last piece of the chorizo quiche. I also ordered a Cubano sandwich. We got a few cappuccinos to wash it down. Everything was phenomenal and very fresh. The Cubano was excellent. It was made like it should be on a long roll stuffed with pork, ham, Swiss, pickles and mustard. The spinach quiche was excellent. It was mixed with chunks of potatoes to give it more body. The Chorizo Quiche was also good; I was just expecting it to be a little spicy. All in all, a must try but be prepared to wait a few minutes in a packed environment. That's how you know they're good, by the lines waiting to get served. read more

Legit Cuban bakery. Authentic cortadito coffee = espresso and steamed milk. Not that crap they have at the American Dream Mall. Pastries are delicious. Cuban sandwich freshly made and delicious. Ladies at the counter provide excellent customer service. read more

Made a visit here after hearing about them from a family member who brings appetizers for our family gathering from here! To restatisfy my craving I ordered what is usually at family get together- chicken and ropa vieja empanadas, chicken and ham croquettas only to be disappointed in receiving all ham croquetas instead of our order of chicken ones too...At least the empanadas hit the spot because everything else wasn't great... Crazy chipotle chicken sandwich without bacon was just ok...nothing crazy about it and the chicken wasn't warm inside... Cuban sandwich looked really yummy but it was just ok, bit too dry for my preference I've had better cubanos elsewhere The palmera pastry was super hard, not enjoyable at all. Guava and cheese pastry was also ok, just note there was barely any cheese. Mamey batido has a really strange texture and wasn't enjoyable...pasty like texture so strange.. Overall not worth the $50 we spent...was pretty disappointed especially after the rave reviews! read more

Food is delicious and tastes authentic. Best Cuban pastelitos around this part of NJ.

yum yum! just sad they no longer do cakes for pick up besides their tres leches, very hard to find spots that do really good latin/hispanic style bday cakes read more

Picked up some sandwiches for lunch from Sweets & Cortaditos. It's a small bakery, but they also sell juices, sandwiches, and coffee. I'm more of an iced coffee kinda guy, but I loveeee cortaditos. It's the perfect amount of small, hot, and strong coffee. The Cuban sandwich is delicious. The ingredients are all sliced equally thin and the sandwich is pressed to a uniform thickness which makes it easy to bite through. I would have liked a little more mustard but that's easily corrected. Currently my go to spot for a cortadito and a Cuban sandwich! read more

Love coming here for a delicious treat! This is always a must go place when my Cuban mother comes to visit from FL! The sandwiches are delicious and the pastries are even better. The hardest part is trying not to eat everything at once! My personal favorite are the cream cheese guava pastries and the meat pastries. read more

I love this place! This place has one of the best Tres Leches cake I've ever had. The cake is smooth with the perfect amount of leches (Quattro leches is quite good too). The Flan is silk smooth. I tried this guava empanada and it's unique. The warmth of the empanada made the cream cheese gooey and it was delicious. The coffee is quite good too. The cordadito bon bon (if I recall correctly) comes with sweetened condensed milk in the bottom so just be careful to not mix everything in one shot. Sandwiches are mediocre. I would highly recommend the tres leches, flan, empanadas and coffee. read more

A coworker recommended this place to me when I was trying to find a good place for a tres leches cake and I'm so glad I went because everything I got was delicious! Although I didn't have the tres leches as I got it for somebody else, they said it was good and the chicken empanada and fruit tart I had were amazing!! I really liked the vibe of the place inside as well. read more

Everything went well, the sandwich I ordered was tasty and filling, the bread was nice and toasted and smashed like a proper Cuban sandwich should be. I ordered a Cafe con leche and my coffee had too much milk but it was still ok. The fresh watermelon juice though tastes like u are biting into a watermelon. It's not that sweet but still sweet enough for it to be enjoyable. I do wish they would have strained the pulp from the watermelon but that's a minor thing. The staff was also very friendly and inviting. Overall I had a pleasant experience and would be back. They have these amazing looking quiches that I'm going to order next time I go. Salud! read more

Terrible service. I ordered two breakfast sandwiches that are supposed to come with bacon. I asked to substitute the bacon for sausage. Instead i just get no bacon OR sausage. Just egg. I also asked for a tuna sandwich on cuban bread. Instead it comes on a croissant. We tried calling. No one answers. Will use other restaurants for my breakfast deliveries from now on. read more

Coffee was good. I was expecting authentic Cuban bread sandwich. This is like a gringo washed version of Cuban food. The bistec sandwich was not good :(. The steak wasn't seasoned with the traditional Cuban mojo. It tasted not seasoned at all actually and there was no salt to be found anywhere . Had to use hot sauce just to make it decent. Expensive for the quality. The bread wasn't flat and toasty. Maybe a place for just coffee and desserts. The vibe and ambiance was nice but I would take good food in a hole in the wall over aesthetically pleasing place. read more
