Delicious food and great service. We found this little hole in the wall restaurant while on a family road trip. Best decision! Be prepared as they only take cash. ATM inside.

Darren G.

It is a small place like others said that more suited to to go rather than eat in. The owner was very nice and friendly, he made sure to ask what I wanted for my menu and if needed forks or hot sauce and made my food in less time than he said. Very nice to see an owner have pride in their business rather than letting employees be the face of business. So the food, the steak was grilled just right and still tender,juicy and well seasoned. Yellow rice I was bit skeptical on it by the appearance, but it was very good, not salty and seasoned just right with it fluffy and not mushy. For both empanadas I enjoyed them both same and found them flavorful and had plenty of meat. They are small but for the price they are a steal. Also found them out less greaser than other empanadas, and boy does that help the stomach. Hah. A final note, really like homemade salsa hot sauce cups he offered, it was a perfect blend of spicy with a vinegar bit afterwards. Definitely was great dipping the empanadas In it.

****CASH ONLY**** This place is incredible, a hidden gem. I can't believe I haven't been here before. Small joint with only four tables. So a large party would be really tough here. The food outstanding though; it felt like a home cooked meal. Everything was perfect and I would change nothing about it. The jugos come in a large to go cup which I've never seen. All the food tasted fresh and packed with a ton of flavor. The empanadas were excellent, even though they were mini. It's actually the perfect appetizer to get the stomach going hahaha. If you get empanadas make sure you try it with the hot sauce (the red one). These guys are legit and I'd be in trouble if I didn't live 45 minutes away. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Can't wait to go back!

Bandeja paisa (grilled steak, chicharron, fried egg, maduros, rice, beans, and avocado). Side orders of tostones & chorizo.

Everything is super flavorful and authentic tasting! Some of the best Colombian food I've had in awhile. Their "Bandeja paisa" is amazing and worth every penny. It consisted of grilled steak, chicharron, a fried egg, maduros/sweet plaintains, rice, beans, and avocado. I can't stress enough how well-seasoned and flavorful each bite is. My husband and I also enjoy ordering a side order of tostones and a side order of chorizo whenever we're there. We've also tried their lengua (tongue), lomo salteado (beef, onions, peppers), and cholado (a dessert drink with fresh fruit and a variety of yumminess). You can't go wrong with any of their items. I would highly recommend. The prices are affordable and they have pretty decent sized portions. The restaurant itself is not a huge place but its comfortable and cozy with a few tables for sit down dining. If need, you can always order food to go. While sitting down to eat, we always see people come in to order food and go. Their drink selection isnt too bad. Theres a nice variety to choose from (sodas, snapples, aloe, etc). In regards to parking, there is NO parking lot but there is usually enough street parking right out front and close to the restaurant. **please note that the restaurant is CASH ONLY**

This is a local favorite for "quick" Spanish cuisine. The place feels more like a fast food (Spanish) take out joint. They only have two small tables in the store with 4 seats to each table. I've been here several times & have never seen anyone else dine in as I have so it shouldn't be too much of a concern to find no seating. Pricing is slightly above $10 per person for the main dishes but be careful with the sides as the quantity might not be what you expect. I paid $3 for ONE fried banana that came with about 5 slices which I thought was absurd considering those bananas cost 5-6 for $1 in the supermarket! If you stick to the main dishes for about $10-$15 you'll get the best value for your money. The food is really good I just think the side dishes are over priced in my opinion. If you're looking for a true dining experience there are other spots in the area that have ample seating for small and large groups.

This is the spot, the flavor is beyond delicious. Don't be put off by the appearance. Four tables and some nostalgic displays from Ecuador. Opens at 12, but things don't start cooking till 12:30. Hugo is a friendly guy to deal with. He takes pride in his cooking. The main dishes are reasonably priced. The side dishes are kind of expensive. I eat here quite often, and I never leave disappointed. Street parking is available right in front. The location isn't in the best of areas. Park where you can see your car.

Over the years, I've noticed that both the food quality and service have been inconsistent. There have been visits where I left very satisfied with both the staff and the food. However, there have also been occasions when unexpected charges appeared on the final bill, which was disappointing. On this most recent visit, the food was good overall, I'd describe it as average and fair for the price. The restaurant was busy, though not completely full, since they were showing the Brazil vs. Norway soccer match. They definitely have the setup and atmosphere for soccer fans, especially with the World Cup excitement. One downside involved our drinks. We ordered a Passion Fruit Margarita and a Passion Fruit Caipirinha. Since they looked almost identical, we weren't sure which was which when they arrived. The drinks were dropped off by the manager, not our waitress, and he walked away immediately. When we called him back to ask which drink was which, he replied in a slightly ironic tone, "Which one do you think it is?" We explained that was exactly why we were asking as we could not identify. He then said one had sugar on the rim and the other had salt. Unless you're a bartender or taste each drink, that's not immediately obvious. It wasn't a major issue, but I was surprised by the response. A simple, courteous answer would have been appreciated. There was another interaction that left a similar impression. We asked our waitress approximately how long the food would take because we were considering ordering an appetizer if the wait was long. Her response was simply, "I don't know, and I can't tell you how long." While I understand exact times aren't always possible, a more helpful response would have gone a long way. I would have gladly given this place one more star if those service interactions hadn't happened. The food was decent, but the customer service made the experience less enjoyable. I'm not sure whether I'll choose this location again, especially considering it isn't an inexpensive restaurant. I hope they can improve the level of hospitality because the food and for this World Cup season the soccer atmosphere certainly have potential.

Besides almost every table full at 1:15 lunch...including the back room and it is a large restaurant. We were seated without a wait. Took longer to navigate the huge menu.

It still came with avacado, onions, tomato and lettuce. (No cheese as requested). Once I took a bite I realized I had the wrong sandwich. I was disappointed. Waiter apologized and offered to switch it up...I can see he felt bad and we were not quite sure where we both messed up...could have been me? Him? Not a big deal...I just kept it and enjoyed. Chicken was slighty dry (cheese would have fixed the dryness) but seasoned perfectly. It was a large sandwich with two layers of thin grilled chicken. I would split it next time. I like the way it was served...wrapped in a paper. I requested un-seasoned fries and my request was honored. It was all a generous portion.

I can't tell which culture they are supposed to be for certainty, but I doubt any culture would claim a food article that sickened all 4 people who tasted it, one only making it across the street before tossing cookies.... In the past they had empinadas which were usually VERY thin and lacking in terms of the filling (usually Queso)...however today they were out of them by 9:10 AM, with no plans to make more. The miscellaneous hot beverages on the counter opposite the cashier are nice, but I have no clue what they are and they certainly are not labeled.... Their selection of factory made (canned/bottled drinks in the fridge is good including Manzana and several other Latin drinks. In the past I've had good and bad experiences, but today was just so horrible they deserve to be put on blast... The inconsistency even goes so far as to be in the pricing! The green plantains served as a side on my plate with the "Chorizo" apparently added $3 to the cost of my plate, which were included every time before.... And now to add to the survey questions below: Ambiance - what ambiance? The place has a TV which is usually BLASTING-ly loud! It has rows of cafeteria style tables for seating -- and when the food wasn't nasty and the prices higher for no apparent reason -- it was good, but when it was bad it was pretty bad - this time was just ATROCIOUS!

Had a delicious plate of food and drink here after a solid hike. Nice option for anyone looking for…read moregood food with value for money.

Hudson Taco

Hudson Taco never disappoints! I've been coming here for years with my friends and family, and it's…read moreone of our favorite spots in the area. One of the things I love most is that they can easily accommodate larger groups, which makes it perfect for family gatherings or dinners with friends. The location in Newburgh, overlooking the Hudson River, offers beautiful views that make the experience even better. The drinks are consistently excellent, the food is fresh and flavorful, and my 6-year-old always enjoys the kids' menu. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and attentive. If it's your first visit, don't hesitate to ask for recommendations--they're always happy to help and have great suggestions. Hudson Taco has earned our business over and over again. Great food, great service, and one of the best views of the Hudson River. We always look forward to coming back.

The tacos are the smallest I have ever seen. They gave us really tiny miniature plates, and I am…read morethinking, what is this for. Well, think Taco Bell taco size. Hudson Tacos are about 1/2 that size; about the length of the palm of your hand. 5 small street tacos, $27. Way too expensive! But if money is not an issue do your thing. Restaurant sits alongside the Hudson river, which is nice. But I wasn't coming for a view, I was coming to eat. Like another reviewer stated, "For me Hudson Taco will only live in my past." Mine too!

I was pleasantly WOWED by Ms Fairfax and I'm so happy Yelp helped me discover this place and I got…read moreto enjoy the best takeout at the airport! I was craving something hearty and healthy so naturally, I went for the pearly bowl which originally comes with couscous, roasted cauliflower, golden raisins (trust me these add THEEEE touch), pickled red onions (YUM), tahini sauce, avocado, and a lemon-mint vinaigrette - THISSSSSS. I ended up substituting the couscous for quinoa which was perfect for the type of meal I wanted before traveling. Can we talk about that lemon-mint vinaigrette? It's perfectly green and brings the whole bowl together, SO GOOD. Wish I would've gotten a whole side of that. Ordering delivery through Yelp is so easy thanks to DoorDash and I was so thankful I didn't have to be stuck eating chips and m&ms - love these but I needed a little something more. Next time you're taking a flight from Newburgh airport be sure to get delivery from Ms Fairfax. Can't wait to try their crepes and green goddess wrap from their breakfast and lunch menu!

Street parking available, as well as a municipal lot around the corner. Near a historic site to check out as well, Washington Headquarters. Greeted as I walked in, asked if I had reservations (which I didn't), I was shown the tables available inside & was told I could sit in the back area as well. They also have a cute table in the front outside as well. I sat in the backyard while I waited for my friend to arrive. The establishment has a chill summer vibe. All the staff were friendly & attentive. The special was the red snapper & OMG, they need to just put it on the menu! It was delicious, fried to perfection & had alot of meat. I am not a hummus fan but the appetizer my friend orderd-the hummus was tasty.

The staff is attentive, warm, and makes you feel genuinely welcomed from the moment you walk in. The range of food options is impressive. Whether you are in the mood for something light or a full, indulgent meal, there is always something exciting to choose from. Everything we have tried has been beautifully presented and packed with flavor. The drinks are excellent, especially the Faison margarita. It is perfectly balanced and one of the best cocktails we have had anywhere. You can tell care goes into every detail behind the bar. Their Sunday brunch buffet is also fantastic. Great variety, fresh offerings, and such a fun way to spend a relaxing weekend morning. The overall ambiance and vibe are just right. It feels elevated yet comfortable, making it perfect for date night, celebrations, or a casual dinner out.

The Wherehouse

I have been performing at this bar restaurant with my band the Dead Elvi for almost 15 years. The…read moreplace has a very cool rock 'n' roll, hippie and even punk rock vibe. Imagine a cool dive bar kind of like CBGB, but with amazing food! And let's talk about the food, the owner Dan is a trained chef. The menu is so vast and eclectic. It might take you a while to decide on what you want to eat. And if you're a vegetarian or a vegan, oh my God, the choices are so abundant, but everything is absolutely amazing! Best macaroni and cheese I've ever had and I had a vegan sausage and pepper hero with hand cut fries simply amazing! The staff are very friendly. The cocktails are amazing and they have a lot of live music. There really great place to hang out!

Newburgh, NY - we were directed to eat here by a friend after we visited nearby Motorcyclepedia…read more It's a popular local hangout, and the vibes immediately strike me as: if this were my neighborhood watering hole, I'd be a regular here. The decor alone earns a star: rock n roll ephemera covers every surface - walls, ceiling, shelves and display case - and takes me back to the days when I went to "shows" and not "concerts." There's even a small stage in the corner for live music, so that definitely checks out. Our friendly server Dianne hands us menus printed on newspaper, and I needed a moment to decide between the large selection of comfort food classics with creative variations on a theme - burgers, sandwiches, salads, mac & cheese, chilis & soups, burritos, wraps, fajitas, rice bowls, and specialty entrées - finally settling on some apps and a burger to share with my kiddo (which I'm told are good here), while our friend went for a steak bowl. There's a surprisingly large vegan and vegetarian section. Surprising because I haven't come across many veggie-forward pubs that offer anything more than a perfunctory Beyond Burger/black bean burger and an anemic salad. Here, they actually respect the non-carnivore's right to have some decent choices. The "hot" wings are alright and not really hot (though admittedly my spice sensors are likely eroded from my intense affinity for heat), but the poutine was a standout, which we ordered with bbq pork add-on. And while it won't quite pass muster in Montreal (tbh I've rarely had authentic poutine in the US despite seeing it on menus a lot - the cheese curds are never right), it was piping hot and delicious. The revelation was the twisty cut potatoes underneath, seriously additive! I love places with heart, which isn't always easy to define but the effort can be discerned in the atmosphere and the details. The Wherehouse has got that spirit & essence. With 16 rotating draft lines featuring regional brews, and substantial food offerings that far outpaces the typical bar menu, it's a down-to-earth dining establishment with the soul of a dive bar, that makes you feel welcomed like a local from the get-go.
