This place is always packed. If you're into some fried pork for breakfast this place is the spot for it. Their chicharrón con camote is a sandwich that has fried pork with sweet potato slices and marinated onions. By far the best deliciousness you can have for breakfast. It's definitely a heavy meal that will leave you full! read more

Here's a polished and natural English review you can post: Pure Gym is our go-to gym in Clifton. My wife and I come here regularly, and it has all the machines you need to work out your entire body--cardio, strength, and functional training. For only $23 a month, you get 24/7 access, which is a huge plus. Even during peak hours when it gets busy, the price and unlimited access make it totally worth it. The variety of equipment allows you to keep your workout efficient without wasting time. We usually don't spend more than 45 minutes, yet we're able to get a solid, effective workout every time. Overall, it's a great gym with excellent value, convenience, and everything you need to stay consistent. read more

My mother had been craving their tamales and while I was there I picked up a chicken sandwich. I will say it may be better to eat this as dine in because since we took it to go the sandwich was "deconstructed" when I arrived home it felt dry, but they did give us the complimenting sauces and potato sticks. read more

El Mamut is amazing! I live an hour away from it unfortunately, but let me tell you it's well worth the hour drive! Literally every single item on the menu is delicious and homemade. The restaurant is also spotless and very clean. Service is very attentive and kind. Wish them nothing but the best. read more

We're here to discuss pork, and we'll get to that in a moment, but first, a few words about the yam. No, please don't walk out. The Especial sandwich seemed like the way to go. Yam is one of the four listed ingredients and I was just going to pretend it didn't exist, but El Mamut has recontextualized this tuber. The fried pork and the black sausage are the expected stars here, with deft supporting turns by the onions and the unbilled orange hot sauce. But the yam keeps the sandwich grounded. read more

The tables are spaced out and they are following Covid protocols. We had to wait about 15 minutes for a table, so we ordered as soon as we sat down and the food came out right away. Then pan con chicharrón was a bit greasy because the chicharrón had a lot of fat on it, but the sweet potato and onions on it tasted great. The tamal de pollo with onions was also very tasty and with hot sauce on top it was great. The hot emoliente was perfect for a nice winter day and the salchipapa was good, but the best was the leche asada. This is a baked milk pudding so it is a mixture of hard and soft as the top part is hard but once you eat it all it's amazing. read more

Amazing shakes and breakfast sandwich options! I've been coming here for a while now and although it is a bit over priced it is well worth it. Typical Peruvian breakfast sandwiches like the chicharon & huevo con salchicha are the go to's. Also the lomo en jugo with bread on the side is just delicious. Pair any of these with a fresh juice and your set to start your day. The only down sides is that this location is small and normally packed so there is a wait and they aren't the best with a system of sitting people down. Also this is a pretty busy street so parking is the worst. If you come early and are prepared to wait you will enjoy your time here. read more

Had I come only to eat an empanada they would've gotten 1 star. I was disappointed as it was dry inside. They seemed to have nuked it in the microwave really drying out the chicken inside. HOWEVER, I came for the sandwiches. I had the asado (steak style) sandwich. I asked them to add lettuce, tomato and avocados. It was very tasty and fresh. The sauce it's cooked in was good and the red onions they used gave it a nice flavor a semi-crunch that really made this a delicious sandwich. Even though I'll never eat an empanada from here again, I probably will return to try out a different sandwich. read more

I had the beef (carne) Peruvian taco. Really tasty. Nice combination of meat, sweet potatoes, white beans (frijoles) in a tasty but not spicy sauce. They have a sauce list you can choose from. I asked the gentleman who took my order to give me a non spicy sauce. Whatever he put it in the taco was delicious. He made my taco the way he would eat it. They don't take credit card under $10 so I had to run out and get cash but it was so worth it. I will be back to try their chicharrón sandwich. That also looked delicious. read more

El Mamut - Taco de carne - Peruvian Near Me - Passaic, New Jersey

El mejor "Pan con Chicharrón" del planeta !!! Muy delicioso, fui con mis amigos peruanos artistas.

I stopped here for lunch today. I was not really busy. I did notice a few people came to pick up their order. I ordered a Chicaron sandwich and a guanabana shake made with water not milk at the counter. They brought out really fast. The pork in my sandwich was substantial. The guy kept checking on me to see if I needed anything. He offered more hot sauce but I didn't need anymore. There's 3 TV with Spanish channel on. The place is spacious and really clean. I ordered a Lucuma shake with milk for the ride home. I can't really describe guanabana or what lucuma taste like. But they taste good! My 2 shakes and sandwich came out to be $15.50. Not too bad for very authentic Peruvian sandwich. I'd hang out here and sip on a few shakes if there was free wifi offered, but I shouldn't it's Passaic afterall. read more

I love to go there when I am in NJ, the smoothies, sandwiches, empanadas, everything tastes so good that you make the place, your favorite. If I go during the weekend, I try to be there before 8:00 am because it gets really crazy crowded, and it is difficult to find a parking space. The waitresses are not too friendly, some of them are rude, they need an intensive customer service skills class or training. read more

I come here every time I feel like having an authentic Peruvian breakfast sandwich. The fried pork is always fresh and delicious. If you come here, make sure to order the "PAN CON CHICHARRÓN Y CAMOTE", you won't be disappointed. read more

Food is great and amazing but customer service is not great at all. They never pick up the phone at all for pick up so you're not even able to place an order for pick up. Once you arrive, you're waiting on line for 15 minutes to finally reach the cash register to order for the lady to make you wait another 5 minutes while she gets herself together and even asks what you would like to order and then with an attitude. Once ask for management, we are told they are cooking and cannot attend to us. We shouldn't have to go to a store to order because no one answers the phone. Although the food is great, the need a better management system. The store is always a zoo with chaos and no order. They need to do better. As a person who has supported their business for years, it's been really horrible with how inattentive and unorganized they are. read more

We had the Peruvian chicken taco (asked for all the sauces) and it was amazing! The flavors were on point and the portions were very generous. We also had the salchipapa (again, with all the sauces) and it did not disappoint! Huge portion. We will definitively be ordering again! read more

I love this place! They have the best salchipapa and pan con chicharron. And they make me feel safe cause every time I've gone they are all wearing masks and they have a good safety policy for pick up. So i appreciate that. read more

Let me start by saying that this is the closest you will get to REAL Peruvian food in the area of Passaic. This is my to go place for an after work snack and even a place where I take my friends for coffee. This is a cute little cozy place with an excellent variety of food. I highly recommend the chicken sandwich or Sandwich de pollo con papas al hilo y todas las cremas and don't forget your cup of CHICHA morada to go down with it :) From the burgers to the chicken sandwiches and not to mention their tallarines rojos or even tamales....YOU can't go wrong with any of those choices. Make sure you get yourself a cappuccino after your meal with an ALFAJOR because you obviously never want to skip dessert! AND before you close out the tab...take some chicken and beef empanadas home for lunch to share with your coworkers :) I do have to mention that this place gets pretty packed on Saturday and Sunday mornings due to their popular PICARONES , Chicharrones con camote and Tamales but you won't think twice about the wait. Just come here early enough. You will enjoy! Excellent food, great atmosphere and the service is great! Give it a try :) read more

This place can definitely bring you to Peru once you taste their food. I'm so glad El Mamut reemerged after the old facility burned down to the ground. Once it opened its doors again, large crowds of people returned for its amazing Peruvian style sandwiches. El Mamut provides more space, a nicer atmosphere (3 flat screen TVs) but the same quality, family-driven service that makes El mamut an outstanding sandwich shop. What do I get? Try the pan con Asado is a signature sandwich from Peru. It's beef slowly cooked to perfection. Just like the ones in Peru. Onions vinaigrette can be put on the side if you like. The empanadas are great too . Baked style. You can take some home. El surtido is a smoothie composed of pineapple, papaya, strawberry, banana and beets. This is a classic Peruvian smoothie. You can take out the sugar that they add if you want. Great way to start your morning. I will come back every time I get a chance as long as they keep providing that excellent customer service. read more

Best Peruvian cafe for chanfainita on weekends is amazing, great papa rellena, chicharron y relleno. Picarones on weekends!

In the area and want a good sandwich? Come to this place. Was kind of hard to find, they had a really small sign. But this restaurant is a hidden treasure worth stressing out over finding it. It was PACKED when we got there, but it was worth it. In my opinion, a packed restaurant is typically a good restaurant. I got the Cuban sandwich special. It was really delicious.The others seem to be really good as well, if only I could try the others! If you can't take my word for it, (which is probably understandable as It was the one time I was there), I'm sure the other positive reviews can help. read more

My best friend took me here last night as a late birthday dinner meet up and I was surely not disappointed. Driving through the town of Passaic at night was a little bit shady but finding parking nearby the restaurant was a breeze- free street parking was easily available. She ordered pan de chiccaron for us to share, along with a lucuma fruit shake. The chiccaron came with fresh delicious bread that was crispy, light and airy. The chiccaron was amazing - not dry, fried just right, without a trace of fat and not too salty. It was accompanied by sweet potatoes/yams that were grilled and soft. She instructed me to remove some of the insides of the fresh bread then fill the bread with 5-6 pieces of the fried pork and also around 4 pieces of the yams. The final product was a delicious, satisfying and tasty sandwich that tasted healthy and enjoyable. The shake was sweet, fresh and smooth. I decided to get some takeout and ordered salchipapas which is fresh fries with hot dogs and also got a pack of their sugar cookies with dulce de leche in the center. The fried and hot dog were fresh and tasty. The cookies were absolutely melt in your mouth delicious. I will definitely be back next time I'm in the area! read more
