Our lady server was so personable and always answered our questions with a big smile. We met the owner who was as friendly as his staff! Excellent service is always a plus! The food was well-cooked down to its bananas and arepas! This restaurant is highly recommended and they close at 10 pm most days, so if you're still out and about at a later time, this is definitely a good place to get some delicious food!

First time at a Colombian restaurant with a couple friends who like to explore a different foods…read more We tried empanadas, chorizo, and then got a large meat platter, which had steak, chicken, pork and chorizo along with french fries and baked ground potatoes, it was four people, and the three of us could not finish it, and would feed5. Overall, the food was OK, the presentation of the fish at another table looked very nice, but the style of food is not really seasoned and so it's a relatively non-gastronomic meal but you leave feeling full. Maybe I expected more because I like Mexican and Thai food, but went into it with an open mind. It was clear that a lot of local Latinas went there, and that is a good sign that it fits the cultural expectation. So if you are Latina and know what to expect it is a good restaurant to try

This is to report a serious health and sanitation concern…read more On Friday, January 16, 2026, at approximately 12:26 PM, I was inside the establishment when I observed a roach crawling on the wall. An employee, who appeared to be the manager on duty (as she was older and seemed to be overseeing the shift), attempted to kill the roach. When she grabbed it with a napkin, the roach fell onto the table. The employee then killed the roach and disinfected the table. However, this same employee had taken my order and continued handling service immediately after the incident. The food was served, but none of it was consumed due to the health concern. There was one other younger employee present, but they were not involved in the incident. Camera footage should confirm this event, as it would show the employee killing something on the wall during this time. Due to the seriousness of the situation, I also contacted the Health Department to report this incident.

I've been passing this establishment ever since January. Having dined at other Noches locations…read more(Dover, which has closed and I was not crazy about their overcooked food) and Belleville/Bloomfield, which was very good. I decided to give this one a try. I finally broke down and stopped in for lunch on Saturday March 8. The place wasn't crowded. It's a bit spacious but not many tables. My first thought was that it would be hard to get a table at dinner time. I was seated immediately and my order came right away. The server was very seeet and friendly and always checked on me. I ordered a paellita noches with black beans as well as tostones (fried green plantains) I received the paellita that came with maduros (fried sweet plantains). I ordered black beans but Instead I got red beans. I let it go. The paellita was good and a huge portion. I had to take half home. I didn't care for the red beans. They were a bit tasteless. The tostones were bland and a bit too greasy. I added salt and dipped them in the beans. (I'm PR and we add salt as soon as the fried plantains come out the fryer so that it sticks or serve it with mojo). Tostones do not taste good bland. I may go again and try some different items, skip the tostones and make sure that I get my black beans. I'll update this review depending on my experience when I return.

Fuse Eatery is one of those places you drive past 100 times, and then on the 101st time you finally…read morestop in... and immediately regret the other 100 times you didn't. The empanadas here are seriously awesome. My two favorites are the Hawaiian and the Buffalo Chicken. The Hawaiian is the perfect sweet-and-savory mix, done to perfection. Every bite has that balance where neither the sweet nor savory overpowers the other. And the Buffalo Chicken? That sauce is easily one of the best buffalo sauces I've had. Great flavor, the right amount of heat, and absolutely packed into a crispy empanada. Definitely don't make the same mistake I did and keep driving past this place. Stop in -- especially for the Hawaiian and Buffalo Chicken!

I was expecting to taste some garlic, onions, sofrito or recaito and maybe other seasoning. It was just meat and salt. I will give them another try but get a different empanada. I know everyone has not so good days so maybe it was a fluke. I will say the empanada was packed plentiful with beef, shell was great. Made fresh while you wait.

We've been to El Arriero a few times and the food was pretty good. Today we came in to the…read morerestaurant and it was empty, the couple that always ran the was not there. There was very loud bachata music and out walked this person that I can't call her a waitress, I have respect for waitresses they work very hard, she comes to our table we say hi and all she said was "what do you want to order". We put in the order and she turns up the music and starts singing in the kitchen. We ordered the bandeja paisa when it came out the pork was tasteless and very chewy, the Colombian chorizo tasted and had the consistency of cardboard, the rice was good and so was the steak. And then she turned the music louder yet I had to call her almost yelling to ask for the check it was almost like a comedy show. My other half and me looked at each other laughed and just said. NEVER AGAIN!!! What a disaster. If you want to have a half decent dinner don't even think about this place. Service 0. Noise 90 decibels. Food 1.

When in doubt, you can…read morenavigate to Nanami Sushi & Asian Cuisine in Jamesburg, NJ since it is to the left of Fogon Latino.** Had to provide an update because YEARS later it is still delicious and remains one of my favorite spots! I will weep if they ever close down. Their food is divine. Even their rice is somehow incredible. Their meat bursts with flavor and is tender. I don't order off of their menu; they just have a bunch of hot food buffet style and I just request what I want. I always get their rice with black beans on top. Menu items vary by day but these are common items and some of my favorites: chicken leg, beef ribs, yuka fries, and pork ribs. When I introduced this place to my boyfriend, he fell in love too. When I asked what he would do if it ever shut down, he said he would kidnap the ladies working there (joking, of course). But he did say seriously if he knew ahead of time he would be willing to pay for their recipes. The friendliness of service depends on who's serving you, but no one is rude. They're just straight to the point. The inside is always clean - I just never eat in there since I just pile a bunch of food in a takeout container and bring it home for several meals. My boyfriend can finish it in one go if he's starving though. I always get a takeout box to go, and tbh the only downside is I don't know how much it is until they check out. They don't weigh it either, but I'm sure they have some type of formula? A box is usually around $22 BUT that's with A LOT of food stashed in there that I ask for. It's worth it. Another thing is that their soups, while delicious, are overly salted like crazy! So I usually skip that. Or if you really want to try it, you can dilute it with water and reheat it. A hidden gem overall - Must try! Who would've knew a quiet strip mall can hold some of the best food I've ever had.

I noticed all tables were set and had additional wine bottles and Saratoga water bottles. A great touch. As we sat, the "menu" was provided and when you open it it's an iPad. Amazing and you know that this place does not skip out on budget hahha. As you scroll through they have great images and selections that are categorized accordingly, I appreciated that. We ordered the chicharron civeche coz why not? Never had it and had to try it. Uh-mazing! The flavor, the texture, the combination of sauces. 10/10. Then we ordered the Colombian meat platter for 2. Again, amazing! The skirt steak, sausage, chicken, and pork all were cooked to perfection. Not dry, not bland... it was delicious! Our servers were also amazing and attentive. They came to our table enough to check in but not annoying. Very nice and friendly! Overall, I see why this is another gem in town. Check them out and support!

My favorite sides are red beans and rice, also consistently great. MiLina is a very friendly place. We are always warmly welcomed. Servers are attentive and not overbearing. We do not speak Spanish and--on occasion--communication with a server has been slow, but always warm. The staff wants to please. The front room has music some nights and can be noisy, but the back rooms are quiet and service there is impeccable. On our last visit, our server overheard us talking about this meal being for our wedding anniversary. After our main course was cleared, we were presented with a dessert on the house. The plate read, in chocolate sauce, "Happy Anniversary" and was a lovely way to end the meal. MilIna has replaced our NYC go-to steakhouse. Great food and service, close to home.
