I recommend coming on Friday though

This is a small restaurant located in New Brunswick. Parking can be a pain but that's with most…read moreplaces in New Brunswick. My first time going there was on a BLAZING HOT day. I walked in and two super nice young ladies were making and serving the food. I appreciated that I was greeted right away and my order taken right away. If Yelp had star options for both the food and the service, I definitely would have given them 4 or 5 stars. I almost always go completely overboard when I try a place the first time. I picked up almost $80 worth of takeout so that I could try a little bit of everything. I really, really wanted to love the food here but I didn't. Unfortunately I didn't really find anything that I ordered that flavorful. The food wasn't bad by any means, it just didn't have the delicious flavors that I normally associate with great Puerto Rican food. As I mentioned it was an unbelievably hot day so maybe the cook was having an off day because of that. If I'm ever driving by there, I'd probably give it another chance since it has such great reviews from other people.

It may not be the best I've ever had, but when that arepa craving hits, this place steps up like a reliable friend who may not have it all together but still shows up with snacks. The fillings are tasty, the textures hit close enough to the mark, and honestly, it scratches that very specific itch only a warm, messy, cheesy arepa can. It's the kind of meal that makes you say, "Yeah, I could've had better... but I'm still very happy right now." So no, it won't change your life -- but it'll absolutely save your day.

Welp... all I can say is that it was a trip for exercise. We ordered 2 steak sandwiches, beef empanadas, chicharones de Pollo with rice and beans. Stomachs on high growl. We were the only ones dining in before one more seated patron came. The food was made to order, so there was a bit of a wait. They had ready to go options at the front counter, too. Steak came with onions and mayo. There was lots of grissel and needed another sauce. It was very dry. Empanadas needed a salsa they were flavorless, just greasy. The chicharrones are slightly overcooked. Beans and chicken are all missing a taste. We all looked at each other and asked if we had covid lol cause we couldn't taste any flavors of Latin or Caribbean. They forgot the seasonings on everything. This place was sadly overrated at a 3.6. At the time of our visit. My goya coconut water was great. My daughters enjoyed their Goya pineapple sodas. The ladies who worked there were wearing masks and all very pleasant. I feel bad for them that this place was not good at all. Keep walking in the rain cause their flavors were washed away.

We were around the New Brunswick area and found this colorful Mexican restaurant on Google maps but…read morewe couldn't find a review from Yelp. Pro's : 1. Great service / Attentive 2. Delicious food / affordable prices and good portion size 3. Complimentary chips and salsa served in a nifty French fry metal container 4. Colorful with lots of wall murals featuring traditional Mexican icons such as El Chavo and all the sitcom characters, Vicente Fernandez (Singer) and others 5. Bar section / Cocktails - Beer options 6. Lots of Mexican and Latin American music! The only con I can think of is that we asked for water with lemon and when the bill arrived we were charged $2 for each. Wish we were asked if we wanted tap or bottle water. Overall great experience and most importantly delicious meal. SPANISH/ESPAÑOL: Un resumen de mi reseña es que el servicio es muy bueno, los meseros muy atentos con los clientes eso nos encanto. La comida estuvo deliciosa, el restaurante es súper colorido y con todas sus paredes honorando iconos mexicanos como el chavo del 8, Vicente Fernández, etc Bastante opciones de cocteles para pedir, las tortillas o chips y salsa son complementarias (sin cargo extra) lo único negativo fue que al pedir dos vasos de agua con limón nos los cobraron $2 cada uno. No preguntamos si era agua de la pluma o de botella y tampoco nos preguntó el mesero pero la pasamos muy bien.

Stopped by one day ahead to make sure all was set- left a 200.00 deposit since our party was for 10pp, selected 4 apps and 2 pitchers of sangria (white and red) to set on table ready for the guest. They loved the red. We were setup in the first room which was perfect, not to be hidden in a corner - the locals might be a bit loud at the bar so don't be offended fyi. The food was great, as you know that I will call it out if it wasn't- served hot and a good portion. Service was also great from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave, great vibes and most of all the birthday celebration woke up everyone as they pump up the beat and sing happy birthday in English and Spanish with a shot of aqua ardiente! Plenty of parking and they also have an outdoor patio- keep up the great job and thank you for your great hospitality!

The restaurant was laid out with tables to the right & left, a coffee/juice bar and a bakery section in the back. Since my Spanish is nil, I believe who was one of the owners helped us choose our meal. Peruvian Beef Stir fry with rice and fries & Pueblo Style fillet of fish (tilapia) I had plantains & black beans as sides. Both were portions for two people & absolutely delicious. I had a tamarind drink and my friend had a Batido Mango (made with milk) The staff were all sweet and helpful. We got to-go bags. The prices were very reasonable for what we got. After we paid the check we were given caramelo flan ~ we said we would never finish it - well we did! Pretty much licked the plate. Can't wait to go back! And since I watch Celtic, premier, euro soccer, have found a new place that opens early! Soccer was playing on the screens while there! Another plus. Definitely check this place out, they have traditional Costa Rican, Peruvian and Salvadoran dishes - just to name a few!!!
