    Chef Pedro R.

    This place really knows how too cook banging food. I had the ox tails and they nailed. Im definitely going back i cant wait to try something different . Ok my wife is very picky about cuban or Spanish food. Ill tell you this she loved this place and we both are amazed how great the food is. I cant understand why they are not packed. I think its the location but the location is not bad. I love this place i recommend this place. One of my top three favorite hispanic restaurants. Im a chef for over 30 years of experience so for me to recommend a place it better be that good !!!

    Combo to-go box.

    We were in the parking lot and our 6-year old smelled the air and said, "mama, I want that." And that, we did have. When you first walk in, it's an un-assuming set up with stool seating reminiscent of an old timey American diner. The space is small, yet charming. They have a menu consisting of specially prepared dishes that rotate daily. You have a choice to select a combo consisting of rice, beans, veggies/plantain, and a main dish. I opted for a combo with the Spanish rice, black beans, braised short ribs, and vegetables. The husband chose a steak sandwich. We also got the fresh lemonade and passion fruit. We enjoyed our meal. The beans were flavorful and the short ribs tender with flavor that added to the rice. The steak sandwich was good. You can select to dine-in or to-go. Would recommend.

    This food is sooo good. We got two platters to go, two waters, 4 empanadas, and an iced tea and all that cost me $29. It's sooooo much food and it's good! The people were so kind. They speak English and Spanish. I heard it's Cuban food but i didn't ask today when i went. I didn't see anything either that indicated any nationality or ethnicity. Either way the food is good. Ambience is good. It's small in there. I personally wouldn't eat there but there were a couple people eating there at like "bar tables" They aren't really bars but just high tables and stools to sit at. No alcohol here. BUT there is plenty of outdoor seating. It's also very clean here. Only reason I'm not giving 5/5 is because I felt my pernil was a little on the dry side. Also the chicken wasn't flavorful. Other than that, I'm absolutely eating here again.

    Amazing!! This place is a must if you are in the area. Authentic latin food made with love. Wish this place was in all US as I don't live here. Prices and food quality are the best! A true gem! Thank you for making food great again!

    There should be long lines to eat here... although part of me wants to keep this gem a secret!…read moreAbsolutely delicious from start to finish, with an explosion of flavors in every bite. You can truly taste the freshness and care in every dish and sauce, all made in-house. The owner is incredibly kind and welcoming, greeting everyone with the warmest smile and making the whole experience feel special from the moment you walk in. We chose to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful weather, but the spacious indoor dining room was just as inviting, filled with incredible aromas that instantly set the stage for a memorable meal. We started with Dominican appetizers and fresh juices, then shared Ethiopian platters that were packed with flavor and perfect for the table. Everything was outstanding, unique, and clearly made with love. We're already looking forward to coming back!

    First time here for dinner, the service could have been better. My order was not explained to me…read moreclearly by the server. I ordered the 3 vegetable combination. , which for $25 was a bit pricey, each portion of the vegetable mixture seemed like a bit larger than a spoonful or 2, with a bit of lettuce provided as a salad, no additional injera bread provided with an added cost. The added fee on the bill with no explanation, when we asked, our server did not know, but we all paid with cash, assuming it is the credit card fee places now feel they can charge, in addition to overcharging for food. In spite of my comments here, the food was tasty and healthy, earning it's overly generous 3 stars here by me. 4 of us for dinner, we asked for 3 separate checks, and the server did comply, but just put them down together, leaving it up to us to sort them out. As there were only 4 of us, and only 3 separate checks, the server could have put in the extra effort there.

    One of those places you almost don't want to tell people about... because you want to keep it for…read moreyourself. But I won't gatekeep! Barrio Costero was such a fantastic find! My family of 4 had a 6:30pm reservation on a Friday, and it was the perfect timing, the restaurant wasn't packed, but there was still a great energy and atmosphere. The space itself is beautiful, and from the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly warm and welcoming. We started with the nachos, and if you're expecting your traditional pile of tortilla chips, cheese and toppings, these are definitely not that! They're individual tostadas topped with guacamole, salsa, cheese and crema. A fun twist and actually really delicious. The kids went with the chicken and cheese quesadilla, which was a huge hit. Simple, but SO good, definitely one of those dishes where I kept sneaking bites from the kids. My husband ordered the Tlayuda Masa, and we actually had to ask our server what it was. He immediately told us it was his favorite item on the Masa section of the menu, so of course we had to trust him. And he was absolutely right! It's essentially an open corn tortilla topped with incredibly tender skirt steak and a seriously good sauce. This ended up being one of the standout dishes of the meal. I ordered the pescado and carnitas tacos, two come with each order, and WOW. Both were packed with flavor and absolutely delicious. I honestly couldn't decide which I liked more, which is always a good problem to have when ordering tacos. And the whole time I kept thinking, "This feels like a restaurant I'd find in Brooklyn." The food is creative without feeling overly complicated, the space is stylish, and there's just a really cool vibe here. We finished with dessert and tried the flan, which was interesting but personally wasn't my favorite. Then came the horchata ice cream... OH. MY. GOODNESS. I have never had horchata ice cream before, and I am officially wondering where it has been all my life. 10/10. Creamy, flavorful and SO good. Our server mentioned that the menu changes seasonally, which gives me another reason to come back. I would love to see what they do with the fall menu! What I'd order again: Pescado tacos Carnitas tacos Tlayuda Masa Horchata ice cream Definitely worth adding to your list!

Combined with the warm hospitality and attention to detail, it made for a perfect anniversary celebration. We are so grateful for the experience and can't wait to return!

    Tramonto's Pizza was amazing for so many reasons. Not only was the pizza next level, the service…read morewas above and beyond. My story - My fiance' and I were in the area for a saltwater fishing trip. We settled into our hotel and needed dinner. We decided on Tramonto's . We had never had their food before but the website looked good and the menu as well.. So we ordered and we used a third party delivery service, not affiliated with these guys, as I found out later. I received a text from the third party delivery person, around the promised time of delivery. The text simply said, " I am here "., but they weren't. I checked the hotel lobby, they weren't there either. I texted the delivery person and said, " Where are you"?. No response.....several more texts....no response. I called the number, which came up as an Alabama number and no one answered. I realized I had been dubbed and my food and generous tip were gone. I was pissed. I called Tramonto's to ask about my order. A lovely woman named, LeeAnna (sp?) answered the phone. I explained my situation to her and she was apologetic as well as sympathetic. She explained to me that the delivery service is a third party and they have no oversite over the food after it leaves their restaurant. She immediately said that she wanted to make it right and 'get us fed"....lol. She called the third party to sort it out while I listened in and the third party had nothing to offer. LeeAnna then offered to remake our order of two pizzas with several toppings,at a discount and get us a total refund (food+fees+ a generous tip) from the awful delivery service. All of this and they were closing in 20 minutes. I arrived 2 minutes before closing and my food was ready and hot. The owner Teddy, LeeAnna's husband shook my hand and apologized several times. Even the staff offered me apologies. They even threw in a brownie and and order of pepperoni garlic knots. So I am not just saying this because they went above and beyond, but because it's true. The pizza was amazing. It was everything I look for in a pizza and believe me, I know my way around some pizzas. The dough was flavorful and cooked perfectly, not soft or too crunchy....perfect. The sauce was bright and the cheese was delicious and the toppings were generous and fresh. And if you do stop in...get....yourself...a....brownie! OMG was that brownie good. They took a very negative situation and made it positive. They made me feel better to know that there are still people in the world that are good and that care. Not only is the food amazing here, the people ten times as amazing . If you are in the Neptune area, you should patronize this business. You will not be disappointed in any way. And....you can call them directly for delivery. Do not use a third party!!!! Thank you, LeeAnna, Teddy, and staff. There aren't many like you. I will see you the next time I'm in town.

    The pizza was OK. Twp problems: the delivery person rang the bell, put the pizza on the deck and…read moreleft. Really. The next problem is management or lack thereof: I wrote them about my delivery experience and was ignored. So, OK pizza; shoddy delivery; poor communication. You be the judge.
