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! Order the platters! It's like getting the best of the varieties. Get the ham and cheese roll or the buñuelos and the pastrSo good!

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

Our first night on our short weekend getaway and we didn't want anything fancy. Luckily we found…read moreMonte's Cafe and some absolutely fantastic food! Started with chips and salsa - made on-site and they also brought us three sauces, also made on-site - a jalapeño sauce, a red sauce and a tomatillo sauce. 100% recommend-all were delicious. We decided to split our meals and ordered a chicken burrito and the shrimp quesadillas. The burrito was very tasty, with what seemed like freshly made refried beans and delicious chicken. A little too much rice for me, I would have preferred less rice and maybe some grilled onions and peppers. The shrimp quesadillas were NOT what we expected. The shell seemed almost flash fried and in addition to the shrimp it had lettuce and melted manchego cheese. It was really, REALLY good. Service was great and we weren't rushed. There were four other tables filled while we were there and three of them were speaking Spanish which made me feel like we chose the right place. Seriously, I felt like the food here was made someone who'd been cooking like this for decades. A very cool little restaurant that I cannot recommend enough! Great food, great service, and a great location. (Sorry, forgot to take pics here)

Montes cafe is easily the best Mexican restaurant in the area for my liking…read more The service is always good. Whether we dine-in or take-out we never have any issues. The restaurant itself is a good size with roughly 12 tables. It always appears to be clean and well kept. Their birria is my favorite. I've had the pizza (for 2), the tacos and the quesadilla, all always delish. My wife typically orders the mushroom quesadilla which are really nice and fresh. We enjoy Monte's and you would too.

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!

Tried this place last week for the first time. I was disappointed. Beef empanada was extremely…read moresalty and had no taste. 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.

My family has been raving about how fantastic these tacos are at Taco- Tastic!!…read moreSo tonight we ordered to go dinner! Got to admit it was Taco -Tastic Fantastic!! Fresh ingredients! Lots of flavors and textures! Definitely recommend!

Last time we ordered I should've stuck to saying I'd never go back…read more We ordered several orders of tacos. The guy even confirmed upon pick up that the Al pastor tacos had no cilantro or onions. I guess this is their interpretation of that. I had to pick it all apart. Also there is no pineapple on 2 of them. That's the entire flavor point of these. And I asked for red salsa and got green.

Traveled to Atlantic city for a weekend and as always, I was craving colombian food. Found this…read morerestaurant and wow they did not disappoint. For starters, our waitress was extremely kind and sweet we had great conversation. We got the colombian burger which was amazing and perfectly cooked. The paisa was perfect tasted just like home. Authentic as it should be. And as always my absolute favorite, traditional colombian empanadas. I think we do it best and this place definitely did it perfectly. The place also has some very cute seating. I would totally make the drive again just for this.

I saw the very high ratings for this restaurant so I was excited to try it. The staff was extremely…read morefriendly and I ended up talking to my waitress for probably 10 to 15 minutes before ordering a single thing. She recommended the food I ordered in this picture. I cannot remember the name of the dish. But what I will say is that the food was delicious, all of it was excellent. And the price of $25 for this very full plate was worth every penny. I was starving and I ate a lot, but still had to take half of my food home. I have now found my favorite Colombian food and the Atlantic City area. Definitely a must do if you were in the area.

Wow, just wow words cannot describe how this experience was. I was in town with my girlfriend…read moreexploring, and we happen to stumble upon this place. It's totally hidden. I feel like it's tucked away from the main drag so you really have to sort of stumble upon it to discover it. We noticed that they had several different flavors and type types of fillings that you could order for the empanadas and we decided to go with the Korean beef. Let me just tell you that, dear Lord, that was the closest thing to Beef Bulgogi inside of an empanada you can get. I really am regretting not ordering more considering I will say that the combos only allow you to pay in cash. So just a heads up if you're looking to come here and want to get a combo with sauces you're gonna need to pay in cash. So all in all if you're in the area and have cash and want to try something new with an empanada, I highly encourage you to go to Empanada Mama!!!

Tried the berry mascarpone--which was not overly sweet and a great compliment with tea or coffee. Plus the Cocoa Carmelita, which was a blend of different chocolate and caramel gooey desserts. Not sure if it would be everyone's cup of tea!

This was my first visit. I tried the pulled pork rice plate which includes rice, beans and potato…read moresalad. Pulled pork was perfectly seasoned. I loved how moist and juicy the pork was. The potato salad was smooth with some chunks of potatoes and a light crunch from the veggies. My favorite was the beans that pair perfectly with the rice and meat! All this for only $12!!! Wow! I highly recommend it. I also tried their beef empanadas. They were excellent. They're fried to order and homemade. There's a lot of filling and the beef inside is perfectly seasoned. The last time I had empanadas this good was at my Puerto Rican friend's house where his grandma made them! A close second was in Rincon, Puerto Rico. These are that good. They're a must try. This a lovely local neighborhood corner takeout restaurant. You can call ahead to order your food to avoid the the wait. The owner and staff are all very friendly and happy to answer any questions and provide recommendations. They have a tv in the waiting area and some drinks for sale. Inside is very clean and everything looks new and well organized. The food all homemade and delicious. Portions are very generous and a great value for what the charge. I'm looking forward to trying more of their food. I highly recommend it! It's definitely worth a trip to check it out. Support your local restaurants.
