No era el lugar al que íbamos inicialmente pero muy gratos de conocer la buena atención de la señorita y sus productos, es bien sabido que en EEUU muchas veces llegas a algo colombiano y parece de todo menos colombiano, pero este no es de esos, no voy más seguido por que me queda lejos pero si tienes oportunidad visítalos, comimos empanaditas, buñuelos, almojabanas, avena clásica alpina en caja, todo no más de 20 Uds

This small but authentic restaurant is everything Noches De Colombia wishes it could be. The food is excellent the whole place is small but everyone including the owner is very friendly and welcoming, makes you feel like you're in your Tia's house in Columbia. I would definitely come here over Noches De Colombia! Everything, the service and food are incomparable I love coming here!

Este lugar evoca a un pedacito de Colombia en New Jersey, estar allí es recordar a Colombia en un ambiente familiar. La comida es deliciosa y las porciones generosas. La atención sin igual, muy amables.

Quaint, cozy place, "welcome home/family vibe." The lady taking care of the place (I think she's the owner) is amazing! She took such good care of us and went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our time there. The food was very good and the portions are huge, definitely worth it. If you like small places with good food, you gotta stop by. Street parking only but there's enough parking and there's a city parking lot nearby.
