“Wanted to try something new and stumbled upon this place. The environment is warm, friendly, and aesthetically pleasing. Staff are polite and sweet. As someone who isn't vegan, I was pleasantly surprised by the flavorful and delicious food; it's hard to believe it's all vegan. I would definitely return to Next Stop Vegan again.“
“The food was artistically presented and delicious. Service was attentive without being intrusive. Ambiance casual yet classy. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves in terms of the absolute artistry this place has in presentation of its delicious food.“
“My husband and I went to eat here last night and we loved it. Very delicious food and very beautiful presentation. The restaurant was full and they were a little understaffed, so it took a long time for the food to arrive, but the owner was so kind and thoughtful to give us everything we ate that night for free and also gave us a bottle of wine. I wish I would've asked him his name, but very nice guy. We are definitely coming back soon.“
“Happy with the Hackensack branch, before I had to drive 20 minutes now I have it close to home. The food is delicious and what I love most are their juices and smoothies..!! If you are on a diet, it has green juices and healthy smoothies. If not, I recommend my favorite, which is sapote or Mamey..!! The girls are nice, good service, super clean. Recommended 100%Dietary restrictions: Well I see that it has green juices, although I don't like them...!! But those who want healthy smoothies this is the place.Parking: Well, it has about 14 parking spaces, I don't think I counted them correctly, but the good thing is that I always find parking.Kid-friendliness: The portions are perfect for the little ones in the house, the empanadas and the yucca buns I know they love them.“
“We staying next door at the Muse and I walked the 20 steps to Margon to get a cafe con leche and tostada cubana. I was blown away. As born and raised Miamian, I can honestly tell you that the best cafe con leche is found at Margon in Manhattan. Hands down. And the ambiance reminds me of the old-school cafeterias and bakeries my grandfather and dad would take me to as a little girl. Keep doing what you’re doing .. loads of blessings and suerte, your way!“
“Some of the most tender chicharrones I've ever had. I wanted to try their beef ribs but unfortunately they were out of stock when we got there. We went on a Saturday night and they played live Latin music so the overall ambiance was dope. I will be back to try the beef ribs. The pork ribs were seasoned and tender to perfection. Cool spot for BBQ lovers!!!“
“What a treat! This was our favorite typical "casado" meal while on our two week trip in Costa Rica! The herbed lemonade was fresh and delicious, and vegetarian casado plates creative and very fresh. The house homemade mango pepper sauce was delicious! The two women who ran the restaurant were so friendly and even let us take their photograph! Very clean, cute atmosphere. Highly recommend!“
“Scouting for the Food Network App for great NJ Breakfast Sandwiches I placed a quick.pick.up.order..loved the fact you can call, get a live person and place your order. The Name, Salt, Pepper, Ketchup could be the best sandwich shop name ever.. I was in Breakfast Sandwich mode, but made the wrong choice in that I order the Breakfast Sandwich combo which was more of a Cheesesteak with eggs and hashbrowns. It was good, but I was looking for a NJ Taylor Ham Eggal and Cheese with Salt, Pepper and Ketchup.. My fault, with the order. Still was excellent, but I want to go back for the NJ Breakfast Sandwich staple. The Service was excellent. They even had my order in their heater to keep ot warm. Only a few parking spots out front, so definitely a Grab n Go spot. $15 cash for Special Breakfast Sandwich and Orange Juice. I will be back.“
“Delicious Dominican food! The people working here are super nice, very helpful and just having a lot of fun in general which just makes the food taste better. Eating here was a great experience and I highly recommend anyone to eat here because Mary can COOK!“
“The food is amazing! Fresh and delicious. We are very impressed by the quality of food at a small restaurant like this. We love the spaghetti with string beef, seafood platter, and mussel ceviche. Everything is beyond our expectation. Quality food, good portion, and very reasonable pricing. Probably not a romantic atmosphere but definitely good for family and casual dining. We will be ordering many times on DoorDash in the future“
“Best pork shoulder I've had in a long time from any restaurant. Everything is on point! Nice and clean restaurant as well. Great atmosphere to dine in. Will be back soon. Definitely recommend.The most delicious pork I have eaten in a long time that came from a restaurant. The black beans and rice and even the yellow ones were perfect. Good atmosphere to eat inside and everything is also very clean. I definitely recommend it and will return later.“
“Saw great reviews. Decided to order some lasagna. Beef lasagna has rich flavor, pls be mindful the portions are tiny); chicken ? lasagna was definitely delicious and smth newThe packaging is great; you can tell they really put effort in making sure no spills are happening“
“Finally…authentic, delicious Dominican food that I don’t have to go into NYC to order. My gathering was such a hit , catering was the best! The pictures won’t do this place justice. It’s the taste of a hole in the wall I missed so much. From their chicharron (fried pork rinds), to classic mangu (mashed plantains) with cheese, eggs + sausage. I’m drooling just looking through my food pictures from them. This review is long overdue. Trey it for yourself you won’t regret it!! Did I mention how friendly they all are? The service was great too!“
“This is the best food in the whole world I cannot even explain how good the food is and how the staff is so nice the order is always right and the food come hot and warm the best part is that the food is affordable? definitely recommend this“
“Was pleasantly surprised when I first saw them open. Had been looking for a new place to eat and La Caridad 72 did not disappoint. The food is, in a word, Delicious!!! It's been a real joy sampling the many culinary delights found on their diverse menu. They have something tasty for every type of palette. Recently tried their beef stew and I can't stop thinking about the sauce. Utterly amazing!!! Between their wonderful food and their friendly, top notched staff, you can not go wrong dining at La Caridad 72. Bring your friends. Bring your family. Bring your kids. You WILL NOT be disappointed!!! Enjoy, I did :-)“
“This place is super convenient. But let's talk about the most important thing. The FOOD! I have had food here a few times and it never disappoints. Today I tried the Mangu. Absolutely delicious. The service is great. A small family run store that has all the necessities you need. A true gem. ?Kid-friendliness: I went in with a stroller and had no problem. The place is not too big however there is plenty of space in the entrance for that.“
“When I first came here, I didn’t know what to expect. I think the guy at the register was Dominican I asked him to put me on the top seller. He didn’t really do that. He just pointed me to the menu. I didn’t know what to expect my first time, but I tried pancakes with eggs toast because I wasn’t sure if the sausage was pork. A cheese and a beef empanada and a egg and cheese sandwich. “But I was blown away by the flavor. The food was so fresh.” 5 star for the food. I was expecting some more eggs with my pancakes, platter, and toast, but the food is good.“
“I've worked pretty close to this spot for yrs and never knew it existed (rarely take Broadway), my crew and I are working a job right up the street and decided to check it out. I've tried pollo guisado, carne guisado and of course pernil (I'd eat it everyday of my life if I could) and ea dish was outta this world. Empanadas, chicharron and maduro are all excellent too! The staff is always friendly, the food is always fresh/delicious/hot and the prices are more than fair. Once again...mom/pop spots reign supreme!!“
“I’ve been going to Rossy’s for years. Her food is authentic and delicious. I recently got a Dominican cake for a birthday and it’s honestly my favorite. It’s half guava and half crema. She does an amazing job making Dominican cake. I also got a cheese and chicken empanada which was perfectly seasoned and cooked. I’ve ordered food from her countless times and it’s always delicious and affordable priced.“
“The best Dominican food according to my boyfriend who is Dominican. I though it was great food. It was my first time here as I am not a local in this area and I have to say it was delicious 100 times better than the Dominican Restauraunt we are regulars at.“
“Omg this is my absolute favorite restaurant in NJ ! The space is very small but it definitely give the vibes of a small mom&pop restaurant in the New York. The food is delicious I would definitely recommend you try the garlic chicken and shrimp ?“
“I go to school across the street from this restaurant and I LOVE THIS RESTAURANT CUSTOMER SERVICE IS GREAT I FEEL SO WELCOMED EVERY TIME NOT TO MENTION THE TITLE QUEEN TACOS IS SO TRUE BUT NOT JUST THE TACOS THE HOT BAR FOOD IS SO FRESH AND DELICIOUS ALL GOOD VIBES!!!THE COOK IS SO NICE AND THE LADY IS AS WELL I RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT JUST FOR THE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!!

“The food in here is great, it tastes like a home made food in a Nice and quiet environment, there is a good breakfast selection you have to try..and the attention of their employees is like family, especially the manager Ana M. Come here very often as my first choice in town as I'm treated like family by attendants marlennys then and the overall staffThe food is delicious in a quiet and pleasant atmosphere as well as typical homemade food, the breakfast selection is very good and the employees make you feel like family, especially the manager Ana M who is a sweetheart, I come here very often as my first option to eat.“
“Pretty good place for authentic Dominican food. Prices are reasonable, though the food can sometimes be hit or miss. As I’ve been ordering the oxtail sometimes it’s extremely tender other times. It’s hard. As always the Cubano sandwich is always a quick bite one of the best. As for trying their many other dishes, they were all good such as the Don Miguel, the salmon and beef stew.“
“Pretty decent spot, not too far away from 46 which is good. Handicap accessible as the whole establishment is on one floor I had the sweet Thai chili wings extra crispy, and Lord were they amazing!! I was obsessed and so sad that I was done eating them Lol. The Bartender and Bar were super attentive and helpful. Love the service!Parking: Probably more than 20 parking spotsWheelchair accessibility: No steps all on ground level/one floor.“
“Just visited Gourmet Express Market for the first time to order empanadas for a party. The owners are so nice and helpful. They even gave me an empanada to try and I can see why the reviews are so good. The empanada was delicious. Can’t wait to serve the rest to my family and friends tonight!!!“
“(Translated by Google) If you are reading this it is because you know what you are looking for. I ordered Longaniza and chicken and beef chimi. If you come from Florida or out of state, come easy. There is plenty of light and it is very clean.(Original)Si estás leyendo esto es porque sabes lo que andas buscando. Pedí Longaniza y chimi de pollo y res.

“The chicken with spicy guava was tasty a little to sweet ? I was looking for garlic on my testones. The kids enjoyed the chicken fingers though. And the cocktaiks were delish. I'll visit againOh, i had the shrimp in red sauce yummy, the beans n rice were good. The service was okay a little scattered and a little long on some things but okay“
“I came here a few days ago and I had a great experience, very clean, cozy and good vibes. Excellent customer service, food and juices, the manager Cinry took care of me and I was really happy with her vibe. Thank you guys for the great experience, I’m coming back very soon!!!!?“
“The food is awesome. It is very fresh. I went right when it opened and I got a little meal for $5. I was so shocked because I haven't had that price in years! The owner is super kind. The place looks old but very clean. Also there is way more stores surrounding that area now. I live in New York so Im definitely going to travel there again to have a joyful time enjoying some authentic food.❤️“
“this is the best Dominican restaurant In New Jersey the food is always good, I moved to NJ from NYC summer 2022 and was looking for a authentic Dominican homemade style restaurant and after trying different places and different restaurants went to many different cities I saw a tiktok suggestion of this place went on a drive because let me tell you it is a 25 min to go and 25 to come back but the mofongos and yaroas are worth it, you also should try their Plato del dia la ensalada mixta is a most, other than that the place is always clean and the people is very friendly, i love it!!“
“This place is amazing the food is more than five stars if I could give them 100 stars I would. It’s very delicious very fresh so clean I love how they did that place, So modern ... I’m in love with the new place. !!!! And they have coffee I highly recommend“
“It's great place to try out !!!!! At first I wasn't to sure, I don't like eating much Spanish restaurant but my own cooking ? but I gave it a try and let me tell you, I try to go at less 2 or 3 times a month....My family and I love going, the price for the amount of food we get! no where else ! And everything taste Divine, ?The price is just right!!!DON'T WASTE NO MORE TIME AND GO ...Kid-friendliness: If your child doesn't like loud music, it's not the place or you can ask the owner if she would be kind to lower it, which I don't see why notParking: It's a busy area, but we always find parking, just gotta have a little bit of patient when looking for parking.“
“Everything was soooo good!We had the longaniza, morcilla, buche & chicharrón, it was all fried to perfection. That morcilla ??My Chimi de res was perfect! The guys in the truck were very nice and service was fast! We are totally going back “
“I finally had a chance to try this spot. Sometimes as a African American you have trouble in places but not this place. It was clean and the service was friendly. I ordered 2 things the stewed chicken both were ample and good. The price for both platters was affordable. Good spot to check out. Ps get some pepper steak on the menu.“
“Our horseback riding journey through the Dominican rainforests and beach was nothing short of enchanting. It allowed us to connect with nature, create lasting memories, and appreciate the simple joys in life. This experience will undoubtedly remain one of our most cherished family adventures.“
“Cositas Ricas Bakery has been a life saver!! The Domincan cake I ordered was the sensation of the party. We were celebrating my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary and needed the cake to be mostly in gold. Evelyn with her wonderful ideas manged to bring the cake to life the day of with this authentic Dominican cake. We all loved it. Thank you so much Evelyn! We will definitely be ordering from you from now on. Your shop is beautiful. God bless you in your creativity and future.“
“Space is limited, if possible I recommend buying to go. However, we were a group of 6 and the ladies kindly helped us accommodate two tables. The food was delicious, and the portion was more than enough. Perfect to get out of the fast food routine to eat something more homemade. I would definitely go again“
“This food is delicious and true to Dominican food! It is incredibly hard to find authentic DR/PR food in Newark area. Customers service is cool, you are greeted properly. They're usually very busy near weekends. I had the pork mofongo, the chicharron with rice and beans. Everything is flavorful and seasoned well. The portions are well rounded and filling. Price point is great. I'll definitely be back to try Empanadas, chicken etc. It's nice to finally get some real Dominican food around here! I ate it so fast I didn't take a flick, maybe next time.“
“Used this restaurant for my Dads party. Placing the order was smooth, they accepted payment over the phone and they were willing to work with me on pick up time. Food was ready when I arrived and our guests could not stop raving about how good it was!Thank you !“
“I live in the area and happened to walk by this place on the way to another but decided to detour. Boy was I surprised and happy with my decision! I ordered chicken tostadas (you get 4!), chicken chilaquiles, queso empanadas and fries. Everything was delish! The salsa verde on the chilaquiles was so tasty and the chicken was so flavorful! The portions were generous and the staff was incredibly nice. This is definitely going in my rotation of take out places!“
“OH! MY! GOD!!!! I just ate there today for the first time taking a risk and OMG it was SO GOOD!!! Also, the restaraunt is very clean and I love the decor on the inside. Small, intimate, but very nice and welcoming. I had fried fish and Yuca and it was absolutely divine“
“Mannys is a family owned and operated restaurant so the atmosphere is very friendly and everyone seems to know each other!! They make u feel welcomed and appreciated which is hard to find nowadays. My favorite dish is the stewed chicken w/veggie rice. The small take out box is only $7 but can easily feed 2. The large is (I believe) $9, and both come with a handful of yummy plantanos. The chicken literally melts in ur mouth and they use just the right amount of seasoning so its not too spicy for those of us who don't like spicy food!! Lunch/dinner at Mannys is always a pleasureable experience ? !!! Neighborhood isn't all that bad as other reviews mentioned, however, parking will b tricky!! Overall - ★★★★★“
“Gourmet Lunch is amazing! Please go in to the door on the left "Gourmet". Maria makes the best food, and it is fresh every day. The menu changes depending on what she has, so you can call ahead if you would like to know. She usually has meat, chicken, 3 types of rice, plantains, vegetables, beans, and sometimes shrimp. I'm sure the side selections may change during the seasons. The meat is so tender, and the chicken so flavorful. Maria and group are so sweet and genuine too. I am happy to support this business, and so is my heart and stomach.“
“Had the food at a birthday party earlier in Dec. Was so good then we placed a very large catering order for Christmas Eve. With so many picky eaters, the food was a 10 out of 10. Drove nearly an hour to pick up and worth every minute of the drive and gas. They actually mistakenly left off a tray that we paid for in the Xmas eve chaos. They sent it to us via Uber! Talk about great service in a crazy holiday! We really REALLY love this food!!! A hundred thank yous for making our holiday family party a huge success!!!“
“Loved this restaurant!! The food was AMAZING, from the empanadas, to the mofongo, to the tres leches! We had a large table (9) and everyone absolutely loved their meal. The portions are big, which was great for the price. The ambiance was also great, as they played great music. They also put the birthday girl's picture on the menu he which I thought was such a nice touch. The service was as phenomenal, our waitress was patient and super sweet! I will definitely return soon. Restaurant is small, so I suggest making a reservation if it's more than 2 people.“
