Restaurants in Union City

“My husband and I were in town to visit friends & found Vale's Kafe, The food was amazing, healthy portions, the coffe was perfect 😊and the service was great. The owners served us & they were so kind. The place was packed and I can understand why. This will definitely be a new place when we come back to visit.”

“Really good food. The homemade fries from scratch are incredible and the cherry pepper relish for the chicken sandwich will have me coming back. Run by really friendly, good people as well. I’ll definitely be back. Great lunch spot.”

“What a delightful surprise tucked away in a lovely side street in Union City. On a dog walk in the neighborhood, I wandered by only to return that evening. This menu is by no means standard, it introduces elements of northern Mexican cuisine with nuanced flavors to deliver a sophisticated plate. The same attention given to the culinary side of things is repeated throughout what I like to define as Spanish bistro. The owner Yannin and her son Justin have imbued their space with original touches, hidden nooks and happy, unobtrusive music; altogether a lovely experience whether in company or alone. A neighborhood treasure.”

“Absolutely love them! We went with Two Crepes for a school event we did and they were amazing aside from the deliciousness those crepes were! 10 out 10! Do recommend! Use them they are professional, on time, line of communication is prefect! Can't wait for our next event to use them again!”

“love this place, 2nd time ordering. first time was delivery and this time I picked up. the pho is so delicious and includes sauce and toppings. banh mi and spring rolls are also other favorites that i’ve had twice. will definitely come back!”

“Great sushi spot! The shrimp tempura was crispy, fresh, and delicious. Everything tasted great, the service was friendly, and the atmosphere was nice. Definitely recommend Hudson Sushi!”

“We had a very long drive from New Hampshire and when we arrived at our hotties and hungry the lady at reception offered us this place as they deliver.\nWe ordered and while we were settling into our room 45 minutes later we were called and they were in the lobby 👍\nEverything was great even the lasagna (which I make myself and am very critical of anywhere else) which was fantastic!!\nThe Philly cheese steak hero was authentic and the pizzas were out of this world and all delivered for a great price !!”

“Super friendly and pastries are delicious!”

“Amazing food, very clean environment. Great staff. Beyond reasonable prices!!!! Strongly recommend.”

“The BEST acai bowls in the world. I wish i could have this place out in breckenridge, it’s so amazing. The ladies are super sweet and accommodating. Genuinely highlight of my trip i went 3 times!”

“Without a doubt the best taco’s I’ve ever had! Cute neighborhood establishment. Really nice staff! Thank you! 🌮🌮🌮🌮❤️”

“This is an INCREDIBLE local cafe. I have gotten lunch here many times (I HIGHLY recommend the ham club sandwich) for a very affordable price. It's a great place to sit and work as there are a number of tables, bar seating, and a bathroom as well.”

“Love this place, looks like it was lifted from Brooklyn and placed in this corner. It’s cozy and very eclectic, uniquely furnished, has a bunch of tiny unique items scattered through the space for sale, like candles, flower vases, other small decorative item. More importantly they have a menu with a variety of beverages and pastries and I believe sandwiches (not quite sure if I saw sandwiches on the menu but definitely a variety of pastries). This is going to be my new goto spot”

“Their home-made hot foods are amazing as well as their sandwhiches and prices. It is closer than Hoboken for me as well! Been a fan favorite for years 🤩”

“Wow this place is Amazingly Priced for this Delicious Food. I went with the Spinach Calzone which was stuffed full of fresh ingredients. Plus this place has a great open air restaurant feel.”

“Popped in for some food after hitting the pool - everything was so fresh. I got the fritura and was blessed with a massive portion of fried, fresh, incredible meats, cheese, and plantains. The chicken was so moist and juicy, the chicharron was deeply flavorful and had me floored; truly so fresh, tasted like a mama made it for me. My partner got the pernil and it was also incredible. 10/10!!!”

“My Mexico to go is an amazing restaurant with plenty of seating and a friendly waitress who helped recommend dishes, and offered an amazing service. The waitress, (Dayanna) made sure to check up with me frequently to ensure I had everything I needed answering my request. The food is just a great as the service, with great portions that will leave you wishing you had more space in your stomach. Sauces are a plenty, and tortillas are offered complimentary with your plate, all for a cheap price. My Mexico To Go, has quickly become my go to spot whenever I want a delicious meal at a fair price with excellent customer service.”

“One of my favorite restaurants! I’ve been here several times and I always have a great experience. The place is beautiful, the atmosphere is great, and the service is excellent. They have a great variety of food, everything tastes fresh, and the drinks are delicious.

It’s a great spot whether you’re going with a small group or a larger group. They also have a bakery section with different options, which is a nice plus. My personal favorite is the beef cachapa — definitely something I recommend trying!

I highly recommend making a reservation, especially if you’re going with a group. Definitely one of my favorite places!”

“A must stop when we visit the area. Delicious!❤”

“All fresh and delicious good price too 👍👍”

“Great food at a great price! Friendly staff.”

“Service was top notch, the servers were eager to help us sit at our table AND they put a beautiful white napkin on our laps. Haven't seen that touch in a very long time. Food was worth every penny, delicious and also innovative takes on some standard food. I know that it's sometimes referred to as a sports bar but I found the closeness between the dining area and the sports bar area with lot and lots of gigantic screens ever changing colors and images was a bit too distracting. Great if you are there to watch a game but not to dine. Otherwise, a beautiful experience.”

“Stopped by for a sack of 10, double cheeseburger and a drink. The food was hot and fresh, the person at the drive thru window was efficient, professional and personable. Will always stop here when working in the area.”

“Hot bread is good and always tempting!”

“A great location near where I am, not only to go in person, but also for delivery. Staff member took care of me with coupons, and even got me a big discount for a six-inch footlong for only $2.99 plus tax. Can't be that.”

The portions were good, our waitress was friendly and welcoming, and the prices were very reasonable. Overall, great food, good service, and a lovely atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!”

“One of the best bakeries on the East Coast! The owner is super friendly and really nice! Try their delicious and fluffy authentic tsoureki—you won't be disappointed. Thank you so much Liberty Pastries! 💙🇬🇷”

“The food was delicious and the staff was so lovely! Loved it.

My eyes were burning in the restaurant from what I assumed was maybe onion cutting? 😅 But there's a great area outside to sit and eat so we did that!”

“I liked because the staff there is very happy and that is good in an establishment and the food is good although it was the first time I ate there what I did love were the potatoes uff a very good delight”

“One of the best hidden gems for authentic Dominican food. Fresh, homemade meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner at very reasonable prices. I paid around $13 for a lunch special and it was excellent. Highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic food without the fancy atmosphere.”

“The bowl was excellent and exceeded my expectations. The cashier at the front named Alex made sure that I got the best bowl and service. I can honestly say I’ll be coming here again. Amazing flavors and amazing staff.”

Highly recommend enjoying a relaxed cup of coffee ☕️ at Terry's!”

“The Pastor Pork Torta might be one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. The pork is super juicy and flavorful with sweet pineapple, plenty of guac, and the perfect level of spice. Loved it!”

“Omg omg yooooooooooo 100 out of 100 the only place that I’ve ate empanada de huevo en Dr but when I found so good cuisine omggggggg the brand that Dominican flavor back to me me and my co workers order from them and we are obsessed. Omg keep it uppp.”

“El Progreso is a cozy little restaurant, focused on typical Central American food and with very good service. I like to go, at least once a week, to share with my family the delicious tamales, baleadas, pupusas and tacos, accompanied by a delicious beet spice that they serve to their special clients. Tamarind and orchata waters are our favorites. Solidarity prices!”

“The coffee is very delicious ☕ like home, the food is delicious and the service is wonderful!!! There is only one detail, I know it as "Las Brisas Café"”

“I had breakfast at this cafe today and it was a great experience overall. We ordered breakfast along with fresh orange juice. The juice was freshly squeezed and tasted delicious, just like the food. The man at the counter was very friendly and also spoke English, which was helpful. The decoration of the place is also lovely.
The only downside was that the tables could have been a bit cleaner.”

“muy buena la comida deliciosa recomendado carolina excelente atención”

“Definitely they offer good and fresh food, the delivery time accurate, if they tell you 30 minutes it is. Humble people, that restaurant cares about its customers. I’m very picky about eating and this is my third time ordering from this Restaurant, and The Brasa from this location on New York Avenue exceeded my expectations. 👍🏼😋👏🏼”

“This place is very Cheers type vibe, everyone seemed to know and each other and enjoy each other. Cash only, but best prices in Hudson county if you ask me. You’re able to order food or bring food and they have bar pies if anything also. The Chinese delivery guy from the restaurant up the street, came in and got everyone even more cheery. Guy was about to play pool with his buddies before he got anther order.”

“Hermoso lugar. Visitando de Florida Bizcochos frescos. Yerba Canaria 🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐🥐”

“I brought a coconut cream cake with Cuban meringue frosting. It was absolutely delicious. My boyfriend has a sweet tooth, but is also picky with what he eats. I'm embarrassed to say him and I ate that cake (alone) in two days 😭. The service was very nice as well. It smelled like banging coffee in there lol. I need to try it next time. 10/10 I recommend ❤”

“Everyone is so kind and welcoming. We miss being next door. Went all the time for ice cream and cakes. Highly recommend!”

“Best place to eat peruvian food! They have the best Rotisserie Chicken, it has a lot of flavor and it's so juicy! The environment is very calm and small, not crowded so many people pick up food from here so maybe that's why it's never crowded. They are very busy with those pick up orders so I order my Chicken ahead of time before I arrive because those chickens be flying out of there. 😆 I love their green spaghetti which is so creamy and delicious, so make sure to order that because not many places make it the same.😋 Overall it's been my best whole on the wall type of restaurant that I invite people to and keep coming.”

“Excelente lugar para pasar un buen momento 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻”

“The food is amazing!! Very good and the owner very friendly”

“Best tacos in bergenline. If you want STUFFED tacos with a lot of meat/protein & get your money’s worth this is the place. double wrapped tacos, you technically get six tacos for the price of 3. so much meat that you eat it and it falls on the second shell & makes a second taco. great people as well. if your in union city this is a must have.”

“We ordered carnitas and shrimp enchiladas, they were both great! We were specially surprised at the generous amount of shrimp in the enchiladas and the salsa verde they were smothered in was very good.”

“A great spot to eat and enjoy”

“What an epic place. We drove over while visiting Hoboken and it was worth the trip. Super friendly staff, clean restaurant, large TV’s to watch the game- and the pizza was perfect!

“Top Deli & Convenience Store is a hidden gem! The variety of items they offer is impressive, and everything is always fresh and well-stocked.

“You MUST try the banana pudding, it was my favorite part of the meal, the brown gravy for the fries was also very good. I will be going back.”

“Hot bread is good and always tempting!”

“english and spanish at bottom review bottom if you're from el salvador youll get bad to mediocre service. they rather serve people with different ethnicityThe people in this establishment were extremely rude. My familyy came in and ordered and everyone around us got served before us after she heard us, mind you our waiter there telling his side they arrived after us.55 minutes later, ( we ordered 14 pupusas amd 1 soup.) table in front and behind a party of 8 people each received their rice steaks, seafood appetizers. When we asked the waiter about it, he came off extremely rude arguing trying to prove he’s right that and we’re in the wrong…he said the others came after but ordered first before us… not right! in reality all he had to do was apologize for the wait and find out how long till food comes out. he had a face like miserable…. he wasn’t happy working there, and the manager, an older blonde lady, didn’t even offer an apology. while talking to her our server was there too again being a lawyer. the lady really seemed she wasn’t interested in us since place was busy due to salvadorian parade. She just said to pay for our drinks and leave. What a disaster. Bathroom not as clean when they’re busy. toilet had splatters of crap on sear and floor was slippery. also some air freshener wouldn’t hurt. Place is tight space and dark. there are stairs inside to dining room and 16 steps downstairs to go to restroom. so if you’re in a wheelchair, good luck. place doesn’t look like its up to code. atmosphere is not that friendly and dark not enough lighting. mirrors are dirty in dining room. Food no chance to eat. Si eres de el salvador tendrás un servicio de malo a mediocre. Prefieren atender a personas de diferentes etnias. La gente de este establecimiento fue extremadamente grosera. Mi familia entró y ordenó y todos los que nos rodeaban fueron atendidos antes que nosotros después de que ella nos escuchó, tenga en cuenta que nuestro camarero le dijo a su lado que llegaron después de nosotros. 55 minutos después (pedimos 14 pupusas y 1 sopa), mesa al frente y detrás un grupo de 8 personas recibió cada uno sus filetes de arroz, aperitivos de mariscos. Cuando le preguntamos al camarero al respecto, se mostró extremadamente grosero argumentando que intentaba demostrar que tenía razón y que nosotros estábamos equivocados... dijo que los demás vinieron después pero ordenaron primero antes que nosotros... ¡no está bien! en realidad todo lo que tenía que hacer era disculparse por la espera y averiguar cuánto falta para que salga la comida. tenía una cara como miserable…. no estaba contento trabajando allí y la gerente, una señora rubia mayor, ni siquiera se disculpó. Mientras hablaba con ella, nuestro camarero también estaba allí como abogado. La señora realmente parecía que no estaba interesada en nosotros ya que el lugar estaba ocupado debido al desfile salvadoreño. Ella solo dijo que pagáramos nuestras bebidas y nos fuéramos. Qué desastre. El baño no está tan limpio cuando están ocupados. El inodoro tenía salpicaduras de basura y el piso estaba resbaladizo. Además, un poco de ambientador no vendría mal. El lugar es un espacio reducido y oscuro. Hay escaleras adentro que conducen al comedor y 16 escalones abajo para ir al baño. así que si estás en silla de ruedas, buena suerte. El lugar no parece cumplir con el código. El ambiente no es tan amigable y oscuro, no hay suficiente iluminación. Los espejos están sucios en el comedor. Comida sin posibilidad de comer.”

“Kevin digale al chef no poner mucha sal a las lentejas please.”

“Cubetazo is $33 and the margaritas at $16 in a plastic cup, too much. The music is fine.”

Overall, I enjoy visiting because I consistently have a good experience, and it’s one of my favorite places to grab a refreshing drink and a quick bite.”

“Went in around 12:25pm today, off the bat the outside of the cafe caught my attention and Ive been looking for a nice cafe to chill and have good food, this one did not disappoint!!!

They have a pretty great selection of food and I thought going in it was just a basic cafe but its so much better!! I had the juevos rancheros, and as a colombian I recommend we love eggs for breakfast.

The service was amazing and everyone was very kind and professional, brought me my food and drink and also gave me utensils when asked :)

10/10!!! Definitely coming back soon”

“I had the pleasure of enjoying freshly made cappuccinos by Lawany, Starbucks has nothing on her. I then proceeded to have fresh squeezed orange juice, also amazing. Now let’s talk about Jefferey the hands behind the cuisine. What’s 4 + 4 …. 8(ATE)… and that’s exactly what I did. From the soup the to steak with rice and beans. Chef's kiss.

The bar itself has been there since 52’ and these people took it over in 84’….. just reopened and I will definitely be stopping in a lot. No food yet but soon to come, for now a friendly bar. 10/10!!!!”
