This is a former sit down restaurant, that is no longer a sit down due to their high traffic. It's a very busy place for lunch and dinner. Food: Their Chicken, rice and beans is as good as it gets in Latino cooking over all. Service: This place does not take credit or debit cards, so your stuck paying twice as much for an ATM withdraw, like 6 dollars, 3 by the ATM and 3 from your bank. Really? Were in 2024. Atmosphere: if long lines and a bit noisy crowd doesn't bother you, then your fine. You can be in line for 20 minutes with an office person counting loads of cash due to the office pitching in for lunch and there is no credit card fast swipe, and a homeless man behind you in line to buy food with money he collected begging outside. There is no Ambience in this place to enjoy the culture. It's a grab and go spot like a bakery. Some say that the rotisserie chicken, rice and beans are worth it though. I'll leave that up to you.

I hadn't been there in a while, and I remember they had really good Spanish food. They were busy, which is understandable as I went after work, around dinner time. However, I was disappointed in the food this time around. Still good for something to grab on the go, but seems like they are starting to skimp on things like potatoes in the bean sauce, and green olives in the rice, etc. But charging more. The pastelillos are still good but the chicken ones were dry. Not something I was expecting from them. Could have just been a busy day, and they were off. That's what I'm hoping, so I'm still giving stars. I also really dislike that they are cash only, but they do offer an ATM for a fee. I'll have to go again to see if they really fell off or if it was just a bad day.

I haven't been to Niagara Cafe in a long while but the food is better than I remember especially the pasadillos. I'm half Colombian but the food is close to the Colombian food that I have eaten as a child. Muy bueno!
