Food was great...well seasoned. Price is reasonable. I will return and try other items off the menu. It is cash only, which can be a nuisance for people who really don't carry cash. read more

Delicious food and great service. We found this little hole in the wall restaurant while on a family road trip. Best decision! Be prepared as they only take cash. ATM inside. read more

Don Hugo's - Mini Bandeja Paisa - Spanish Near Me - Newburgh, New York

It is a small place like others said that more suited to to go rather than eat in. The owner was very nice and friendly, he made sure to ask what I wanted for my menu and if needed forks or hot sauce and made my food in less time than he said. Very nice to see an owner have pride in their business rather than letting employees be the face of business. So the food, the steak was grilled just right and still tender,juicy and well seasoned. Yellow rice I was bit skeptical on it by the appearance, but it was very good, not salty and seasoned just right with it fluffy and not mushy. For both empanadas I enjoyed them both same and found them flavorful and had plenty of meat. They are small but for the price they are a steal. Also found them out less greaser than other empanadas, and boy does that help the stomach. Hah. A final note, really like homemade salsa hot sauce cups he offered, it was a perfect blend of spicy with a vinegar bit afterwards. Definitely was great dipping the empanadas In it. read more

****CASH ONLY**** This place is incredible, a hidden gem. I can't believe I haven't been here before. Small joint with only four tables. So a large party would be really tough here. The food outstanding though; it felt like a home cooked meal. Everything was perfect and I would change nothing about it. The jugos come in a large to go cup which I've never seen. All the food tasted fresh and packed with a ton of flavor. The empanadas were excellent, even though they were mini. It's actually the perfect appetizer to get the stomach going hahaha. If you get empanadas make sure you try it with the hot sauce (the red one). These guys are legit and I'd be in trouble if I didn't live 45 minutes away. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Can't wait to go back! read more

Everything is super flavorful and authentic tasting! Some of the best Colombian food I've had in awhile. Their "Bandeja paisa" is amazing and worth every penny. It consisted of grilled steak, chicharron, a fried egg, maduros/sweet plaintains, rice, beans, and avocado. I can't stress enough how well-seasoned and flavorful each bite is. My husband and I also enjoy ordering a side order of tostones and a side order of chorizo whenever we're there. We've also tried their lengua (tongue), lomo salteado (beef, onions, peppers), and cholado (a dessert drink with fresh fruit and a variety of yumminess). You can't go wrong with any of their items. I would highly recommend. The prices are affordable and they have pretty decent sized portions. The restaurant itself is not a huge place but its comfortable and cozy with a few tables for sit down dining. If need, you can always order food to go. While sitting down to eat, we always see people come in to order food and go. Their drink selection isnt too bad. Theres a nice variety to choose from (sodas, snapples, aloe, etc). In regards to parking, there is NO parking lot but there is usually enough street parking right out front and close to the restaurant. **please note that the restaurant is CASH ONLY** read more

EATS: Chicken in Creole Sauce Overall, I enjoyed the food. The value is amazing for portion size. read more

This is a local favorite for "quick" Spanish cuisine. The place feels more like a fast food (Spanish) take out joint. They only have two small tables in the store with 4 seats to each table. I've been here several times & have never seen anyone else dine in as I have so it shouldn't be too much of a concern to find no seating. Pricing is slightly above $10 per person for the main dishes but be careful with the sides as the quantity might not be what you expect. I paid $3 for ONE fried banana that came with about 5 slices which I thought was absurd considering those bananas cost 5-6 for $1 in the supermarket! If you stick to the main dishes for about $10-$15 you'll get the best value for your money. The food is really good I just think the side dishes are over priced in my opinion. If you're looking for a true dining experience there are other spots in the area that have ample seating for small and large groups. read more

This is the spot, the flavor is beyond delicious. Don't be put off by the appearance. Four tables and some nostalgic displays from Ecuador. Opens at 12, but things don't start cooking till 12:30. Hugo is a friendly guy to deal with. He takes pride in his cooking. The main dishes are reasonably priced. The side dishes are kind of expensive. I eat here quite often, and I never leave disappointed. Street parking is available right in front. The location isn't in the best of areas. Park where you can see your car. read more
