    I came across this place by accident. I'd never heard of this place before but still gave it a chance. And boy, let me tell you that it was the best decision I made that day. It is a small place with a few tables. Their service is good and the atmosphere is just plain and simple but beside all that their food is amazing. It taste great, it's fresh, it's clean, it's worth it. I ordered the Lomo Saltado and the Leche de Tigre ceviche and it took me straight to tastebuds heaven!!! I was not disappointed at all. Yes, I will definitely keep going back for more. I recommend this place.

    I love the food at El Sombrero, their daily $6 special is a great deal. It includes an appetizer (the ceviche is delicious!), entree and a drink. The hosts are great, they definitely give off a nice family vibe, which goes great with their home cooked meals.

    Amazing Peruvian and Mexican food, tasty and cozy spot. Come after a day in the spa!

    I didn't know what to expect when I wandered into the location 69 and bergenline, but this spot quickly caught my eye I'm glad it did as the ceviche here was excellent and the hospitality matched up. The first ceviche l tried (mixed seafood) was fresh and had plenty of spice, just as I was hoping for (they made it extra spicy per request). Because we didn't know that portion so big we decided to indulge ChaoFao Mariscó was a great recommendation by very friendly and knowledgeable Eufemia and see food sop it's to die for! Im so glad that I leave around aria and will certainly be in the rotation when l make it or order delicious food delivery! They also have a full bar! we try very rich sangria! Everything was delicious! Highly recommend!

    Waiting almost two hours for two plates of rice with no follow up calls. If you want your food COLD, come to this place. Service not good.

    Service here was great, it was pretty dead so we were sat immediately and were adequately checked…read moreon throughout. staff was exceptionally nice. ambiance in here is great, the interior is upscale but homey and we enjoyed the music they played the entire time. i loved the esquite with truffle, it was fantastic. tons of reall truffle and truffle flavor, i've never quite had anything like it and it was my favorite esquite i've ever had. The guac was good but could use a bit more salt, i wish they had chiccarons as chips instead of tortillas but the chips were great so wasn't a big issue. overall though expensive for some pretty average guac in my opinion. the seabass crudo was great, i loved the sauce and the mango went great with it. Super fresh, super tasty. Unfortunately the tacos were a mess, when it arrived the tortillas were so soggy that they were just coming apart, the meat was also falling off and overall the presentation was horrendous. the tacos weren't balanced as well, there were some with too much meat and then some with basically only cheese. overall flavor was not birria im typically use to but it was solid. honestly these tacos are probably the worst tacos i've ever had, for $20 it's a travesty. overall for a place nearby i'd come to get some drinks and the crudo and esquite because those were fantastic. but i'll pass on their tacos hard.

The bright blue exterior and the nicely decorated interior was a pleasant sight to see in Union City! They weren't busy at all and we got right to ordering. The Tostada VIP Ceviche was super tasty. It was bright, citrusy, tangy, creamy, and slightly spicy. The scallops, sea bass, and shrimp were all insanely fresh. I loved every bite. The avocado was a must as it added a different texture and freshness to the bite. The portion seemed small for ~$30 but I enjoyed the dish. The Birria Sinaloense Tacos were delicious! Savory & rich in the best way but honestly, they could've added more meat or even a 4th taco. The tacos were satisfying, the consomé was so comforting and the salsa brava was delicious. Good try!
