Honestly very expensive but the food was really good and tasty. They can use another server to maintain the floor. Waiting to sit in an almost empty space is ridiculous. Happy hour I drank better drinks in less. Finding parking wasn't bad. The place was clean but there were items on their menu that were not available. It's good for kids/family and good for renting out the back space. Wasn't one of my favorites. Food: 5/5 | Service: 4/5 | Atmosphere: 4/5 read more

Jenavies Cafe - Pork chops, maduros, rice & beans - Latin American Near Me - Bronx, New York

Horrible experience had a reservation for 4 my family went in and place was empty the waitress very unfriendly asking if we had reservation. We sat for about 12 minutes she did not ask if we wanted something to drink. Horrible experience and she was laughing with another employee as we were walking out. The only reason why I put one star was because it was the only way to leave a revie. Management must not care of their customer service. Terrible would not recommend!!! read more

I must say that the Bronx has a hidden treasure! amazing fresh food, popping music, excellent atmosphere, and awesome service. My girl loved their oreo milkshake the most but my favorite was the mofoguito with chick and cheese...a must!! thank you guys for the great experience! read more

The food is very appealing to the eye. I had buffalo wings and the shrimp mac and cheese. The machine in cheese tasted regular, they use those lil frozen shrimp that you get from the super market. They wings was pretty tasty. read more

The restaurant says it opens at 1, but i called and they told me i had to make a reservation they suggested 1:15. Which is fine but there was no one inside so im not sure why the 15mins made a difference. They take your creditcard and id when you sit down as if you are in a club or something It was very cute inside and our waitress was nice, the food wasnt anything special. A few restaurants in the area serve the exact same chicken tenders and waffle fries so im assuming they buy from the same place. The burger was good compared to the wings and chicken tenders. . The milk shakes were really good but pricey at $16, I personally think this place would be better for just deserts and milkshakes. Then this is the annoying thing, the menu stated (i think 18%) gratuity will be added on order over $50 which is fine, a little stupid on their part because i work in a restaurant and tend to tip more then 18% but whatever. Then she brings over the tablet to sign and says that this option to tip is separate for the barista who made the shakes, so asking to tip twice but the percentage was of the whole check (which included the milk shakes to begin with) not just the milkshake prices which is a little sneaky in my opinion. Probably wouldn't eat food here again, but would maybe come back for a milkshake or desert. read more

This is my third time going to this restaurant with my daughter she loves it here . This is definitely a spot to take your little ones . Make sure you make reservations before you go as reservations are required and there space is pretty small . We went on a Thursday evening around dinner time my daughter got the chicken tenders with fruity pebbles waffles which she really enjoyed . My boyfriend and I got the appetizer platter it included 4 chicken tacos , French fries , slider burgers , 10 piece wings ( You can choose your flavor with the wings we split them half regular half sweet chilli) I give the platter a 6/10 the wings were the best thing on the tray the burgers were not the greatest neither were the chicken tacos both could have used a bit more flavor . The best part Overall we're the crazy milkshakes we got the small ones which came in to go cups and they were all delicious . Over all I say this place is mainly for the kids and the cool milk shakes . The customer Service here is also great and very welcoming as well as over the phone they were very friendly even when I had to push my reservation time up a few they did it with no problem. read more

I ordered the $50 platter and a side of mozzarella sticks; the burgers and BBQ chicken were very plain. They had almost to little, no taste. I've never had a chicken taco before but they were pretty good. There are no fountain drinks; the drinks are a can of soda priced at $2. At the end of our meal, we ordered two shakes. They weren't as good as they were hyped up to be. The tip was automatically added onto the receipt (20%) which is something i'm not too fond of because our waiter didn't provide the best service. read more

Meh... Firstly I have to say that the young lady that helped us was very nice and this review doesn't have much to do with the staff but more the management, and quality of what you're paying for. We didn't know that reservation were needed but they still accommodated us by calling us to cover for a reservation that had canceled. Again, the staff was nice. My thing is if reservations are needed you should be able to gage how busy you'll be to have proper staff for the amount of people you'll have during your busy time. I was wrong .... There was a pretty large birthday party that had ordered before us. So,we didn't receive our order for a while. The staff did let us know the food would be awhile after taking my debit card and ID, which they do ask for before receiving our food because of previous dining and dashing. That should maybe have been a sign. Oh, and it was extremely loud. We could hardly hear what we were saying to each other, so we kinda just stood on our phones which definitely defeated the purpose of having a family dinner outing. The food is basic at best. We got their platters. Cost range from $44 to 59. We got the $44 platters. Those consisted of chicken wings, sliders w/ just cheese, and fries. More than half my sons platter was French fried , good French fries but still half the platter was French fries. That means I paid about $22 for fries. We also got the bacon Mac and cheese. Just roll over that option, it wasn't good. Total bill was $162 plus some change with included gratuity. Again that means I paid $162 for fries and chicken wings, and some Snapple's . They do have fancy milkshakes that we did not try. Maybe those are worth it? ‍ All and all,it's cute for some IG pics and maybe a 10 year olds birthday but not for a real dining experience. read more

This is probably the best Spanish food I've ever had the place is kind of confined but overall it's worth it . Best Milkshakes in town !! read more

Amazing food their fries are really good and their milkshakes are delightful and the service is really good to

This is definitely a good place for parties, for ice cream, for lunch. I appreciate the staff that accommodated us last minute party of 25. The food was hot each tray better and fresher than the last. The sundaes were AMAZING! I enjoyed it. The staff were friendly and inclusive even singing happy birthday. I really appreciate it and my group home did as well. Amazing service! Love you guys see you soon!!! read more

Super cute concept, reminds me of Black Tap in Manhattan. The service was definitely lacking though. We had to wait to be seated because they weren't cleaning tables for the next customers until they had to. The music was a little loud so maybe this was why, but our server couldn't hear what we were saying. For a restaurant that makes milkshakes their staple thing, I had to ask for the milkshake menu and was told that there were not enough for everyone. I mean, make more, but if there aren't enough, just take back menus once the customers finish ordering. We waited maybe half an hour just to get water. Someone was banging ice on the floor next to us. Our food took forever. I definitely regretted going hungry. Overall, I probably wouldn't go back unless major changes are made in terms of service, but they still get three stars for being a unique place in the Bronx and because the food was yummy. read more

Let me start first on positive note. Love the concept. Especially great for the area since there's nothing like this except in Manhattan. They have potential if they fixed a few things. Service was terribly slow. 20 mins to be seated. Extra 15 mins for the food which is fried food. Flash fry takes only 5-7 mins at most. Food was good but nothing amazing. Granted I only order wings and cheese fries. But they charge $17 for 12 wings!!!! And then the cheese fries are fries with a cup nacho cheese sauce. Like c'mon really if you gonna charge $6 make it amazing gooey cheese fries heck throw on some bacon. Make it worth $6! Price was too high as I explained about the wings and def the milkshake. Yes the shake was super tasty and beautiful presented but $16!!! I think a fair price would be $12. Like I said in beginning def nice to see something different this area. I want them succeed hopefully they read their reviews. Also place lacks decoration. It's nicely painted red black and white. However I think if they made it more kid friendly putting cartoon characters or superheroes they would def attract more families. And more families means more milkshakes which equals more money!!!! read more

This place was cute, but very small. Be prepared to wait if you do not have a reservation. Expected better service for spending so much. Went for my husband birthday told them and all he got was a sparkler candle, super weak for the amount of money spent not even a slice of cake or something. Cool for one time experience. read more

Yummy! My daughter and I tried the 3 Piece Pernil Mofongito and the 3 Piece Bistec Mofongito. It was so tasty and filling. We also tried the Patacon sandwich... so, so yummy and very very filling. I would definitely recommend you trying this place out. We will definitely order from there again and trying other stuff on their menu. Let me add, our second time ordering was through Grubhub and I have to say their delivery was on time. read more

Customer service was horrible. We ordered milkshakes with our food and told the waitress three times and asked twice. Everyone who came after us had their milkshakes and we didn't receive ours until we packed up our food to go. They kept telling us the ticket was in and it was next. One of the waitresses took my card and just tossed it on the table and they added their own gratuity which was high for their poor customer service. read more

More like 4 1/2 stars, yet this tiny little spot in a corner spot of The Bronx, should be told how good they are. The overall experience was pleasant and the prices are reasonable , the place is a bit tight yet the cozy ambiance of the diner was one that my family and I enjoyed and will be looking forward to heading back someday soon. read more

Went there yesterday!! Pre- Easter shin dig & it was amazing. Music to the food.. Atmosphere was dope. Franklyn is definitely a cool waiter!! Hidden gem with great eats.. family time was well spent! read more

Food was solid 3/10, couldn't even drink out of the shake bc of the weird straws, employees in their own world not helpful at all, definitely not worth 100$+, also if you pay with card they automatically make you give the waitress' a generous tip ($20+) even though they literally don't help or assist their customers read more

We came here on a Saturday, the wait was RIDICULOUS! We were a party of 7, 4 adults and 3 kids. They told us it was an hour wait to be seated so we decided to go shopping and return in an hour. We came back after the hour and had to wait another 45 minutes. At this point, I no longer wanted to try the food. The food was okay, can't complaint. I don't know if it's worth the amount of money because it's basically fried food but it was good. The service was also good, I would say our waitress cater to us with the exception of bringing napkins to our table. Would I came back here? Sure, but not on a weekend. read more

We took the trek from Queens during the 'Rona! The best decision ever!!! Kimberley hooked us up!!!!!! We got the slider platter, extra wings, milkshakes and tostones. We ate in the car on the way back to Queens!! We will definitely be going back. read more

The food took forever to come out. We ordered 2 milkshakes and we waited for an extra 55 mins (after we finished our food) they only brought one milkshake out. So I asked the waitress where the other one is... this lady said that they only put in the order for one when we clearly told them 2. So then I asked her for another one and she literally said it was gonna take another 55 mins to make and she was rude. We didn't drive all the was from Riverhead for this type of service. The food wasn't good either, made me nauseous. read more

Went there today ordered a couple of things Shrimp mofonguitos 3 piece 10 dollars. It was horrible 2 or 3 baby shrimp with cheese Milk shake was about 16. it was to go so it wasn't all dressed up like it would of been but the cup was small definitely should be cheaper..it was a bad experience i wont be returning read more

The place is way Too small, wait time is so long and it wasn't worth it. Very over priced and the staff was not attentive at all. I was hyped to go but wouldn't go back not even on a slow day read more

I have seen pictures of food from this place on Instagram for years and I've always wanted to come here. It was disappointing. I was on my way to New York and I saw this place was only a few minutes out of the way so I had to stop. There is very little parking. Also the place itself is very little. I think they change their menu often because I've seen pictures of food from here that they don't have on the menu. The service is very slow. I ordered the buffalo wings, cheese fries and xtreme cotton milkshake. The buffalo wings aren't even full wings they are wing pieces so it's like actually getting 3 wings. The 6pc wings are $8.50 which is way too expensive. I've been to restaurants where you can get 6 full size wings not pieces for $8. The wings didn't taste bad but they just tasted like regular buffalo wings, nothing special. Cheese fries were $5 and didn't taste bad but they don't give you a lot of fries and they are very skimpy on the cheese sauce. I also got an xtreme cotton milkshake. It was delicious and looked very good but if I would have known it was $16 I wouldn't have gotten it. It says it on the sign but I didn't see it until I was leaving. $16 for a milkshake in a small glass is ridiculous. I don't live anywhere near here but if I was ever in the area again I wouldn't come back. read more

I had been wanting to try this place for their milkshakes, and decided to get food as well. Took my son and niece with me. First of all..............even though the burger was good, it was not worth the price, $12 - $14 or more for a burger and fries, Really? And the cheese sauce was a just a cup of nacho cheese. Second.........it took them over 20 mins to cook the food, service was very slow. It does not take that long to cook a burger and fry some fries. Third............the milkshakes were nothing special. Regular milkshakes with some store bought cookies, cakes, and ice cream cookies. The bits that had in and on the cup had a freezer burn taste to it. My Son and I had the cookie tasty and my Niece had the Oreo blast. Also they charge you extra for the toppings. If you presented as if this is how it comes, why am I paying to that slice of store bought cake or store bought ice cream cookie? For all that, plus the taste of the milkshake, I could have done it myslef! We all thought it was a waste of time and my money. Smfh Totally not worth it at alllll! Would not - Will not recommended to this place. Unless you like spending your money on useless things. read more
