    This is a small restaurant located in New Brunswick. Parking can be a pain but that's with most…read moreplaces in New Brunswick. My first time going there was on a BLAZING HOT day. I walked in and two super nice young ladies were making and serving the food. I appreciated that I was greeted right away and my order taken right away. If Yelp had star options for both the food and the service, I definitely would have given them 4 or 5 stars. I almost always go completely overboard when I try a place the first time. I picked up almost $80 worth of takeout so that I could try a little bit of everything. I really, really wanted to love the food here but I didn't. Unfortunately I didn't really find anything that I ordered that flavorful. The food wasn't bad by any means, it just didn't have the delicious flavors that I normally associate with great Puerto Rican food. As I mentioned it was an unbelievably hot day so maybe the cook was having an off day because of that. If I'm ever driving by there, I'd probably give it another chance since it has such great reviews from other people.

    I went with my friend who's familiar with authentic homemade Puerto Rican food. The service was…read moreexcellent and the food was authentic and delicious. I would definitely stop in again or order takeout from here. It's a nice family restaurant with authentic cuisine. Parking might be an issue since it's in middle of New Brunswick.

    We were around the New Brunswick area and found this colorful Mexican restaurant on Google maps but…read morewe couldn't find a review from Yelp. Pro's : 1. Great service / Attentive 2. Delicious food / affordable prices and good portion size 3. Complimentary chips and salsa served in a nifty French fry metal container 4. Colorful with lots of wall murals featuring traditional Mexican icons such as El Chavo and all the sitcom characters, Vicente Fernandez (Singer) and others 5. Bar section / Cocktails - Beer options 6. Lots of Mexican and Latin American music! The only con I can think of is that we asked for water with lemon and when the bill arrived we were charged $2 for each. Wish we were asked if we wanted tap or bottle water. Overall great experience and most importantly delicious meal. SPANISH/ESPAÑOL: Un resumen de mi reseña es que el servicio es muy bueno, los meseros muy atentos con los clientes eso nos encanto. La comida estuvo deliciosa, el restaurante es súper colorido y con todas sus paredes honorando iconos mexicanos como el chavo del 8, Vicente Fernández, etc Bastante opciones de cocteles para pedir, las tortillas o chips y salsa son complementarias (sin cargo extra) lo único negativo fue que al pedir dos vasos de agua con limón nos los cobraron $2 cada uno. No preguntamos si era agua de la pluma o de botella y tampoco nos preguntó el mesero pero la pasamos muy bien.

    Made reservations for my sister's birthday which is the same day as cinco de mayo, just a few days…read morein advance due to other Mexican restaurants not excepting reservations for that day- their lost. Stopped by one day ahead to make sure all was set- left a 200.00 deposit since our party was for 10pp, selected 4 apps and 2 pitchers of sangria (white and red) to set on table ready for the guest. They loved the red. We were setup in the first room which was perfect, not to be hidden in a corner - the locals might be a bit loud at the bar so don't be offended fyi. The food was great, as you know that I will call it out if it wasn't- served hot and a good portion. Service was also great from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave, great vibes and most of all the birthday celebration woke up everyone as they pump up the beat and sing happy birthday in English and Spanish with a shot of aqua ardiente! Plenty of parking and they also have an outdoor patio- keep up the great job and thank you for your great hospitality!

    Food was amazing. Had the red tilapia- crispy and tasty and nice presentation. Had calamari and…read morethe ceviche chicharron appetizers- delicious!

    Don't you love it when you pay reasonable prices for meals that can last you two days? Because I…read moresure do! This is my second time at the Noches De Colombia in Woodbridge. We came as walk-ins on a Saturday night and were able to get a table for two right away. They offer your traditional Colombian cuisine along with a full bar and bakery. The digital menus provide descriptions in English and have photos of every item, so don't worry if you can't speak Spanish. The atmosphere is incredibly lively, so it's perfect for celebrations. They have a DJ that pumps out some great Latin tunes! You can tell everyone (including the servers) are having a great time. Definitely not the place for an intimate conversation, so come earlier if you want to avoid a lot of noise. We ordered... *Pechuga A La Colombiana $18.95 - My entrée was grilled chicken breast topped with creamy mushroom sauce and maduros (sweet plantains). It came with the option of two sides, so I chose tostones (fried plantains) and arroz blanco (white rice). First of all, the portion size was HUGE... enough to be split into two meals!!! The chicken was seasoned with cumin, scallions, onion, and more. The tenderness of the chicken and the richness of the sauce paired so well together. The tostones were deep fried to perfection with a crispy and salty exterior. The white rice was fluffy and cooked with oil, salt, and garlic, which complemented the entire meal. *Bistec A Caballo $17.95 - A hearty dish! This was grilled steak topped with fried eggs, served in hogao (tomato and onion sauce). The steak was juicy, tender, and well marinated in a blend of spices. The hogao sauce was tangy, savory, and rich. We also got a side of frijoles (beans), which were really good. *Frozen Mango Margarita ~$15 - The drink was sweet and refreshing as expected, but the tequila was weak. It could've used another shot.... Or two. Noches has won me over with their great prices and generous portion sizes! It's now my go-to spot when I'm craving a satisfying Colombian meal.

The restaurant was laid out with tables to the right & left, a coffee/juice bar and a bakery section in the back. Since my Spanish is nil, I believe who was one of the owners helped us choose our meal. Peruvian Beef Stir fry with rice and fries & Pueblo Style fillet of fish (tilapia) I had plantains & black beans as sides. Both were portions for two people & absolutely delicious. I had a tamarind drink and my friend had a Batido Mango (made with milk) The staff were all sweet and helpful. We got to-go bags. The prices were very reasonable for what we got. After we paid the check we were given caramelo flan ~ we said we would never finish it - well we did! Pretty much licked the plate. Can't wait to go back! And since I watch Celtic, premier, euro soccer, have found a new place that opens early! Soccer was playing on the screens while there! Another plus. Definitely check this place out, they have traditional Costa Rican, Peruvian and Salvadoran dishes - just to name a few!!!
