Easy on the salt food is good but too much seasoning salt love it tho but can't enjoy the taste that's it

I worked at this restaurant many years ago. The owners are good people and food is always delicious and same sazon!

Food is always good. Portions are what to be expected. Staff is helpful as possible despite the area.

This place isn't the nicest place nor in the best neighborhood but it's definitely a hidden gem with some of the best authentic PR/DR around

Food is ok but the customer service is horrible , and its a bit overpriced i shouldve just went to mama elenas in paterson

I've been eating at this restaurant since I was in 8th grade. Very clean place and the food is AMAZING. Dominican food at its best with all the right "sazones!". I've eaten at this place 100+ times and do not understand the reviews of the first timers. It is obvious that these people are probably direct competitors to La Fe. read more

HORRIBLE customer service. Very rude to African American customers. & they purposely gave me the wrong amount of change back from a $20. My food came out to roughy 8 dollars and she only gave me around $6 back. Once I went outside and counted my money & realized that she short changed me, I went back..she looked at me for a moment and handed me extra money back without saying a word. Good food but the poor customer service and long wait times aren't worth it. read more

La Fe Restaurant - a chicken and rice dish - Caribbean Near Me - Paterson, New Jersey

Ordered on DoorDash. They hike the prices up and downsize the portions. What I received was not what was ordered. It doesn't matter if you go to the restaurant or order online their customer service leaves much to be desired. I give up...I'll NEVER spend another thin dime here. read more

I've been eating at La Fe for more than 7 years now and the food is amazing! The portions they give are huge and the prices aren't expensive. I recommend trying the Chicharrón and the Mangu, they are so good and the Ensalada Mixta is the Bomb! The place gets lots of people during he holidays and they take pernil orders for people who don't want to bother with it. The pernil is yummy and a lot but make sure to order it about a week in advanced so you get one (they go really fast)! read more

I had food from this place one day and had food poisoning which had me sick for a week and in the hospital. I mentioned that I got sick from a food joint in Paterson and a buddy of mine (without me telling him) asked if I happened to eat at La Fe. This place needs to be shut down. I called to file a complaint with the health department. I also work with Andre V. and a group of people at our job ordered and all got sick. The wrath of the gods came shooting out of my anus after I ate at this place. Stay away!! You have been warned. read more

One of the worst places to order food from ever! One Star is too good for them, This is a reason to have negative star ratings! No one place has made more people at my job sick than this. Beware, Avoid, Don't even proceed with caution, if you see it don't walk just run away. In other words...its not very good. read more

This place is absolutely disgusting! The service sucks, the chicken dry, and the beans come with hair. The health department should shut this place down read more

I don't understand the other review this place is Bomb.com every time I go their im always treated great and the good is Awsome. I guess you can't please everyone read more

Good great food . You def get a lot for your money. Every time I go to Paterson I visit la fe..

This restaurant is not sanitary. My mother bought some food from there on 3/14/10 and we all got food poisoning. My mom said the restaurant kitchen looked dirty but since she was with a friend who recommended it she felt bad and gave them the benefit of a doubt. I placed a status update on facebook about my food poisoning in this Dominican restaurant and one of my friends commented if I bought it at La Fe. I work for AT&T in Paramus and colleagues at my job have ordered from La Fe became very sick. This place is notorious for selling old expired food and cases of food poisoning. I contacted the sanitation department and they are going to be investigating. I have hospital discharge papers stating that we suffered from food poisoning. By the way my whole family had different dishes from the restaurant. Let that marinate. read more

This place is good to eat in i think what the others mean is either because it was a long time. Or they are haters

I just had the rice con Gandules and baked chicken... I was very happy with the service place is clean very nice people... I felt like I was back in the motherland... the food is very good home cooked meal is what they give you. I was very satisfy I'll be returning asap... read more

I don't get the bad reviews though I notice they are pretty old, maybe the place has changed hands since then, cause our office orders food from here almost every week and none of us have ever gotten sick. The food is delicious, I love their pernil. I've never been to the restaurant itself so I got nothing to say there but on the phone they are nice and delivery is pretty quick. read more
