It wasn't busy on a Saturday afternoon so we were seated quickly. We made a reservation just in case. We started with drinks and I got the Summer Spritz and she got the Lychee Martini. Neither of us liked the drinks. It was not drinkable. It tasted like straight up liquor. I asked for a new drink and my friend felt bad so she kept hers. The staff were very nice and accommodating I will say. Unfortunately I received my mimosa and noticed dirty marks on the rim of the cup. Not sure if it was from the rag but I had to ask for a new one. I hate to be that person but it freaked me out! For food we ordered the chicken and waffles, and french toast and sausage. The food wasn't the worst but not worth the money in my opinion. Sausage was overly salty and french toast was soggy. Flavor was there though. I really wish I liked it because I love a local(ish) spot and the space was super cute and rustic but it missed the mark for me.

Franklin, the owner, was very nice and steered me to some great choices. I got the beef and cheese and the beef chimichurri, both outstanding. I am saving my guava and cheese one for later but it also looks good. While the empanadas were delicious, the generous portions of sauce complemented quite nicely and kicked it up to another flavor level. The pink Siracha is creamy with a kick. The chimichurri sauce is very fresh with lots of garlic. You can pick up to three empanada and two sauce flavors for the meal. The store looks empty but if the door is open, walk in and someone will be out from the back. I had dogs in the car so i waited outside and Franklin was nice enough to bring the order out, as well as with my sunglasses which i had left on the counter. I will definitely be ordering from here many times to come.

The empanadas are made to order so expect a little wait. I thought it was on the expensive side, but it was a better empanada than some other places that barely put any meat. Flavors were good - next time i'd probably go with just cheesesteak and chimi sauce. Other things were just okay, probably wouldn't try them again. Friendly service, I'd stop by again when the craving hits.

Well, now. Finding truly authentic Venezuelan cuisine wasn't on my 2026 bingo card (as the cool…read morekids say), but I'm definitely stamping this square. Dios mio, what a meal! There was not a bad bite to be had. We might've cut the roofs of our mouths with the crisped-to-perfection Patacón, but I don't care--I think all sandwiches should be encased in fried plantain instead of bread. And the succulent pernil filling? Dios mio otra vez! Though, tbf, when is pernil ever a bad choice? Then there was the stuffed-to-the-brim Cachapa filled with carne mechada and Venezuelan cheese. It was enormous. Like, Jesus pulling from the neverending fish basket enormous. It never ended. We had to take it home. But before we did, I practically ate all of the arepa, which was the sweetest, bursting-with-corn-flavor arepa I've ever had outside of South America. It was so good, I practically cried with every bite. Tears of corny joy, mind you. We got an entree of grilled fish (Filete de Pescado a la Plancha), which came with a complimentary side--in our case, arroz amarillo cuz I gotta have my grains. The fish was perfectly crispy on the outside, meltingly tender on the inside. As with everything else, it was also way bigger than it had any right to be. Finally, we ended with what we THOUGHT would be a small item--the Arepa Arcoiris Llanero--but we were mistaken. It was stuffed so full of fresh avocado, shredded chicken, and various veggies that it had to be further encased in a paper wrapper for fear of the arepa wrap giving up on its job. We didn't make it more than a few bites before having to regretfully pack it home, but those few bites were chef's kiss. Venezuela has long been on my bucket list (who doesn't want to see Mount Roraima or Angel Falls?), but until I can get there, I'll be more than happy to "settle" for coming to this beautifully modern paradise of culinary delights. Throw in the huge portions and unbelievably low prices, and it's kind of a no-brainer to make the trip.

In my quest to explore the various cuisine scenes throughout Jersey City and specifically the Heights, I finally made my way to Angry Archie's. I'd seen them on my previous exploratory walks and possibly saw them with a food truck at a nearby park event. However, it was the fact that they sold lobster rolls, and frankly, the marketer in me loved the graphic logo! Would I be angry or happy with Archie for my first lobster roll experience in New Jersey!? PURCHASE Angry Lobster Roll ($22.00): A massive amount of Maine lobster meat mixed with a spicy corn mayo all stuffed into a toasted bun, this was sufficient to split with my friend. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and the buttery toasted bun was truly the icing on the cake. It was pricey, but dammit it was so good! I would love to try the heated version next! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=72&select=goUcQr5lYWSZGJbXYKHnzg Angry Crab Cake Sandwich ($17.00): A bulbous lump of crab meat mixed with spicy aioli, drizzled with citrus crema, while rested on a bed of crispy arugula, and placed between a buttery toasted bun, this was more crab-forward in flavor as the other elements didn't stand out as much. Possibly if they used the same mix from the lobster roll, the taste would be more enhanced? Again, the bread was outstanding; seriously, I'd buy the bread as a side! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=72&select=l-4TdG2hdYIq98cTDexPnA Full Portion Parmesan Truffle Fries ($9.00): A massive portion size of long thick spud sticks covered in parmesan cheese, fresh herbs, and truffle oil with a side of garlic truffle aioli for dipping, this was a blissful meal on its own! And, although we used the aioli, it really wasn't needed or seemed overkill at this point. We had leftovers which weren't as good, so eat it while it was fresh! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=72&select=uUhKPVY-0yYo0Uhavagcqg Double Cheese Mac N Cheese ($11.00): An absurd amount of tender pasta mixed with a four-cheese sauce, shaved parmesan, and herbed panko bread crumbs, this was one of the best mac n cheese dishes I've ever had! The cheese level was off-the-charts, and the panko was an ingenious idea. This was enough for two meals if you ate it on its own. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=72&select=idy1dMFN72rKV_12nlFuEg SERVICE I placed the takeaway order online, arrived about five minutes early, and soon after a friendly young man behind the counter came from the kitchen with everything wrapped up and ready to go - perfection! PARKING (Varied; N/A this instance) This was an easy flat 20-minute walk from my friend's place. Otherwise, there appeared to be plenty of spots along the main drag of Palisade Ave. and all surrounding roads - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A simple layout https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=72&select=y5tIh_oEthczcPn2oM6SRg with a central order/pick-up counter that looked into the kitchen, a very legible menu https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=72&select=uo0dcsKpxRtaaKCYUf1RkA behind the counter, a dining bar with stools along the front window, a handful of tables, a hint of nautical decorations, and generally a really clean place. Plenty of natural lighting came through the large front window and door while recessed electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There were no TVs while music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&start=72&select=dI0QvZ2MaTIkFqGlAgh2iQ ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Angry Archie's was awesome, and I would definitely return to explore their menu even more! Hands down, the portion sizes were incredible, everything tasted amazing, the prices were very reasonable, and the service in our case was straightforward. And, I always loved supporting small businesses whenever possible. I found total value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $63.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS
