Typically, these establishments are always a no for me because there are no options. One thing to note is that the place used to be located across the street. Used to be a bigger establishment with a small bar and more sit down tables. That's what you see on the Yelp reviews. This is a much smaller place that actually accepts takeout too. There are also fewer tables, so be prepared for that. I didn't realize that under after the fact. But anyhow, I went with the baleada with eggs. It kinda reminded me of a quesadilla, but it was quite yummy. It's a lighter palette with less beans and more of the plantains. Do get some hot sauce as it'll add a nice touch to the baleada.

We had learned that the bar hidden beneath the restaurant, Panela, had changed concepts from the…read moregeneral cocktail lounge, The Sinatra Room, to the tequila- and mezcal-focused, Perico Speakeasy. Since we were big fans of those alcohols, we decided to check it out. The walls of the space were covered in colorful murals with Latin American imagery. There were banquettes along either wall with small tables and ottomans scattered in front of them, providing separate, little areas for each group. Large playing cards were fanned across each table with Jack, Queen, King, and Ace cards each having a menu on its backside. There were bar bites, a spirits list, classic cocktails that could be reimaged with your agave spirit of choice (picture a tequila mojito), and even a custom beverages. The creative drinks were not cheap, coming in at around $20 on average, but they certainly were complex! My La Balacara featured Casamigos Mezcal, spiced pear, Luxardo, orange, ginger, chestnut honey, and a chili tincture. I thought the drink sounded outrageous, but, sadly, all I tasted was that honey, the ingredient of which I was least interested. In fact, the smokiness of the mezcal really did not play well with the chestnut honey, leaving it to taste sort of like licorice. I was not a fan. My companion's El Encanto included Casamigos Cristalino, Lillet Blanc, strawberry-lemongrass cordial, guava, and basil, which sounded herbaceous, but really just tasted like a fancy daiquiri. He enjoyed it, but I found it unimpressive. Our drinks were accompanied by a complementary bowl of spiced popcorn, which was delicious. We had come from an earlier dinner, so the snack was as much as I needed. However, the few larger food items that I saw others order all looked great. While I would go back to Perico to try some other items, I felt like I had had better, more affordable cocktails upstairs at Panela.

In the "build your own" option, I committed to the curveball premise by choosing Mexi-hummus over regular. In that vein, the Impossible kofta seems a better bet than the falafel, but I was quite impressed with the walnut chorizo. They clearly did their homework toward emulating the original, as opposed to places that mash up some black beans and call it a day. Delivery was brisk.

I can't believe I've lived without this in my life for so long!!! I had the Moroccan soup that had a tangy tomato base with rice and chickpeas, mouthwatering falafel, miti miti (turmeric rice & baby spinach), black bean & yams, lentils & carrots, avocado aioli, whole wheat pita and last but DEFINITELY NOT LEAST cabbage salad . Don't get me wrong I do love my fruits and veggies, but I am a meat and potatoes kind of girl, and I can honestly say I didn't miss the meat at all. It was all incredibly filling and delicious. This is definitely my new go to spot!

I'm working now in Hoboken, and, although my families, both genetic and non-genetic (I'm adopted),…read morefor the most part originated in Jersey City and Hoboken, I'm not really familiar with either area (even though I grew up primarily in the Passaic County area of north Jersey). Consequently, when ordering food at work, I'm dependent on those co-workers who live in the general vicinity to suggest where the best places are to eat. One co-worker, of Peruvian descent, suggested Pio Pio and I was game. I've only eaten there a few times, and its invariably take out...I've never actually been in the restaurant...but I've become a big fan. And I do mean a big fan. When my co-worker asks where I'd like to order from, more often than not now, I'll reply, "Pio Pio?" Another co-worker, of Cuban descent, always laughs uproariously at that. Not entirely sure why--- my Irish-German-raised-as-a-WASP-in-north-Jersey accent? Maybe. But this "gringo" has come to love this restaurant, and if some good-natured mockery is what I have to go through to eat there, then so be it! The chicken soup is delicious-- crammed full of noodles, chicken and vegetables (including a section of corn on the cob with the cob included). Each day of the week has several specialties listed that you can order--- my particular favorite is Monday's "Picadillo Crillo" (ground beef in creole sauce). Every time I order this, my Cuban co-worker again laughs unroariously, and then corrects my mangling of the words. I usually get a side of rice with it, mix the Picadillo Crillo in, and chow down (last night I ordered it with a side of plantains rather than the black beans that I usually get with the rice-- every dish comes with 2 sides). I've had the yellow rice with chicken, but I especially love the Pot Roast with sauce. I haven't had pot roast since my mother made it for me as a child, but this recalls it vividly. Thankfully, nobody laughed when I ordered it. But it was....I know the word "Amazing" get thrown around a lot on Yelp, but this time the word is truly merited. The dish was, and is, amazing. Simple, perhaps, but amazing. What really stands out about this restaurant, beyond the quality of the food, is how much of it you get for so little money. The pot roast, for example, cost only $8.50. And the quantity of meat, tender and flavorful, is prodigious. Perhaps I've eaten this much great food for so little money elsewhere in my life, but I can't remember where, or when. At some point, I suppose I'll have to actually sit down in the restaurant and order a meal. But I love this place; take-out, sit-down, or whatever. Really. Good, hearty food for very little money. I can't recommend it enough.

We ordered two entrees, but the waitress only wrote down one entree order so we had to re-order the second. Additionally, she didn't really know how to have us pay via credit card, so she had to ask a colleague to come help. She also overcharged us by about $5 for one of the entrees compared to the price printed in the menu. With that said, we got the goat stew and a chicken combo meal, and both were delicious. We would be back for the food, but ordering was way too difficult and then being overcharged...
