Noches de Colombia in Elizabeth really delivers if you're craving authentic Colombian food. We ordered the bandeja paisa and the combinado, and both were generous in portion and full of flavor. The bandeja paisa had everything you want and well-seasoned meats, perfectly cooked beans and rice, ripe plantains, and a fried egg on top that tied it all together. The combinado was just as satisfying, with a nice variety that let us try multiple flavors in one plate. Service was friendly and attentive without feeling rushed, and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, perfect for a casual Sunday lunch. Everything came out hot and fresh. Definitely a solid spot for Colombian food in the area. read more

Noches de Colombia - Combo Mini - Colombian Near Me - Lincoln Park, New Jersey

Noches de Columbia serves delicious Colombian dishes with healthy servings. The location is laid out like a small diner and has a very casual ambiance. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Our group of 6 ordered a little bit of everything. I ordered the paellita noches. They didn't hold back with the squid and shrimp. It was very tasty. However, the stand out food that you NEED to get here is the pan de bono. It's their cheese rolls. These things are by far best thing they serve and I would fly back just to order them again. read more

Been coming here for awhile and this place never disappoints. Clean, decorated lovely with friendly knowledgable staff. Food is on point - authentic columbian dishes from breakfasts to entrees to desserts. Coffee from basic to fancy is tasty, earthy and delicious. We've dined on sandwiches, grilled fish, carne asada and more. Entrees come with generous sides ranging from salad to tostones to rice, beans and other tasty choices. Save room for flan or tres leches! read more

The Food is Okay, but my mom went to eat with her friend , they paid and tipped. My mom ordered a to go salmon and they added another 15% tip. When I called they said everything automatically gets a tip and that every restaurant does that. Never again !!! read more

Never Again!!!! Everything is over priced and the smallest portions. $37 empanadas for 12 "regular sized" empanadas that are smaller than the mini empanadas. read more

Tremendos estafadores... pedí una limonada para llevar y lo que me dieron fue un vaso con hielo with a hint of lime... F U!

Winding down the week, I wanted to have a nice meal. Someone mentioned to me I should try Noches de Colombia. I set that nav to fun! I pulled up to an unassuming restaurant. Walking inside, it's not a fancy restaurant. But closer examination shows beautiful hand made pastries. I want to skip dinner and have both Flan and Tres Leche cake! I'm with a buddy and I ask for beer menu. No alcohol I'm told. Ok, lemme have one of these cool looking drinks, coconut with lime. (Is it lime in the coconut??) while my buddy orders something similar to a Horchata. I expected my drink to be slightly sweet, the lime is cutting thru all the sweetness. My buddy is loving his drink, it's like liquid cinnamon French Toast! We ordered plantains and freshly made guacamole for the table. This starter was out of bounds. Sooo good! I ordered the Churrasquito steak. Just a perfectly cooked piece of meat, tender, succulent and juicy. My waitress asked if I would like Chimichurri sauce, I said sure! And then I never saw her again. I was so packed, I had to pass on dessert. Noches de Colombia is a place where a dad can bring his family, have a nice steak dinner and doesn't break the bank. Quality, authentic food being served. It was a pleasure to dine here. read more

First food, everything was excellent. The chicharron was best I have had. My meal was a skirt steak and shrimp salad. Steak was cooked perfectly tender and juicy. My dessert was warm bread pudding with caramel and chocolate sauces topped with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. Delicious! Next service, top notch. We were well attended to from beginning to end of our meal. Friendly, fast and courteous. Last ambiance, I was impressed with the cleanliness and all well kept. Plenty of TVs to watch a game or whatever else. Oh, it's BYOB which is good to know beforehand! Highly recommended! Plus even has a nice outdoor seating area when in season and the weather cooperates. Check out my pics from here too read more

The food and service was good however everything was overpriced even for Montclair. So dark you couldn't read the menu. Gratuity included in the check for a party of three. read more

Vacations have been downgraded to staycations, but if you don't have a car then getting to Lincoln Park from JC is almost as difficult as California. The December day just barely met my standards for outdoor dining and the train schedule was unforgiving, but it was fun to have a trip that felt like a Jim Jarmusch movie. For a second I resisted Noches de Colombia because it's a chain, but there wasn't much else to choose from and it turned out well. I got the "sharing picadita" with a "little bite of everything." This wasn't shared. The fare, consumed at a nearby scenic park at the confluence of two rivers with sort of a rural Louisiana look, included fried yuca, Colombian sausage, pork cracklings, and mini empanadas. It was excellent and larger than expected, and included green, red and pink sauces. The Uber pickup process was convenient and the workers were great. read more

We ordered from Noches in Lincoln Park, with great expectations. Their menu is varied and presented great opportunities. We ended up disappointed. The good news is that the mini empanadas were light and wonderful. A winner. The grilled chicken sandwich was generous and nicely done. And the Morcilla (blood sausage) was mild and not icersalted, as it can be at other places. Bravo! The bad news was the fried calamari, which was overcooked and very dry and tough. The Pargo Frito (fried snapper) was similarly overdue I ne, yielding dry fish inside the heavily fried outer fish. The rice was clumpy, not fluffy. If we choose to order from Niches Lincoln Park, we'll be very selective. read more

The service was pleasant, the food was DELICIOUS, the flavor is not overwhelming or greasy, the shrimps were clean and fresh. They blend their natural drinks well and the flan was AMAZING! Our family was surprised that the reviews has 3 star, which almost made us not go there. BUT we were extremely delighted that we went and had a wonderful lunch.Clean and kind humans, that we are in need of today. God bless read more

This is always our go to for Colombian food! Always fresh and tasty. We love the guacamole with chicharon! All food is flavorful!

Was in the Lincoln Park area and had stopped by for lunch. There was no wait and was seated immediately. We have been to other Noches locations and was pretty familiar with the menu. Our waitress came by and took our drink order and then we also placed an order for appetizers and entrees. We chose the chicharrones, beef empanadas, and pandebono. The appetizers came out fairly quickly. The chicharrones were cut into small pieces and were also offered the green and pink sauces. They were perfectly cooked and tasted great with the dipping sauces. The empanada was okay. The pandebono was my favorite! I love that cheesy taste in every bite. Our entree came out soon after. I had ordered the mar y mar which is a filet and shrimp in a delicious cream sauce with a choice of 2 sides. My fiancé had ordered the chicken and was also served with 2 sides. I will say the portions are very large but you def get your moneys worth. We both enjoyed our meals and still had plenty to take home. The food was great and service was good for not too busy Sunday afternoon. read more

My friend suggested this location close to her home when we wanted to meet for dinner. I saw that they serve the wine but when we arrived we found out it was only a limited selection by the bottle however they allow you to go across the street to the convenient store and bring something else of your liking, that's pretty fantastic! I ordered something I've never had before, the Frijolada. A massive bowl of red beans topped with ground beef, pork cracklings, chorizo, sweet plantains and avocado, which they forgot to put on. It was a tasty combination of soft, crispy, sweet and spicy from the hot sauce I doused it in. My friend ordered the Pork Loin Hawaiian Style. A dish which one human cannot eat in one sitting. A few grilled cutlets topped with melted cheese ham and pineapple with a side of yellow rice and fried plantains. Needless to say we were both eating for about a week with what we took home. This is a great chain of local restaurants in our area with this being one of the smallest and quiet ones I've visited. read more

Small Columbian within a small north jersey town. Staff are pleasant and prompt. The restaurant follows COVID sanctions to the utmost and most importantly the portions are LARGE for the price. If ordered the fried snapper with white rice, beans and sweet plantation. A solid 7/10. I will be back for sure. read more

I have never wasted so much money for hardly any food. This all costed $55, this is the most egregious price for food I have seen. This is by far the worst portion size I have ever seen. There is no excuse for the price gouge. I'll never order from here again. read more

The food was good. The service was horrible. We had the sancocho and breakfast plate of eggs with ham and an arepa. Everything was delicious. When we entered we were greeted and sat down. The waitress was fine. Took our orders and NEVER returned. The food took longer than expected to come out. When it finally did, I am assuming it was a manager that brought it out. He put the food down and walked away without asking if anything else was needed. My soup came with a salad with no dressing. I waited several minutes before another waitress came by and had to ask for dressing. When we were done, I had food I wanted to take home. Another wait for now a waiter to pass by and ask him for a container and the bill. Meanwhile our waitress did everything but wait on us. She had another table and attended to them the entire duration of our meal. Ohhhhhh and when we get the bill, a 15% gratuity has been included . I definitely won't be returning to this location. read more

Alright this needed to be addressed! I bought this sandwich, placed it online and directions were clear but unfortunately and understandable the cook was confused with how the order was placed. I asked for the grilled sandwich which come with fries and asked for guacamole. The option asked guacamole + or bacon & i chose guacamole. Some how I still ended up with bacon on my sandwich. As you can see the sand which was well put together, wasn't messy but when I called and explained that I had bacon on the sandwich & that I didn't want bacon on it. They told me or actually asked if I can take the bacon off and I said that's not what I ordered. I didn't want bacon on it and being that there as bacon on it I didn't know how they made the sandwich therefore I didn't want the sandwich or another one being made just based on how they addressed the situation. I placed the order November 10th and have yet to receive refund I'll give them a call next week to get an update but I'm just saying if I was religious and I was told to just take the bacon off I would've been very very offended! read more

This was my first visit to this location. I normally visit the location in montclair, but this location was more central for all the members dinning this day. Overall, i didn't like this location. I ordered the whole snapper, but it was really unappetizing because there were so many scales still on the fish. The fried pork was really yummy. read more

The food is good but the service lacks BIG TIME!!!!! The waitress is too busy discussing the men she has been with to pay attention to her tables. Mind you we are the only ones here LITERALLY. SHE HAS GONE THE LAST HOUR talking about how she has dated Italian and Puerto Rican men and how she loves Puerto Rican men but not the woman lmao can't make this shit up. Oh wait I almost forgot ... apparently she doesn't like Peruvians ... the face she made when referring to them was of disgust. Smh. Never going have there again. read more

Just moved to the area and tried to order delivery from them. The person taking the order could not understand what I was saying. Kids chicken fingers meal turned into a cheesesteak. I ordered the fish special and they didn't know what the fish was? I had a list of 5 meals to order and after 5 minutes of only getting through 2, I just hung up and ordered from someplace else. Please have someone capable of answering the phones. read more

Food came out cold, ordered Paisita with a side of beans the grilled steak & beans were cold. Ordered Colombian style grilled chicken, the chicken was cold & rice was hard like old. Not recommended read more

Apropos for this place to be my 200th review... what a great little place, the portions are huge, the food is authentic and tasty and the servers are very nice, despite my inability to speak Spanish. The service is as fast or slow as you'd like it to be. I enjoyed the food, the atmosphere and the music. We had zero room for dessert but the coffee was excellent. I had the lunch special steak and a side of the daily soup (chicken) and it was way too much food so I brought most of my lunch Home because I couldn't stop eating the soup (it was soooo good). Give this gem a try, I promise you won't be disappointed!! So happy I found this place and will definitely go back ! read more

Over priced!!!!!! This location is robbing the residents of Lincoln Park and surrounding areas, it's incredible how people don't know any better or just don't care. Every Noches I been to in urban areas like Union City/WNY/North Bergen NJ have the menu prices at least 25 % lower. This location not even in a nice location. Small parking lot with a run down grocery market next to it. All locate residents this place is robbing you blind! Lol read more

Ordered a Door Dash, have ordered plenty of times before and have never been disappointed. Today's meal was pretty much inedible. I ordered the garlic shrimp and vegetables. The vegetables were waterlogged frozen vegetables that were absolutely disgusting. The shrimp was the only edible item in the dish and they were not even that great. I have ordered this before and it was amazing. I don't understand the complete 360 and the price, how do you charge $19 for frozen veggies and shrimp. We tried calling at least 4 times and can't get through. Even the pandebono seemed off. Very disappointing. read more

Their prices are ridiculous. They charge as if they were a high quality restaurant. A plate of rice with beans and a piece of overcooked meet is $26.00. These are the type of places that makes you believe there is an economic inflation but the reality is their greed. read more

Have visited this location multiple times for dinner or takeout. Tonight was the first time during quarantine that we ordered delivery. I placed my order online and got an estimated time frame of delivery. The food arrived promptly at the time the website stated, upon opening the food containers, the food was still pipping hot which a lot of deliveries haven't been delivering, hot food. My husband and I ordered the mini empanadas, the breaded chicken with rice and beans, the chicken surf and turf with yuca fries and side orders of fries and salad. Everything was delicious and flavorful! I've been a big fan of this location and if you're looking for a different spot besides pizza and Chinese this is your spot! Thanks noches!! read more

Stay away from the Shrimp and Veggies. The vegetables are the frozen kind you can buy in the supermarket. Furthermore, all the steak came under cooked. I specified medium in my order. Finally, the girl at the counter argued with me about rice missing in the order. Very shocked in the service and food this time around. read more

Noches de Colombia - After having to reheat for almost 30 mins this is how my steak was cooked. Horrible - Colombian Near Me - Lincoln Park, New Jersey

I went in for lunch even thought the waiter was pleasant they were too many staff standing around when only two of them were coming back and Ford with the food and kept asking us if we needed anything. I would like to see the 6ft space between them which i didn't see . That's not my big issue When the bill came there is a part that says gratuity as part of the bill I asked the waiter what that meant since they were extra space to put the tip He told me that at least 15% tip is a must and it's part of your bill The tip space is any extra that I want to give him It was a very uncomfortable conversation I understand covid times he should get his tip but I see it as very dishonest not to inform the customers of what you are being charge for Either informing us as you are sitting or disclaim it somewhere as the nail salons have done it ! Everyone is affect it by the pandemic no only them I never seen this in NJ I know in Florida the tip is included in the bill but sorry that's not my zip code read more

Food was excellent, although I was unable to finish past my soup and appetizer. Outdoor tent and tables were set up adequately for social distancing. As expected, the entire staff, both indoors (Take-out orders) and outdoors wore face masks. It was byob for the outdoor dining, but don't believe anyone was even drinking at the time. Parking space was adequate with respect to the available tables. read more

I went on a really nice date night here, everything was really amazing it was a very busy Friday night, the restaurant was quite packed but our service was still very good. We ordered a lot of the appetizers which all came out, a couple things were missing at first but we received them midway through our meal they were still very delicious that we didn't mind. I love their rice it seasoned really well, the calamari was amazing, and the cicerones were insane Definitely stand outs read more

I have been here several times now. I used to frequent another location and love the food there. The restaurant is clean and bright. Plenty of parking at this location as they have a parking lot in the back. They have daily specials for lunch for $8.50 The portions are large and have a good variety. I usually get the carne asada lunch special. It's grilled steak with salad, rice and a bowl of beans or soup. The steak that I got today was way over cooked. I also like the paisita which is a mini typical Colombian dish. I always get the mango shake which is filling by itself but taste great. Their shrimps are very good as well. Service is sometimes slow but it's usually not that big of a problem. Overall a great place to eat. I have not gotten a chance to try everything yet. So I will be back. read more

Service was the only good thing and the food was just mediocre. The prices did not match anything that was billed, in addition there was tax and transaction fees so by the time we got our bill our bill was $25 more. And three dishes, two juices, with no appetizers the bill was $82. We could've had a higher end eating experience for the same price at a local BYOB. Definitely The experience was not worth the $$$. read more

Best Spanish food hands down! Really good prices, nice atmosphere and friendly staff!

The food here is good. The decor and ambiance is good enough. The service is friendly. The deserts were terrible.
