My first visit here may have been 20 years ago but I still haven't read the whole menu, as I've tended to head straight for the bandeja paisa. Breakfast options are broader than I realized, and I recently enjoyed the huevos revueltos con migas. Tonight I got the parillada, a hefty combo of steak, chicken and sausage, augmented with a bottle of a compelling green sauce (but not THAT green sauce, I don't know the technical terms but it was great). The service has always been delightful over the years. read more

After a night of fun, I was craving a solid Colombian brunch, and my date--who knows Hudson County like the back of his hand--suggested Noches de Colombia. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I left completely satisfied. We sat at the bar, where we were handed menus on tablets (a nice modern touch), allowing us to switch between Spanish and English. We started with café con leche and two pan de bono--cheese bread that was fresh out of the oven, perfectly fluffy yet dense. I initially expected something similar to Brazilian cheese bread, but this was in a league of its own. For brunch, we ordered scrambled eggs with peppers and onions, chicharrón (crispy pork belly), and chopped Migas (corn bits with onions and tomatoes) while my date went for chorizo. Everything was flavorful on its own, but adding their picante sauce... Game changer! The meal was reasonably priced at 14.00 each. If you're looking for delicious, comforting Colombian food, Noches de Colombia is a must. I'll definitely be back! read more

While looking for a quick bite in the area. We decided on Noches De Colombia based on some local recommendations. The Pan de Bono were amazing. They were as they should be warm and slightly crunchy exterior with a butter and fluffy interior. Like a buttery pillow of goodness. Also had the arepas de choclo and also on the money. Buttery sweet corn like pancake with a slab of cheese somewhat melted on top. Simply delicious. And it wouldn't be a Colombian restaurant experience without washing it all down with a typical Colombian soda, a Colombiana. Staff were super friendly, service was quick and places was clean. The only thing I would note is they charge you 4% extra when paying by credit card. Otherwise a nice spot for when craving some Colombian bites. Would stop by next time to try more. read more

The food here was amazing and overall a really good experience. I will definitely come here more often.

Highly Recommend. We have been coming here for years. My son loves the food ( chicken tiritas with white rice ) and the service. They know him by name, and they always come to our table to say hello, especially the manager. The food is great. The service is even better every time we go. Everyone makes us feel like you are at home. read more

Definite 5 stars! Colombians do breakfast like no one else. It's like neck-and-neck with Dominican breakfast. Colombian coffee is always so good. It's like that robust stuff with natural strong and sweet flavor. The food I had was perfect. The sausage, and the arepa CHOCLO (make sure it's this kind!) with the cheese were the winners for sure. Clean place, fast service. Loved it. Will definitely want to come back. read more

I LOVE the pan de bono (cheese bread) and empanadas with pink sauce. It always just warms my soul and makes me so happy. I don't usually sit down for a whole meal but that food is also really good. I got the lemonade last time I went and it was awesome too. I wish they had it in nyc but I'll make the trek to New Jersey for this!! read more

Was visiting a friend here in Union City. The empanadas were pretty decent, but too much potato and not enough beef. Also, it was kind of dry. It was seasoned well though. The arroz con pollo tasted phenomenal. The seasoning was exactly on point. I also got a side of beans which is not pictured here. The beans came in a soup that tasted very good. Cheers! read more

Everything around this entire area was closed. So grateful this place was open because I was starving! The food was absolutely delicious and came out so fast. I mean I was shocked. I waited two minutes for my appetizer and three minutes after that, my main course was out . Staff was friendly! Will definitely be returning . Enjoy pics of the delicious plates we had . I'm drooling just writing this review. read more

This Noches de Colombia is a special place for me because it's somewhere I love going with my parents. It has a cozy, family-friendly atmosphere that makes it perfect for spending time together. My parents and I enjoy the nice hospitality, who always make us feel at home. It's become a bit of a tradition to go there when ever we want to eat outside as a family, especially on some weekends. We usually order a mix of our favorites the carne asada or the pollo a la plancha for me, arroz con camarones and a salad for my mom, and my dad's go-to, the bandeja paisa with avocado. The portions are generous, and the flavors are consistently rich and satisfying. The smoothies they offer are just amazing specially the mango and passion fruit ones. If you're looking for a place to share good food and create memories with family, Noches de Colombia is an excellent choice. read more

Noches de colombia is one of my favorite restaurants, no matter which one I go to. This particular restaurant is located on Bergenline Ave in Union City. There is plenty of metered parking in this busy area. The service is quick and friendly, mostly Spanish speakers but some English as well. The restaurant has plenty of seating and the ambiance is nice for modest restaurant. The food here is great. They also have lunch specials ($10.50), which I believe are cheaper than at the other restaurants. I recommend ordering Pandebono ($2). This is a cheesy bread that is an absolute must for me every time I visit a Noches. read more

I wish I would've read the reviews before coming here because I did not think it was humanly possible to ruin a noches de Colombia. I've been to so many and none have been such a disaster as this place. No alcohol, food was dryer than the Sahara dessert and just absolutely gross. And the staff takes foreveeeeeeeeeer to take care of you, avoid this place at all costs read more

Noches De Colombia - SUPER DRY Parrillada- avoid! Also avoid the Arepa con Todo. It was horrible too - Colombian Near Me - Union City, New Jersey

Food is good if you have all the time in the world and patience. That's why 1 star. Service is horrific throughout all locations. Servers never check on you, follow up or bring you the check- you'll ask for it 2-3 times. If you're doing take out, you stand there 15 mins easily with 6 staff talking to each other or on their phones. Shame. read more

This is my favorite restaurant The food always fresh fast yummy and very well serve. This is a Colombian food restaurant, I not agree with other negative reviews but people have the right to express them self. The workers always happy, sometimes too busy but always very respectful What else can I say, I love the food I the price is very affordable. Calentado con migas y carne is my favorite brunch, for dinner any fish is grate, first timers bandeja paisa ( a little bit of everything) Enjoy read more

I really can't even lie, you will find my parents and I here at least every other weekend! Obviously we are also Colombian, so we are a little bias, but the food really is amazing, cheap, and really large portions. The best and most traditional thing you can order is of course la bandeja paisa (it really gives you a gist of what Colombian cuisine is all about). It is the dish that brings: rice, red beans, fried meat, fried pork, a fried egg, sweet plantains, avocado and a corn biscuit (or arepa). I know it sounds like indigestion waiting to happen- but it's really delicious. If you happen to make room for desert - which I must say is a MUST, so be sure to share your bandeja paisa- you HAVE to have the fresas con crema. It is really heaven to the palate. With coconut shavings, banana slices, strawberries, ice cream, dulce de leche and whipped cream....you really can't go wrong! So if you want a hearty and cheap meal get to Noches! Just be sure to put in that extra hour in the gym before hand. :) Oh the only thing I would recommend is a little bit of patience, this place gets PACKED on the weekends (especially after mass); so don't be surprised if you have to stand by the door and wait a little. The staff is very nice and helpful. read more

Fantastic food, friendly staff, cozy ambiance--perfect for a delightful dining experience!

Noches de Colombia is fantastic for typical Colombian food and very cheap. They offer arepas, seafood, meats and of course their national dish the bandeja. I ordered a maracuya shake in water which was sour and sweet = delicious to my taste buds. My friend ordered a papaya shake which was great too. I like that each item on the menu had a picture, you could clearly see what you are ordering. It's best to order in Spanish, the waitresses really appreciate it although they do speak some English. I ordered shrimps in a light garlic sauce which came with beets, avocado, tomato, maduros, tostones, aprepita, white rice and onions ($10). The shrimps were phenomenal, nice and crunchy, the way you expect fresh shrimp to be. It might have been the best shrimp I've ever had in my life. My friend ordered tilapia ($8) which came with everything the shrimp dish had except the toastones. We split a side of beans to flavor the rice which was really tasty. There was so much food on each plate you can probably get away with ordering one dish for two people. Just make sure you check your change because the cashier gave us the wrong about but that was fixed when we pointed the mistake out. There are a couple of Noches de Colombia in the Northern NJ area and if they are as good as this one, I will be checking them out if I am in the area. read more

Craving Colombian food? This sure is the place to go! I have been coming here for years and I still can't get enough of it! It's just excellent! The staff is always very nice and the service is very quick! Everything on the menus is great, they have so many items that are all equally great that is hard to choose what to get sometime You can never go wrong getting a order of empanadas, and their Chicharon is to die for! For a entree, I always get the Carne Asada , just plain YUM . They also serve the best rice and beans ever! Wash it all down with some Manzana (apple soda) your in heaven! They even offer desserts here as well which is always a nice treat! Even though the meals I. General are a little pricey, it is worth it and there are ALWAYS leftovers to bring home! The portions are HUGE and no I'm not exaggerating. The best thing about this place is that it's a chain restaurant in our area. I have been to all of them to see if they are all good and sure enough they are! Great job Noches for always being consistent! Still not convinced? Well here's another example for you, my dad is a full blooded Italian man at heart and he is even obsessed! read more

Noches unfortunately has failed me this time. I have been to several locations and picked up to go as well and it's never been bad.

The food here was delicious but the server was very rude from the initial moment which we walked in. Never had a friendly tone and would just walk over and wait for us to look up and assume she was waiting for our food order instead of asking what we would like to order. She never even came back to ask if our food came out alright. I will not be coming back here ever again. I came for lunch and it was not crazy busy to excuse her behavior. read more

If you have not tried any of the Noches de Colombia restaurants, highly recommend giving this place a visit! Conveniently located on the corner, we were able to find parking right away. Came here with 3 of my sorority sisters after doing some kickboxing to refuel and we ended up staying for a bit catching up. We all wanted to initially order something healthy but being that their menus included pictures of their meals, we ate with our eyes! lol We ended up ordering the Carnitas Salad, The Tres Carnes Salad (this salad included shrimp, chicken and steak) and the other 2 girls opted for a small bandeja paisa which included white rice, chicharron, steak and sausage. We also got a small side of Calentado (rice mixed with beans). Everything was perfectly cooked and had great flavor! It was also a pretty big portion so there was enough to take home for later. Would go back again if I am ever in the area again :) read more

La verdad no volvería a pedir de este lugar. En esta oportunidad hice un pedido de chicharrón con calentado de frijoles, chunchurria con arepa y un caldo de pollo. El caldo no está mal un 7/10 pero el resto para nada estaba rico. el chicharrón súper grasoso y la chunchurria igual muy grasosa con gordos y eso es algo que se tiene que quitar antes de hacerla y como hecha a la ligera le falto estar un poquito tostada. No probé más platos pero la verdad si de entrada algo no me gusta prefiero tratar un lugar nuevo!!! read more

This place I beyond awesome, the food is fenomenal. the menu is really big, the prices are normal and the service is always very friendly, I've been coming to this place every time I have a trip to New Jersey and so far they've never disappointed me. Even thought this place is a small chain local to New Jersey, I always choose to drive to the one in union city, in my opinion the food here is better than in the other locations read more

The food is very good - flavors are right on target. Try the arroz con pollo and the carne asada. Usually I am not a fan of rice and beans but even the rice here is done perfectly: flavorful and tender with a great beans to rice ratio. It's even good reheated for lunch the next day! The steak is very flavorful and seasoned to perfection, and the chicken is tender and juicy. Entrees are around $12-15 and include a side (rice, yucca, tostones, frijoles, papas fritas, salad). And definitely do not leave without an order of the beef empanadas ($7.25) : flaky, crispy crust and savory filling with beef and potatoes. The chicharron ($5!) is also a good appetizer option but make sure to eat while hot! It's nice and crispy. I have only gotten takeout but the staff are friendly and portions very generous even though they do charge you a $.25 packing fee/dish. You can also order online, which I tend to do. Worth a visit! read more

I happen to come by this restaurant after a conference with some friends. Browsing through their menu, I could immediately tell that this place was affordable , especially since Colombian restaurants often served huge servings of food, from my previous experience. And boy was I right! I ordered the pechuga empanizado (breaded chicken breast) and it was huge! The chicken alone was as big as the plate. It came with maduros (sweet plantains), an arepa, and rice. Unfortunately it did not come with beans, which is customary. So I had to order that separately. Regardless, it was delicious! The serve was so-so as our waiter ignored us a few times while we were still talking to him. Fortunately the food came very quickly, so that balanced it out. The restaurant was nice except for the bathroom which was a mess. There was wet toilet paper on the floor and liquids by the toilet. Overall, good affordable food, so so service and so so atmosphere. read more

They also don't give napkins and sauces for empanadas. Manager has nasty ass attitude just like the employees read more

The chicharones are amazing. I got a 61 dollar ticket because I parked in front of the place in a bus stop so be careful where you park but it was definitely well worth it. I also ordered a chicken empanada that was really good. Traditional Colombian food. read more

Awesome!!!!! The food was delicious!!!! I usually go to the South Hackensack location because it close to my work but decided to order from home this time. The filete empanizado de Colombia is TO DIE FOR! So crispy but moist and the sauce is SOOOO good. Maduros cooked to perfection. They forgot my pondebono but they delivered it after I called and asked for it. The girls on the phone didn't speak English well and hung up on me by accident but the delivery guy was soooooo nice!!!! Will order again. Yum. ¡¡¡¡¡Increíble!!!!! ¡¡¡¡La comida era deliciosa!!!! Normalmente voy a la ubicación de South Hackensack porque está cerca de mi trabajo, pero esta vez decidí ordenar desde mi casa. El filete empanizado de colombia es para morirse! Muy crujiente pero húmeda y la salsa es muy buena. Maduros cocinados a la perfección. Se olvidaron de mi pondebono pero lo entregaron después de que lo llamé y lo pedí. Las chicas del teléfono no hablaban bien el inglés y me colgaron por accidente, pero el repartidor era increíblemente bueno. Ordenará de nuevo. Yum read more

I did not know this place was a chain. I knew there were two in Union City, but I just thought they had the same name for some...reason. Still had a mom and pop vibe in that you get more than your money's worth. I got the Pollo de la Plancha (Grilled Chicken Breasts for you Americans out there) and it was delicious. So good. If you are hungry, you gotta come through and get your Colombian on. Everything looks amazing and they even have shakes. This close to NYC it's a shock they don't charge more. read more
