Visited on a Friday from 6-7 PM. It was completely dead, but they mentioned a live band plays at 8 PM on weekends, which probably brings a great crowd because the interior ambiance and vibes are already beautiful. The Food: * Starters: The hummus and muhammara with pita were great. They also gave us bread with EVOO--it looked perfectly crusty on the outside and soft in the middle, and it tasted just as good as it looked! * Mains: I couldn't decide between lamb and salmon. The waiter suggested lamb, but I went with the salmon and it was the best decision. The citrus sauce on top was divine! Wish it came with rice instead of just veggies (though the veggies were tasty). The Service: The staff was friendly and service was good, but a heavy language barrier made it hard to understand the waiter, so he wasn't very helpful with menu questions. Overall, a great experience. I'd definitely come back later in the evening to catch the live music! read more

Mediterranean @ Edgewater, NJ, 3.5 stars Decided to try the restaurant since it was 10 minutes walk from my sister's place. We had a dinner around 8pm on Friday but the restaurant was not busy at all. It appears it used to be a cuban restaurant but v the owner changed and became a Mediterranean. The menu was very simple and it was a BYBO. We told our server that we wanted to share every dishes. We really liked the hot crusty bread served with a spread and it also tasted good with babaganoush. The pita bread was stale and burnt which came out with the babaganoush. The beet goat cheese walnut was refreshing. The fried calamari was crispy and went well with tahini based sauce. The lamb shishi kebob was tasty but the portion was very small and it was chewy. There was too many overcooked carrots as a side. You coould park on the street or valet parking was available. read more

I came here for a party and I wanted to jump on here and give a review. I'm so surprised how this place has such a high ratings. We sat in the back. It seems so un kept. The floor was sticky and dirty. There was cob webs on the ceiling and things kept falling from the lighting. While sitting at our table. It was extremely cold and uncomfortable. Def not temperature regulated. We had apps on the table. Instead of being hot or warm they were cold. The shrimp had a weird red color to it like they were dyed. I would say the apps out of everything was the best out of this whole mess of a meal. Empanadas was salty but good. Shrimp over tostones was good although the weird red color. Steak quesadillas ICE COLD. But decent and a salad that mushy that I wouldn't touch.. We had four entrees to choose from steak with rice and beans, chicken with a spicy sauce, a mustard encrusted salmon with a fruit salad? Weird and a shredded pork We all got a different dish. The salmon was ice cold. Like right out of the frig. And the "sauce" tasted like apple sauce". And a fruit salad that had cantaloupe in it. I thought cantaloupe was recalled? Eww.. the steak was again warm but it was the better of the dishes and a pork dish steaming hot but when I say SALTY! Holy cow four glasses later my mouth is still trying to get rid of the salt.. We saw on other plates they had some pink mush on their plate and they said it was coconut yams.. what is it with this place and food dye!! We were hoping dessert would be better but NOPE! They threw down some dessert a pink colored flan that my 5 year old neice could make better and a coffee infused "crème brûlée" made out of powdered coffee. To top it off they were bare handing it on to the plate at the bar! This was the most horrendous dinner I may have ever had.. I'm glad I didn't have to pay for it.. what a shame.. who ever wrote a good review what were you thinking! Also staff here was not friendly at all. They looked miserable and since it was a small area they kept pushing themselves into your chair and over you. Super comfortable and very unprofessional! read more

I visited here with a group of 24 for a celebration on a Thursday night. We had the room in the back which was set up nicely. Parking was a bit of a struggle because it is only street cleaning. We ended up parking about 3 blocks away. We had a pre-fixe menu for our group. The waiters went around and informed us of our options for the main dish. The appetizers and desserts were family style. The restaurant is BYOB so make sure to bring your drinks. The appetizers were great! The flavor was perfect. The avocado salad - OMG I have no clue what they added to it but it was so good. The appetizers were decently portioned. The main entrees seemed to be hit or miss. Everyone had different opinions on their meals. I was one of the lucky ones who really enjoyed the churrasco. It was flavorful and cooked perfectly. The only downside is they did not give the chimichurri sauce until we requested it. That was also something that not everyone was fond of. The sides for the dinner were disappointing. The sides (rice/sweet potato) were family style and tiny portions that was not enough for us to share. I tried a tiny amount of the morro and the sweet potato. Both were good. The sweet potato had a kick of coconut which was odd but I kinda enjoyed it. I didn't get a photo of the family style dessert but trust me... it was a small portion as well. I didn't have any but heard that the flan was amazing. All in all I enjoyed my food. I would like to return but not in a group. The staff overall was great and the food was delicious. read more

Such a wonderful ambiance. Dim lighting, candles on the table. Very intimate. The service was great. This place is BYOB but they do provide wine. We ordered the Rosita wine with the Tropical Fantasy Sangria mix. It was very refreshing. A great pairing. The appetizers were amazing. We had the jerk chicken skewers (so flavorful) and the beef empanadas. For our entrees, we had the Red Pepper Sea Bass. It had good flavor. We also ordered the Churrasco which ended up being chewy. All in all, it's a great place and I will be returning. read more

Have mixed reviews that's a combination of yummy food and less than helpful service. Service - firstly, the parking situation is confusing and limited (I think). When I called upon arrival to get advice on parking, I was told there was "no parking". When I pushed about getting clarification about whether I could park in certain lots and was told that they were only for a condo, I managed to find street parking. When we arrived, they first sat us at a table directly next to a rowdy large party. We then asked to be moved, and they gave us a table inside the gazebo area, which was beautiful! Like why not seat us there from the get go? Next, we were told that it was a BYO establishment but that they sold bottles of wine. We specifically asked for a wine that was not sweet and was verbatim told "this is the opposite of sweet." Since their wine menu didn't list actual wine names - just vague descriptions we had to go with their advice. Well turns out, it was super sweet like a moscato. The server and manager both kept insisting that they had already opened the bottle and had to charge us, even though we were mislead. They ultimately turned it into a sangria, which they didn't charge us for which we appreciated. At least it was relatively edible. Note - just bring your own bottle if you intend to drink. The food was good. The guacamole, shrimp enchilados (though the shrimp was slightly over cooked), and salmon were good. Note that each entree comes with a rice, and you can choose the mixed rice so it has rice and beans . For a party of 2 people, they automatically added gratuity. Also be sure to check in on Yelp for 10% off. I feel better prepared now next time we come back. read more

Wow. Ordered 7 Shirley temples. 1 hr later they say they dont have shirley temples after we asked! Ok. Didnt get my coke. They didnt have like half the items on their menu and only told us like an hour later. its been like an hour and a half and we havent gotten our food yet! read more

Came here for a pre-fixed birthday dinner. Everyone thought the food was delicious. We were a party of 19 and the service was excellent. The churrasco and the espresso crème brûlée were the star's of the show. If you are a large group I highly recommend this pre-fixed menu. read more

Rebecca's is an amazing restaurant! I came here for the first time to celebrate my friends surprise birthday/ going away party. Because of covid we decided to keep it small and intimate so we rented out the small room that fit around 12 people. We had our own space which was great! The space was cozy and cute. For private dining/ parties they have 3 different types of menus to choose from: a $35, $45 or $55. We decided to opted for the $55 menu and it was so worth it! The food was delicious. We got appetizers which were family style (empanadas, salad, and guacamole) then for the entree it was a la carte so everyone got their own plate. Lastly for dessert it was also family style but my favorite dessert was the flan! It was delicious. This place is BYOB so we definitely brought some wine and champagne to enjoy with our delicious food! read more

First time coming to this restaurant! Parking was a bit rough, I waited for someone to leave their spot on the street. I came here for a celebration and we were seated in a private room toward the back. The servers were friendly and attentive. They explained the menu options for us. The restaurant is BYOB ! The appetizers were delicious, they brought out salad, shrimp, guacamole and empanadas. The entrees came with sides family style: the portions were so small of rice and sweet potatoes mash. We also found the churassco to be a small size. They brought out the dessert family staple and that was also small. To a table of about 10 they brought two plates out for each time, they need to bring out three. The portion of the flan was almost bite sized! The food was good overall. read more

Rebeccas is still killin' it! Being a BYOB we always bring a bottle of vino to turn into a lovely Sangria - the red has apples and oranges. Feeling frisky then try one of the white tropical sangria mixes. They also offer bottles of wine for sale in the $25 range. read more

Cuban food and BYOB, sign me up! Came here for a birthday dinner. We brought 3 bottles of wine with us. There is no corking fee so feel free to bring as many as you think you'll need to satisfy your group. Staff was very nice and accommodating. They kept our bottles in the fridge until we were ready for them. The food was really good. Atmosphere is dark and intimate. Everything we ate was good. The guacomole was a stand out. read more

The food was awful and tasted like it had been reheated from a few days ago. Never again. How can a Cuban restaurant not have decent pork?

Another Cuban restaurant I enjoy. If you're ever in the jersey area and want to visit somewhere more secluded I would recommend. The night I went was pretty busy even though I called to reserve a table- there was a lot going on. I remember asking the waitress for another bread basket and it was a while before she showed up with it. Moving on. The croquets were soo delicious! Probably my favorite from any place I've been to so far. The shrimps were cooked to perfection (hate over cooked shrimp) and had a great garlic flavor. I of course completed my meal with rice and beans. read more

Came here with a large party, we had a space in the back separate from the main restaurant area with approximately 25 people. Although we were likely too many people for the party, they treated us so well! The restaurant was nice, clean, and had a very fancy vibe. The wait staff was extremely attentive. They spoke Spanish and English (perfect for a multi generational immigrant family). They provided extras when asked. It was a BYOB so they corked our wines and champagne, provided ice, and made us feel really good. They didn't mind the many questions or the confusion over who ordered what. Extremely impressed by their service. Their food was also exquisite although I wouldn't say 100% authentic, the flavors were familiar, and their presentation was nice. The meals came with appetizers guacamole with plantain chips, and tostones with shrimp, pico de Gallo, and empanadas the main course (choice of meat/fish -- options were churrasco, salmon, chicken, or lechón/Pork). They brought out sides for the table white rice, congris (Moro or black bean and white rice), and mashed yams. Lastly, but certainly not least they brought out desserts for the table. It contained flan, rice pudding, and the best Expresso creme brulee I've ever had. It was truly both a great time and the food was delicious. I was not the one who paid, so I am not sure how much it cost per person. Would definitely come back with a a group, or for a date night. read more

Be advised they charge you 20% as a party fee even if it's just 2 people. I looked over their website and menu and this charge isn't listed anywhere that I can find. Again it's only 2 people and if it's disclosed somewhere it's pretty hidden so this is fraud at worst and impolite at least. Other than that the waiter ignored me a lot and the place was empty when we arrived yet the waiter still rarely came around despite us being the only ones in the restaurant.

It was wonderful to return to Rebeccas to celebrate another family event. I celebrated my wedding in 2019 and the experience was amazing. We now picked Rebeccas again to celebrate our daughter's bridal shower. The place is beautiful, they have recently renovated the restaurant, the staff is excellent and the food is delicious.

I came here Saturday night by reservation. I highly recommend making a reservation because when I called around 9pm to see if they had seats available the only time they had open was 10:30. The restaurant is beautiful. It's nicely decorated and a really nice spot to take pictures. It is a good spot to celebrate an occasion. We ordered shortly after being seated, but unfortunately had to wait about a full hour to get our food. They did provide bread and then plantain chips while we waited but at 11:15pm we really just wanted our food especially after waiting so long. Our waitress and another employee was really nice about the situation and assured us it was coming. At one point we thought maybe they forgot about us. When the food itself came it was okay. I ordered the red snapper. I wouldn't visit again for that dish and none of the other dishes on the menu seemed very appealing. I didn't have dessert but I would visit again to try dessert only. I believe it is also byob. read more

I was a little disappointed.. the food was top notch, great quality, simple fresh Cuban flavor. The service on the other hand wasn't there. When we first walked in we were impressed, very romantic, intimate candlelight date night restaurant. It's BYOB , they have a few different sangria mix in options to choose from and they will make it with your bottle of wine. We were seated right away. Started with the shrimp appetizer, four perfectly grilled pieces of gulf shrimp on a fried plantain and topped with fresh pico. We noticed a few tables have been waiting for their meals.. and then so did we. We were at the restaurant for a total of an hour and just had our app. For our main course I had the Tuna, hubby had the Snapper. Both very delicious, we both got the Mashed Coconut Yams which were out of this world!!! I must say the food again wass really great but we were waiting around hungry. I'd love to go back but I just don't know if it's worth the wait. Maybe they were just having a bad day and short staffed. read more

You'd think living a few blocks away that i would have been here sooner, but unfortunately you are wrong. Rebecca's is the perfect date night. be it for your lover or your friend. Myself and my friend loved sitting outside in the verranda area. Despite that its kinda outside, Rebecca's staff keeps it warm. The service is quick and smooth, the staff is super friendly and pays attention to our drinks and is very helpful. The cilantro shrimp was a larger portion than i thought it would be. it could be sharable, or even an entree like i chose. the shrimp is grilled and seasoned perfectly. The coconut yams were out of this world, in fact i wish there were more of a coconut flavor. the yucca frittas came with an amazing dipping sauce, but felt they needed to be fried or baked more. ive had far better at other places. i would come back for dessert, their dessert menu looks to die for! read more

I'm extremely disappointed in my experience at Rebecca's for my daughter's first birthday party as I had high hopes in everything turning out great. There were so many aspects of things that were discussed that weren't produced in my event and the customer service from Sonya was terrible!!!! When first viewing the place to rent for my daughter's birthday Sonya was extremely unprofessional discussing how unhappy she was working at Rebecca's as she received new job duties and that she wasn't getting paid for the extra work. She talked about her plans to leave and continue about how unhappy she was to work there. Her attitude about her unhappiness of working at Rebecca's reflected poorly on her customer service the day of my event. When arriving at a restaurant to decorate, things that were discussed before the event wasn't set up correctly which delay the time of decorating for the event and made it that we were still decorating during the beginning of my event. She had breached the contract that we had. There were 2 packages for drinks of the event the 3$ per person or the 6$ per person. I had picked 3$ per person as I felt it fit better with my event. Sonya never gave my guest any drinks apart from my package. She didn't offer any drinks to my guest but was charging people for things that weren't part of my package. She was offering people drinks from 6$ package and charging me per drink that was ordered randomly. This had brought my bill higher than it should've been. This is extremely upsetting because not only did the majority of my guests didn't drink I got to be charged more for drinks when I shouldn't have. I got less for what I paid for and was SCAMMED! Another issue that I feel was extremely heartbreaking is she didn't allow my cake to be cut and told me that she won't be able to cut it because there are only 30 mins left to the event. I was never told a cutoff time to cut the cake or anything. If I was told a time I would've worked accordingly to that time which I was never provided. This had ruined my event because who doesn't cut a cake for a birthday and it's my daughter's very first birthday. I was so pleased with how the place was decorated and the style of restaurant which had led me to do my daughter's birthday here. I could've chosen any place to celebrate her birthday but I chose this place because I had such high hopes as it would be perfect. I did enjoy the food as it was delicious. My major disappointment for my event would have to be the customer service I experienced at this place. Sonya and the other female who worked with her were very rude and unfriendly. Sonya was very unprofessional and unorganized. She is in a role that she can't handle and it is reflecting so poorly on this restaurant. I will no longer ever come to this restaurant because of this big disappointment of the experience I had. Nor would I recommend this place to anyone as many people who asked me about this place I will no longer recommend because of the service I received. What makes a place is good customer service and this place DOES NOT HAVE THAT! read more

I love Rebecca's. Consistent food quality and service and their lovely backyard with lights are just so cute and makes everyone feel better. Indoors are more classy so you can't go wrong with either one. And the staff! Can they be any sweeter and professional? They are amazing. Yelp has an amazing deal $40 for $30 so you can save $10 right there. And the food is excellent as well! I always get guacamole here since I love their plaintain chips. I wish guacamole has some tomato or some kind of red color, but it's still good. Salad with chorizo and chickpeas is also amazing. I usually don't like chorizo as I find them overly salty but their chorizo was chopped and wasn't too salty where I can actually taste and enjoy chorizo and went really well with the marinated chick peas. We also tried the famous mango mustard salmon with their signature side coconut yam. Coconut yam is nothing I've tasted before. Portions are huge so I don't find the place expensive at all. Definitely a good restaurant for both family, friends or dates. Can't wait to go back. read more

Food was very good, and my family enjoyed their evening.. however the service was terrible. Beware of the 10% off deal on yelp!! Went there on a Saturday night. On their yelp page, they offered 10% off the entire bill when you check in. No exclusions. Instead of comping our check, our waitress said she can offer us 10% of our check through a gift card that we can use to come back. Apparently, she closed our bill before we could even sign it after receiving our check. After this experience, I wouldn't bother coming back. read more

Deception is the reason why I wrote this review. I can understand their struggle post-pandemic, but I won't tolerate deception. Was here today for Mother's Day. I was disappointed but was not going to write this review of a restaurant likely struggling to bounce back post-pandemic, but felt compelled when I noticed that we were deceived more than once by staff. When we made the reservation over a week ago, we asked for outdoor seating. When we arrived, there was no outdoor space. It was a solarium type area in the back of the restaurant. At our request, a sliding door was opened and window across the way, but this was not the level of ventilation I was seeking. I wish that the restaurant had not misrepresented this information. When we received our check, we were not told that the tip had been added because we were deemed a "large" group. We were a party of 5 people, but our receipt indicates that we were a party of six. This seems intentional to justify the mandatory tip that was added. We did not realize that the tip was already included, and gave them another tip; they were double tipped. This is deceptive. read more

Great cozy and romantic atmosphere. We were a party of four on a Sunday evening when things were a bit quiet. Two had a salmon dish which they thoroughly enjoyed. One had a chicken dish which was very good also. I had the ropa viejo which was delicious and plentiful. We had sides of maduros, guacamole with plantain chips, rice and black beans. More food than we could eat. All were prepared in the Cuban and Caribbean fashion that we have experienced for years at Cuban restaurants; however, this was a step up. The service was knowledgeable, friendly, and excellent. Will definitely be back read more

Attended Rebecca's with my fiancé, sister in law and her significant other to celebrate an occasion.This spot is very beautiful online but unfortunately we weren't able to experience that side and were seated by the restroom (note to management below) We spoke to our waiter and ask to be moved if possible and they kindly made those accommodations. We pulled up our menu online and were ready to enjoy everything Rebecca's has to offer (a little bit of everything) we were placing our orders in for the Sangria's to celebrate a joyous occasion and were told that this establishment is a BYOB, we would need to buy a bottle of wine from a liquor store or buy a bottle of wine from their menu to make the sangria. BIG BUMMER! Should definitely post that online. So unfortunately we couldn't enjoy their drinks, okay let's move on. We placed several orders of different appetizers to get a taste of everything, the cilantro shrimp and quesadillas etc. all were good, no complaints. The entrees were also good but I took notice that the shrimp entrees were exactly the same, the only difference was the sauce on the side in which made the dish "different " The fish served for one of the entrees was extremely overcooked and did not break apart easily as it should. We called our waiter and brought this to their attention immediately and they replaced the dish. The salmon entree was ordered and that dish was phenomenal! The salmon was properly cooked, not over or under. The cost is a bit on the $$ side, that's a bit over the top . I am glad to have tried this restaurant, will I be back? probably not but happy I gave it a try. NOTE TO MANAGEMENT: consider obtaining a longer wall that can cover the restroom from where your guest are eating. I don't think people want to see guests coming in and out of the restroom and get wisp of the bathroom while enjoying your food. read more

The inside of Rebecca's is really cute. It's classy, trendy, and contemporary and has a really nice outdoor patio area in the back for the summer. I had wanted to check this place out for awhile, so I was pretty amped when someone suggested it. We brought with us a nice bottle of wine for dinner, and something told me not to make sangria with it, but we were convinced otherwise. There are a few options for the sangria and we went with the first one. I have to say, I was really disappointed with the sangria! First off, they didn't even use real fruit. They used canned fruit. First time in my entire life I've ever had sangria with canned fruit. Canned peaches, and canned pineapples. Yikes. Overall service was okay, not great, but not terrible. Nothing I would write home about. When we sat down they gave us cold bread with butter (a bit of a pet peeve of mine...why can't you just heat up some bread?!) Anyway, we started with the cilantro shrimp which had a nice flavor profile. Tasty, but didn't blow my mind. Then we did the guacamole and plantain chips. The guacamole didn't have much flavor, a bit bland in my book, and the dish came with a ton of plantain chips. They were certainly premade, nothing special about them. For dinner, I had the coconut shrimp savannah with a side of coconut mashed yams. The shrimp was tasty and the coconut mashed yams were my favorite thing of the evening. I highly recommend them. For dessert, I asked for a cafe con leche and I definitely got a cappuccino. I was really looking forward to having a Cuban coffee at a Cuban restaurant so this was a bit upsetting. I'll take the coconut mashed yams any day as they were super tasty, but otherwise, I don't think I'll be back anytime soon. read more

Beware fellow diners. There seems to be a "check-nazi" at one of your favorite Cuban restaurants, Rebecca's. The check will magically appear without any request for it just as your ordering your coffee and desserts. And then, just as you think you've had a stellar evening at Rebecca's, the Manager will, with a big, giant smile on her face say to you "we really need this table now". This has NEVER happened to me EVER in my life. Ditto for my lovely date that night. NEVER. We were shocked by the rude and disrespectful request by this Manager. If the Manager was given orders by the Owners to do this, then shame on the Owners also. Make no mistake. This is rude and disrespectful to paying customers. A very good night out turned into one that was just ok. Hence, they only get three stars. Sincerely, A Disappointed Diner read more

I came here this past Saturday for my birthday dinner with my boyfriend and two of my friends. I had an absolutely amazing time here, I highly recommend this place and can't wait to return! This place is small and intimate, but didn't feel crowded at all. The ambiance was great and since it was kind of dark inside I appreciated the fact that their menus are lit up for easy reading. We got the beef empanadas for appetizers and they were delicious. They were piping hot so I knew that they were fresh. They were seasoned well also! For my main course I went with white rice and the ropa vieja. Rebecca's definitely has the best ropa vieja I've ever tasted. The flavor was out of this world. The rest of my table ordered the jerk chicken, red snapper and a shrimp dish, and they enjoyed their meals as well. Also, this place is BYOB, FYI. They even provided us with an ice bucket for our wine which I appreciated. I really wish I could remember our waiter's name because he was awesome! So personable, attentive and very friendly. Come to think of it, we had pleasant interactions with all of the employees here. They are definitely all about customer service. I definitely recommend Rebecca's for a date night, birthday, or any other special occasion. The food is delicious, service is top notch, and the prices are very reasonable. Thanks Rebecca's for making my birthday memorable! read more

This place has amazing food, service and ambiance. The pork, ropa vieja, and salmon (pineapple and mango) were all delicious. It is a BYOB which is awesome if you know that beforehand and bring a bottle. We didn't so we ordered a bottle of wine (it was late and they only had white wine left). We think it was spoiled so we returned it and they took it off the bill. My advice is to BYOB but if you don't then just forego alcohol. I wondered why this absolutely terrific restaurant didn't have a better rating because the food was delicious and after reading a lot of the reviews it's mostly because of other issues, not the food. read more

I read the reviews before coming to Rebecca's and my expectations were really high. However, I am so disappointed. Let's start from sangria. We found a little bug in our sangria, I did not make it a big deal but my husband got so disgusted and keep putting flashlight to check every bite of his food afterwards. Our waiter did not offer to change and give us a new sangria mix after we told him that we found a bug in it. However, in the end he told us he did not charge us for the sangria mix. I ordered churasco steak and it did it have any flavors at all. I expected it to serve with chumichuri sauce but our waiter told us they give chumichuri sauce if you ask for it. But he told us after we complained to him while paying the bill. My husband order shrimp meal and again his shrimps did not have any flavor at all. Server was friendly and nice. However, we got really bothered by the server stuff talking to each other really loud. Especially we were the only people sitting inside and instead of enjoying our romantic night we had to listen them chatting in their native language. It wasn't professional at all. Overall, I would not go there again because nothing special and I don't think it is clean. read more
