As soon as you step inside, the atmosphere is fantastic, enhanced by the classic hip-hop tunes playing in the background. The empanadas are absolutely amazing—I never thought I’d enjoy a bacon, egg, and cheese (BEC) Everything empanada so much! The Cuban sandwich was perfectly crafted and came with a side of Mojo for dipping, adding an extra kick of flavor. I brought a wonderful selection to share with my team at the office, and everything was gone in no time. If you haven’t yet visited this restaurant, I highly recommend it—you won’t be disappointed!
Dietary restrictions: If you're watching what you eat, I suggest sticking to water and opting for the steak sandwich without the bread.
Parking: Overall, this place is great with delicious food. It's clear that the cook puts a lot of love into the dishes, and every bite is an explosion of flavor, no matter what you choose. Just a reminder: be ready to spend a bit more than you'd like.
Kid-friendliness: If you're bringing the kids, they do have high chairs available.
Wheelchair accessibility: There are ramps for anyone who might need them.
Back in our wee college days, I had the pleasure of cooking alongside the talented Chef Gus, and even then, I knew this guy was different. Believe me when I say, he and his crew are the absolute best in the kitchen! Whether you're craving breakfast empanadas or a finger licking Cuban Sandwich, prepare to be wowed. 5 stars across the board; I promise you will not be disappointed.
The service here is outstanding. Even when they’re bustling with customers, the staff is always moving efficiently to get orders out. The quality of the food is exceptional, reminiscent of my grandmother's cooking from my childhood. I don’t typically dine in, but every time I walk in, the atmosphere is so positive that it instantly lifts my spirits.

I recently checked out Cubita Cafe in Nutley after seeing the chef on HudPost, and wow, was I impressed! This place isn’t just about grabbing a quick bite; it's a whole vibe. The Cuban sandwiches are to die for, and their cafecito? Absolutely perfect. Seeing Chef Gustavo work his magic in the kitchen added was a cool, personal touch to the meal.
Without a doubt, this is one of the best spots for comfort food. Whether you're craving a cafecito, shake, empanada, Cuban sandwich, or ropa vieja, everything on the menu is a must-try. The Hudson Chef, also known as Chef Gustavo, is the real deal, my friends! Go support my brother!
This is the best Cuban spot I have ever ate at. I love their steak sandwiches, and I always have to order an empanada because they are so damn good. One of my favorite go to lunch spots. The staff is always friendly and accommodating.
PRICING IS PERFECT. STAFF IS AMAZING. FOOD IS IMPECCABLE. ONLY GRIPE IS THEY ARE CLOSED ON SUNDAYS. ACTUALLY THAT THEY CLOSE AT ALL! SO GOOD SHOULD BE OPEN 24 7 365.
