La Churreria - Union City

Excellent options await you as soon as you exit NYC through the Lincoln Tunnel. The menu is fantastic, and the service is incredibly quick. The dishes have a delicious Cuban flavor. We highly recommend the Biftec de palomilla, Caldo gallego, Medianoche with coffee, and the Natillas.

CUBA Eat the World NYC Review: La Churreria is a no-frills Cuban café that opens early enough for breakfast, but it's especially known for its affordable lunch and dinner options. The place often fills up with a mix of older gentlemen discussing politics, office workers grabbing a meal, casual diners enjoying cubanos and coffee, and families. On weekends, families often dress up for Sunday and take over several tables pushed together. Despite being an economical spot, the flavors provide genuine comfort and warmth. One standout on the daily specials list is the Bistec a la Palomilla ($8.95). While it might not be the most extraordinary cut of meat, the simple spices on this thin steak will remind you of Grandma's cooking, even if your Grandma hails from Iowa.

I absolutely adore this restaurant. The food is fantastic, and the service is exceptional. I highly recommend it!

I was very disappointed!!! The dish was too watery, almost like an unfinished soup. I loved it the first time, but after my order yesterday, I will never order camarones enchilados again.

Everything was absolutely delicious! The throxtail was tender and packed with flavor. The passion fruit shakes were just as wonderful as I had hoped!
