La Frontera Caribeña Restaurant

Small, unassuming joint in New Brunswick, serving up comfort Colombian. Street parking. Its one of those brochure menu places, can't find it online and have no idea the actual names of what we ordered. We were struggling with the terminology but staff was patient with answering our questions. She also turned down the tv when we asked and let us hang out for a good hour or so. Thumbs up. They got fruity milkshakes (raspberry confirmed delicious), empanadas, arepas and a whole bunch of others in between. Most of which is deliciously fried, tons of flavor, with a perfect ratio of crispy and chewy mouthfeels. Pan de bono. Cheese bread thats not just cheese bread... its blow your mind chewy cheese bread. In a donut shape. It doesn't look like something that will rock your world but rock it i

I’m new to the area and have been looking for a good bandeja paisa. This place is a hit! Highly recommend!!

Recommend : arepas fritas Ok: garlic shrimp (shrimp al ajillo) Meh: pandebono The arepas fritas were good but could use some more seasoning. Pandebono had a tough hard shell and were mostly hollow inside. Garlic shrimp was good with medium sized shrimp and the sauce is a bit runnier. They were out of empanadas when I went and I didn't know enough Spanish to ask. Small seating area inside restaurant.

I still get my empanadas & don't mind jumping on train & walking 15-20 min and/or even riding 20+min to get food there!😋 Their food IS always on point & service is 1000%. 😍🥰 Eddie goes out of his way to ensure customers lv happy & very satisfied!🙏❤️🙌 In my top 3 pLaces to visit & eat at when I visit New Brunswick area👌😝Very highly recommend to everyone!!

Wow. Found this place since I live close by, and they really do have the best empanadas ever. 5/5 Stars every time. Perfectly crispy, never oily or soggy, the filling is hot and always fresh.The owner makes the sauces in house and fresh all the time. I have a tradition of going every Saturday because they are always so good. Make sure to get their early before they sell out!
