The food was very delicious. The place are hardy. I definitely would return back to this restaurant. Feel like Colombian or Latin food this is a hit. The empanadas were delicious and full of meat.
If you like sweets this is also the place for you. There's a great bakery when you first walked in. He started eating with your eyes before you got to taste any of the baked goods.

My family loves Mambo Cafe. It always satisfies us with both their savory and sweet menu items. My husband is from Elizabeth and we were happy to find a great Colombian restaurant close to our home in EHT. Some of our favs are Bandeja Paisa, Lomo Saltado, Ropa Vieja, tostones amd the Colombian empanadas. Always great food, extremely clean, and even better wait staff.

Stopped in for breakfast and loved it... though no fault of theirs , the guy hanging out in front of the place was sketchy. Loved the pastry loved the coffee and my steak and eggs breakfast was absolutely perfect ! Our server was super polite and helpful. Hard to say anything critical ... just a great breakfast!

Omg best empanadas around!!! We enjoyed every bite of our food and the service was great. I can't wait to go back and try the breakfast menu. We enjoyed our empanadas so much that we ordered a half dozen to go! Check out their baked goods as well :)

The food here is so great and authentic! Portions are huge and everything was made fresh. If I’m in the area, I’d come back for another meal!

The food is beyond delicious, the staff is so sweet. Restaurant is super clean and very spacious. We had dinner for a friends birthday and went back the next day for breakfast 😋 will definitely be eating there again.

First, I have to add the disclaimer that I'm originally from Elizabeth, NJ and then moved to Union, NJ..
Colombian food is like childhood and DELICIOUSNESS for me. I absolutely love good Colombian food.
We stopped off at Mamboa Cafe and picked up a class bandeja paisa (of course) and there is a choice of ground beef and steak. Get the steak, obviously. The meat is thicker than most Colombian restaurants which means it was dried out in the cooking process. I was absolutely impressed if not blown away by their preparation here. The chicharon is the star of the show of course and the portion size was generous and well prepared. EVERYTHING about a bandeja paisa is amazing for me. There's simply no better dish at a Colombian restaurant (for me).
We also ordered a $10 pernil entree which came with a ton of pork, rice, beans, and two large tostones. Omg this was literally the best bang for your buck at $10.
The Cubano was slightly disappointing. It had the makings/ingredients of a cubano but it wasnt pressed properly as a a classic Cubano should have. We went home and grill pressed it again and it was better leftover at lunch. The portion size again was huge and came with a crazy amount of crispy hot french fries.
In addition, I ordered an assortment of breads, dessert/flan, and empanadas to go. Very good. The breads weren't the best I've had but decent. Empanadas are better at my spot near home but everything else was quite excellent and I'll definitely be back!
PS the young woman who helped me was so friendly and patient with my questions. I really appreciated her smile (even under a mask I could tell she was smiling!).

Very good spanish food. My family and I had an American, Dominican and a Colombia breakfast all at the same time. My family loved this place so much that the next morning we returned to have breakfast again. The second day I had a traditional Honduran breakfast. It was really good.
