Reviews for Hornitos Bakery in Carteret, NJ
If we could give negative stars we would! We ordered $80 worth of food I wouldn't feed my dog. They even tried the food and... tried to say it was good. They even took the food we returned BACK TO KITCHEN, so I really hope someone didn't order what wedid, cause you may have gotten our returned food. Everything about this order was GROSS. Carne Asada- steak was terrible and notedible at ALL, I couldn't even cut it with a steak knife. The rice & beans was the only thing that we could eat, but you cantell the rice was old. We also ordered 2 Bandeja Paisas, when I picked it up they first gave me the "mini version" and chargedme for the regular version. I had to ask for the rest of my take out order, same thing with the steak , thought not edible ,sausage , chicharron gross, not flavorful and also old. NOTHING IS FRESH!! We returned the food minus the "almost edible" riceand beans AND.. they deducted $5.00 cause we did not return it with the order. $5 for a little bit of rice and beans??? We willNOT be returning to this locations AT ALL, EVERRRR!!! I must say shot out to their photographer because their menu pictures lookincredibly amazing and good but not in real life *don't let the pictures fool you please !!! Last thing, they are GIANTCHICHI'S! Read more
This place makes good empanadas, however the staff is extremely rude when it comes to serving client who speak english! I... understand the language barrier but the staff being cold towards me for speaking English is very unfair. Customer facing staffshould at least speak some English. Normally I would just chalk it up as a cultural clash grab my food and move on but as Istood waiting around to order Spanish speaking clients were greeted warmly and served immediately. I?m not sure if this wasintentional discrimination or just a weird interaction due to the language barrier and bad etiquette . I simply had to walk awaydisappointed! Read more

Very helpful and patient staff. My go-to baked good was sold out but the others I purchased were fantastic! Also had a steak... arepa that hit the spot. The fresh orange juice too was heaven sent on the hot day. I hope to explore more of their menu andpastries when I come up to the area again. Read more
Not sure what their problem is, but they are rude! They ignore you, and I get the feeling it?s a race thing because I don?t... speak Spanish! The food isn?t good at all and very greasy! The coffee was good but not worth the money they charge for it. Theypastries are very good clearly not made by them or there but over priced. Can get fresh made in Elizabeth for a lot less money. This place won?t last much longer because they only want to pick who they cater too. Read more
Valadamire was our waiter. He was the best waiter I've ever had, and I'm 55 years old. He was quick, came to our table to tell... us there was a delay in our beverage. 100% recommend him if you are going there. Read more
Ordered From this place for the first time the food arrived exactly on time which is great however it arrived cold and... inaccurate. When I called back to let them know they were unpleasant. The Churrasco steak and tostones were cold and rubbery.The beans were mostly water. Needless to say 1st and last time placing an order to this place. Staff and food deserve only1star at the most.

Lomo salteado was ok, taste too much vinegar. The white rice with it uncooked, hard when eating. Ordered a coffee and wasn't... giving until end of order which was to go. They forgot. Ordered food to go and was charged taxes, tips,and a fee to go! So from16$ plate and a coffee total was 23$. The order was Lomo salteado, which had steak small pieces and lots of fatty, no theregular steak use for Lomo salteado. Large aluminum plate, small cup of white rice and plantains only 2 pieces. Felt a rip off.Place looks nice, small. Read more
