Reviews for CubaNu Restaurant & Lounge in Rahway, NJ
Fantastic! It's kind of an unassuming spot with absolutely amazing Spanish food. We started with an appetizer of bacalaitos... which were the best I've ever had. Even better than I make at home. Then I had the bistec empanizado which was delicious! Therice and beans were amazing as well. Cleaned my plate. The tostones were probably the weakest part of the meal but that's theonly real minimal criticism I can give. I was a bit surprised at how empty the restaurant was and how difficult it was to getseated but it was well worth it. Service was excellent, food was timely and delicious, and I'd recommend anyone who is lookingfor good cuban food to try this place out. Read more
I had ropa vieho, traditional cuban dish, very tasty, was suprised that they had boiled euca and plantanos, usualy these are... seasonal items and difficult to find up north, the venue is located outside the train station about 20 min ride from Pennstation nyc, located in artsy/entertainent area, if Rahway, NJ, so it is a busy area, limited parking, but there is a parkinggarage nearby, also, was told at one time they had live rumba music, hope they bring it back.

Absolutely amazingly, disappointing and I will not comeback experience, I have been at the Versailles and Prices still not even... close to the ones at this place in ?Rahway Nj?, restaurant is clean and good service, but food still is far from being Cubancuisine, sizes and presentation are really unpresentable, you can do better, congri tasted as mixed rice and beans, and yes,there is a difference. Steak?s flavor was ok I will not deny, but looks like medical sample. Lechón asado, roast pork, looksand feels like tuna fish, sorry I can not recommend this place, unless you are ok with close to average. Please check picturesof Cuban Pete and have a better idea of my narrative and Maybe copy some of that. The feeling of been ripped off also count inthe customer experience. Read more
Went there on a Wednesday night and it was perfect. It wasn't crowded and the service was great. The Bistec de Pollo is my all... time favorite! Read more
Decided on Cubanu for dinner with my 2 friends after work. The passion fruit mojito was so refreshing and delicious. We split... the Cha Cha Cha sampler and chose the empanadas, plantain chips, and chorizo. All were delicious. For dinner I ordered theCamaron al Ajillo. The shrimp were a little bit soft, but delicious and rice was flavorful. Will come back here! Read more
The skirt steak is dry and very thin and the pork is deep fried, shrimp was salty. For $42.99, the meat is not much but more... with rice fillings, it?s not worth it. The Cuban sandwich is as small as an appetizer , not pictured here. Pretty disappointed. Read more
The food here is so amazing ! Everything was so on point ! The plantains , beef empanadas, Cuban sandwich rolls were amazing. ... The Ropa Viejo was out of this world ! Cannot wait to go back Read more
Delicious food and wonderful service. We had a party of six and the waiter was splitting his time across two other large tables,... and he did a great job! The appetizers are delicious, especially the empanadas and plantain chips. For my entree, I opted forsomething light: seared sesame crusted tuna over mixed greens. It was accompanied by a mango dressing, which was perfectlybalanced (not overly sweet, which is my pet peeve). Can't wait to come back and try the Cuban dishes when I want somethingheartier, as my fellow diners raved about the ropa vieja and pork dishes. Read more
