"Time and time again, Envigado impresses with its FIVE STAR FOOD AND SERVICE! Having lived in the Union City/Weehawken/NYC area for thirty years and being a loyal customer, I can confidently say this restaurant has never let me down. Once, when I had pneumonia, Oricales—truly the best staff member ever—sent me a large chicken soup on the house! The cafe con leche is consistently excellent—always hot, strong, and served in a generous cup. The food arrives promptly, fresh, and absolutely delicious. My favorites include the churrasco, the fried fish entrée, and the egg/ham/cheese sandwiches. Their freshly squeezed orange juice is simply to DIE FOR! If you haven’t tried the pork belly yet, you really should—it’s a must. The cracklings are wonderfully crispy. While it’s not exactly diet food, it’s authentic and incredibly tasty. I also highly recommend the buñuelos; they come in two sizes and are crispy on the outside while being soft and warm inside. Paired with a cafe con leche? OMG! Plus, all the bread and baked goods at Envigado are made in-house, so when you order a delicious Cuban sandwich, you can be sure the bread is fresh—made that same day by them. I cannot recommend this authentic restaurant enough! Many places try to replicate Cuban/Colombian/Latin American fusion cuisine, but none have succeeded like Envigado, which truly cares about its food and, more importantly, its customers. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. If I could give them ten stars, I absolutely would! I can’t recommend them highly enough. Treat yourself and visit them today!"

"Edit 1/10/23: Wanted to add the owners reply as a photo for folks to see an example of the service. Edit 9/12/22: I finally got food from this place! Service is still horrible, as I was ordering food a woman came in and just shouted her order, the person helping me started a conversation with her. Unbelievable! I raised my voice and finished ordering but the worker asked me to repeat what I wanted. #Facepalm So, the pernil with rice, beans and plantains was good! The rice pudding tasted like soap, the empanadas and mini arepas where crusty and dry (days old? . Overall, I rather get pernil from the dominicans down on 99st. Would definitely not ever try to get food here again. Would not recommend. Original review: I have been here three times in the last four months and have had the same negative experience with the workers. There is no line, so if you come in and wait to be served, the workers behind the counter will just randomly help whoever is closest to them. If you do manage to get their attention they will walk away if you don’t give them an order. I asked one of them if they were still serving breakfast and she said yes, then walked away to help someone else. On a different occasion I asked a worker if the bandeja came with sausage along with the chicharrón and steak, she said “I don’t know, I’ll have to ask” then walked away to help someone else. I’ve yet to taste the food because no one has ever taken my order. Even when the place is empty the workers are busy doing something else with their backs turned to the counter. People will randomly walk in and yell out their orders and the workers say “ok!” I find this process chaotic and prefer to go down to the Colombian restaurant down on 55 ave and 99th street where you can stand online, order, pay, and get your food."
