First-time visit and I’m already a fan! Came in for some comfort food and the mini casuela with chicharon was incredibly flavorful. Excellent service, too.

First time here- I came for a quick bite. I was greeted by their friendly staff. Restaurant is spacious with seating area available. The place is nicely decorated. I bought chicken empanadas and they were so tasty. I really enjoyed them- they were very filling and seasoned very well. Will definitely come again.

Had a fantastic experience with Bendita Arepa. Very nice and clean environment. Everyone there is very friendly , happy and welcoming. The food was very tasty and delicious. I highly recommend you try their Mini Paisa, Empanadas and Arepas they come with a delicious sauce pink sauce and cilantro mayo sauce very great! Overall the place is great and I highly recommend it’s great for families as well they have a great menu for kids. Our server was very friendly and professional she made sure we had our food and was very polite asking us if we wanted more drinks. Very great service! Highly Recommend!!

This is my second time getting food from here & I must say the food is amazing ! Its authentic Colombian food, not like other chain restaurants who serve Americanized Colombian food. Bendita arepa is by far the best Colombian food I’ve had here in Paterson. The service was fast and the servers were all nice & helpful. My favorite was definitely the limonada de coco (coconut lemonade) & the ceviche de chicharrón. I also got the bandeja paisa which was so good ! The beans were very tasty. I ended my meal with an oblea which is by far the most authentic oblea I’ve ever had here in the US. It took me back to Colombia when I took the first bite. Im so glad I found this spot and will be definitely coming back.

Great place for small bites , mini empanadas are good, and mini buñuelos. Good prices and people were very pleasant . Would definitely come back

Last Saturday night, my friends and I placed a large order (2 arepas, 10 empanadas, 1 molcajete, and a side of fried plantains). Unfortunately, the order arrived incomplete and poorly prepared: only one arepa was delivered, the molcajete came in a very small tray without plantains, and the extra side of plantains never arrived.
We tried calling several times as soon as we received the order, but no one answered. The next day, we finally spoke with a lady who, instead of listening to our complaint, told us the order was perfect and argued with us. As regular customers, we know that is not true.
The food here is good, but unfortunately, something is always missing or wrong. With this poor service and lack of response, we’ve decided not to order again. It’s a shame because we truly liked the food.
