    Great Latin spot in the Newark business district! My favorite is the Pollo La Plancha!

    The workers are super nice and their rotisserie chicken combos are on point! Great place to grab lunch near Rutgers.

    Lunch specials for under 10 bucks and it's a lot of food (1 bg serving of main dish and heapings of 2 sides) I went for ropa vieja, arroz mexicana and maduros. Riquisimo!!!

    Ofrecen un especial de lunch: una entrada y dos sides por $7.95. El Pernil es brutalmente bueno, espaldilla de puerco asado con salsa de limon y ajo, acompañado de arroz blanco y frijoles negros 5/5
