Copacabana Grill - Bayonne

Top 5 in the tri-state area. Drove in from Queens NY, you would think I would find a good enough Ecuadorian restaurant at most a bus ride away. But nope. To the point where my family avoids Ecuadorian restaurants nearby. Finding this place made the bridges and tunnels, along with the tolls worth the trip. Service was good. Sure it could have been better but it was welcoming. Food was like if someone took their grandma's recipe and applied chef techniques. But not in the too fancy for its own good. In the way you can bring your grandma and she'll be impressed and still enjoy the food. The menu is interesting. I spent some time in Guayaquil, and looking at their offerings was kinda the all stars of things you'll find on street carts, family gatherings, and classics. Honestly if it wasn't for the distance I would go regularly instead of just showing off for visiting family members.

The food tasted amazing, the only thing I would recommend would be, to serve better quality of meat, even if they have to charge more. We got don Bollo and churrasco Ecuatoriano; strongly recommend! Our server July was very friendly, polite, and attentive. We will definitely come back again.

The food was good, the service on the other hand needs to improve, too slow and it was not a busy day l would recommend the food, and the place's presentation I traveled from NY to NJ, one and a half hour because it came highly recommended

Crab ceviche very tasty. Crab rice with sweet plantain ok. A little bland . Rice serves two people. Friendly service.

I loved seafood and they offer a delicious ceviche. The food is really good. Drinks are great too I highly recommend the Espresso Martini . Last but not least, the place is clean and tidy.
