Puerto Viejo Restaurant 528 West Union Avenue, Bound Brook, NJ 08805

"Puerto Viejo Restaurant in Bound Brook, NJ, is a hidden gem of Costa Rican and Latino cuisine that often goes unnoticed. Their rice and beans are truly amazing, and I highly recommend trying the Azteca soup – once you do, you'll keep coming back. Edwin"

"I HAVE VISITED MANY RESTAURANTS, BUT THIS RESTAURANT BEAT ALL THE RESTAURANTS IN THE ENTIRE EAST COAST. I TRULY DON'T CARE IF ANYBODY SAY ANYTHING NEGATIVE ABOUT PUERTO VIEJO. I HAVE VISITED AND TRIED SPANISH FOOD IN THE EAST COAST AS A BUSINESS PERSON AND AS A DRIVER IN MY ENTIRE LIVE I GUARANTEE NOBODY BEAT THIS PEOPLE IN KITCHEN AND NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATION, SPECIALLY THE OWNER AND JESSICA, LIZETTE AND ANA INCLUDING THE LADIES IN THE WEEKEND, THEY KNOW HOW TO TREAT ANYBODY REGARDLESS YOUR ORIGIN, THEY TREAT YOU FRIENDLY AND WITH THE HIGHEST RESPET . IF YOU WANT TO HAVE A QUALITY AND PEACEFUL TIME, EITHER BY YOURSELF OR WITH YOUR FAMILY OR FRIENDS , THIS IS THE BEST PLACE. GOD BLESS THEM ALL !!!!!"

"Don't let the photos on Google fool you. This restaurant is a hidden gem. The interior is very warm and inviting and the decor is modern. The food is simply delicious and authentically Costa Rican. The staff is very friendly as well."

"Extraordinary Costa Rican food in a simple and inviting bistro setting. We LOVED the Chifrijo. The black beans and white rice with the fried pork morsals were perfectly seasoned and cooked. The Olla de carne (traditional beef and vegetable soup) was so delicious. The empanadas are huge, we shared the carne y queso one, can't wait to try the chicken next time. We will definitely be back."

"Incredible food. Very authentic only issue is the language barrier, but the menu is both in english and spanish. Other than that, wow hidden gem."
