Juana & Gloria

This is what I call my food treasure. I have been coming here for many many years and I promise you that it has never disappointed me. Located in the heart of Union city NJ, ran by amazing women, their service is great and the food is whole and fresh. Don’t only take my words for it, please go and taste the food yourself. I always go for the fish and it’s so fresh and delicious.

I want to get the bad out of the way first. I do feel the prices are a bit on the expensive side by a few bucks, especially for a local restaurant. They charge NYC prices. They should also make sure the menu prices match what they charge. I was going to take a star away for the price but what I write next will explain why I didn't.
The food here is absolutely delicious. I have come here for breakfast and dinner and I am never disappointed in the food. The people that work here also seem very nice. I've never had issues with the service. The ladies here seem like they are in a good mood and they are working hard. All their food is good but I want to put my focus on their beans. I am a bean loving Puerto Rican and if you are a Latino restaurant that sells beans...they better be good. Well, this place has great beans. I appreciate the flavor and consistency of the beans. There are places that give you watery or watered down beans and it is a practice that I look down on because these places don't respect the details of the beans. As for my favorite dish, I am a simple guy and I enjoy their breaded chicken with rice and beans. I will also say that their version of arroz moro is absolutely great. So yes it is a bit more expensive but the richness of the food and the portions that you get will certainly make it more palatable. For this reason, I did not take a star away.

Very good Dominican restaurant. Excellent quality dominicana dishes and superb service. The local is small, but with a nice atmosphere. The "mondongo" was awesome and, in my opinion, the best I had eaten in the area. Prices are a bit high for this type of establishment, but the quality of the food compensates any difference and I think it is worth it.

Amazing soup! Must try the cow feet soup! Called over 20 restaurants trying to find this and sure did today. A Dominican gem in New Jersey!

Although this place is tied to my childhood, it doesn't seem to continue to amaze me. The food here just continues to get better over the years. I live this place, it's like coming home and getting a hot meal from your loved ones. Staff is great, and their attention to service is above and beyond.

Highly recommend this place, Literally cant go wrong with anything on their menu!! 👌

Never had a better experience in any other restaurant like i did here... the service was top notch. The mangu 3 golpes was a 10 out of 10... oatmilk drink was amazing... bathroom was clean... will be my new favorite spot. Parking is a lil tough but not to bad for the amazing food and service...

Super nice place, the food was super fresh and everything wad super fast. It was my first time trying Dominican food and I loved it

Delicious authentic Dominican food! The staff was really friendly, however they didn't speak much English, but we were still finished order some fantastic food at a really great price

My new favorite breakfast spot ❤

Tasty and reasonably priced.

Closest thing to a Pretty Authentic Dominican food… delicious, mouth watering

It the bomb food restaurant all star staff . Coffee excellent..just a great experience.

Let me tell you that you’re looking for great salmon this is the place to go the salmon is out of this world and the pricing for it it’s not bad

Been going here since 2003, the fried chicken, longaniza and ox tails dish have never wavered. Always as delicious as they should be, I recommend the mango, eggs, salami and fried cheese breakfast also with their fresh made pineapple juice. Which is super light and perfectly sweet. It also seems they take a lot of order for whole fish dishes.

Food is pretty good, service friendly,got relation price and quality.very nice lunch specials,also,have a bar,for the ones who enjoy some beer or sangria.

Everything was good. My family ordered to go. You can not go wrong with their menu. The wait staff and the counter person's were accommodating and friendly. The place is always packed.

Taste like home made authentic Dominican food. There sancocho is out of this world delicious. It's always a good time at Juana & Gloria. They also have a fully stocked bar and serves one if my favorite beers called Presidente.

The food is good and the prices are fair. Monday they have better options than the weekends. But my 5 star's go for the waitress Carmen, she is so hard worker, sweet and pleasant! CARMEN YOU ARE GREAT!!!

I love this place. My KIDS love this food. They only want Juana y Gloria since they were toddlers. The prices are amazing and the food is spectacular!!!

My family and I ate there tonight. We have heard many good things and I am happy to say that we we're not let down. The food was fresh bamd very good. The right amount of spice and perfectly cooked. The staff was friendly and prompt. The price was reasonable, even a little bit low. We will be back.

I love the food here, I mostly do dinner and beer, but tonight I went for a drink.. It was great! I asked simple rum and coke and I was surprised! Decent amount and not a water down drink for a decent price too! I was missing out!.. and the service always is always great.
