5/5 Kevin’s C. 2 years ago on Google
Some
friends
of
mine
live
near
Rumba’s
in
Jersey
City.
I
was
at
their
place
and
they
already
eaten.
I
asked
them
if
they
recommended
any
spots
in
the
area
to
get
something
quick,
not
too
heavy.
They
both
recommended
Rumba’s!
They
said
they
go
there
all
the
time,
and
almost
never
fails!
So
I
walked
a
couple
blocks
down
to
Rumba’s
to
see
what
they
were
about.
It’s
a
Cuban
restaurant
with
lots
of
culture
and
energy.
Just
the
decor
was
enough
for
me
to
wanna
order
something.
They
have
this
red
counter
top
with
stools.
It’s
very
60’s-esque.
I
dug
it!
The
staff
are
mostly
Spanish
speaking,
sweet,
charismatic
women.
One
of
them
took
my
order,
which
was
simply
two
chicken
empanadas,
as
well
as
an
irresistible
slice
of
their
chocolate
cake.
The
chicken
empanadas
weren’t
as
moist
as
I
would’ve
preferred,
but
still
delicious
and
incredibly
flavorful!
It
had
a
pretty,
crispy,
salted
crust
that
complimented
the
chicken
well!
I
was
very
impressed
with
the
flavor
of
the
chicken,
and
wish
I
had
ordered
more!
I
mean,
I
will
for
sure
the
next
time
in
the
neighborhood,
amongst
some
other
menu
items!
Now,
as
for
this
chocolate
cake.
Girl,
this
chocolate
cake.
Whether
or
not
it’s
made
in-house,
I’m
not
sure,
but
girl,
this
chocolate
cake.
That
thick
icing/mousse
was
giving
very
much
chocolate
pudding
(but
richer)
decadence!
The
edge
of
the
cake
had
these
crumbly
Oreo-like
bits
that
just
added
to
satisfaction.
The
cake
itself
was
moist
and
luscious!
Even
if
it
isn’t
made
in-house,
wherever
they
outsource
from,
GETS
IT!
I’m
so
glad
my
friends
live
near
this
place!
I
have
another
reason
to
visit
:-)
