Tinto Coffee — Restaurant in Moonachie

Stopped by on a Saturday morning, lost in passing town, and in need of the first cup of hot coffee of the day, this coffee shop called at me. Quickly came in, happy to see it was a spanish establishment, ordered my coffee. I saw a pre-made arrepa, sitting with the empanadas similar in size, I ordered this, and it figured it would be a few bucks. Shocking that was not the case. Coffee was $4 bucks, and the Arrepa was shy of $8 dollars. Noticing it wasn't fresh and way too expensive, I removed this from my order. The young lady in the front was friendly and understanding. Paid the coffee fee plus tax (wild) 4.26 and went on my way. While driving away and having a few more sips of the coffee, I can tell the milk was spoiled. Left a nasty aftertaste in my mouth, I believe they just reused the milk in...

I ordered a couple of empanadas that were clearly old and dry, the kind you’d expect to be tossed out, not served to customers. On top of that, they were scorching hot, like someone tossed them in the microwave for 10+ minutes. It completely ruined the texture and taste.

To make matters worse, I also got a pastry that was microwaved when it was clearly meant to be baked. It came out rubbery and chewy, like I was biting into a piece of gum. Totally unappetizing. And last but not least a very sour natural orange juice?? No thanks.

And the cherry on top? It was all overpriced. For what I paid, I expected at least decent quality not reheated leftovers lol. Definitely won’t be coming back, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who actually...

Stopped by on a Sunday lunch time to grab something quick. Asked for 3 empanadas de carne. I got 1 chicken, 1 cheese and 1 beef. Chicken had rice in it, and beef had lots of potatoes in it. (Almost no beef!) The skin is too thick. Horrible empanadas compared to Noches. Each was $2.50! So dishonest to mix other kinds when order was carne but if she didn’t have enough carne, she should’ve just mentioned about it. I’ll never go...
