Juanita's Polynesian Delights — Restaurant in Newark

What can I say, the food is obviously amazing. The turkey tails are one of the most delicious food I have ever had. The seasoning/sauce is perfect. The fat melts in your mouth like butter. They also have lamb ribs and corned beef which were also great.

A true hole in the wall spot. Don’t expect to go on a date here. Nothing fancy. Take your food and enjoy it at home. They do have chairs and tables when you just can’t wait to dig in.

Very reasonable prices and...

Ok 1st off my photos do a great disservice to the food. I let my curiosity get the best of me. My 1st time ever having Polynesian food.

The super sweet lady who I want to call Grams.(Grandma) was the sweetest person I've encountered in a while. Her lvl of patience with my questions and mispronouncing of some of the dishes was above board. She gave me samples of just about everything. To be honest thats part of the reason my eyes were bigger than my stomach

The food 5/5 Lamb, corned beef, and turkey tail was tender, and flavorful basically delicious. The Taros leaves were so good. I didn't even know turkey tail was a thing. But hot dang it was good.

I definitely have to go back with some...
