Leña Y Carbón Iii - Passaic

Best Leña in the area. The food is always amazing and the staff is great every time! I think I have been to 4 other Leñas and this one tops them all. The Tallarines Verdes con Churrasco is on point! Highly recommend!

I came here with my dad one Saturday because he swears Leña makes the best ceviche in NJ. Me, not being a seafood person, decided to order the tacu tacu con churrasco instead. I expected a typical churrasco— skirt steak. But I got a large T-bone steak instead. It was HUGE. I’m not a fan of t-bones so I didn’t finish my meal. The waitress explained to me that this is what a churrasco is for Peruvians. I’m Peruvian, I may not look it, but I’ve never understood a churrasco to be a T-bone steak. Even if that is the case, they shouldn’t write “skirt steak” on their menu because it’s kind of misleading. Anyway, I give 3 stars because my dad really enjoyed his ceviche so he’ll definitely be back.

Not what I expected, I ordered lomo de Carne and chicken chaufa with 1/4 carbon chicken, the roasted chicken was ok the chicken was not very clean found feathers attached, the chaufa rice was hard, tasted mixed with old and new rice with minimal amount of chicken. Really terrible, Also the lomo was all fries and onions with a lil bit of meat and I ordered with white rice it came with chaufa rice. Definitely will not ever order from here again. Also they are over priced with minimal amount of food. The only thing I ate and was up to par was the tostones, Very disappointed. Not what I expected after reading the positive reviews. Trust me I’m not one to make negative reviews, but this I had to.

Cozy small place to come to eat delicious Peruvian food definitely love the freshness of every plate!!

Essentially, the overall dining experience is very nice. The food can't get any better and the prices are fair for the portion size. great waitress is always very nice and friendly. but I highly recommend this restaurant. the quality of food and drink The food is outstanding!
