Recently voted best Cuban Restaurant in New Jersey by the readers of New Jersey Monthly magazine, La Isla offers the most authentic Cuban dishes as well as some of the most creative Nuevo Latino cuisine this side of the Hudson. Best described as charming, with its fifties luncheonette setting and colorful decorations, La Isla is a local favorite as well as a destination for lovers of Cuban food throughout New Jersey.
La Isla does not have a liquor license and you are welcome to bring your own wine. A world-class selection is available nearby at Sparrow Wine & Liquor Company. Off-premise catering is available with a wide range of options.
The exterior reflects days of long ago. The interior looks as if it were boxed up and sent here from a Cuban cafe. The food is authentically delicious. Chef Omar delivers every meal of the day with fine craftmanship and seasoning. Eat there any meal. You can't go wrong. Also a great BYOB for dinner.

The Cuban food and people at La Isla is as authentic as it gets. The breakfast lunch and dinner are well priced and very well made. Try the beet salad, guava and cheese empanada, lunch specials or espresso and you wont be disappointed. Enjoy!
