Dreams Restaurant
1036 North Ave, Elizabeth, NJ
Crema's Take
“This cozy Ecuadorian and Colombian spot in Elizabeth serves up authentic dishes made fresh daily, from fluffy arepas to perfectly seasoned steak that'll make you forget you're not in Bogotá or Quito. The staff genuinely cares—they'll froth your milk without asking and treat you like family, whether you're a regular or a weary traveler with a delayed flight. Their specialty drinks shine just as bright as their food, and the fresh-squeezed orange juice and tres leches dessert are worth the trip alone.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. Slow-sit spot. Full breakfast on the menu. Family friendly.

Best of 2 countries in one place! Love the colombian empanadas and the traditional Ecuadorian food! Order by phone and pickup the food under 10 minutes, very close to Newark airport.
We were traveling and flight got delayed. Found this little restaurant with my son. Great host & food was delicious. We went for steak, rice and fried banana. Tried dessert 'tres leches' , was fantastic. Thank you again ✨️

Steak sandwich was great. Their hot sauce isn’t too spicy, so I added a good amount of that. Just got a regular drip coffee and I appreciated that they frothed the milk without even asking for it. If you are staying at one of the nearby hotels I would definitely recommend…
