“ Stopped in on a whim, pleasantly surprised and quite good. Got the Cachopas with beef and it was great! ”
“ Have been here a dozen times. Great food. Authentic Venezuelan. Owner talked to me about how he gets his flour delivered from Venezuela. The passion is in the food. The sandwiches are delicious and the quintessential Venezuelan sandwich with avocado and chicken is like a chicken salad sandwich with avocado but so much better. The passion is evident and their service is great. No wonder their business is going strong despite the pandemic. Wonderful to have Venezuelan food in Haddon township. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience great ethnic food in south Jersey. Pictured are the empanadas and Flower Power platter with shredded beef. ”
“ Que Ricas is a fantastic addition to Haddon Township!!! I have ordered takeout from them several times and have been very pleased with the quality of the food and service. The employees are extremely friendly and attentive, my order has been correct every time. Every dish I have tried has been unique and incredibly flavorful, and it is clear that all of their products are homemade and extremely fresh. So far, I have fried the tajadas (fried plantains), tequenos (fried mozarella), a rica arepa, the jawn empanada, the besitos empanada, and a shredded beef platter. My favorite item so far as been the besitos empanada, filled with guava and mozzarella cheese. I was initially unsure of this combination, but the flavors are incredible!!! I highly recommend that you visit Que Ricas, you will not be disappointed! ”
“ Yes! Food is always so flavorful, never overly spicey. Can't go wrong with Que Ricas! We ordered for a family dinner, Carne empanadas, pollo empanadas, harvest empanadas (sweet potato, beans & kale), sides of beans, Fried yuca/casava, plain rice and rica rice. Would have taken more pictures, but the food got devoured. Everyone enjoyed it, even the kids! There is a dipping sauce that comes with empanadas- It smells like tomatillo and adds flavor. Personally we love the sauce that comes with the yuca, it is a garlic packed creamy sauce- get extra! They do larger orders for events too. Staff is always kind and helpful. ”
“ Absolutely delicious!! As impressive as the incredible food was the impeccably clean kitchen. You can clearly see how the friendly and attentive staff meticulously prepares each dish to perfection and the results are mouthwatering. I will definitely return and I highly recommend you try Que Ricas for yourself - you’ll be glad you did!! ”
“ Loved the food. So many gluten free options and served hot. The person taking my order at the counter definitely knew his stuff. Kitchen staff was friendly. ”
“ Absolutely delicious place with several gluten free options. Tried this while in town and got a rica arepa and yuca fries and HOOOOOOOO BUDDY this is so good! Whatever the green creamy sauce is, it's fantastic. Very happy we stopped. ”
“ Love this place!! Amazingly delicious gluten free food! Never disappoints. Pictured is the veggie empanada (black bean, kale & sweet potato), and the Elista arepa (scrambled eggs, tomatoes, onions & cotija cheese). ”
