La Cascada Lounge: Reviews & Ratings
So I found myself in Manville at the Manville Public Library for a free Irish music concert(by Fiona Tyndall), which was very good! Then I was hungry, so I narrowed down the choice to La Cascada. Manville is quiet and when I arrived at this lounge/ restaurant, it was unassuming. It was also clear to the patrons that I was not a "local". However, the staff was friendly and courteous. I ordered a Margarita and guacamole. It is safe to say that I have had a lot of guacamole and without hesitation, this is one of the best guacamoles that I have had!!! It was creamy, fresh, and seasoned perfectly! The presentation was as pretty, too! It came in a container on a banana leaf with pipping hot and delicately seasoned corn chips!!! Oh, by the way, the portion would be enough to share with 4 people! I am so happy I can snack on it tomorrow! For the main meal, I ordered the salmon, which was fresh and cooked properly! I would tell you to make an effort to get here. After all, nothing is that far in NJ Finally, if you like sports, there are enough flat screens to watch them on!!
I love this place. The food is always fresh and delicious, and the prices are right. They have 2 Sangrias; one red, one white, and they are both fantastic. However, not for the driver.
go for the food, not the ambiance. The food was fresh and authentic Costa Rican with Italian influences. Great value for money. The music was a bit loud but the quality of the food more than made up for it.

One of La Cascada's standout offerings is its menu, which includes a variety of aperitivos and ensaladas that highlight the authentic flavors of Costa Rica with delightful Italian influences. Take for instance the Ceviche De Camaron - a luscious Costarrican shrimp ceviche, priced at $12.95, that will transport your taste buds to the coastal shores of Central America. Freshness is the hallmark of each dish here—an element that resonates in customer reviews.
- Ceviche De Pescado - ($9.99) - A fresh fish ceviche that captivates with its zesty flavors.
- Timbal De Aguacate Con Camarones - ($11.50) - Creamy avocado paired with succulent shrimp, a highlight of the menu.
- Ensalada De Pulpo - ($9.95) - This octopus and fish ceviche salad is a refreshing twist that should not be missed.
And don't overlook the heartwarming arroz selections, with the Arroz Con Pollo ($11.95) and Arroz Con Camarones ($13.95) emerging as crowd favorites, each bursting with flavor and authenticity. The prices are reasonable, ensuring that you can indulge without breaking the bank.
Customer reviews consistently highlight not just the top-notch quality of the food, but also the historical warmth of the service. Patrons like Shannonine C. rave about the guacamole, describing it as one of the best she's had—perfectly creamy and fresh. When combined with freshly cooked chips served on a banana leaf, her experience became one to remember. Robert B. echoes these sentiments with praise for the delicious sangrias that add a touch of sweetness to the robust menu.
In summary, La Cascada Lounge is not just a place to eat; it is an experience that celebrates the rich flavors of Costa Rican and Italian cuisine. Make it a point to visit and indulge in the culinary delights that await you. After all, in New Jersey, nothing is ever too far for a slice of heaven, especially when it comes with a side of friendly service and vibrant sports viewing!
