Is a family owned and operated restaurant that brings to New Jersey a traditional and exquisitely delicious approach to Colombian food. Located between the industrial and residential area of Union City we offer dine-in, take-out and delivery service. You can even call ahead to dine-in and we will have your order ready for when you arrive, or we can also have it delivered right to your workplace or home from our kitchen.

With a focus on fresh ingredients we offer our customers delicious and authentic Colombian recipes in a family-friendly atmosphere.

Our kitchen gets busy early every morning since we start from scratch every single day making fresh empanadas, pandebonos, buñuelos and all of those delicious “antojitos” that you can enjoy at Carretero 48.

Our menu consists of home-styled dishes reflecting heritage and traditions from diverse Colombian regions. Additionally, El Carretero 48 provides a unique, warm, and inviting atmosphere, so you and your friends and family can feel right at home. Here you will not only be treated as a customer; you will be treated as part of the family. So come on over and experience the combination of great food for a great value with a great service!
