WOODBRIDGE, NJ — A Colonia restaurant that opened in 2018 and was long breakfast-and-lunch-only is now serving dinner, on Friday nights.

Located in the heart of Colonia, Estime’s Cafe is owned by brothers Duke and Dumond Estime. Estime's Cafe is located at 238 Inman Ave, Colonia, NJ 07067. Here is the full menu: https://www.estimescafe.com/me...

Duke is the head chef, and said he cultivated a love of cooking growing up in Haiti alongside their mother and five siblings. He says those family dishes laid the foundation for him to become a professional chef, having trained at New York City's Mark Hotel, which was named by Travel + Leisure as the #1 City Hotel in The continental United States, and was at the James Beard House.
