This was our first time here. We needed to get our friends back to EWR for a flight and I found this place rated 4.6 It really didn't disappoint. We unfortunately couldn't order drinks because we had to leave right away and drive an hour home. But the fresh bread they gave use was toasty and warm. I ordered the chicken and scallops. Very, very good, although some of the rice was dry and clumpy, but all the sauce made up for it. Bife de Alcatra Acebolado was very good as well. My wife order the Picanha Grelhada which as well was absolutely delicious. Overall we had a great short time with our friends and enjoyed coming here for some Portuguese food and atmosphere.

I went here before a movie at AMC Jersey Gardens, a 5 minute drive away. When I arrived I was the only woman patron among 15 guys... the bar definitely gives man cave vibes and it was a bit off putting at first. Which is why I've given it 4 stars not 5, for an otherwise great experience.

Sitting at the bar, the food was delicious and service was attentive and friendly. I had a chicken skewer rice and beans and maduros. And a chilled glass of red house wine on a hot day - a perfect way to kick off the evening. Will come again for sure, a big upgrade on mall food!

This is among the worst place within a 100 mile of Elizabeth,they advertise Portuguese/Brazilian food restaurant, but the clients are ompletely Spanish. I tried the food today and I asked for chicken garlic, they literally pour a jar of processed garlic on fronzen chicken, I ate a smal peace and felded sick right afterter,not knowing if the chicken is even fresh. It was the worst experience ever. Believe me I know how to cook and I go to restaurants every single day. on top of that, they tried to tax me on tips another $12 Dollars. My bill was like $80, so I refuse to pay. It was unfair additionally, they violated the IRS laws by trying to charge me an extra 6% if paying by credit Card.my worsening nightmare

Two colleagues and I came for dinner and while the food was good, the atmosphere left a little to be desired. It was warm in the restaurant, but the air conditioning was working in the bar that you pass through to get to the dining room.

The strip steak with rice and fried bananas was very good and I recommend is their homemade hot sauce, seriously it's good.

I can't recommend anything more. Then what I ate, but it's clear that the food is of good quality and is prepared well by people who know what they're doing.

The place won't blow you away, but that's not the point of it. Your food is good, the service is warm and friendly while being efficient and you will leave full and happy.
