“Muy buena comida 👍🏽 Excelente“

“my family and I tried them for the first time last night. This is the best Ramen in the area that I have tried so far! This will definitely be added to our regular rotation. Highly recommend!“

“Best fried chicken around. We ordered the 6 piece meal and the pieces are huge. Friendly staff as well. Also tried the fries, mashed potatoes, and coleslaw as sides and can't complain about any of them. The one drawback was the jumbo shrimp was a bit on the salty side. Parking in the back. Pricing is great especially these days. All the food is made to order so be prepared to wait 20-30 minutes if you order there but it's def worth it. They have a high chair as well for those who need one.“

“Its my familys go to Portuguese restaurant in Elizabeth there friendly and the steaks are great“

“Have only good things to say about this restaurant. Great service and the food is delicious. I loved their ribs and chicken combo and the picadinho. The other reviews were right about the combo. The portions are big enough for 2 people. They have so many different flavors for the empanadas can't wait to try them all. I had the banana Nutella and the cheese guava and they were so yummy. There are tables both indoors and outdoors and they also deliver. I'm definitely coming back!“

“First time there, will be back!!! Great food awesome value“

“food is great and friendly staff.“

“Everything was delicious. Food was fresh, warm, hearty, savory and satisfying. Great service! Comfortable atmosphere. A great option for family meals, when unable or unwilling to cook at home. 😁 Good sized portions. I had the Chicken in Garlic Sauce with rice and beans. My friend has the BBQ Ribs and Chicken with Rice, Cabbage and Boiled Potatoes. This spot has been added to my weekly meal rotation.“

“Exceptional.....if ur lucky enuff to find parking...ur lucky enuff“

“I’d been searching for a BBQ caterer in NJ for a birthday party and feel like I hit the jackpot with Jersey Joe’s. Cindy was helpful and very busy but I was able to place my order after a few days of going back and forth. Everyone at the party was floored by how good the food was! The Alabama chicken wings were delicious and had a nice kick. The brisket was incredibly tender and flavorful, grateful that they came without bbq sauce so that it could be added as desired. They also included extra sauces when requested which was great. The chopped chicken was tasty. The street corn blew everyone away, it was that good! The potato salad was solid and the cornbread was abundant. The mac and cheese was delish and we’re glad we added the breadcrumbs like the kid delivering the food suggested. Speaking of which, the delivery was the best I have ever experienced. He brought the food in, placed them in the warmers, filled them with water, and lit the sternos. He deserves a raise and promotion for his customer service, I only wish I remember his name. I highly recommend Jersey Joe’s and will be using them again in the future along with many of the guests at our party!“

“full rack with devils spit sauce“

“Drove over an hour to visit and it did not disappoint! It’s hard to find a full gluten free establishment and they completely nailed it! The 1/2 yardbird pieces were deliciously crunchy and seasoned. The crispy chicken sandwich was amazing! The ‘naughty’ waffle fries were a fun twist to the ordinary waffle fries. Fried pickle spears were so tasty. OMG and cannot forget the cornbread! The cornbread was the size of a mega muffin and so flavorful! Huge bonus… GF beer on draft!!“

“A place that surprised me; a spectacular octopus, its texture perfect, served on a bed of al dente vegetables and delicious potatoes. Actually from the bread and the house olives which are a spectacle. Going through their traditional Portuguese wines, everything was more than wonderful. Price quality ratio 10/10. I will definitely return.“

“Great food, great service! Amazing atmosphere! I felt like I was back in Korea. A lot of Banchan!“

“I have been wanting some great Jamaican food since I moved from NY in 2021. Thankfully I found this spot. I ordered the jerk pork, rice and peas, cabbage/carrot dinner, along with a large goat soup, festival and a Soursop drink. The pork is divine, well seasoned, juicy, tender and succulent, the rice and peas were flavorful and moist, the cabbage/carrots were very tasty too. The “goat” soup had 1 piece of goat inside but that not withstanding it was seasoned well. The Soursop drink was delicious a bit sweet but still very good. The festival was really good and a great match for soup. I will definitely recommend them to everyone I know and be coming back soon! Visit them today and don’t delay. There’s plenty parking“

“Brazilian rodizio and the empanadas I also like the serradura (cookies and cream)“

“No more lunch specials!
However, reasonably priced. Each $11.60
Great portion size.
Chicken cooked great!

Set up as a take out place.

You pay for any sauce requested (.50-$1)“

“Super la comidas muy buena“

“I have always loved this franchise, first time visiting this one in Parsippany and I liked it more than the others, although the wait to be seated was a little long due to the number of people, the waitress who served us had an excellent attitude (too bad I don't remember its name), the food came out in a timely manner, it was delicious and had a very good presentation (sorry but I remembered to take the photos late 🫣) as well as the drinks.“

“The food is the best in the area!!“

“I love eating here ?Good price and good food. I like to order very delicious baked salmon and the shrimp are also spectacular. The only thing they should have is a more varied menu because it's tiring to order almost the same thing ??‍♀️ I know the menu with my eyes closed, they should put more new things to attract more customers.“

“Great food we had the parrillada, chivito, y canelones con carne for dessert chaja, milhojas y massini also very good! Very good sangria too! Service was very attentive! Highly recommend we will definitely go again!“

“Excellent food and service“

“Thank you Edwin and Jocelyn for your wonderful Portuguese BBQ. It is always delicious!“

“Food is always good to excellent. Good hard working regulars always say hello; many have become good friends. The Portuguese " Cheers" kind of sums it up. Karokee on a Friday or Saturday brings a mix of music from people who just love to sing and to be around good people.“

“Michelle is the best bartender Friendly atmosphere great wings Redd is great too!! Busy nite Michelle was awesome! Handled the crowd like the pro she is!!!“

“KB’s just catered my daughter’s 3rd birthday and I literally want to plan another party just to serve this food to my friends and family again. Every guest raved about the food! We had ribs, chicken wings, potato salad, baked beans, yams, cornbread and the BEST mac n’ cheese we’ve ever eaten. Additionally they were super friendly and easy to work with and super punctual with delivery. 10 out of 10!“

“Ordered for the first time today through Uber Eats. Had I ordered just the chicken I would have given 5 stars. The best Portuguese style chicken I’ve had in a long time. It was full of flavor and perfectly cooked. The beef ribs (short ribs) were also good, just a little tough as it was sliced a bit thick and was slightly undercooked so that made it a bit chewy but had good charcoal flavor. The sweet plantains were the best I’ve had from a restaurant, perfectly caramelized. Beans, fries and coleslaw also good. Ordered the flan but I’m so stuffed I’ll have to wait to see how that is. This is a keeper for sure and I would love to order from them when having a crowd for dinner.“

“I really liked this place it was to small to eat in so we took our food to the local park but then realized their wasn't no forks or spoons to eat it so remember to check you bag other then that this place was amazing your nose will lead you to the front door just off of smell you kno going to be good. I had the ribs and red snapper, which didn't disappoint it was my first time eating that fish and It was amazing. This place is definitely worth a visit! Enjoy“

“chicken is delicious string beans potatoes fresh“

“Such a great time performing at the Russian hall last night. Awesome atmosphere and staff !“

“Amazing Service and Incredible Food from Michael's Backyard BBQ! Michael's Backyard BBQ was an absolute lifesaver at our event! From the start, they were prompt and respectful of our schedule. We had two food trucks planned, but unfortunately, the second one was completely unprepared to handle the crowd of 100 guests. Michael, being the consummate professional, immediately stepped up and adapted to the situation. Not only did he manage his own flow with ease, but he also picked up the slack and accommodated way more guests than initially expected. His quickness, attention to detail, and ability to stay on his feet was truly impressive. And let’s not forget the food – the smoked wings were INCREDIBLE! Our entire teaching staff is still raving about the meal days later. Michael’s Backyard BBQ was the highlight of our event, and I highly recommend them for any gathering. You won't be disappointed!“

“Unassuming place with fantastic Peruvian cuisine. Don’t let the outside fool you. Go in and taste for yourself. Friendly service. Fresh, homemade, authentic food. They have take out, delivery and they also cater. My boyfriend and I were very impressed with their hospitality.“
