Portuguese Restaurants near Livingston, NJ

“It was an excellent dining experience.“

“Excellent food and the exceptional service given by the waitresses Lucy with her friendliness and attention to all customers“

“The review that I gave is based on the fact I that the two times that my husband & I was there the service was very slow, the food was just warm and we asked the server to please make sure the food is hot & during brunch the music was so loud we couldn't hear each other talk. I might also add we don't understand the strict dress code on your website after seeing everything you mentioned unacceptable was accepted.“

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

“My family has always enjoyed going to Europa for birthdays and anniversaries. Our go to spot.“

“ABSOLUTELY GOOD. I would recommend going here if you live in New Jersey. The food was cooked really good, the staff were very nice and we payed $72! ,which isn't bad! The only thing is that it's so popular! That we had to wait for our table, BUT.. it only took us 7 minutes to get our table! Employees were SUPER NICE.“

“I have been buying food at Maria's BBQ for a long time because I really like the food there and I would like not to damage the image or reputation of the business but something made me quite curious and doubtful when the girl said that the liquid in the hood exploded so no. They had gas and that's how they were working for 3 days... Mr. Manager, if this is true, you would be expecting a lawsuit because you are putting the lives of many people at risk and I cannot tolerate this because my family also consumes your food...“

“This is my first time eating Portuguese food and I must say that I had a very good experience with them. The flounder with the spanish rice and sauteed veggies were on point! I also had the chourito and camarno which is sausage and shrimp in a garlicky hot sauce which was divine! the espresso was a nice finish to the meal. I highly recommend trying it out. André our server was very nice and attentive and the chef and everyone cooked the food to perfection. Give Algarve a try!“

“I’ve been ordering from The Pit for years the staff is always friendly, and the food is consistently fresh and flavorful. No complaints there at all.

That said, I wanted to give a heads-up for anyone ordering the beef ribs half combo. I recently ordered the same half beef rib(S) and chicken combo I’ve gotten in the past. Typically, when I order the half beef rib(s), I receive 2–3 beef chuck ribs. This time, however, I only received one rib — which was surprising, considering the plural wording and my prior experiences.

I called and spoke with Jeff, who was respectful and upfront. He mentioned that the combo only includes one beef rib and that prices have gone up (which I totally get). Still, based on my regular orders over the years, I’ve never received just one rib until now. Either way, I appreciate his transparency.

For context:
• Half chicken combo = ~$11.95
• Half beef rib(S) & chicken combo = ~$16.95

So if you’re expecting multiple beef ribs, you may want to reconsider and go for the chicken or pork ribs instead both still come in hearty portions.

To be clear, this isn’t a complaint just advice for fellow regulars or first-timers who may be surprised by the term beef rib(S)with a single rib. I’ve even added pictures in photos comparing what I received vs. the half chicken combo.

Bottom line: The Pit remains a solid spot with delicious food, generous sides, and great service just be mindful of the current beef rib portions when ordering.“

“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“
