Great seafood in a local Portugese restaurant. Very good value. Comfortable parking lot right next to the restaurant. The place is not fancy, which is awesome. Very clean, fast service. Fresh seafood. I had dinner with a professional chef, who travels extensively. We were both very impressed by the quality of the food and the overall value.

We don't often get to the Ironbound section to sample the many Portuguese restaurants. This one was a real gem. Easy to get in and out, on-site parking, and awesome food and service experience.

Despite the abundance of Portuguese dining options in Newark’s Ironbound, Campino has earned a spot on my return list. We arrived early on a Sunday evening around 5:30 PM and practically had the restaurant to ourselves initially, which created an intimate dining atmosphere. The space filled up nicely about 30 minutes later, suggesting this is a popular local spot. Our waiter was exceptional – friendly, personable, and knowledgeable about the menu. He took time to answer our questions and made us feel welcome throughout the meal. We started with a pitcher of red sangria that was absolutely delicious and perfectly balanced. My wife ordered the classic paella, which lived up to expectations with particularly fresh scallops that stood out. The rice was perfectly cooked and the seafood selection was impressive. I had the ribeye and shrimp, and despite one small issue, it was excellent. The steak was incredibly flavorful and tender – so much so that it didn’t need any sauce. My only complaint was that I requested medium but received something closer to medium-well. However, the quality was so good that it remained tender even when reheated the next day, which speaks to the kitchen’s skill. The restaurant offers private parking, which is a significant advantage in this busy neighborhood and makes it more appealing than some competitors in the area. With so many Portuguese restaurants to choose from in the Ironbound, Campino distinguishes itself through quality food, excellent service, and practical amenities. The minor issue with steak temperature doesn’t overshadow the overall positive experience, and I would definitely return and recommend it to others looking for authentic Portuguese cuisine in Newark.

The food and service were outstanding. Best bacalhau a lagareiro I’ve ever had in a restaurant. Same goes for the calamari appetizer. Steaks and paella were also perfect.

I ordered the sirloin steak" pichanha". It was as hard as a brick. The greens that came with. I were also very hard. I took a few bites and left the entire plate! deeply disappointed! this is not the place. I remembered!! I can't imagine releasing something from the kitchen without the chefs testing the quality of the meat. Ive eaten at many Brazilian steakhouses I never had this experience ! The steak has always been moist and tender I will not be coming back. I wish them well.
