Parents went out to buy food from here and when we started to dig in we saw how small the portions are. Not only that the rice was bland. 40 dollars down the drain

The restaurant itself is not much to look at, but it is well laid-out, and the spectacle of the kitchen in the main area keeps you entertained while you wait to be seated. As for the food, the portions are epic, and the flavors are fabulous. The service sometimes seems overwhelmed by the bustle but in fact never ignores you. The restaurant does not serve alcohol but is BYOB, and you can find amazing wines at the Portuguese wine store half a block down the street on the opposite side.

If you like Brazilian BBQ style I would recommend. This place has amazing flavor. The grilled bbq chicken it's my favorite. It's bbq chicken is so moist and juicy very flavorful. You can get side like salad, rice, and fries it's proximately Hispanic and Portuguese people. They serve anyone especially if you love to eat! So no worries go and enjoy if your in the area!

Ribs were just alright. However the fries and black beans were good. Service was very slow. I probably won’t come back

Did you know they have a super combo? That's right! Ribs! Chicken! Beef ribs! All for one low price?!! The ribs have been phenomenal lately. The fries have gotten way better too lately, less soggy! Ferry St has been dang good. Awesome lunch or dinner spot right in the beautiful Ironbound!

I called in an order for fried pork cubes only, not fried hard. He said okay. I come down there and pick up my order it got olives carrots and shrimps, and etc. I called to let them know that this what I asked and that I’m allergic to peppers. He offered no solution. I will not be back.

Good and bad things to this place:
Excellent food , chicken was my favorite. Beef ribs were very good too !
You get fries and rice for days. Rice looks plain but has good flavor and very well cooked. Fries are just plain , they need salt and seasoning.
It’s controlled chaos once inside. They need to get better at seating people. Place is always packed lines out of the door with people waiting for tables and to go orders. Worth the wait, you will go home smelling like smoke.

This place is a lousy service we asked for a salad they did not bring them and we asked for the meat well roasted they brought everything raw and I asked the manager and he got very upset and had no respect whatsoever sincerely super disappointed and the chicken was spoiled, it had a weird taste, and in the way back to New York suddenly my son started to felt sick and he started vomiting I will never go back to that place, I do not recommend it.

Hey guys! This was my experience for lunch but 2 weeks ago I went and got my dinner from there and found a fly in the rice. It wasn’t pleasant at all but I was already home I couldn’t go back.
For the service be ready to catch attitudes there if you don’t speak their language or look a certain way.
I think the price is ok
