Ate here with a group co-workers (total of 8 people) after work on a Tuesday evening. It had a casual atmosphere. The food was excellent starting from the appetizers all the way down to the dessert! The calamari and the shrimp during the appetizer was on point. The sauce on the shrimp was great dipping for the bread. For the Entree the seafood pasta was fresh and a generous serving portion for 5-6 people alone in 1 serving. We also had the picadinho, which was my favorite- excellent... not too greasy! And had a good portion of salad with steak. Then we each had a serving of different desserts that we shared- flan, chocolate mousse, tiramisu, cheesecake, and some pudding. All were delicious but my favorite were the flan and chocolate mousse. As for the drinks, we had a 2 pitchers of the red sangria and my friends had their beer from tap from their little waterfall grotto... it was so cool! We were all seated in the patio at the back of the restaurant which had a great breeze from outside on a nice summer temperature... our day happened to be rainy which was relaxing to see and hear from where we were seated. All in all the service was prompt and excellent from our waitress Rose. The owner happen to be in there during our visit and was very friendly and accomodating. And if you're in doubt just for the parking alone, there's a private parking lot in the back of the restaurant. Would reccomend this place and would come back again with family and friends!

Low on atmosphere, high on food! I'd say 3.5 , really. If you're looking for a romantic ambiance, this isn't the place. If you're looking for good food, filling portions, it is definitely a good place. One in our party was brought up in Newark, and one works there. They both know the city pretty well, especially the Portuguese area. They chose the restaurant. We all shared a pitcher of red sangria. It wasn't the best I've ever had, and it didn't seem particularly alcoholic to me (I'm a lightweight in the drinking department and I was barely woozy after almost 2 glasses; really unusual!) but there was plenty of fruit to go around and it was refreshing enough, plus plenty of ice water, on this very hot evening. We also shared a plate of really delicious garlic shrimp. One of us had the "green soup," kale (spinach?) and potato. She liked it. My husband and I each ordered the paella marinara and this was really good! Each plate came with half a lobster, perfectly cooked, plus plump clams, and shrimp and scallops, on a huge amount of yellow rice with peas, the standard paella base. I relished that seafood! The rice was very good, way too much to finish. Our companions had one paella valenciana and the other had a shrimp dish that was enough for her to take home half of it! Service was very attentive and again, it was hot indoors even with the AC going, so we appreciated the water refills (maybe why I didn't get plowed by the sangria, come to think about it! ). The small room we were in was separated by a door from what appeared to be the bar area. Men's room is in there; ladies room in our part of the restaurant, large and clean. One of the other couple had been there with several friends a while back and had really liked the steak. So, again, worth coming for the food, for sure!

A little warmer in the dining room than I would prefer, but staff was great, quick service, group split a pork/beef/shrimp picadinho, really good, and plenty of leftovers to box up.

I had delicious grilled sardines and salad...it was good, i though the sardines was a bit too salty though.
Service was exceptional as well as the food.
