I ordered the garlic shrimp and there’s no garlic in it. It’s just shrimp on top of plain rice and plain french fries I’m so disappointed. I don’t know what happened to this place when Danny was there was good. I don’t know what happened.

This use to be my go to Portuguese spot in central Jersey. Not sure if there was a change in management but the ribs (taste and amount) are not the same nor is the chicken. This establishment fell off. Will not be coming back anymore.

Hate to leave a bad review, but if you're going to go to vacation and close the restaurant, make sure to update your Google profile, so people don't waste their time driving there.

My wife and I have been coming here for years and never had a bad experience until recently. The last two times we visited, the service and food quality were not the same. When I walked in and greeted the young gentleman at the counter, he didn’t respond — just gave me a sour look without saying a word. It left a bad impression.
Also, even though we picked up the food within 20 minutes like they said, it was cold and the fries were stale.
We’ve always enjoyed Estrela da Serra BBQ and hope this was just a rough patch. Hoping for a better experience next time.
Listen. I have been going to this place for years! We love it here and we’ve ordered trays for multiple family events and just for dinner plenty of times. Today however, my husband went to pick up the food and the man had a terrible attitude. I had also gone a couple weeks ago and he also had a bad attitude with me. I lets it slide because he usually is not like that and we love the food. However, today our food was cold when my husband brought it home and the French fries were stale! This has never happened to us before with this restaurant. The man on the phone said 20 minutes. My husband left 10 minutes after I placed the order and we live 10 minutes away from the restaurant. There is no reason why the food should be cold. It is very upsetting as we come to you guys often and have suggested our friends and family to go to you guys. I will not give less than 4 stars in hopes this is a one off situation. But I hope it changes and the man in the front taking orders changes his attitude.

Where have you been all my life?! This is the BEST Portuguese food I have ever eaten. The meats are so fresh, moist, and flavorful! Red beans are super delicious along with the tres leches. Can’t wait to try the whole entire menu :] Hands down - my new favorite spot ❤️
Something changed over the years. The food use to taste so good. However this last time i found it to be inedible. Really sad this use to be my fav spot!

Decided to give it a try as I would go quite often when Danny was owner. Worst decision. Judge for yourself from the pic. “Where is the chicken”?
