“Not sure if I should give it 3 or 4 stars because it was good and it’s a really nice restaurant, but for the price … you should not want to eat something after you leave! My husband went to McDonald’s afterwards because he was hungry after spending 300 on dinner. The fact that bread and dessert wasn’t included in that is wild. I never ever finish a meal. I always have food to take home. And I basically licked all three of my plates clean. Nothing to take home. And nothing was really that great either.“
“I loved this place. They serve family dish style food. 2 people can eat from 1 dish. They are definitely not cheap with the portions. The servers are also top notch. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone in the area. They asl have Valet Parking across from it. You won't be disappointed.“
“Stopped in to check out the place for a private party. Had a quick fancy drink, that was amazingly delicious! The owner is very friendly and the place is as clean as a whistle! Definitely coming back hereParking: Had to circle around a few times to find parking. Someone left so I was lucky!“
“Looks like a BBQ place, smells like a BBQ place. Food was to die for! Me and my father came here to eat on his 30 minute break, and they were very quick with our food. I'm picky when it comes to seafood, especally where I get it from, but I walked out with a to-go order of garlic shrimp and I'm very happy I was talked into taking some home, its sooooo good.Everyone was friendly and we were always checked up on, I will definitely be returning.“
“Their food is amazing, staff is always attentive and they make sure the sangria is always full and you have enough warm bread to go around. They have really nice party rooms and the staff for parties is always great as well.Parking: It’s hard to find parking but there is a large lot on the other side of the road that you may use with a short walk to restaurant.“
“I recently dined at this restaurant and had a delightful experience. The fried calamari and flatbread appetizers were delicious, setting a high standard for the rest of the meal. For the entree, I opted for the lamb chops, which were cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. The food quality was excellent, leaving me thoroughly satisfied. Apart from the food, the atmosphere of the restaurant was fantastic. The ambiance was inviting, and the cleanliness of the place added to the overall pleasant dining experience. The staff were attentive and friendly, enhancing the overall positive vibe of the restaurant. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great dining experience. The combination of delicious food, great atmosphere, and excellent service makes it a standout choice.“
“This place is delightful. My go to is the Portuguese rolls breakfast sandwich. It's the best in the area. The empanadas are pretty good too. Pastel de nata ::drool emoji:: say less. You can't leave here without a dessert. Stop here if you want good eats“
“My wife and I visited for dinner and ordered the Rodizio. Everything was very tasty and there was nothing I could complain about.Our waiter was Omar and he was very good.I'm used to going to the Newark, NJ location.I highly recommend these locations. My understanding is that the Manalapan, NJ location doesn't offer rodizio service.“
“Good place ,good food and service at decent prices..Parking: Parking is ok . But on weekends and busy days Parking lot is always full. Have to find Parking on the street.. But it's worthwhile..Wheelchair accessibility: My mom uses a wheelchair. It's accessible..“
“I've ordered from here when I lived close.. now I was visiting someone in hospital and had no wallet on me but the owner Carlos and the sweet girl at the counter gave me a monster take home platters of the tastiest BBQ I've had in long time and he just outright gave me the meal without any money truly act of incredible kindness and class... Carlos thank you and God bless you and ur family... much appreciated and will always recommend and eat here forever... thank you my friend“
“02.23.24 I was looking for a 'chill spot' conveniently located between work and home. I went on Yelp and this place popped up. I just got off work and I arrived about 10:20pm. This bar/restaurant was still serving food from the entire menu. Andrea made my classic margaritas (5 star). I paired the margaritas with caldo Verde soup (5 star) and clams casino (3 stars). If I get off work early again and I'm not in the mood for typical 'bar food', this is definitely my 'go to' spot.“
“Delicious food, nice sized portions, and the sangria is really good. Would have been 5 stars, but it's a bit expensive...Not enough to keep us away, just be prepared! We shared 1 appetizer, had 2 meals (we did pick the most expensive items on the menu, lobster and Chilean sea bass), 1 dessert, 1 pitcher of sangria, and 2 Irish coffees, and our bill was almost $300. But, we'll be back because it's THAT good!“
“Paulo’s BBQ is a hidden gem catering to the South Plainfield community. The food is fresh and delicious, and the drinks, particularly the spicy mango margarita, is a MUST. The manager, Matheus and his exceptional stsff exceed expectations to ensure every visit is memorable and pleasurable. If you find yourself in the area, don't hesitate to give this place a chance. You'll leave satisfied, guaranteed.“
“Typical tasty portuguese barbecue with huge portions. Differently from other places, this one has a liquor license. The place looks like an old diner, very charming. There is parking in the back. Cheap, great for takeout but comfortable for dine-in.“
“Great place for bar, to watch the games. Home to 12 flavors of Sangria in a pitcher. They have take away containers as well if you care to enjoy one with your significant other at home. They have film dining as well. Great for date night. Dinner for 2 unde $100“
“Lovely renovated. Outstanding service.My steak was undercooked but quickly corrected. My friends veal was overcooked.She switched to a shrimp entree, which was perfect. Will go back but will order one of the shrimp entrees.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, but someone came to help. No signage how to operate.“
“Came in on a Friday with my brother and so happy to see my favorite bartender Jimmy. He went out of his way to make sure I had a sample of the seafood salad to make sure I liked it. Amazing white sangria and more than enough food and plenty to take home. Love coming here and sharing a wonderful meal and great laughs with Jimmy. Come and see him!!!!!“
“Easy parking being they have there own lot I suggest making reservations I arrived early didn’t have to wait but by the time I left it was a full house all tables takenExcellent service very attentive to your ever want… Sangria was one of the best I ever had for our main dishes we had cataplana was amazing loaded with fish and also pan seared cod was phenomenal huge portions as well couldn’t even dent it took most of it home overall extremely satisfied and I highly recommend going as you will not be disappointed bon appetite“
“Bakery has become popular fast because all breads, rolls, and pastries are made in-house daily. Breakfast sandwich rolls taste better than 99% of sandwich shop rolls in my opinion.I think the top tasting items are the breakfast sandwich and eclairs. They also serve espresso and specialty coffees like Starbucks.“
“Wonderful place ! The cappuccino is the BEST my wife and I have ever had. The orange juice is very fresh and tasty. The pastries that my wife and I have tasted are also very yummy. M y wife always has a veggie omelet and says it is excellent. The bakery/deli is owned and operated by a very kind and warm family who always have time to chat and make you feel very much at home and welcome. My wife and I love Nossa Aldeia.“
“Authentic Portuguese cuisine!Daily specials available.Love the white sangria.My husband enjoys the grilled octopus.The shrimp and churico appetizer was so tasty and great for dipping the Portuguese rolls in the sauce.When you order an entree- you have choice of salad or soup.Dessert tray is presented after your meal.Loved the Serradura ~ Portuguese Sawdust Pudding!Expresso and cappuccino are great.Servers attentive and friendly.Typically just walk in and are immediately seated.Haven’t made reservations.Parking on site.“
“recently dined at Tribos Peri Peri and had a delightful experience. From the moment I entered, the ambiance was inviting and the staff, including Shiva, were incredibly welcoming. Shiva's attentive service added to the enjoyment of my meal. I opted for the peri peri chicken, and it was perfectly cooked with just the right amount of spice. The sides were also flavorful and complemented the main dish well. The portion sizes were generous, and the presentation was impressive. Overall, Tribos Peri Peri exceeded my expectations, and I would highly recommend it to anyone craving delicious peri peri cuisine."??“
“amazing treats for sure. always made fresh and tasty. i order for my family and friends when we gather together to celebrate the holidays and birthdays. They’re always a hit! I even order empanadas when cooking just isn’t for me on a certain work day! ? and i also have to add that the staff are super friendly and always go out of their way to accommodate any order.“
“This restaurant was a nice gem. ? My fiance and I are locals of Carteret and decided to stop by here for a bite. This place did not disappoint. The food was great, the drinks were amazing and the atmosphere was very welcoming. Don't hesitate to stop by here!!!!!“
“I love this place! The amount of food given for the price is fantastic! I have food enough for 2-3 days with one combo platter. The ribs are SO delicious! My favorite combo is the chicken and ribs combo with fries and yellow rice. And the bbq sauce? I wish I had a whole botle of it! Service is great and the people that work here are so nice.“
“Food is always great and very consistent. Even on Saturday night, it's ready quickly. We get take-out frequently; at least twice a month. It's so good every single time. One thing I appreciate is the quality of the chicken; so often from other restaurants it's tough or fatty which is gross, but this place's chicken is always cooked correctly with no fatty pieces. Lemon chicken is amazing.“

“So I stumbled on this place and decided to try it because I was starving. I must say the gentleman that helped me had excellent customer service skills, was funny, courteous and helpful, the food came out pretty quickly, the environment and was clean but more importantly the food was great. Definitely would recommend it and would be ordering from here more often. The only thing i would change is having Portuguese rolls instead of sliced bread.“
