"The food is delicious. The regular combo (chicken and ribs) is enough food for 2 people at a good price. We prefer the ribs over the chicken so nexr time we are getting a "whole order" of ribs instead of the "combo". They don't charge a delivery fee if you're nearby. You can order through them instead of door dash"

"The food is absolutely phenomenal! Each dish is bursting with flavor, and it's clear that fresh, high-quality ingredients are used. Serving is reasonable for the price!! The seafood paella is worth to try for, and also the bbq chicken!! It's the kind of food that makes you want to savor every bite and leaves you eager to come back for more! First time ordering here, did not disappoint! Highly recommend"

"What a wonderful find! Truly authentic Portugese food made by chef's trained at the best at home and in Newark. Caldo Verde was a great choice robust with plenty of greens and sausage, chickpeas salad, my guest had bacalau special and I had bronzino. Cooked to perfection, not over salted mixed veggies and boiled potatoes. Just simple and delicious. The owner was so happy to make us happy. Fabulous food and experience. The portions are huge, so be prepared to take food home. Thank you for a great meal and experience."

"Last Friday I went to have lunch here with my sibling, and I have to say the food was absolutely delicious! From the portions, the flavor, and the authenticity. The Garlic Shrimp App is a must have, if you don’t try it you are missing out. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw they had Sumol as a drink option. The two people who served us were very sweet! I can’t wait to go back and try their desserts next. My only two complaints would be that the food took super long, especially when we were the only two in there and the prices are too high."

"You get a lot of great grilled meats at a decent price. I always come in w an empty stomach so I can feast. The half grilled chicken, chicken soup & chicken sandwich are always my go-to. The horchata is watered down, I will say."
