I have been coming here for the past 3 1/2 years and I go at least once a month if not more and everything from their customer service to the quality of their ingredients and the taste is very good. I highly recommend this place & Marco the manager is great ! Thank you again guys

Not sure if the cashier knows what she was saying since she was new, but the portion size for 1/2 grilled chicken definitely got smaller! It used to be a whole tray for at least 3 people, now it is a portion size for just one person! This is outrageous! I ordered 1/2 grilled chicken and a medium black beans for almost $31. This is crazy. Either inflation got you guys or y’all need to get your shit together. Also is it so hard to add $2 on your side of the uber eats app to switch from fries to vegetables? Train your employee and don’t downgrade the portion size if you are not lowering your prices!

I love Portuguese food and couldn't wait to try this restaurant. When I arrived I parked in the plaza lot. I walked into a small Portuguese BBQ. I was greeted and sat at a table and served by a nice lady. I ordered the garlic shrimp dish and the garlic chicken dish. One with rice and French fries and one with vegetables. The food came out in about 15 minutes or so. When I dug in, I was not a big fan of the garlic shrimp because it was a bit salty. On the other hand, the garlic chicken, rice, fries, and vegetables were good! All in all I did have a good experience!

A really amazing hidden gem in the heart of Metuchen, I love Portuguese bbq and this place definitely blew me away! They have really fantastic, combos, beef, ribs, and chicken. Everything you can think of. The empanadas are amazing. Also, you must check out the specials that they have for that week! I got to try one of my favorite cut of meat, picanha, it was so good it melted in my mouth delicious! They have so many other fantastic things, and I heard that they might even be starting up some crazy stuff for dinner service!
