Minhoto Restaurant

Easily one of the best Portuguese food I have had in NJ. Cocktails we ordered were strong and tasted great. Food was excellent, good quality and quantity for the price. Would definitely recommend. We visited on a Friday night and the place was packed, even the bar seating was gone, so do make a reservation if you are planning to dine here. Staff were attentive despite the crowd, and the service was quick enough. Parking can be difficult as well, so plan accordingly.

Great flavorful food with exceptional service. It a very nice venue to eat. I like the outdoor dining area. The parking can be difficult at times. But the food always comes out right.The white sangria is a must. Nice place to have a peaceful time.

On 2/28/26 at 5 pm my wife and I made reservation at this restaurant. The atmosphere was nice. The service was good. The only problem we had was they must’ve dumped the hole box of salt On the steaks, lobster tail, mashed potatoes and Even the salad. Who does that? My wife and I told the waitress that the food is good, but it was way too much salt on everything. They brought my wife a new flank steak with no seasoning I thought they was gonna bring me a new filet mignon with no seasoning. They brought me Chuck steak one of the cheapest cut off beef you can find in a steak and I told the waitress I don’t want chuck steak, I wanted my filet mignon they did not want to give me another filet mignon with no seasoning on it so I said OK I’ll eat half of my wife’s steak. That was very good. So t

This place is amazing from start to end. The staff is always nice and welcoming. We come here for the picanha (top sirloin) and after we tried the shrimp in garlic, this instantly became one of our favorites too (probably the best out there honestly). It’s our 4th time here this month and obviously we’re coming back. Just love it here!

Wonderful experience! The food was delicious, the service was friendly and the atmosphere was charming. The drinks were strong! We were welcomed with war, fresh bread soon after sitting at our table. Would highly recommend (especially over Valenca!!!)
