I went back to this location and their burger is still delicious. My most recent order included a Cheese Egg Bacon which was huge and very tasty. I also ordered their chicken pie (empadão de frango) which is also very decent. Staff is friendly. They don't have a parking lot but there's street parking nearby. read more

Best place to get a x-tudo especially after taking the train back from the city. This is a great spot that stays open late for some of the best Brazilian burgers you can get read more

Its a 24-hour Brazilian spot in the heart of the Ironbound. Their hearty sandwiches, like the Da Hora with chicken, beef, bacon, and more, are packed with flavor and served on fluffy bread. The menu boasts variety--burgers, coxinha, acai bowls, and tasty desserts like brigadeiro. Friendly staff, generous portions, and a casual vibe make it a local favorite. Parking can be tough in this area, I suggest doing car pool whenever possible. Decent price considering the restaurants here can be a bit pricey. read more

If u don't eat steak or pork this is not the place for you or If u don't speak Spanish or Portuguese just keep walking. I stopped by this restaurant because my co worker wanted a chicken sandwich from here. Apparently they are known for their unique sandwich's that has the small potato sticks in it . But in his opinion the chicken sandwich was just mediocre. I ordered the veggie Brazilian wrap which is actually a pancake with sautéed veggies it in . But the taste pattern is very weird and there were barely any veggies in the pancake. The staff is rude and barely speaks and understands English. They were struggling trying to take my order! Waste of my time & $10. read more

Because this location is open 24-hours, there was a time when I would pick up Altas Horas late night for me and my partner. He'll get the vegetarian sandwich (I think it's #7 or salada something). The choice of thin, crispy fries pairs well with the gigantic sandwiches here. And you need to try all the different sauces on your burgers (that mint green one is SO GOOD!). Also, the desserts behind the glass case are very good. During the warmer seasons, they have outdoor eating. I love this place! read more

O pior serviço possível. Entrei com meu cão de serviço para apreensões para obter um pedido de PICK up, o proprietário disse imediatamente que eu não posso estar lá. Ele pediu documentos. Eu disse que não preciso mostrar isso para você, também é um pedido de retirada... e ele suspirou e revirou os olhos. Continuou me dando olhares sujos enquanto nossa comida levava 30 minutos para 3 coisas da padaria, lembre-se de que você nem mesmo comida.. horrível se você tiver um cão de serviço, a propósito. read more

Casual 24/7 eatery with good quality and fairly nutritious options for how casual it is. Very good portion sizes for the price. Quality is consistent. Limited seating inside (pre-COVID) and seating outside (is appropriately socially-distanced during COVID). -16. Da Hora sandwich: egg, bacon, ham, hamburger, chicken breast (unbreaded) and steak. Very good portion for the price. Will fill any gal and even guy even with a large appetite. -Bolo de nozes: white/vanilla cake with thick pudding-type filling with walnuts and lots of fluffy frosting (a little more than my liking as it was quite sweet after a while). Very good. Would def recommend. Would feed 2 or more (or 1 dessert lover like myself slowly paced, lol) -french fries: too skinny for my liking (McDonald's thickness) and initially came out cold but the waitress did not hesitate to exchange them when we told her. Would highly recommend for a casual meal when you have a large appetite or after a night out. read more

I wanna start off by saying I love this place! I've been coming here since I was a child and every time I introduce this place to someone new they always end up loving it. The food is always amazing no matter what Brazilian salgado you end up getting you'll never be disappointed wether it's the coxinha, kibe , esfiha, pastels it'll always been good! The staff is always super friendly and very attentive, always making sure you're taken care of and satisfied. It's a really good environment overall!

Late open hours, Alta's horas across of Casanova Grill, the biggest sandwich I ever ate.

If you're looking for a filling meal, I recommend coming here for one of their sandwiches. They're super hearty and very tasty. The sandwiches can be made with chicken or beef with so many toppings on a fluffy bread. Something's to note is that even if you order to go they add a 20% gratuity. It's also located in the ironbound so parking is not great. They're open pretty late so it can also work out as a late night meal after a night of drinking haha Been going here for years and I will most likely be back again! read more

Don't hurt me for this super duper late review!! Though I forgot to do this review last year, getting to it now. I found one of my post it's with the thoughts below from 8 months ago. I had one of my folks pick up that Da Hora sandwich as payment for me fixing their computer. This sandwich had everything and the kitchen sink in it, lol. But man the combinations were freaking awesome. Felt like a sandwich that a college student will make when they have the munchies and just want to cook whatever is left in the fridge. This thing has Chicken Breast, Sirlion Steak, Hamburguer, Mozzarella, Bacon, Egg, Potato Sticks, Lettuce, Tomatoes, and it was hella good!! Can't find my photos, thought I saved them to the cloud, but they went poof. read more

This is a staple for the local students. It's cheap food that is quick, generous in portions, and cheap. They're open late night so naturally it is popular with the students. As someone who is no longer a student, I'm not sure I'd come out of my way. I'm not knocking the classics but I think once it's definitely more of quantity over quality situation. They have a variety of latin-style burgers and fries and drinks. The restaurant is located in the heart of Newark so be careful with where you park. Tip: They are well known for their banana slices in their sandwiches. read more

Altas Horas - Brazilian Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

I enjoyed the sweets at Altas Horas! The Brigadeiro cake was my favorite. I visited Altas Horas a few weeks ago about an hour & a half before Newark's curfew (8 PM) went into effect so they were wrapping up for the evening. Luckily everything I ordered was already made and sitting behind the glass. I ordered a slice of Brigadeiro cake, a slice of Carrot Cake, 2 Brigadeiros, and 1 Coxinha (breaded cone-shaped fried chicken) all for about $17. They did not have any Pão de Queijo left which is understandable given the time but they did have other Salgados (savory fried foods) available. Brigadeiro cake- It was my favorite. It's a chocolate cake with layers of chocolate condensed milk and chocolate sprinkle icing. The slice of cake was huge! It took me 3 occasions to eat it all. The cake was moist and a little wet which reminded me of Tres Leches. I recommend! Carrot Cake- I'm a big fan of Brazilian Carrot Cake especially because of its liquid chocolate icing but this cake was not good. The cake was so hard. It had the consistency of cornbread- super dense and pretty dry. I ended up throwing my slice away. Brigadeiros- Very good! Brigadeiros are balls of condensed milk and cocoa powder rolled in Chocolate sprinkles. The ones at this bakery are huge so 1 Brigadeiro is plenty. Coxinha- Another Brazilian delicacy. My husband really enjoyed it. read more

Very poor customer service and rip off. Don't go here or order from here. They act like they're doing you a favor by taking your order.

The 24-hour Altas Horas offers the hugest, craziest Brazilian sandwiches around the clock! Our server at this local, casual restaurant only spoke Portuguese, but it was immediately clear what we wanted to order. The Da Hora sandwich was labeled on the menu as "The Biggest of Altas Horas" and came with a hamburger patty, grilled steak, grilled chicken breast, a fried egg, and bacon and mozzarella cheese wrapped in ham, along with lettuce, tomato, corn, and potato sticks, all in a soft bun. This was an incredible-looking monster of a sandwich, but disappointingly, all the grilled meats were rather dry and flavorless. However, the server brought over several housemade sauces, including a creamy molho verde (green) and molho rojo (red), which added nice flavors to the sandwich. We also ordered the Salada de Frango, a salad of lettuce, tomato, onion, olives, and hearts of palm, all topped with a generous portion of grilled chicken. Again, the meat was rather dry and flavorless, and the vegetables weren't as fresh as they could be, but everything here made for an incredible value meal nonetheless! read more

I was craving this certain type of sandwich so I found myself here. The place itself is small so don't expect a lot of seating. It sits on the corner and is in the ironbound section of Newark. My waitress was bilingual but my friend who is Brazilian ordered for me because she speaks Portuguese. The food came out very fast and tasted extremely fresh. They also have cakes and desserts on display. I was too full to try any but they looked good. The only downside to coming here is the parking situation . Street parking is hard to come by especially on the weekend. Expect to walk a little while. read more

I have traversed this good realm for a good moment, and I'm proud to say that I found an establishment that understands how to make good steak in this area. For the price, this place gives you an outstanding burger with enough contents between its buns to slay an average coyote. When I ordered my "X-Fominha", I was immediately in Wolverine mode. Any word that is preceded with an "X", I know you have to be X-Men ready. So, there I was in my yellow spandex, and I realized that I had taken the "X" too literally. I did not care, I spent three hours donning an outfit that was two sizes too small for me. I'm dressed for the occasion damn it, I ain't leaving without my burger. Now, I waited for a few minutes to get to the front of the line and Sabertooth decides to crash through the front window, it must have been confused by the mirror wall, so he charges at what he thought was me, and ended up knocking himself out. I offered a slight pause of concern, then ordered my X-Fominha. Now, let me describe this to you, if there was a Beast, and not like X-Men Beast, this thing was it. When they handed me my burger, I knew I was dressed for the occasion. A lady looked over and offered her sympathies, BUT SHE DOES NOT KNOW WHO I AM. This burger had Bacon, Ham, Egg, Potato Stick Fries, Sirloin Steak, Corn, Tomatoes, and enough lettuce to count for a cheating vegan. The Sirloin Steak was handled professionally, it was not hard to chew into it and the mountain of other ingredients I named previously. They also provided some special sauce which corresponded brilliantly with the sandwich. At this point, Sabertooth became jealous and attacked me in a rage. I smote his ass and finished my burger on his body. I left satisfied and still had money left over for some late night festivities. Even the woman in the establishment who cast me a look of sympathy, now looked at me with respect that I know I deserved. 4 stars for my Brazilian brothers and sisters. You guys made me feel like a hero. read more

Altas Horas - a man standing in a restaurant - Brazilian Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

Food is ORGASMIC ! sheesh ! Service is very disappointing and the cleanliness is tragic. We waited 17 mins to be served, counting from the second we sat down. Once the waitress acknowledged us the food was tendered pretty quickly! So I was happy about that since I was starving, and I usually get hangry. To eat, I had the X California burger and my oh my, I literally cried when I took my first bite. Everything tasted so fresh and clean I enjoyed every single bite. Although it's questionable and maybe frozen "burgers" .. it's still good. As far as the cleaning, they need to hire a professional company to come and help them clean. When you can see chunks of dirt and scum on the table ...... that makes me question the kitchen for sanitary purposes. Granted, I know this is in the heart of Newark.. but man !!! Get professional help when it comes to cleaning, especially now as we face this pandemic. read more

I was going to write this whole review while holding down the ALT key, but I didn't want to seem like an AS. So I decided against it. Sometimes Fox's reviews really BORE US He'll recommend something, insist and EMPLORE US We'll tell him it sucked, then he'll simply IGNORE US Whenever we try a new place he's been there BEFORE US But now we realize that Fox must ADORE US As he writes flowery food reviews to LURE US Because we tried the food & drinks at ATLAS HORAS And it's so good that I think we need a CHORUS Atlas Horas, Atlas Horas, the greatest Brazilian food in the land Atlas Horas, Atlas Horas, until you try it, you'll never understand Atlas Horas, Atlas Horas, drink Abacaxi while you eat an X-Tudo Atlas Horas, Atlas Horas, I wonder if this song will be as good as Sussudio. What to get: X-Tudo (brazilian burger w/ everything) and an Abaxaci Com Hortela drink What else: I hate to say this is better than your fave Brazilian spot... but it's trudo. Anything else: Tudo de mis Xs love the X-Tudo. Also: The Caldo De Cana is awful. Stick to the one at Oasis of Boston. It's fresh squeezed sugar cane juice. Also their X-Banana is an X-Tudo with added banana. I doubt I'll like it but omg, if you're one of those Brooklyn types, you must order it, right? I first found this restaurant using the ALTASvista search engine. I didn't drive here, nor did I taxi. Instead I rode in here on my HORAS. True story. Sort of. Did you know that Ironbound in Newark, NJ is basically a mini Portugal-meets-Brazil? It really is, and you'll find some of the best Portuguese-speaking deliciousness here, and I'm not just talking about the girls and boys. Altas Horas is a 24 hours restaurant with some of the best Brazilian treats in the US. Only Oasis in Boston ranks higher on my mental list. The X-Tudos here are taller than the Altas Mountains of North West Arfica. It's literally one of the biggest burgers you'll find anywhere, and it's under $10, and is exactly like some of the better ones you'll find in Brazil. It's served at a bunch of other places all over the oh-so-friendly Ironbound District of Newark (the friendly part was sarcastic), but Atlas probably has one of the best ones, although the rolls they are served on are occasionally, regrettably, stale. But certainly out of the half dozen I've had, it wins. Even better than this crazy Brazilian burger is the Abacaxi Com Hortela drink. So delicious! It's basically blended up pineapple and mint. I'm in heaven. I could swim in this stuff. In fact I think I will. Let's fill the pool, people. Usually when a pool turns bright yellow it's a bad thing. But not anymore. OK, still sometimes a bad thing. Like if it's the YMCA Pool. But anyway. The other fruit drinks are great too, with a lot of tropical options. Prices aren't awful, especially considering some of the prices of other Brazilian sit down places nearby. And how good this stuff is. Lots of other options on the menu, and when you sit in, they sometimes bring you heated up Pao De Queijo, which are cheap, so order some anyway. Melty, delicious, Brazilian cheesy bread. Heaven. The Pao (as I said) is good here, and they have Sumol cans, which are Portuguese and fantastic, especially the Orange one. Forget American Orange Soda. Try this and you'll never go back. Tastes of real oranges. Service is phenomenal, which is unusual in these parts, because Ironbound has, on the whole, some of the most brisk and unfriendly service I've had anywhere. I think a couple of the boys here fancy me, and flirting with them while waiting for my food is always fun. I think it makes any female companion jealous because they're usually cute young Brazilian guys in ridiculously good shape. Not everything I've had here has been good. Skip the Acai completely. You'll have to go to Boston for that. Also if you want custard tarts, then it's all about the bakeries nearby, especially at Teixeira Bakery. OMG such amazing custard tarts. I love tarts in general and usually there is custard involved when it's me and a tart. So anyway. Make sure you stop by Altas Horas, surely one of the best 24 hour restaurants you will ever find. Now I have to press ALT-ctrl-delete and shut down my computer. ALTernatively I could write another review... Nah. I think that's enough for today... for this week... for this month... for this year! (This Lifetime) Oh and if you feel the need to go to church after this meal to worship the Lord for giving you such delicious food (Jesus Cristo!) then make sure you kneel at the ALTAS. And by the way my pony had a sore throat earlier, but don't worry, he's just a little horas. read more

Since when do Brazilians do late night burgers/sandwiches better than Americans? Wow I stepped into this spot on my recent biz trip, and was delightfully surprised. The waiter only spoke Portuguese but he was able to understand my Spanish, and he u understood when I said I was really hungry "tengo mucha hambre" haha He pointed to a behemoth burger in the menu and I said YES! That This beast came out and it was even bigger than I expected, it was massive! It had 2 sirloin steaks, one chicken breast, an egg, lots of ham, crunchy fries and cheese, also a very yummy sauce like a garlicky mayo. WOW this was exactly what a really hungry person wants! I bit into the massive burger and the steak was tasty, chicken and the rest was also good, overall a yummy yummy burger. Sadly I did not finish it, i tried my hardest but i was maybe 3 bites away. Brazilian burgers are a thing you all! If you're ever in NJ I recommend this place that is open til 2am on weekends! read more

Altas Horas is a small Brazilian spot that gets pretty packed late night. I personally think it's the best place in Newark to grab food after a super late night of drinking and/or studying. I mean, they are open 24 hours after all! The meat quality is not the best, but when you put all the ingredients together - the sandwiches can be pretty tasty (especially when you're inebriated). Love having potato sticks and extra green sauce on my sandwiches! They are HUGE though and the prices aren't all that bad. read more

I've only gotten the burgers here so can't say much about their other items. The burgers are perfect for late-night unhealthy cravings. Really, I'm so happy whenever I get to order from here. So why only 3 stars? I typically order the x-tudo picanha and most of the times, everything is great. But then there are some times when the cut of meat is terrible and it has a lot of gristle. That's just a poor decision made to pass that onto customers. Don't forget the sauces! read more

Me and my brother traveled from Bloomfield to Newark on my quest to find the highlights of Newark gastronomical delights, and Altas Horas sure was worth the drive! The burgers here are out of this world. I don't think I've had anything as unique and delicious as this insanely outfitted steak sandwich; I'm not even sure you could call it just a steak sandwich- it was like a Rodizio on a delicious soft roll. Steak seasoned perfectly, with chicken, hamburger, canadian bacon, an egg, corn and potato sticks, with romaine lettuce, fresh ripe tomato on the most fantastic roll. When I ordered it, I couldn't imagine why anyone would put so many ingredients on one sandwich, but after the first bite, I was hooked. And every sandwich seems to come with an egg, and bacon, and corn... SO freakin yummy. THe fries we shared were in a huge basket, definitely not a single serving, and we also ordered fresh mango juice squeezed on demand it seems- with no added sugar, a steal at $3 a pint. I asked this sinewy young waiter with the size 28 waist if he ever even ate this stuff- judging by his 2% body fat I cant imagine how- he smiled and laughed, but after seeing the flow of beautiful brazilian people coming in and out of this 24 hour spot, they must be hiding the secrets from the west on how they can eat like this and not be 500lbs. THis place is so great, so cheap and 24hrs, I am lucky its not closer- I am saving myself for a few days to return, but return I will. Writing this at 1:35am, I am rationalizing the trip to try the X-banana burger...I read here, its awesome. read more

Every review: X banana. X banana. EXBANANA! So, me: X banana. Sure enough, you have sweet mushy banana, salty potato sticks, whatever white sauce is on there, and it works, just like everyone says. I don't need to rehash that. My first impression was bun. That's a homemade bun and it's delicious. I don't care if it's bigger than the burger. I'mma enjoy that bun hun. I got it with a bite of banana, a bit of veggies, and that is great. You don't even need the meat for all this to work. Meat: Less impressive. I had gristle in a couple of bites. There's a reason this is inexpensive food. Oh well, that's the low point. Also, the menu suggested there was mozzarella on this burger. Didn't see any hint of cheese. I don't know what happened there, but now I have to deduct another star. Pao de quexo: Had to get one. Actually, 3 small ones for just over a dollar. Deal. I love these things. They're sitting cold, not hot, but these are absolutely the cheesiest paos I've ever munched. You can see the cheese, and the bread pulls apart nice and cheesily. Definitely good. Desserts/verdict: I gotta say, the burger wasn't all that impressive. At the same time, a number of the desserts looked most delectable. I would totally come back to try some of those and just skip the breakfast/dinner menu altogether. And with this place open 24 hours, it's never the wrong time to give this a try. A weak 4 stars for now, but could be very strong once I hit up those cakes. read more

1) I imagined the sandwiches would be bigger, but I barely could eat half! I ordered the grilled chicken, corn and mozzarella cheese. So good. A little bit too much mayo and I would of preferred their homemade mayo instead because it was more flavorful. 2) They did not have the Brazilian soda I wanted but the boy/mesero taking our order suggested another that was okay. 3) On that note the wait was bad and there was obvious preference to those who spoke Portuguese. My group of 5 were really understanding. Even when people glared at us for our seats. 4) Tried their chocolate pudding. Nom nom. I would get so fat trying their food and I do not even care. Too bad I live in NY and was just here by chance. Eat their sandwiches. Or desserts. And bring me some. :) read more

Altas Horas - Da Hora Bread, Chicken Breast, Sirlion Steak, Hamburguer, Mozzarella, Bacon, Egg, Potato Sticks, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Corn & Mayo - Brazilian Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

Looking for a late night spot Sunday night, I remembered a friend's recommendation to check out Altas Horas in Newark. Place is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Can't beat those hours. The menu is monstrous. So many things to choose from. But i was here for what was described to me as "a good sandwich with a ton of sh*t in it." Go big or go home. Ordered "Da Hora", advertised as the biggest sandwich on the menu. It was gigantic. Da Hora had a chicken breast, sirloin steak, hamburger, bacon, egg, cheese, 2 slices of ham, mozzarella, potato sticks, lettuce, tomato, and corn mixed with mayo. The meats were all cooked well done, but the other things in the sandwich hid any dryness to them. The corn mayo mixture was excellent, I feel like it tied everything together. They also have 3 bottles of sauce, one is ketchup the other 2 i think are chipotle ranch and some sort of spinach ranch mix. I like the 2 ranch based sauces. UPDATE** OMG THEIR SMOOTHIES ARE DELICIOUS! Perfect consistency, not too thick, not too thin. Great flavor, not artificial tasting at all. read more
