Stopped in for lunch. 1st time. Ordered the salmon. Wow!!! Very fresh and delicious!! Staff was very friendly. I work in Somerset. Not many healthy fresh home cooked food. Excited to find this place. read more

First visit. Got takeout. The place was packed! Grilled chicken with garlic sauce. Purchased the half size portion and nothing about it seemed half sized. 2 large grilled chicken breasts. Huge portion of rice and an equally huge portion of black beans. Very flavorful and well seasoned. Definitely worth the 20 minute drive from my home. read more

The chicken is good but that's about it. Rice was under cooked and the shrimp was like rubber. This was our second try but no more. Plenty of other places to go. read more

Shrimp and garlic sauce appetizer was excellent except it was slightly over salted. The clam appetizer was ok. Clams were a bit tough. We ordered 1/2 orders of barbecue chicken, pork ribs, beef short ribs and the Brazilian steak. Long wait. A lot of take out going on. Looking forward to the meal........ 50 minutes later we finally get served. I have to say for half orders the plates were over flowing Brazilian steak was tough but tasty. The pork ribs were very good and so were the short ribs. Barbecue chicken was great too. Yellow rice and beans were standard. If I go again, I'll call ahead for take out! read more

Great authentic Portuguese flavor. May even be slightly better than My fave place in Elizabeth called Algarve's. The meat was perfectly seasoned. Only thing i would do would be to ask for fresh ribs as the ones i got had some over cooked parts. The Chicken was excellent. The rice was pretty standard not terrible but not the best ever. Over all i'd go back again for my Portuguese food craving fix especially for the meats and the price and of course location! 5 mins away from my new condo in New brunswick. I ordered take out and got it very quickly ( which i why im sure i got the over cooked ribs) I was expecting it to be packed with Rutgers kids, its for now Somersets best kept secret. Having grown up in Elizabeth and Newark i had a ton of options for portugese restaurants. New brunswick Somerset had no options until now! read more

Delicious BBQ food and the Lala Sandwich is a must (if you like garlic). The service is friendly and attentive. I can highly recommend the place read more

Very good food for Portuguese BB convenient location on Hamilton Street in the Somerset section of Franklin Township. Generous portions of food, well-seasoned and for the most part consistent quality. the large portions come with a humongous serving of rice, certainly enough for a family of 4-5, although the amount of meat apportioned in comparison is usually enough for 2-3 people with a generous appetite, so you may have to order some additional to satisfy.Good flavor on the meats, but I found the pork to be overcooked and tough more times than not. The bisteak is tender and flavorful. We usually get take out, but the small dining area is clean, friendly and the service is acceptable. Definitely worth a try once to see if it is your taste. I keep their menu handy all the time. read more

Excellent people! Fantastic portion sizes, affordable. Yellow Rice: Best in town by far! Pork Ribs: Crunchy and delicious, fat man approved! Chicken: Delicious! Wait time: Your food will be well cooked, packaged and ready to go in under 30 minutes. Call ahead and get instant service! These are good people that make great food at even better prices. Their special sautee sauce is marverlous, great seating. They have plantains!!! Cant wait to go back! read more

Excellent food! Always so friendly I love the garlic chicken and the beef short ribs !

This place is a small spot on a corner. As soon as you walk in you smell their delicious signature BBQ sauce and see the chicken spinning and being bathed in it on a grill. Beyond good eating and also affordable. We pick up the half chicken with rice and beans for our family of 2 and still have leftovers for lunch. read more

Grilled chicken breast in garlic sauce with rice n beans. One of the best I've had. Great food!

We had dinner with friends a couple weeks ago and were pleasantly surprised. The place looks bigger from the outside but inside is very homey. We were seated immediately and had a bunch of questions which the waitress politely and patiently answered. She even told us that portions would be huge and recommended the half portion. She was right. We ordered the half portion and even that was massive. Needless to say this place is an excellent value and delicious. read more

I came here on a whim because I had seen it on google maps and was curious. I came here with my partner and we ordered a combo and it was a lot more food than we had planned, it fed the both of us twice. My partner really enjoyed the chicken while I really enjoyed the short ribs. The rice was delicious and the staff was very friendly. I would definitely use this place for a party. read more

The food is good and would warranty about 3.5 stars. The picahdiho, ribs, chicken and picanha are all awesome. What really sets this place apart is the portion size. Insane!! A full portion Togo is served on a half sheet pan sized tray filled with rice and them topped generously with your meat of choice. There's not much reason to eat in since there are only a few tables and it's more of a take out place from my view. Give it a try and enjoy. 1 full size main can easily feed 3-4 people. read more

I was very excited to try Portuguese food and this place met and exceeded my expectations. The staff is courteous and the ambiance is great, but most of all the food is amazing. Portions are huge, the meat is tender and the plantains are the best I've ever had. I highly suggest this place if you have never been before. My only complaint as a Barcelona fan is the Ronaldo banner. read more

Oh my goodness!!...What can I say...Absolutely deliciously!!!!! Extremely fresh..Friendly service..the place is immaculately clean and you can smell the aroma of the BBQ chicken as your walking up the steps...Prices are very responsible. Can't believe I live only 15 min away and didn't know they were there. I will be a repeat customer. read more

The food is tasty and the price is great for the amount of food you receive. A small is enough to feed at least three people with a decent amount. read more

Food is excellent and fresh and the portions are enormous 2 day meal guaranteed off of it

First, they automatically add tip on your bill. Second, my bill was padded with extra tax. Take note, they use generic receipt not a Point of Sale receipt. read more

Nice family run Portuguese BBQ- clean, smallish place.the portions are large and fresh.-Garlic chicken is awesome!!-Food is terrific but the is dining area is a bit cold and the only TV is showing soccer games or Telemundo, and I don't speak Spanish read more

We love it. Under new ownership and its notably cleaner. The owners are on-site and take the time to get to know their clients and have a vested interest in your dining experience. Very caring people! The food is outstanding - Portuguese w a Lebanese flair! read more

Great food. Good prices. One plate can full a whole family.

Great family place for good food. the owners are very friendly and the husband and wife were so nice to me. I arrived right before closing and wanted the shrimp apply but the grill was off. the gentleman was so nice he gave me an alternative of a half chicken and threw in the black beans. they don't over season the food so I usually add my own flavor when I get home. yummy!!! read more

Hamilton BBQ - Pork ribs with rice and a little vegetables added. Yum!!! - Portuguese Near Me - Somerset, New Jersey

Visit the place last night. Everything was salty, order ribs and chicken ,rice was very dry and black beans look they took it out of the can and put it in the microwave, coffee was cold. Went there many times and the food was very good. No wonder it was sold to arabs, no more portuguese owners. Too bad it was a nice place read more

I had a catering delivered to a work party last night. The food was so amazing! A group of 30 people were extremely pleased with the taste. The delivery was perfectly on time. Suzanne helped me to figure out how much food to order for the amount of people I was hosting, and she was right on point. Everyone had enough food. The bill was not high, very reasonably priced. Look forward to ordering again read more

Clean restaurant, friendly environment and good food! Large portions. Order in advance!!!!!!

Ordered take out here for the first time a few days ago. Got The Whole BBQ chicken platter with fries. It was only $14 and it was a lot of food. I split it with one other person but it could easily feed 3. Solid Portuguese cuisine. Will be going back for more. They also sell somul, which is a fruit juice/soda. I think it's better than the average coke or Pepsi. read more

Hamilton barbecue is disgusting I ordered ribs take out when I got home, I open the container the meat was blue color and raw, I called and asked to speak to the manager the waitress told me the manager doesn't speak any English, so there is nothing they can do for me. People stay away from that place if you don't want to get sick. read more

Paella dish was mostly rice. Scallops were unbelievably small and thin. Not too much of shrimp, scallops, squid, lobster. Waitress FABulous.

My boyfriend and I went to this place for the first time not too long ago. We started off with the shrimp and garlic sauce, which was pretty good and a good serving size. And then, initially, we were going to each get a platter but the waitress recommended that we share a combo platter together. We ended up getting the beef and pork combo with rice and beans. I'm glad she told us to share because the portion size is HUGE. We shared and still had left overs for the next day! Both the pork and the beef were very good, though I had slightly more of a preference for the beef. The rice was also very flavorful as well. I definitely would go here again and recommend it. read more

Impossible to beat the quality and quantity of this place. I got the Paella for one and a chicken plus spare ribs combo and it was big enough for 4-5 people. Soooo delicious especially the Paella!! Big portions, affordable prices, delicious food and friendly staff! What more can you ask for?! read more

The Salmon is probably some of the best salmon that I've had. Employees were very nice and welcoming.
