I've ordered takeout from Justin's twice and both times the food was solid. The chicken, rice, French fries, and pork ribs are flavorful, well-seasoned, and delicious. The hot sauce and barbecue sauce on the side are a nice touch. Prices are very fair, portions are large, and ordering over the phone was easy. My food was ready in under 15 minutes and came out hot and fresh. Great option if you need to feed your family quickly and on a budget. One small downside: they forgot my black beans once, which was frustrating, so I suggest checking your order before leaving. Also, it's located on very busy Bloomfield Avenue with a New Jersey Transit bus stop right in front, so parking can be tricky. Mostly street parking. read more

The older lady taking orders is super rude and nasty . I was joking with one of the younger ladies and she cut off our conversation and took my order with a attitude read more

Nope. Dry dry, dry chicken, and pork. I ordered Uber eats on a Monday night. Totally unsatisfied! Our favorite Burnett restaurant doesn't do Uber Eats, so we decided to try Justin's BBQ. The food was so dry my throat was hurting!! Anyway, I will never recommend or order again. read more

This was the most disgusting and disappointing food ever .They have rats and rodent.Someone spit in my food the service was not good. Why is the a place was a mess. read more

I would never step food into a place that's rude over the phone, wish I was able to smack the person on the other end. The disrespect itself was enough for me to never want to try this place. read more

Great place to eat and you get your money worth. Thanks for being prompt on delivery also

I really loved the food everything was on point,best charcoal chicken and ribs ,amazing. for $17.00 they give you so much food that you can feed 3 people. read more

Not a good place to order online from. the customer service is horrible, they're rude and they refused to drive 8 minutes to deliver. They said they couldn't drive EIGHT minutes, but what makes it worse was I ordered there before, it was delivered and it wasn't a problem. They don't even mention on the website how far they can go. Ribs are salty anyways, don't recommend. read more

Plenty of food, edible, decent prices. Perfect for anyone hungry for quality food, locally read more

It's ok. It was, like ALL businesses when they first open, really good then they sold it. Businesses have ZERO CONSISTENCY. After they open within a couple of months staff and owners stop being friendly and inviting and service and products suffer. They lose interest in the customers. It's the majority. There's very very few exceptions. You just hope you luck out when you're the customer. I've had great food, mediocre food and bad food here at various. Just cross your fingers read more

It's Mother's Day and i wanted to treat myself to a decent meal. Called ahead and placed my order for shrimp with salmon steaks and garlic sauce. Called ahead several times to see if it was ready but was unable to get through. I showed up 45 minutes after placing my order and stood inside at the counter for 20 minutes while staff ignored myself and several other customers. There were several orders bagged and ready on the counter yet none of the staff communicated with the customers. After asking several women at the counter if my order was available i was looked through and ignored. In light of Covid 19 and there being about 8 customers waiting inside i stepped out and called again to confirm. I was hung up on after being placed on hold. read more

I went to Fogo based on reviews after strolling the nearby park. I am so happy I listened. We got the cheese empanadas, shrimp skewers and split the chorizo and rib platter. SO MUCH FOOD, seriously huge portions. The food is good, the staff is helpful the prices are a deal ($23 got us a full meal and lunch the next day). The restaurant and the bathrooms are clean and the private lot behind the restaurant is a bonus. read more

Small Lil spot. Ribs IMO are a too salted from my old spot but still good. I got the Dessert Flan, not the best not the worst, enjoyable tho And beef empanada. At $1 price tag you can't complain. But of course I will. They weren't fresh but the flour shell was a little to hard/crispy But all that plus 2 Inca cola's for $20. Good food cheap AF read more

Hands down the absolute driest chicken I have ever tasted. It LITERALLY disintegrated like the turkey in Christmas Vacation after I cut it open. What was left after that had such a strong smell & TASTE of something that resembled lighter fluid. It was so overbearing that the entire tray of food I had just purchased had to go in the garbage. Not the first time I have ordered with them, but it will be the last. Very upsetting. read more

Placed an order and received email confirmation. When I arrived to pick up, they said they never received my order. They were unapologetic AF. read more

This place is amazing!!!!! For those who gave a one start they are out of there minds !!!!!!! Sometimes is jealously what makes people write whatever that wanna write Trust me Good service Good food Fast Delivery What else can be great from this place I love it ! read more

I've had their food twice and both times it was delicious! I don't live in town which is why I've only had it those two times and maybe the food wasn't great for other folks but for me it was spot on. Definitely try the chicken, yellow rice and vegetables when you get the chance. Only down side is it is a bit pricey. read more

This place has had several different owners since Ive been in this area and thats only been about a year and a half. I only go here about once every month or so. I find it to be a bit expensive and forgettable to be honest. Although I do enjoy a few things here... The chicken salad is really good, the ingredients are always fresh, chicken well seasoned and its only $5 (the only thing cheap in this place. They also make great Paella with lots if seafood in it (even half a lobster) but this dish is $22 and its definitely hit or miss. It could be fresh and delicious or dry and nasty. So order it at your own risk. The chorzio can be pretty good too sometimes. They have all sorts or portugese dishes with fish, meats, and seafood. Ive tried most of it and sadly nothing really stood out. read more

My family orders from here often . There portions last for weeks . They give plantain , bbq chicken , yellow rice and fries and that'd make for several different meals . The rice is too much sometimes so we stopped ordering it but everything else is great & they have quick service read more

Justin's BBQ - This is what they deliver - Portuguese Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

Ordered through door dash. We ordered a WHOLE CHICKEN with fries and rice. The order arrived with a few pieces of chicken and I believe the rest was pork. Not sure how an error like this even happens when all it requires is simple elementary level reading comprehension. The order said Whole Chicken. The chef saw whole chicken and decided to throw in some pork? LOOOL. Absolutely ridiculous. I do not recommend ordering from this place, clearly reading and fulfilling orders properly is not their strength. read more

It's the best BBQ on the North Side of Newark, places up the street a couple blocks away are still good but not consistent. For $10 I fill my fat stomach up with chicken and ribs always friggin delicious, with some fries and rice. (Sometimes it comes out ries and frice because I get so excited) and throw in some tostones for $2 sprinkle some garlic powder on top and bam: you're welcome. read more

Absolutely love this place.. the empanadas are amazing and cooked to order. The Chicken is so flavourful and amazing. Consistency is the same each time I get food from here read more

Tried this restaurant tonight. Food was very fresh and tasty. Nice atmosphere. Clean place. Good pricing. Staff was pleasant. I will definitely be returning. read more

Great food! I had the mojarra fish.. delicious! Lots of rice and salad..the rice can use some seasonings, but overall great bbq.

Ok so I'm not really the writing reviews on restaurants kind of guy but this needs to be acknowledged. I didn't prepare in any way possible for this storm by choice. I had to order food and nobody was delivering except the usual crap like Chinese and dominos which I wouldn't want even if it wasn't snowing. Well 45 minutes later I call and they say that the driver got stuck and should be here shortly. 5 minutes later I get a call from the driver saying that they are almost here and are walking to my house. To my surprise I see a male and female carrying my food above their heads through the snow and up my stairs which hasn't been shoveled I might add. With smiles on their faces and very humble attitudes they climb up the stairs and hand me my food still HOT. It's a beautiful thing to see that dedication and hard work. They could have simply called and canceled or said no. On top of everything the food was fantastic. Now onto the food. We ordered the chicken and rib combo, Portuguese steak, beef ribs and hot wings. The wings were nicely done. Fresh chicken pieces with a homemade buffalo sauce with bay leaf. Not overly sauced or spicy, just right. The chicken was not dry and perfectly cooked. The pork ribs were a bit too charred for my taste but still well done. For those that liked their meat a little more well it was perfect. The rice was great and the fries were shoestring cut and very tasty. The Portuguese steak was prepared in a brown garlic sauce topped with ham and a fried egg. The steak was seasoned very well and the sauce was delicious especially mixed together with the rice like a garlicky gravy. Also served with Spanish style potatoes. But above all was the beef ribs. They were outstanding and juicy. Superbly seasoned and just the right amount of char. This alone was worth it. Everything was served with fries and yellow rice. Black beans served separate and were delicious. Also ordered maduros (fried sweet plantains) on the side which were perfectly cooked. First time impressions are everything and they earned my business. read more

This place has amazing food. Especially their grilled chicken, breaded chicken, and garlic chicken. The only bad this about this place is their parboiled rice. I always leave it to the side. But the main portion of the meal is the meat and is worth every penny. Its steaks can use some more seasoning but cooked well. read more

Ive been coming here for about a year now... There Resturant is very nice... Good food... Good chicken... Ribs for me are too well done (my opinion)..steaks are good but if your ordering a med well u might as well tell them med because they dont comprehend the levels of steaks and what degree to be cooked at.. No point in telling them how u like it... Lol but shrimp is good and fish... Rice they also serve good beans ..they always make them fresh. Good family business.. Just need to get more bi lengual speaking people to work there... Other than that,they have a good owner good food good vibe and BYOB TOO.. read more

I ordered food from here on Saturday night 5/30 and had a friend pick it up around 7pm. This was my first time ordering food from this restaurant but I was encouraged to do so after reading the reviews on yelp. My order was for a large seafood paella and large bbq pork ribs. When the food arrived it was very nicely package however as I opened the brown paper bag and pulled out the containers there was a long black hair wrapped around the individual condiments they provided such as bbq, hot sauce and a homemade sauce. The hair was locked in-between a bbq sauce container and the rest was wrapped up around the other small containers. Someone who works there has long black hair! Instantly I was hesitant on trying the food but I opened both containers and inspected them both properly. The food looked very appetizing and seemed to be okay but I just kept thinking about the long black hair that I first encountered. I asked my fried who picked up the food what he thought about the restaurant and he said that "it wasn't the best". That was base on his opinion because I have never seen the establishment myself. I then explained about the hair which leaded to him telling me that most of the food was pre made and kept in trays on the side (maybe this is how they operate on Saturday?). We thought about ordering something else to eat but decided to try the food since it seemed to be okay. The long black hair was only mixed in one of the bbq containers and around the others... we threw all of those out! The food looked very nice and actually tasted very good. However, I did not enjoy my meal because I kept thinking about the hair. If I did not find the hair would I order from this restaurant again? Yes, the food was good! Since I did find that long black hair will I ever order from this restaurant again? No, never! Kinda disappointing because they have a nice menu but I just can't get over the first experience. Just to mention I did not contact the restaurant about this issue. Sorry Fogo! I'm only giving you 3 starts. This could have been a one time mistake but I'm not interested in chancing it again. Since the food was delicious I will be fair with 3. read more

This is place is pretty good. Their delivery service is always on time and food is hot. It's pretty much your typical Churrasqueria food. I like that the chicken and ribs aren't overbearingly Salty. The fries were always crispy the last few times we ordered delivery which isn't easy to do. They almost always get soggy in the trays. I didn't care for the salmon though, it was a square piece of salmon in a butter sauce and that's it, no seasoning, and their beans can use some help, maybe some garlic and some cilantro. read more

I popped into this place by chance today while I was waiting for my bus and ordered some steak after getting a recommendation from the staff. It is a smaller restaurant so it may get packed at busier times but they also deliver and offer takeout. The food was delicious and the portions were quite large. I will likely be back here or ordering delivery from here in the near future. read more

Good food, good variety and the prices aren't bad, delivery service is excellent and food always arrives hot and ready to eat.

Yet another barbecue joint in Newark. This one is good though. If you tried a couple of them then you can somewhat differentiate between those that are mediocre and a little bit above the norm. The fish in garlic sauce was delicious. Recommended for anyone who wants to take a dip in the sea for dinner. Go for it. read more

Horrible place... Looks good but not...the pics of the food looks great but don't let it fool you!!

The food taste really good and was affordable. I had the garlic shrimp delivered to my hotel it was quick. I also like the portion size too.

Staff is very rude if your are not Spanish. My order was 37 dollars they charged my card 47 dollars! When I called they said they didn't know who I was 2 minutes after I left(and no it was not busy). That's terrible business and the food was mediocre read more
