We ordered the family combo for takeout, and it was delicious! There was enough food for 4 people, and it was piping hot.

I decided to get some Portuguese BBQ. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I called in the order of the half chicken and steak. When I walked in, I was greeted. My food was ready and I paid. When I dug in, I enjoyed the platter. It was very good and flavorful. All in all I had a good experience. read more

Hole in the wall bbq place with 4 tables inside. Staff was friendly and portions are Huge!!! Got the picanha with fries and broccoli and I only finished half. This was 3 pieces of steak and enough food for 2. Steak was flavorful and tender and the strip of fat on the picanha is excellent. No frills but an excellent meal. read more

The place is tiny so it is more for take ou, but do try because i will be back. This is obe of the best i have ever gad. read more

I can understand the price increase but decrease of the food quality is unacceptable. Instead of a platter of ribs rice and beans we received an order of gristle, bones rice and beans. After expressing the quality of food we received there was no resolve, after years of patronage, very disappointing to say the least! read more

I have been a customer from here from a long time already and this place never disappoints me! The food and the service here it's amazing! read more

The first time I went to this place the food was good but my second and third visit the service and food were not so nice. First off, they tell the customer over the phone one price but wait till you get there to charge some sort of extra tax or service fee. When I tried to politely let the young lady at the counter (who i can only guess is family of some sort to the the owner) know that they should make that clear to the customer up front. I was given rolled eyes and minimal response. My third visit was worse. When I received my food, brought it home, and tasted it the vegetables tasted tangy as if they were sour and they tried to cover it up by cooking them the with vinegar. When I called and complained. I believe I spoke with the owner who made the excuse that the chef was new and admitted that she may have cooked the veggies in vinegar. I asked if I could have at least half of my money back since I couldn't eat half my meal, she agreed but acted as if she couldn't find my card in the system. I ended up getting 5 funky a$$ dollars back from my 50 some odd dollar meal. I'm not usually the type to write reviews and honestly love supporting small minority owned buisness but at this point I'LL NEVER PATRONIZE THIS PLACE AGAIN AND NIETHER SHOULD ANYONE ELSE. read more

Excellent food. Been going there for years. It has gone up and down thru out the years, however, lately it has been going up. Thank you guys and gals for all you do. read more

You can smell the deliciousness in the air in front of this place. No frills kinda place where many locals visit and get takeout. We got a rack of pork ribs and a whole chicken with rice and fries. I would recommend getting the rice with beans because it tasted much better with the beans poured over the rice. read more

A diamond in the rough hole in the wall. Came here for dinner before a flight. Honestly i didnt expect the place to impress me but it did. The place works mostly for takeout even without the COVID restrictions but they have 3 tables to sit people at it works. The do great meats and even though meat is fatty it is not greasy Can't give it 5 stars because it needs a little sprucing up but as a stop for food i think it is wonderful. read more

I love Portuguese food, this Restaurant is another of my favorites. Love the bbq chicken and ribs!!! Soup and salad are delicious

Been coming here for years and never left a review. Honestly the best Portuguese BBQ spot in Union county, actually I ever had. I usually get the chicken or ribs with rice, shrimp and pork picadinho (my favorite). However today Danny recommended the shrimp tacos and steak sandwich cause I was really hungry. All I have to say it's amazing (see pics). Of course I got sold on dessert. The pudding was also delicious. I will continue to come back to this read more

Service was wonderful! You get a lot of food for the price. The ribs were a little dry but overall, tasty. I would definitely eat here again. read more

Been to this huddle gem a couple of times, food is always consistent. You can smell the bbq from down the street. If the smell doesn't make you salivate and jump with joy inside, then you're lying. We've had the chicken, beef ribs, pork ribs, and pork cubes. All is served with rice and fries. I found that no matter how many times different Portuguese bbq locations I've been to, the fries are always soggy. Most likely due to the fact they always cover everything in foil so they end up steamed instead. Easy fix is to just throw them into my air fryer. A little more work for takeout, but it's worth it. As with all Portuguese bbq, portions are huge and can easily feed 3-4 people. We've had lots of rice and fries left over, which served as sides for the next couple of dinners. read more

The space is small, but this is more of a takeout place. The portions are large and therefore you don't need to make many orders and the food is great. Everything is ready when they tell you it will be. you don't have to wait for your order for too long. I definitely recommend as a quick solution if you don't feel like cooking. read more

Was in the mood for some good BBQ and decided to give Long Avenue BBQ a go and glad we did. The place is small with a few tables, the smell was good so we ordered a small portion BBQ ribs and an order of House special Pinchado. Portions are huge. A little too much rice for my liking but you definitely get your money's worth. The fries are as fresh as you can get, cut before your eyes. The flavour of both dishes were very good and we left totally satisfied. We will definitely be back. Worth noting that the place operates on a cash only basis. read more

Well, it is one of these small places, hidden but that offer great service. I arrived almost at the end of the day and the person in charge of the place gave me his suggestions, and they were right. The chicken was juicy and crunchy, if you are looking for industrial potatoes, this is not your place, because these potatoes are saucepans seasoned with sea salt and fried at a low temperature. The touch of saffron and achiote in the rice is appreciated. In general, it is a place to buy food from all over the house because the service brings a lot of meat, rice and potatoes. I recommend going hungry or take a whole bunch of friends. read more

I'm always looking for good Portuguese BBQ and I happened to stumble across this place on my way home from the city. Im so glad we stopped to give it a try. Let me start by saying it may not look like much from the outside and seating may be limited but please don't let that stop you from giving this place a try. We were lucky to wait just a few minutes for a table but it seemed like they have a lot of regulars who call in for take out orders. The owner Danny and all the staff were super friendly and Very personable which made the experience even better. I love when restaurants make you feel welcome and especially when you leave you feel like they have become a family friend. There was a woman who helped us Im not sure if she was the owners mom but she was awesome super friendly and had me and my family smiling from ear to ear such a great personality. Now on to the food!! The was pork piccadhino with shrimp was delicious full of flavor and that sauce over the rice . We also ordered the BBQ chicken and the chicken was cooked perfectly full of flavor and not dry at all and The beans were delicious my girls loved them. Prices are definitely reasonable and they have a few extra items like tacos and soup( seasonal ) . So if you are in the area call in a order or take a chance they may have a seat available either way I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. read more

Great food and service. One of the best Portuguese restaurants I will order take out from. Definitely recommend it.

On my way back home from Newark Airport, we decided to stop by this little local spot for Portuguese BBQ. Mostly a takeout restaurant, the restaurant offers four small tables for dine in. We decided to sit down and enjoy our meal there rather than taking it to go. The tables offer all the condiments you might want (hot sauce, ketchup, etc). I love the sour/vinegar-y Portuguese hot sauce. It's my favorite to put on everything! We ordered the full order of beef short ribs (four ribs, rice, and beans) ($18), a NY strip steak with rice and beans ($13), and a half order of pork ribs with rice and beans (I think $8-$10ish?). The owner, Danny, was very kind to offer us some fries to munch on while we were waiting. The food came promptly and piping hot and cooked to perfection. Danny asked how we liked the steak cooked to which we said medium rare. The strip steak was perfectly medium rare; we loved this! For the amount of meat/food you get and the pricing, you just can't beat it! This is a cash only business so definitely come prepared! There are a good deal of Portuguese places in the nearby area/towns but this is definitely now added permanently to my list of favorites! I'll definitely be coming back to order takeout in the future! read more

Really great Churrasqueira! Family owned and managed. I have not eaten in, I usually do take out, but they do offer lots of space if you want to eat in. I usually get the tray with yellow rice, fries, chicken and ribs for less than $20 bucks. It can feed between 2-3 people per tray. Pork cubes are also delicious. Staff is always nice and my food is always ready when I call ahead of time, which is a great time saver. Beware they only take cash so come prepare! read more

I can't say enough about this place. Little cozzy restaurant served by the owners super friendly. The food was incredible, they offer me a sample of the "Special of the day" which was beef stew with veggies and mushed potatoes...home made with REAL potatoes! He didn't even want me to pay for it. Later Daniel, the owner gave me a sampler of delicious beans. I was going to that restaurant for short ribs, which I got with chimichurri. Very very good! Overall a GREAT home cooking experience and felt like I was family. Don't expect a fancy place, this is a perfect comfort food place. Great great place! Thanks Daniel and Fernando! read more

This is a small restaurant. Not much going on outside that you may even drive past it and not even realize it exist. But this is some of the best Portuguese BBQ in the area. Everything is always fresh and made to order. The pork cubes (Picadinho) are amazing! Their chick and rib combo is always tasty and juicy. Most of their dishes come with rice and fries or rice and beans. read more

You can smell the food a block away. I don't know how anyone lives near this place and doesn't indulge daily. I don't recall seeing the seating. I usually do to go with most places though. Ordered a full order of ribs and half order of chicken cubes. The fries are to die for. Perfect combination of crispy small fries and mush natural texture. So good. The ribs were delicious. The chicken cubes were not what I'm used to. Normally they're in a creamy-ish yellow/orange sauce. These were in a garlic sauce but damn was it good. Very fast and friendly service too. Will be back! read more

My partner loves this place. We have ordered take out from here about three times. The food quantity of food and the price can't be beat! If you're craving great Portuguese BBQ with no frills and have a big appetite. This place is it! read more

I am so glad I backtracked off the GSP to get here. Not the easiest place to find, but you could tell the locals knew all about it. Lots of meat grilling and they were the nicest people that have taken care of me in awhile. Thanked me for coming, said it was nice to meet me, told me to come back, etc. the food: I ordered the roasted pork bites with fries and beans. Incredible. It was a little challenging to drive and eat, but I'm a pro. I actually ate it twice over the 2 hrs to home. I'd really like to go back and try the ribs...obviously, I couldn't eat them while driving. Without making a pile of a mess, that is. Stop in if you are local and if you're not get off the Parkway, you won't be disappointed. read more

Staying in Newark for a work trip and hopped on Yelp, as I often to do, to find a place for lunch. This place popped up on the first page and the pictures are what sold it for me. Only a 10 minute drive away from my hotel, It was a simple drive. They don't have a dedicated parking lot but there is a side street that makes getting in and out relatively simple. As soon as I got out of my car I was able to smell the meat from outside. It was DIVINE! I tried their 1/2 Chicken and 1/2 Pork Ribs combo and it was a TON of food for the price! Everything was hot and delicious! I do wish they offered some sort of sauce for the rice though. It can be a starchy meal after about halfway through. They only take cash!!! If they accepted cards I'd give this place 5 stars! read more

We were stopping at a hotel in Elizabeth and searched Yelp for some place local. We found Long Ave BBQ, which got great reviews. Those reviews are well-deserved. The food is amazing! I had the pork cubes and my wife for the BBQ chicken and ribs combo. Both were great, although the pork cubes have a flavor to die for. Will make a point of stopping in again when we're in the area. read more

Another stop during my day. You might just drive past this place and think nothing of it, but its well worth stopping in. Its small, only 4 tables and a 10 seat counter, but what they do have is a damn good food. Portuguese style grilled chicken and ribs. Its fresh, tasty, not salty, served w/ homemade fries or red beans and rice...always piled on high too. theres also some fish, steaks and several pork dishes to try. If you're hungry, or if you're not, take it home....its cheap and great! read more
