I rented the large hall for my daughter's Sweet 16 and paid the full fee upfront after viewing the space. Before my event, the owner, David, made several promises about what was included, but later tried to charge me extra for many of those same things--claiming he had bills to pay and even showing me his water bill. Because the hall is quite large, I needed additional time to decorate and make the event special, but even that became an issue. During the event itself, we repeatedly had to ask staff for basic supplies like toilet tissue and working light bulbs in the restroom--things that should have been checked and stocked beforehand. Overall, the space is beautiful and spacious, but the management and organization left a lot to be desired. read more

I came here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon of holiday shopping. This dive bar had surprisingly delicious shrimp soup. At a cost of $2.95, it was plentiful with small shrimp. Plus the broth was thick, probably due to the infusion of carrots, green peas and all the seasonings. I ate the soup with a Portuguese roll, which brought out the flavor the soup. The pint of Stella Artois, at a cost of $4.50, also enhanced the soup's flavor. The patrons were enjoying their food, especially the empanadas. So I ordered one (beef), which was tasty and fresh. My lunch was $10.33, which I paid in cash because credit card users are charged a convenience fee of 3.99% (see a photo of the note that I posted. If ever again I am in the neighborhood, I will certainly visit Nuno's. read more

Absolutely recommend Nuno's! They never serve any bad food, food is always tasty & good, big portions & good service. I love their papaya - Shrimp, Mussels, Clams & Rice. Their Fried Potatoes are gr8. Nuno's is a hidden gem! Unfortunately, I'm presently in a wheelchair, so I can't go there anymore. read more

Came for a early dinner. Tried the ziti with sausage this visit. And it was pretty good. But if you looking to stay away from greasy foods. This is not for you. The taste if the sausage was good as was the pasta as well. This place is really good place to sit and just enjoy sports and a meal. Sunday during football season it is much louder and crowded. Especially when 49ers is playing. But today relaxed and easy going. Just what I needed. Whether coming to the restaurant or sitting at the bar. It is a good place for a hangout. Staff and owner are really nice and try to give you reason to return. They got me. read more

Nuno's Pavilion - Broiled flounder with shrimp. Veggies and homemade chips - Bars Near Me - Linden, New Jersey

CONS 1. Busy afternoon/evening on a week day night with only ONE Staff Member, Danielle (Bartender/Server) working the floor. After my table complained about the delay of service to the owner and expressed his Staff Member needs a Helping Hand or he needs to call for back up. Ultimately, he stepped up to Help with orders for the remainder of the night. In the words of John Maxwell, "Teamwork makes the Dream work." 2. Beef Ribs was Cooked Well but needs more Flavor. 3. Male Restroom sink needs to be replaced COMPLETELY, the Faucet is Full of Hazardous Corrosive substances. Shockingly, the Female Restroom is Up To Date. Very Unacceptable. PROS 1. Bartender/Server Danielle remained Professional and Friendly. She is a keeper! 2. Chicken Empanadas are SUPER Flavorful and Juicy. Marinara Sauce does Not go with Empanadas. Marinara needs to be Accompanied with Mozzarella Sticks or Pasta. Housemade Garlic & Parsley sauce would be much Better. 3. Strong Red Sangria. 4. Ground Beef Empanada are Tasty. 5. Fresh Chopped Garlic Broccoli and Carrots was Delicious. 6. Huge Outdoor Seating. 7. Reasonable prices. . read more

Nuno's Pavilion - Freshed Chopped Garlic Veggies was the Star of the Dish. The Beef Ribs needed more Flavor. - Bars Near Me - Linden, New Jersey

If you ever consider renting their dining space behind the restaurant, "STAY AWAY." It was highly disrespectful to be "kicked out" before the time allotted by a contract. Only to have a responsible staff member confirm that you were "kicked out" before your allotted contract timeframe. The staff provided an incorrect contract as a basis for their claim and wouldn't allow the party to resume after clearing the mishap. "Y'all" stay away from this place. The experience felt racist and was unprovoked. Some of the staff management team's behavior was aggressive and unprofessional. Also, putting your hands in someone's face is highly disrespectful because you were found wrong in a civilized conversation. The party was beautiful without incident, but the staff tried to create one without reason. A third party catered for the party, and the food was delicious! read more

This place is very very good and I am often not that complimentary of places in Linden. I came here for dinner with people from work. I had the beef stroganoff which my wife used to make but now claims is too fattening. I love noodles and beef so it was a natural choice. Everyone liked their meals and we all went back to hotel happy. read more

I bought a restaurant.com certificate for Nuno's and decided to give it a try on a Wednesday night. Little did I not know, the restaurant is only open on weekends, so we had to eat in the bar. No one else was eating, so I should've taken that as a warning sign. Our waitress was very friendly and it looked like a very diverse crowd. A lot of people go there to play pool or have a drink. My boyfriend ordered the T-bone steak and thought it wasn't too bad- but I ordered the prime rib and found it to be very gamey and fatty. It was almost like it was old and they tried to mask the left-over flavor by piling on parsley and a tangy sauce. Both dishes came with yellow rice and spanish potatoes, which were average. I wouldn't mind coming back here for a drink, but I'll pass on the food. read more

Best happy hour in Linden. Free (really good) Portuguese/Spanish food from 4pm-7pm and dollar drafts. If that's not enough reason to stop by, the actual menu is scrumptious. I had a seafood in garlic sauce over rice and I nearly went out to buy a time machine so I could rewind and eat it again. Seriously. I couldn't find one in the area though. There's a downstairs area with some nice pool tables and an additional full bar and bathrooms. The bottom floor is used on the weekend as DClub, and it gets pretty poppin' down there. I have never attended the club before, but it's mostly a mix of hip hop and dance music based on what I've heard. Oh and if you go during a 49ers game, the owner Nuno will give you a free drink every touchdown they make. read more

This place is a football fan's dream! The decor is awesome and the enthusiasm of the people there is contagious! The staff is friendly enough but the food isn't good at all! We ordered the Buffalo Wings, chicken wings and french fries. The french fries had no flavor. I definitely wouldn't eat there again. I was given a flat soda...the bottle said April 2018...it's October . I bought the bottle back and apparently they didn't have anymore diet coke so they bought me a can of diet coke. The drink that I asked them to mix one they never heard of and wanted me to tell them how to mix it and the other one they said they knew how to make it but it wasn't good. That said, if I wanted to just hang out and watch multiple games on multiple screens I'd definitely go back there but I would eat before I go. read more

The service was very slow. Took an extremely long time to get the food that was ordered. I ordered chicken marsala it came with potato chips and yellow rice. It was horrible the only thing that was edible was the potato chips. The food tasted like it was old. I would never return to this spot. read more

Best happy hour in the area. Diverse crowd and depending on whats going on sports wise, you maybe in for a surprise. I love the garlic shrimp. Everything else can be hit or miss sometimes. Bartenders make good drinks and it has that good real bar feel ya know? read more

We just celebrated a graduation party for two girls and we had a total of 70 people. The food was fabulous and the service was exceptional. The place was spacious and clean. Overall we had an amazing time. Thank you so much! read more

The liquor is strong, but that's pretty much the only good thing about it. Service wasn't so great, the food was blend and definitely not my type of music. I guess I'll come back when I'm ready to get drunk. read more

This bar is trash!!!!!!.They are always running out of draught beer not to mention the beer is flat a lot of the time (...this is why they give you cold mugs; to disguise the fact that the actual beer is warm ). They try to make insist that you pay after each drink however if they "allow you" to open a tab they will hold your ID and credit-card.... The location is great and could have had a better review if they ran the bar properly..... They do carry many Portuguese dishes however sometimes the food is good other times the food is bland and undercooked... overall this place is mediocre. read more

It has come to my attention that this restaurant has a problem with people of color. They will only treat their own kind with great service. I don't take kindly to such behavior. Money is green no matter who gives it to you. They will no longer get my business in life. They also don't give you the drink you ask for. Trying to pass cheap vodka for the good brands. It's 2015 this behavior should not be tolerated. read more

Food is delicious. Prices are reasonable. Had a nice time at the bar with my boyfriend. The crowd was nice, not too loud. Would definitely return again. read more

THE MOST DISGUSTING BURGERS EVER! I go here during football season and the food is almost always below average. I usually order the half ribs with fries and rice, sometimes it tastes fine sometimes it tastes like a container of salt. I decided to try a cheeseburger there and when I bit into it, it was cold. The cheese was old, there was more bun than meat, the meat looked like something out of a fisher price play set. It was covered in onions, tomatoes, and what looked like salad from a bag. A friend of mine tried their buffalo wings and went home with the worst diarrhea. Nuno needs to get a new cook or start serving fresh food. read more

a typical local bar, small, somewhat dirty, cheap drinks.

Good mixed/strong drinks and thats about it.... Spare yourself and DO NOT eat here. I had the yellow rice with chicken and french fries. The chicken was very bland. I thought the rice was Portuguese rice, but it turns out that it taste like plain white rice, only difference is the color is yellow. The food was lukewarm and tasted like it had been sitting for hours. I was starving and i could only eat the chicken. The fries definitely weren't fresh whatsoever. I mean seriously, how could anyone mess up on fries? The atmosphere is pretty chilled. Decent music. I would go again for the drinks and music, but will NEVER eat there again. read more

Oh, God! Where to start? Food? It's greasy and tasteless. Service? It' was so slow, i wanted to die! They make you feel like you are the most unimportant person in the world. Probably worst experience ever... read more
