For a friend's family event, I was fortunate to visit this gem of a catering location. The venue is…read moremassive and can hold parties small or big. With a full liquor bar in the hallway, its a great pitstop during an event or pre-event. The staff that night was attentive, friendly and courteous. The catered food was Indo-Chinese appetizers and an Indian full-course menu, which I believe was from on premises. With plenty of parking space outside with valet service, this place has a lot to offer. The venue has a European style architecture and a lawn that too can offer space, however I was here on a cold frigid evening so did not get to experience that place.

I really miss Portuguese BBQ in NJ from when I used to work in Newark, but rarely come out this way…read moremuch anymore. BBQ joints dotted the landscape in the Ironbound neighborhood. But I found Long Ave BBQ on a Yelp search and on a trip back on I-78, I took a detour through Hillside to pick up dinner. The place reminds me of all the hole-in-the-wall places in the Ironbound with stainless steel covering everything, a brick pit charcoal grill and a giant ventilation hood sucking all the smoke up through the chimney and the whole neighborhood smells like BBQ. One innovation I see is that they use a motorized grill basket system that's constantly turning a bunch of grill baskets with chicken & ribs sandwiched in them. After perusing the menu, I order the Parrillada Portuguesa, a huge family meal for 6 people, that'll last my little family of 3 for 3 days. The PP comes with grilled chicken breast, a half chicken, pork ribs & cross sliced beef short ribs (Korean LA Kalbi style). The slices of chicken breast are too dry and with not a lot of flavor, but the pork ribs have that Ironbound Portuguese charcoal flavor I miss so much (even though a few ribs were a little tough to chew). The BBQ half chicken is alright, but not as much flavor as Peruvian rotisserie style and the short ribs are not as good as Korean style. I think they should do whole beef ribs Southern style, low and slow or even a whole beef brisket would be great. The Parrillada comes with 2 side dishes that are not shy by any means. You get an aluminum tray filled with 1/2 french fries and 1/2 rice that will be enough for 3 meals also! Next time, I would come back just for a full rack of the pork ribs, but I hope that the pitmaster doesn't overcook it.

Not sure how I found out about this to begin with, think my dad came across it at some point and…read morestarted going, but it's a really awesome place for an affordable and tasty meal. Food is great - delicious chicken and ribs, and this time we tried the salmon, which was also very well prepared (albeit not as bountiful as the chicken and ribs), and the sides are great too. By default, the sides are usually rice or fries, but we ordered vegetables the last time, and it was also really good. They also offered and served a garlic sauce to go with the meal, which was really tasty - an oil-based sauce with minced garlic in it. Always a wonderful meal, and I tell people about it anytime I hear they're from around the area!

I ordered the picadinho with chicken, shrimp, chorizo, pickled carrots & cauliflower, roasted potatoes and black olives. This was my first time ordering it and it was by far, a great decision. The entree was served in a deep plate because the portion of food is a decent size. The amount of sauce that came in the entree, almost came up to the rim of the deep plate. The small chunks of chicken were perfectly cooked. The shrimp tasted like it was plucked from the ocean today. The roasted potatoes and the white wine based sauce took the dish to the next level. This dish was clearly 5 stars! Im so happy that I stepped out of my comfort zone. I will definitely return to try other items on the menu.
