BEST Portuguese Restaurant I have ever eaten at!! Classic ambience, very clean and efficient!…read more Food-AMAZING! I ordered the MIXED SEAFOOD IN A COPPER POT, and enjoyed EVERY SINGLE BITE! Full of Shrimp, Clams, Muscles, Calamari, 1/2 lobster in an AMAZING broth filled with vegetables and served with Rice! Just OUTSTANDING!! A mixed salad is served first, more oil than vinegar and was DELICIOUS!! Service- Well... EVERYONE I came in contact with was extremely friendly and helpful. I had more than 1 server for my table and found that the "left hand didn't talk to the right hand". When I got a server, they were AWESOME! But as a single diner, I kept having to call someone over for everything-To order, to get a drink refill, to get my check... I was treated like a single diner! The food, and atmosphere and menu are OUTSTANDING!! I WILL definitely will go back and try something else because my meal was GREAT and the menu looked fabulous! GREAT experience...except for service.

We started with some olives and bread, which came out warm, but was hard because it was almost burnt. It was still tasty once I spread some butter on it. I ordered the octopus a lagareiro.

My guy got the salmon steak cut. It was cooked perfectly. Overall it was good meal and great service. I can't wait to go back for the octopus!

I am writing to formally express my dissatisfaction with the level of service I have received. My…read moreconcerns involve not only poor customer service, but also what I perceive to be biased and unequal treatment toward African American individuals. During my interactions, I experienced unprofessional behavior, lack of respect, and inadequate support from staff. Communication was dismissive, and my concerns were not handled with the attention or seriousness they deserved. This alone is troubling, but what raises greater concern is the pattern of treatment that appears to disproportionately affect Black customers. It has become increasingly difficult to ignore the differences in how individuals are treated. There seems to be a noticeable lack of courtesy, patience, and fairness extended toward African American customers compared to others. Whether intentional or not, this kind of behavior contributes to an environment that feels discriminatory and unwelcoming. Customer service should be grounded in respect, equality, and professionalism for all individuals, regardless of race or background. The experience I had does not reflect those values, and it is unacceptable. I am requesting that this matter be taken seriously and reviewed thoroughly. This should include evaluating staff conduct, providing additional training if necessary, and ensuring that all customers are treated fairly and without bias moving forward. I hope to see meaningful steps taken to address these concerns. Gostaria de expressar a minha insatisfação com a experiência que tive no Algarve, a qual considerei tendenciosa e marcada por um atendimento ao cliente pouco profissional. Durante a minha visita, senti-me mal tratado, especialmente pelo funcionário José. A sua postura e atitude demonstraram, de forma consistente, um ar de desprezo ao lidar com clientes negros. Essa conduta foi desconfortável e inaceitável. Além disso, observei uma diferença clara no tratamento quando clientes portugueses brancos ou outras pessoas brancas entravam no estabelecimento. Nesses momentos, o ambiente mudava visivelmente, tornando-se mais acolhedor e respeitoso. Esse contraste no comportamento evidencia um tratamento desigual. Essa situação transmite um forte tom de discriminação racial e um padrão seletivo na forma como a equipe atende clientes negros. Esse tipo de atitude não deve ser tolerado em nenhum ambiente de atendimento ao público. Espero que esta questão seja levada a sério e devidamente investigada, com medidas tomadas para garantir um tratamento justo, respeitoso e igualitário para todos os clientes. Atenciosamente,

This was one of our go to places to dine at a few years ago, but honestly the service had declined and we stopped going. I heard it was redone inside and the food had improved so we gave it a try.

They now have a small upstairs room for private events too. We ordered: -chouriço -Chanfana de cabrito -bitoque -chocolate mousse -tiramisu -espresso -brandy They have limited on site parking and some street parking.

We sat at the bar and were greeted right away by the bartender. There were so many options on the menu in addition to the specials that it made it difficult to make a decision but we opted for the vegetable soup, a garden salad and a pork loin, shrimp & sausage combo and of course, the obligatory pitcher of sangria. Everything was delicious. The soup instantly made you feel like somebody's grandma slow cooked it for hours. The simple garden salad was dressed perfectly. The complimentary bread was tasty as only Portuguese rolls seem to be. The pork was full of flavor as was the shrimp. It's served on a bed of fries that soaked up all of the meat juices nicely. There was a little smattering of pickled vegetables on top. We leisurely enjoyed our meal, finishing our sangria pitcher and topping off the whole experience with some type of potent appertif. Great meal, great prices, great ambiance.

We sat at the bar and the lady tenders were nice and attentive early on. The ambiance and decor is classy and traditional Iberian. Super Bock on tap is always a plus especially when ice cold like it was served. A Paella and a Monkfish dishes were ordered. And took no less than an hour to come out. Since we ordered no appetizers, it was and felt like forever. The major disappointment was no tender checking on us. Had I been asked if I wanted another Super Bock at anytime in the last half hour of waiting, I would have been able to ask that they check on my food. Not that I should remind anyone how to do their jobs. Then the minor disappointment. For all that wait, all the customers rolling in, all the nice atmosphere, the food was just good but not great. The best outcome was lots of leftovers for entrees priced on the higher side for Portuguese food.

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.
