I stopped in for the first time. My picadinho was excellent. My buddy also really enjoyed his meal. Great food, extra friendly staff, and nice portions. Well be back.

Bring 2 ppl because its a lot of food. I paid under 40 bucks for the steak and shrimp platter and it was enough for lunch and dinner. I didnt expect that much food and for it to be that delicious. The food came out in a tray with a mountain of rice, another of homemade fries, huge shrimps and a pretty big steak. Loved every bite

The only thing better than the original is there isnt a crazy wait time lol but everything is amazing as usual. Better than any other place in the area.

I saw there was new management and I had already tried their Elizabeth location. Was content with my meal, got the salmon with potatos and vegetables. Will be coming back

Really love their seafood menu!! Me and my dad went to go try their Shrimp Jumbo with head and Salmon and it was really great. Definitely worth going back.

I was there yesterday and i get the combo platter appetizer it was good i recommend it and the guy at the register hes so nice

Welcoming staff. The portion sizes were humongous! The food quality was appropriate for the price you pay.

This is pretty much a walkin but the food was excellent last time. When weve had the pork cubes they were dry. The shrimp appetizer is tasty but not worth the money. I know shrimp isnt cheap, but seems overpriced. THe 25 steak is right ...
