This place left a fantastic impression. I want to start with the service because it was top-notch. You can be sure that if you have any concerns about a dish, they will replace it without any issues. Even when the restaurant is busy, you won’t have to search for a server. The staff is very friendly and attentive to guests’ needs. The dishes are delicious, and the portions are great. If I’m ever in New Jersey again, I’ll definitely stop by for an excellent steak.

This was amazing from the start of my phone call to make reservations with Emilio. The skirt steak was outstanding & my friend enjoyed his ribeye. Service was extremely awesome & a one-time courtesy was approved for my dog( caged) to join our special dinner festivities. Thanks for all U did for us. Dayton Rocks 🪨 🎸

They offer the best service at all times no matter if you’re a regular or just visiting! They have a bar section and restaurant section, they also have added a take out section!

Amazing steaks & food! This is our 2nd fav Portuguese spot now but our 1st pick for steaks! You will not be disappointed. We took our kids and they loved the food & atmosphere although they were skeptical about going in due to the area is definitely worth trying! The octopus is our 2nd fav along with the espresso shots and a touch of Bailey’s to bring that food down! Lastly the sangria is on point not too sweet and perfect pairing with the steak! The staff are attentive and friendly! You’re always greeted with a smile !
