During our trip back from New York City, we stopped for lunch at Taste of Portugal in Newark. The food was good—I had skirt steak—but the service was a bit slow, which I suspect was due to the time we arrived, around 2:00 PM. Overall, the food is definitely worth trying, and the atmosphere is pleasant for a local eatery. The prices are reasonable, totaling $150 for five people. There's a nice selection on the menu as well. While the experience was good, it wasn't exceptional, but I would recommend giving it a try.
The food at this restaurant was incredible. I ordered the filet on a stone, which allowed me to cook my steak just the way I like it and enjoy it right off the heat. The dessert was delightful, and the sangria was fantastic! I would definitely recommend this place! Food: 5/5
The Rice with Duck had a small amount of duck initially, but when we requested more, they happily provided it. It was really tasty! Additionally, the bacalao special of the day was delicious. The service was excellent and friendly, and the restaurant was clean. Food: 5/5.
