The open kitchen is fun to watch while you eat. I got the picayune steak medium rare and it was spot on. A bit pricey for the portion, but the quality was there.

Valentina served us, she&rsquo;s new but really friendly. Always smiling and checking in without being over the top. Made the dinner feel relaxed.

Cozy spot, solid Brazilian food. The music was great. The caipirinhas are the real star here, perfectly balanced and really complemented the grilled meats. A bit pricey for the portion sizes, but the vibe was on point.

Been coming here for years. The filet mignon is always cooked just right, never had a bad one. That&#39;s why I keep coming back.

Came in late just for dessert. The cr&egrave;me br&ucirc;l&eacute;e with berries was spot-on, perfect texture. Coffee was fresh, not bitter at all. A nice, quiet way to end the night.

The wings were a solid choice. They had a nice crisp and the seasoning was just right. Everything came out hot, which was good. Portions are a bit on the smaller side, though.

The onion rings were a nice upgrade for just $2. You could tell they were homemade, the batter was light and the onions were really fresh. A good, simple choice for a quick airport meal.

The coxinha de frango com queijo catupiry is my go-to for sharing with friends. So good!

The paella is a must-try here. The rice had a really nice flavor and was packed with fresh seafood. The chorizo was some of the best I&#39;ve had around here, too. Perfect for a group to share a few dishes.

Stopped by on a whim and got the chicken with rice and veggies. Really appreciated how fresh the vegetables tasted &ndash; crisp and vibrant. The chicken was simple but well-seasoned. A solid, healthy option that left me feeling good.

The salad bar is a solid addition. The feijoada and hearts of palm were fresh and authentic, a nice break from all the meat. Really rounds out the rodizio vibe.

Great spot for a casual dinner. The garlic shrimp was fantastic, and I found a Portuguese white wine that paired beautifully with it. Gets pretty loud when it&#39;s full, but that&#39;s part of the charm. Solid food.

Found this spot tucked away in Newark. The portions are huge, they had to bring out an extra table just for all the food! Everything was cooked just right. A solid find.

Business trip find. Anthony steered me to the swordfish. It was a massive piece, super fresh. Shared a bottle of wine with a colleague, two fish dinners for $109. Solid spot in Newark.

The sirloin with the fried egg on top was just right for lunch. That runny yolk mixing with the steak juices... so good. A quick espresso to finish. Simple and satisfying.

The red sangria was perfect for a quick bite. They made it stronger when I asked. White was good too. Got my order in under 10 minutes. Solid spot for a fast lunch.

Been coming here for years. The vibe is cozy, like stepping back in time. Food&rsquo;s always solid, but the service is what keeps me coming back. Staff just gets it right.

The passion fruit sangria was a nice touch on a warm evening. Refreshing, not too sweet. Good spot for a quick drink and a couple of tapas after work. Service was prompt.

Convenient spot across from the Prudential Center. Grabbed a quick burger and a beer before the game. The burger was decent, but honestly, for $22, I expected a bit more than just fries on the side. The portion felt a little light.

The spot&#39;s right in the arts district, super close to Newark Penn. Grabbed a quick lunch before my train. The whole place has this cool, industrial vibe with high ceilings and exposed brick. It&#39;s a nice change of pace from the usual station rush.

The food&#39;s the real star here. Got the classic burger and it was juicy, cooked just right. The dining room&#39;s clean and comfy, but yeah, the pickup spot and restrooms are looking a bit tired. Still, solid meal.

The seafood pasta was so fresh, and the portion was perfect for sharing.

The pastel de queijo was so good, flaky and cheesy. Fries were solid, too. Staff was nice, place felt clean. Just a simple, pleasant lunch.

This place is open 24 hours, which is so nice when you&#39;re out late. The staff was still really friendly when we came in around 2 AM, which was a nice surprise. The whole vibe just feels calm at that hour.

Been coming here for years. The parking lot is the main reason I keep coming back. In this part of town, knowing I can just pull in and not circle the block is a huge relief. Makes it easy to pop in for a quick bite.

The shrimp teriyaki in the bento was cooked just right, really fresh. Perfect for the patio on a sunny day.

Been coming here for years, and the chicken fajitas are always on point.

The stuffed rock crab appetizer was delicious. The booths are comfortable and the service was friendly.

The caipirinha was spot on. I ended up hanging out at the bar for a while, it&rsquo;s a really chill vibe. Solid place to grab a drink and a bite.
